I am so crazy about this picture. I just love his (her?) determined expression. (I never knew that penguins could look so purposeful!) I’ve been wearing this expression all week. It looks better on a penguin, to be honest. And since you can’t caption me, you absolutely should caption this!
My name is Judy Clement Wall. I write, and here in Zebra Sounds, I write about living creatively and reading books and hula-hooping in public and hiking on (and wandering off of) trails... especially north bound trails. Occasionally I share my unbridled enthusiasm for cheesecake. (But only occasionally. I promise.)
I write about the intersection of love and everything else at aHumanThing.net

“Okay… Leap and the net will appear… Leap and the net will appear.”
I have wings… I can fly!
I got nothin for this one….
except maybe:
“Ok everybody, watch. It goes like this… step, tap, step, step, tap, jazz hands! All together now’”
Thanks a lot Becky, I am going to be standing in line at Starbucks doing Fosse’s “All That Jazz” in about 10 minutes!
You’re welcome. I was a stand up comic for a few years and did a routine in Starbucks. If you sing in there, they give you free coffee — I promise, trust me, go ahead sing.
Whaddya mean you ate the last peanut butter cup??
“Wait. They said the coffee was over here! Damn it, I can’t do anything until I have had my coffee.”
I challenge Thee to a Dual!
Penguin loses her religion – leap of faith not!
You jump, I jump – was that what I said? Maybe it was you jump and I’ll think about jumping or you jump and I’ll wait till you get back?

Jazz hands!!!
How in the hell does she expect me to take care of an egg this size?
For some reason, Edgar’s Kung Fu, which was supposedly “Crane Style” always resembled “Penguin Style” and seemed less than intimidating.
[Announcer voice] “And here we see Pete, the first penguin to compete in the Olympic games, performing his pre-visualization before his run on the SnowCross course…”
becky: “jazz hands” – ha! :-D
“Penguins are supposed to love the snow and cold” my ass. My feet are freezing.
“Oh yeah, Right! It said ‘Relieves constipation overnight,’ on the package. I’m soooo writing them a letter!”
what you call determination…..

– If Andy Rooney were a penguin (yes, that would be an eyebrow joke)
– ” A little less intensity, its meant to be more humorous” the Director yelled up to Jane during her rehearsal of the “My Angry Vagina” monologue at the Arctic Theatre.
– While the other participants in SeaWorld’s Happy Feet Penguin Matinee fled in horror, Rocko, Tilikum’s best friend, stayed yelling “No. Stop! Tilikum stop! Ohhh, bad killer whale”
– After listening to R Kelley’s “I Believe I Can Fly” song for three days in a row Burt was ready for the attempt!
This tuxedo gives me a wedgie.
In the hopes of growing up to be a real eagle, Penelope practices her mountain top, prey-spying scowl.
Well, the camera is ok ~ but the photographer is going to have a long climb back up
Hey, guys ~ I think I can see those dudes from last weeks pic ~ impressive trident!

Dusting off her cape, feet planted firmly apart, Superhero J in all her sparkly awesomeness looked directly at the little man in front of her and smote him with her deadly laser eyes!
“Woah! Check out the fins on her! Hey fellas, come and get a load of this?!”
penguin : “I’m the King of the world”
penguin in back: “someone has to tell Burt to stop watching Titanic!”

“Part! Part, I command thee. PART!” — penguin staring at the sea with a Moses Complex!
“I am penguin, hear me… um… squawk?”
