Out of the Blue

We had a rare server outage for yesterday, unfortunately it occurred during one of those rare stints when Frans (who is far less of a monkey about these things than I am) was unchained from his computer so it went on a few hours longer than it needed to, sorry about that.

The dance thing yesterday wasn't as torturous as I imagined. I guess it would have been hard to live up to my dread--that's part of the benefit of fearing the worst. I had completely forgotten the a fail-safe bit of entertainment one can always count on from these things... I have one word for you: Danskin.

Finally, today is Saint Patrick's Day, one of those annual celebrations that's often accompanied by the raising of a glass or two -- please be careful out there on the roads, as this always increases the chances of tragedy (I saw some of our fine New York State Troopers doing random intoxication tests on a nearby route last night to deter this). But of course, if you are celebrating, have a great time. Erin Go Bragh! (Whatever that means.)

Play Time: FLOW. Flash required. Thanks Sharon.
Link of the Day: LDN DOOM Miniatures. I have some of these, and now this has me thinking about trying to paint them (though I would make the demons pink).

Aye. My family hails from County Fermanagh, so you who have issue with Northern Ireland, shove it!

Watch Braveheart. Now, imagine if it were Northern Ireland and not Scotland. Ayy, not so clear-cut anymore, is it?

Oddly, even though Prima Nocte didn't really exist, it's been used in Northern Ireland in a different way; the Brits shipping over Scots and English to supplant the native Irish population and religion. Ah well.

Unfortunately, it's gotten so bad that even the Republic doesn't care much for Ulster anymore. Damned bloody shame, what the Brits have done.
