Dr. Seuss
My Type III has Dr Seuss like imagery. I was surfing the web, trying to find images to help me imitate his drawing style. I found this.
Yes.

Disastrous photos on PsD
http://photoshopdisasters.blogspot.com/
My brother sent me a link to this site. He made me promise to never do this when I "become a big famous graphic design artist." So that's my new goal in life. I don't care if my designs are well known; I just want to make sure that none of them show up on this site.

The Font Bureau, Inc.
So while I was wasting time on the Internet, not working on Type homework like I was supposed to, I stumbled across the website The Font Bureau, Inc. You can choose a font from their drop down menu on the left side and and it will show you a brief history of the font, what type of media they recommend using that font for (magazine, etc.), the different styles, the characters, and a few real-life examples of how the font has been used. Some of the examples are rather horrendous... They focus mainly on fonts that are popular for magazines and newspapers. They also have a decent blog.
Why, AARP, why? Your type looks so... uncomfortable... especially the L's on "Belly Bulge." Hurk.

PostSecret
Here's a nifty site I found:
http://postsecret.blogspot.com/
Apparently people mail in a secret on a homemade postcard. Some of them show a pretty good relationship between type and image.
