A veritable smorgasbord of posting

Lots of random stuff today:

I don't normally link directly to my friend's blogs. I find them to be either way too emo (Jacob), incredibly nerdy (Emeric), or just plain worthless (Rob). But Scotty has had some particularly good stuff up lately, and his account of flying over the weekend is not to be missed.

I got a haircut on Monday. I have a big presentation next week, so I needed to look professional. It's shorter than it has been for a long time. I might admit it looked decent if I wasn't such a sellout.

Webcomics have increasingly become my addiction of choice, including a couple that are just too bizarre to not mention: White Ninja Comics and Dinosaur Comics. I've particularly enjoyed White Ninja Makes a Home Video and the Dinosaur Comic where the devil talked to T-Rex about the waning popularity of adventure games. Seriously, just check them out.

Call me crazy, but if I was picking the Pope, I would have gone with someone a tad younger than 78, considering the one who just passed was only 84. The newly christened Pope Benedict by all accounts seems to be in good health, but he suffered a brain hemorrhage in 1991 and seems to suffer from extreme pessimism. Apparently, one of the reasons he chose the name Benedict was because "Benedict XV, the last pope to have that name, had one of the shortest pontificates of the 20th century." Sources say, "I think he has a very keen sense that this may not be a very long pontificate and there's an awful lot to do." I give him 6 months.

Of course, if I was picking the Pope, I probably wouldn't have gone with an ultra-conservative, but I guess that's why I'm not a cardinal.

If you injured yourself while walking, it probably wouldn't be good advice to walk it off.

DuckFever is still sweeping the campus, except for a couple notable naysayers. (You have my permission and in fact my request to give them what for.) In fact, Keri and I have already decided to start The New Church of the Mighty Ducks. We don't really know what the church stands for besides having Connie Moreau and Julie "The Cat" Gaffney as symbols of the sacred feminine. We do have self-appointed positions, though. She's the High Priestess and I'm Keeper of the Cake. We told Andy to make one up and he had to go and best us all.

He's the Triple Deacon.

Brilliant.

Finally, ROBOT JOCKEYS!

Thanks for the props man, I would have left the sail plane thing up as the top article longer, but I was afraid I'd scare off the people who refuse to read anything longer than the back of a cereal box. And they're out there. So, there's a short post just above the two posts about my Chuck Yeager weekend.

Anyway, good links. And I'll second calling Emeric a nerd simply because he dissed on the Mighty Ducks. I've read his blog for a while now, but I might have to stop. That just crosses the line. I'd comment more but I'm still dead tired from my Cake concert outing last night, so for now this is all you get.

I really need to get a better title than "high priestess." It really just doesn't hold a candle to Keeper of the Cake or Triple Deacon. Besides, I feel that as the only female member of the church leadership it's going to be very hard to live up to the sacred feminine without a lame title.


Notice none of my MD crushes have been canonized yet.

Note from Rob: Immediately after calling my site "Plain Worthless" Tim launched into a paragraph about his new and incredibly interesting Haircut.

I was in a creative mood, so I created a little something for "The New Church of the Mighty Ducks". I'd describe it, but I think you had better just have a look for yourself.

Check it out here.

Yeah, enjoy that.

P.S. I now demand a special name within the NCMD, I choose to be the KnucklePope; I drive Satan crazy because I'm so unpredictable.
