And yes, Im the Associate Art Director at I.D magazine. Is your gf a designer too?

Yeah, she's a self-employed graphic designer, and she happens to be a big fan of your magazine. I actually found it lying around on the weekend and ended up reading the article on Mizrahi. She designs a magazine herself; one called Beyond Magazine. It's a small, ads-free/subscription-based publication that should be coming out four times a year once they get up to speed. I'll point you to the website for her company and her gallery/studio/bookstore in downtown Calgary, incase you're curious (or if you want to do a feature on her in I.D! then she can never bug me about spending too much time on calgarypuck again!):

hmmm vangool, that definitely sounds familiar. i must have come across it back home somewhere. what is your girlfriends name? perhaps i know her.
that bookstore looks really nice as well. Calgary definitely could use more of these small boutique multipurpose establishments, they just ad an interesting layer of life to a city. Ive always thought what Calgary needs is a really good dedicated-design store, where people could buy all the latest and greatest in well thought out products (not unlike Moss here in New York,
www.mossonline.com ). With the amount of money in that city, i think it could easily support it.
