Is this a good idea for a home page?!

In fact, it's the epitome of a home page. ROTFLMAO!

I like it. But wouldn't Oscar the Grouch not like type?

And why is Bruce Willis not wearing the shirt?

And when do I get mine?

So many questions.

All pics are eligable Yves: I would love to see you thrashing it out wearin' yo' colours and giving mad props to yo' peeps!

Thanks for the alteration Grant! I'm just going to have to make that one day!

kris.

Thanks for the shirts (and the book and the contest in the first place). Here's me:

Bruce Willis's cut is Bruce Old Style, of course.

Hey Kris, I just realized that 'klim' is a unidirectional palindrome of 'milk'. And I like milk, too. Erm... no real point to mentioning this, I suppose.

Sorry.

Ha! Grant, you are the first one to get that without me prompting! That is actually how the name came about. For a while I was into rerversing words in order to find new ones, to see what happened. One day I reversed milk and out popped klim. this is the true beginning of the name Klim. It took me a while to get used to the idea that it is completely valid to make a word up and start to use it (Hrant does it all the time). This was confirmed by a spread in 'the art of looking sideways' that had the word ZAUM across it, zaum being the trans-rational poetic language that the Russian avant-garde 'invented', they dealt with words by their sound and their visual presence, not really by their meaning. I was comforted by this, thus Klim was borne. I initially used it in (unoficially) some school projects and thought of dropping later on. My friends balked at this and said 'no, klim is you, you have to keep it.' So I did.

Ahh, the mystery has been revealed.

Well, thats what I would refer to as a fabulous story beyond a name..

Got Klim?

:-)

or maybe that should be "klim tog" :-)

you first, joe.

Klim was a powdered milk available to PoWs in Germany during WWII and the tins were used to make tools and air hoses for the Great Escape etc.

Kris, time to change the name to Reeb!

Ok, enough of this frivolousness... Here's a pic of yours truly.

I'm kickin' it vintage with last year's shirt & the shortie.



Yes, that is baby drool above the p in phile.

Crumbs, that is rather fascinating! Thanks for this info and pics, guys.

Tog Klim indeed�

'Ok, enough of this frivolousness' says he with a camera pointing at himself all day long! LOL!

Gotta love those baby cheeks John. You look like you are in heaven :-)

Hah, new defintion of Klim: dairy product coming out backwards from a baby.

Most definately! I don't know how I could 'spin' that, though.

I just remembered what lead to reversing milk to get klim. It was while I was making this that I wrote milk, then reversed it. Funny how these things happen. I really should get BitFonter and finish the font.

Joe, are you outside The Little Mermaid in that pic?

Looks familiar.

> Eligible pics are of you, your friend(s)
> and/or pet(s) wearing a Typophile tee.

Define "friend".

Hrant, I always knew you were in with the stuffed shirts!

> is that friend of yours registered to vote in Ohio or Florida?

No, but I think if he were Republican they'd look the other way in Florida.
