The Yahoo News article link below reports how changing to Garamond Font will save the Federal Government $136,000,000 (that’s 136 Million Dollars) a year in ink costs. It appears that, now that our Federal Government has become aware of this easy-as-pie way to to save $136,000,000, it has strangely decided not save this $136,000,000.
It seems that the D.C. Bureaucrat who is in charge of rejecting brilliant money saving ideas has said nyeht (a lot of bureaucrats have started using Russian just in case the rumor that Putin is going to be elected our next president turns out to be true).
Also the article goes on to tell us that, if all state governments changed to Garamond Font, their total savings would be $234,000,000 a year.
Benjamin Franklin, (A Penny Saved Is A Penny Earned) is turning over in his grave... 
There are reports that the original designer of the Garamond Font Typeface, Mr. Claude Garamond, is pretty dizzy himself... 
Yes I did change the font in this blog posting and will change it for all future Foolishness...Or Is Its? to Garamond because, based on the amount of times America prints out my blog postings, they will easily save $1.89 per year in printer ink costs.
Do I see you laughing at me? Hey, mister jolly person, that’s a lot more than a penny.
Would I kid u?
