“Writing quotes is therapy for my damaged brain.”
Steven Magee

Aegelis
“For me, there shall be one font, and one font there shall be for me, and that font is Arial. Do not try to default my document or spreadsheet to a different font, for I will notice, and I will change it back to Arial. Send me anything else, and I will change it to Arial as well. Be it for real science or fiction, as the letters and numbers rise upon my page, we will have unity within and amoung all files I produce. Never shall I yield, I stand upon my words!”
Aegelis
