We're a handful of days past the end of the lockout, and things are starting to settle down, just a bit. The number of links has tapered off a bit, leaving us with just enough to help you get through the morning without doing any actual work. Just don't tell the boss it was us, as they are probably busy reading the Walk and don't want to be disturbed.
We are here to entertain you. If we do that, we consider it a win, even if it is only a half dozen of you. No one will stop us from being the snarky, bitter jerks you have come to expect. Not even those who might feign power. We have no time for King Nothings. Back to the game.
Another note - starting tomorrow, and running through Sunday, I will be sitting on a giant sheet of ice, attempting to pull defenseless fish through a hole in the ice. Most likely, the attempt will be feeble. While I am gone, the Walk will be handled by other members of the HW staff. You will be in good hands. Enjoy the rest of your week, and we will talk on Monday.
Onto the links!
