Penguins. Why? Well, that's a funny story actually. I was wandering through Wal-Mart and penguins suddenly leapt into my mind. Why, I don't know, as I was picking out candy at the time, but penguins it was. And I realized the wonderful thing about blogs- that I can blather on and on about any random topic that comes to my mind, and you people listen to it. Heh heh.



So. Penguins. There are seventeen varieties, and one of my many useless talents is naming all of them. Many thanks to Spin for instilling the penguin song into my head during elementary school; apparently it never left. Actually, now that I think about it, penguins were an integral part of my early life. I wrote stories about penguins- a Little Blue and a Rockhopper, now nameless.

And then, of course, there was Scamper. If I close my eyes, I can hear that song, too- "Scamper, the penguin, the most curious one of all..." Not exactly Disney caliber, but I think there was a lesson about environmentalism in there somewhere. The penguins do bring me to a point, though. Not that my formative years were spent in front of the TV learning quasi-liberal lessons, but that I do not hate all birds. I like penguins! After all, penguins are cute and cuddly...and they only live in the Southern Hemisphere. You can see them at the zoo, but nowhere else. With all those advantages, how can I not say- gooooo, penguins!
