Being a hobbyist

October 11, 2000 by Michael Boyle

font designer myself (though mostly lapsed – I haven’t made a new one in over 2 yrs). I was really pleased to see Lines & Splines. [I got here via kottke.org]

It’s simply too nice

May 7, 2000 by Michael Boyle

to be doing much blogging these days – at least on weekends. Yesterday was “walk all over the mountain” day, today was the first of this season’s regular Sunday pickup soccer games in Parc Lafontaine. We’ve been doing this hack soccer game for about 6 years now, and last year we merged two similar games and it’s even more viable than ever. By “hack” I mean that in true Montreal tradition, most people are exorcising some weekend-induced chemical imbalances during the game, so it’s pretty uneven. Some clean-living folks are giving it everything they’ve got, others are just trying to survive and sweat out some of the weekend’s consumption of booze.
