From the bowels of the internet, I arise
So, I realize it's been 6 months since I put anything on here. In all fairness, I tweet a lot and that goes onto facebook so you've gotten more JoeBuck than you likely want.
But, I have something that is more "blog appropriate" and I'd like your input.
I'm working on an idea for my first tattoo. I'm going to get an abridged family tree, but in hex. So here's the text version:
Ervin Doris
Brad Bonnie
Steve Dawn
Melissa
and in hex:
45 72 76 69 6E 20
44 6F 72 69 73 0A
42 72 61 64 20 42
6F 6E 6E 69 65 0A
53 74 65 76 65 20
44 61 77 6E 0A 4D
65 6C 69 73 73 61
0A
The question is, what font do I go with? I'm thinking something "terminal"-ish.
Discuss.

Cute, so if you ever come down with a case of amnesia and are found stark naked in the woods by Steve Wozniak he could get you back home safely. Might want to throw a last name in there.
