Badtux the Snarky Penguin

In a time of chimpanzees, I was a penguin.

Religious fundamentalists are motivated by the sneaking suspicion that someone, somewhere, is having fun -- and that this must be stopped.

Blogroll goodness

I have now randomized my blogroll so that I can clickity click over there at random to hit random blogs of interest to me. Take that, self-important big-name bloggers!

In other meta-blogging news, I am dreading the switch to New Blogger. See, I have three strikes against me:

  1. I have my own template which is utterly different from any of the Blogger standard templates
  2. I use Blogger's own comments code, not Hellscan
  3. I use my own server for hosting, not Blogspot.
So while blogs that don't have those three strikes have moved over smoothly, I'm not so sanguine about the possibility of my own efforts being so successful :-(.

And no, I don't have enough server to run my own blogging software. My server is hard-pressed to handle, process, spam-filter, virus-scan, and discard 50 pieces of spam and viruses per minute. No, I'm not joking about how pounded I am by spammers...

Faith is jumping and learning how to fly on the way down. You'll make it back somehow.

Even if you have to have someone else host your site it won't be the end of the world, will it?
