wanted

a font.

i've been creating office documents for a while (mail in entourage, posters in ppt, files in word and excel) and i still haven't found what i'm looking for - a font that i am happy to devote an entire document to - no questions, no apprehensions. i'm not that picky, i want something quite average - nothing too flashy, not too squiggly-wiggly, not too broad or bold, not too tall, not too thin. in fact, i want a font that defines average in every way. but these folks were too good for all that. they don't have a single font that fits the bill. and i've looked through hundreds.

(grumble wumble)

if you think you have the answer to my troubles, will you please let me know?

i believe that everything looks more beautiful without caps.

unfortunately, on entourage, the letters get capitalized automatically. but at all other times, i ignore the key :).

though i just used it for the smiley, fool!
