Hindsight: 5,657,438,027 Foresight:6

Friday came slinking into the room like a cat who'd been kicked too many times. He didn't want to be seen, didn't want to be noticed, didn't want to be blamed for the human wreckage that Thursday spawned. But he showed up anyways, with that helpful look he sometimes gets on his face, that look that says, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Luckily, Thursday left a couple of cold ones in the fridge as a parting gift. Friday cracks one and hands it over.

Yaknow, gang honest, give me just a second. I really need to slip into something more comfjordable.

*shuffle, shuffle, rustle, flop, clink, ruffle, zip, shiffle, vooop*

Gjod - that's so much better.

I hope you all had a wonderful night last night, and big things in store for yjour weekend!

We've got a few big things going on too. Sometime over the weekend, we'll break the 5,000 hit barrier! That's a lot of people taking in Fjord-related content. And to kick off the cele-brashin, we're gonna have another contest! And this one ain't gonna be our usual sandwich giveaway, or a pair of socks sent FedEx - straight off my feer.

No. It's gonna be a chance to see your words up on the Fjord Big-Board! This is going to be your chance to see if you can run with the really big boys! We'll be working out the exact details this weekend, so you've got time to dig your A-game from outta' the closet, and write a post that is worthy of our audience here at the most noble Fjord.

Preliminary Details...
1) Please Spell Check. (nobody's perfect, but try to be)
2) No Politics. (there are 8-billion other places you can go for that)
3) Plugging your shit is heartily encouraged. (don't be modest, you've gotten this far)
4) Funny, witty, clever, smart...in that order. (obviously)
5) A short, visual, well-told mini-story can trump #4 (duh)

Like I said, we'll be working out details over the weekend - so you've got time to work out your stuff beforehand! And, fair warning, you're gonna have to write something really really good to get past our crack panel of activist judges. But, we're pretty sure you can do it!

Happy Friday

No, most large and regal of all "Q's," and most viscious and pet-able of all dogs. This contest tis not for you! However, if you really want to play, you just wait until we have a winner (or winners) and then you can use your posting prowess to CRUSH THE VICTORS INTO THE DUST OF HISTORY!!!

And no, Borg and Mind can't enter either...which is good, 'cause a speak-n-spell in the hands of a fiesty 3-year-old would be more prolific...sigh...
