You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I have my penguin coaster at work. It makes me laugh and makes me think of you. How is Monday?

Monday holds no terrors for the Penguin of Death.

It's been pretty good so far. I need to finish slides for the lecture I'm giving on Thursday, didn't get nearly enough done on the weekend. Still, it's coming together.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

SM2 had the Attack of the Killer Anvils that managed to take me out of the movie about 2/3s of the way through. Given the hype, I'd expected it to be better.

It's not the best comic book superhero movie ever made. Hec is wrong like a wrong thing.

For starters, KD is way more annoying than KH.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

This is good to know. Found out that JackAssCoworker is suddenly *poof* gone just as I left on Friday so I am comforted that my penguin is safe. It certainly is going to be interesting.

Is the lecture at work or outside work?

edit: "This" was Monday when I wrote it. But it is also good to know that I should lower my expectations for SM2, I enjoy bad movies more when I expect them to suck.

It's at Melbourne Uni, part of the Honours course in Actuarial Studies. I'm covering asset classes. Giving something back to the community, only without the orange jumpsuit.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Certainly wouldn't be the first time, but if you crap on my pick, you gotta put yours forward. What's better?

I've watched Too Much Racing today. I was trying to figure out who wore the orange firesuits.

Will we get a report after the talk? Will there be questions and answers? A powerpoint presentation? Echidnas?

These are all dangerous questions. Aside from the echidna one, for which I will not make you wait: [link]

This is just your default link now, isn't it?

Won't my students be surprised!

move out and draw fire

I'm so glad I'm not alone in not loving SM2. Although, I did like Molina as Doc Oc. But the guy I saw it with LURVED it, because "Kirsten Dunst is HAWT!!!1!"

I think she looks like a half-orc.

I've avoided the creepy insect talk. One of my earliest memories is staying up all night sitting on my bed with my mom, watching a ~4" scorpion on the wall over my bed, as she didn't want to go after it or take her eyes off it.

The LifeGems are twisted, and if someone could promise me that I'd be used in a Death Ray, I would become one. Maybe different people would cause different Death Ray powers? I like to think my LifeGem would zap proselytizers and Republicans, but I'd probably just zap people who own Glitter on DVD.
