Type Means Never Having To Say You're Sorry
About "Type Means Never Having To Say You're Sorry" by Jessica Helfand
Many students have used Futura for books (and any typographic exercises) with diverse contents. (cook books, commercail books, how-to books, and so on) For a question "Why? Why did you use Futura?", people answered: "I liked how modern it was.", "I just kind of liked it." If you use a type face for designing something, you need to have reasonable explains behind it.

Stan
Stan was walking his dog "Nutter Butter" in the Morningside park. He repares televisions. He is an electronic engineer. Stan lives a couple blocks away from the park. His dog, Nutter Butter is a six-year-old male pomeranian. I asked Stan if it is a real name, then he showed me Nutter Butter's name pendant. He did not let me take his picture because he does not want his picture in a magazine or a news paper.
