I've been looking for a co-author who's qualified
So if you think that you're the one step up to my side
I'm a fine-tuned supersonic research machine
With a huge database and a gangster CV

Rihanna would be confused. :o) I love it!
ReplyDeleteI prefer Times New Roman 12 (serif font all the way, baby!), but otherwise, Bravo!
ReplyDeleteReally?! Judging by your posts I would have pegged you for a Courier. Goes to show you can't judge a writer by hir font. (For me, it's Palatino.)
DeleteAnd a big "well done!" for you, MA&M :)
Times New Roman 12 represent up in here!
DeleteHolla!
@Edna--I'm not *that* old (or that hipsterishly retro -- definitely not that hipsterishly retro)! But my diss *was* (is) in Courier, mostly because I started (and finished) it in Wordstar, and switching to a proportionally-spaced font would have added another week to the 12 or so years I took to finish (I was using Word, and TNR, for other things by then). Okay, maybe I am pretty old. After all, I learned to type on a typewriter (one of my parents' manual portables, but they bought me an electric for 8th-grade graduation).
DeleteActually I like TNR 12 but that didn't work in the lyrics. (I also increase the page size to 125% so I can read it!)
DeleteThanks for the kind words. Writing it was fun and it helped me put off doing work for awhile. 8-)
If you imagine Isaac Hayes singing this, it's pretty hot.
ReplyDeleteNice work MA&M!
LOVE. IT.
ReplyDeleteAnd I will be writing this summer, goddamnit, if it kills me.
