FAC: The Era of the Logo
First, I'd like to thank Jared Sinclair for the inspiring new logo for the Friday Afternoon Confessional. He is a true artist, in every sense of the word. Now, on to the confessions:
I have a detailed, workable plan for getting a bothersome coworker fired.
A high school-aged girl came into the office wearing a Bush-Cheney shirt. There were a few things that I wanted to say to her. For instance, "You can't fucking vote!" Or, "Once you get out of your little home-school bubble, you'll realize that you've been had, and you'll be, like, super-pissed!" Or, "Wear all the t-shirts you want, bitch -- Illinois goes Democrat every time!" Thing is, I was a Republican in high school, too, though I have always objected in principle to most large logos on shirts (the only exceptions being my shirt that says "Oxford University" and the one that says "Le coq sportif" with a huge rooster in a triangle). I'm lucky I didn't say any of those things, in any case, because she might have destroyed me with her Christian karate.
I constantly make suggestive remarks about Anthony's wife.
As always, absolution is available in the comment section.
UPDATE: I further confess that I will be taking this weekend off from blogging. Jared has done another great image for the Pontifical Standing Committee on Continental Philosophy in the Liturgy. That feature will be recurring soon, though for now I'm not committing to a particular day of the week or even to an every-week schedule.
