New Home Away from Home
Too busy to sin. Sort of.
Come Join us at Fat Jerry!
Right now I'm busy setting up a new community blog to replace an old community blog, so I'm not quite around as much as I was. Never fear. Sinner of the Day will return, just not tomorrow.And if you like sharing random links and debating the latest headlines with funny irreverent people who spend way too much time at the movies, reading in their hammocks, and consuming ungodly amounts of gin, join us.
At least I don't have to shovel
Sinner of the Day #216Ah yesterday was beautiful, wasn't it? But now it is the day after the blizzard. Slush puddles at every crosswalk. I've fallen on my ass three times and I have a painful dark lump on my backside. Don't let appearances deceive you: snow is the blackest of evils.
The Blizzard of ... 2005. Add one year and 20 inches.
Swing!
Sinner of the Day #215Apologies for the delays and absences of late: owing to outsourcing (India) at mycompany, we are getting laid off, all of us or most of us, the news changes every day. The severance package looks better every day too! Nonetheless, even as I muse over months of paid vacation, I feel I ought to attempt anyway to retain employment, or at least make money on overtime, so I've not had as much time.
Anyway, to today's sinner: Mr. Humboldt. You are very cute and are probably capable of seducing suitors of all sorts. Well, of all penguin sorts--you're not...
