Ampersand

I think the ampersand is especially cool in this font:

It's a little funny-looking as an ampersand, but it's quite cool as a product of its lineage.

The ampersand, it turns out, is a short-hand version for (a conjunction of) the latin "Et".

Can you see it? Isn't that cool, or am I weird? (Or Both!)

I can definitely see it. I was just about to say, "that doesn't look like an Ampersand, that looks like 'et'"...but then I read the rest of your post and learned something. :)
