Summer has yet to officially arrive, but there is this feeling coursing through my veins, telling me that this summer is going to be a summer to remember. That I’m going to look back on the summer of ‘08 with the same nostalgic feeling I have when I think back to the summers of ‘03 and ‘04 - back when the nights never ended.

2004.
The shattered glass glittered everywhere like stars. We laughed as we tilted our heads back and threw more. Cars drove down Glisan, swerving and honking, but we kept throwing.

The Font Game.
A game based on typography that I can play on my iPhone? Dare I saw this is… fontastic? Yeah, I went there.
