6:30 game, conf. etc.

More unrelated stuff.

TBS and TN at, of course, Yankee Stadium. Westerbrook and Clemens.

My high expectations for Helvetica are what caused me, I think, to be slightly disappointed. One designer said that Helvetica (representing the establishment) was related to the wars in Vietnam and Iraq. Another designer said Helvetica represents socialism. Another said it represents the corporate world. So, it means different things to different people, radically different things. I like the order and beautify of the type. But, in contract, there is a place in the world for a less orderly type what one designer called grunge type. We need both kinds of type or should I saw all kinds of type.

Mi Puebla versus El Grand Rodeo. Oy! They are both so good. Chille rellenos at both are excellent. The chips and salsa at Mi Puebla are slightly better and there is a green salsa as well as a red salsa. The first batch of red salsa we got was hotter than the second batch, which I found interesting. The atmosphere at the two places is quite different, to say the least.

Whole Foods seems to have an endless variety of salads, all excellent. The mediterranean one with feta, artichokes, and olives was especially good.

"Sacha on a Mac with her immediate family in the corner" looks better than the last time I tried.

Maybe Sacha should try for a white background (but no light fixture) next time.

Don't you mean, "Sac on a Mac?"
