Type-O
Here's something you can type into your computer -- the honorable Sumo. I came up with this a while back, experimenting with the keyboard. I used to do lettering by hand, using rapidographs, ellipse templates and french curves. It was critical that the shapes of the letters be exactly right, and the work was very detailed and precise. Now there's no reason to letter anything by hand, not with one of these new-fangled computers. It's just as well, I can't see as well as I used to. I often have to use those stupid drugstore reading glasses anyway. I also have a pair of regular prescription glasses that don't help me see anything anymore. They do serve to make me look like Harry S Truman or someone, or that's what I think when I catch my reflection someplace. Life goes on.
