Friends don’t let friends use Papryus.

At least they are not using Comic Sans. That would get a wicked visceral reaction!

Off to Penguicon

I’ll be helping out the Ohio Linuxfest guys with publicity, so I’ll be busy all weekend. Will be offline most of the time, but will be fully back in the saddle this Monday. In the meantime, enjoy this light-hearted theme from Disney’s Robin Hood.

I think that Lelouch [...]
