Serifs of God
My font has changed, and I don't know why. I'm not even certain what font the blog was in before, but now it appears to be in Courier or Courier New.
Any ideas?

About Me
- Name: Dave
- Location: Chicago, Illinois, United States
Do you know me? Read one of my stories. Will you know me then? I have blue eyes, but sometimes they are green. Does this help? I am older than The Electric Company but younger than Sesame Street. Have you figured it out yet?

It does not look like courier to me at all. You are weird.
(and jealous of my copies of Magic for Beginners)
Looks fine from here.
Chance, you're right on both counts.
I don't know. It's changed, but I don't know how, and I don't know enough about typefaces to say what I'm seeing.
Guess I'll just live with it.
Here's what I'm seeing on my Windows box at work.
Windows seems to think it's Times New Roman, which is what I've got as my default serif font in Firefox.
Is that what you're getting? Or is the problem maybe on your end?
Very interesting . . . that's not what I'm getting at all. Either it's my computer or it's Explorer. (Yes, I'm still using Explorer.)
I'll try clearing my cache and see if that has any effect.

It didn't.
I first noticed this after I posted the bit about Godzilla's wedding. That post showed up in Courier, while the rest of the posts were in the same old font (Times New Roman, I guess). It's been gradually taking over the blog.
I've gone insane, haven't I?
