Used in the right way, I absolutely love this type font.
Granted it's not quite consistent across the full 'A-Z' spectrum, but some of the letters (see examples below) totally captivate me.
Any takers for having a guess on what it is? ;)

BLOG ETHOS
1. Everything is cultural (nothing can step outside of cultural representation)
2. Culture is the richest repository of innovation and brand development ideas
3. Inspiration exists in everything (cf. Paul Smith)
4. Branding is an art (but science can help)
5. Strategy cannot be divorced from execution (overlook design at your peril)
6. Complex problems have simple, easy to understand, wrong answers (cf. HL Mencken)
7. Diversity and inconsistency keeps life interesting for people (thus everything about this blog is subject to change)

I posted the article because I felt a good discussion about it was called for. As you will note at the intro, I cut out several paragraphs that I felt were over the top and not substantiated, and some images that were not originals and could not be sourced.

It's more important to enjoy the game and get stronger from sports than to perform well in them.
