    Today’s picture: Nuts the Secret Ninja Squirrel

    Thursday, March 11th, 2010

    If you’ve read my blog at all, you know that I have a friend named Nuts. He’s a secret ninja squirrel. We’ve been together for the last 3 1/2 years ever since we linked up in Iraq, and we’ve formed a somewhat beneficial bond: I put a roof over his head, he fights international terrorists.  It really does work quite well.  Knowing that, and the fact that we haven’t had a good picture of him lately (he comes and goes so much), I decided that my picture today on my test run of a 365 would focus on him, properly.  I have a long weekend coming up, and it just so happens that he’s coming along for the ride.  Perhaps we’ll see more of him next week.  On a side note, don’t expect anything else from me at least until Monday.

    I’m now on Twitter. So is Nuts.

    Just a heads up, you can now keep up with my exploits on Twitter by following @Vorpahl. I’ll warn you, it isn’t just exclusive to photography and I have a weird sense of humor some times, but it is there nonetheless. I keep it updated pretty regularly.

    Also, Nuts the Secret Ninja Squirrel, being the copycapt that he is, is also now on Twitter. I really have no idea why he needs to be on there as most of his stuff is supposed to be “secret”, but he couldn’t keep himself away from the microblogging community anymore. Follow him here: @NutstheNinja. I apologize if he doesn’t make any sense since he is, in fact, a squirrel.
