News of the Weak!
Hiya. Sometimes, when I’m feeling especially silly or happy or excited of a Friday afternoon, I’ll put up a little bit of something fun. My current feelings include none of the above (I would say my predominant mood just now is phlegmmy), but I thought you (I) could use a boost anyway.
Here’s Rowan Atkinson, one of my favorite comics, doing one of my all-time favorite bits, circa 1986-ish. Have a good weekend, all!

Reminder: Fox and the Whale
My friends, I have never done this before, and I’m not likely to do it again. But today’s beautiful thing is among the most beautiful I’ve ever found, yet it’s woefully under-loved.
To those of you who looked at it and though “12 minutes? No way!” I beg you to reconsider. It will be 12 minutes you won’t want to get back. I promise. Give it a try. Enjoy 12 minutes of peace. How rare is that these days?

If you like this (and I’m sure you will), here’s the post I wrote about him in 2014:

Technical Difficulties (Please Stand By)
Sorry, folks. I just came back to my desk to discover that an unfinished post I thought I’d saved last night as a draft was instead scheduled to publish, not once but twice three times (and counting). I feel like I just left the bathroom with my skirt tucked into my underwear . . .
Anyway, here’s a joke.
