I am the Manguin
I am the Manguin - a title given to me by a friend who while watching the documentary, The March of the Penguins, saw a scene where the half-starved male penguins were returning to the ocean to feed and were stopped by a gap in the ice that ran across their path. They milled around wasting time until one stepped to the front and leaped into the gap. "That penguin is like Manker" he said. "It's like a manly penguin. It's a Man-guin!" He said it reminded him of me because I don't let obstacles stop me and I forge ahead. Hence the birth of the Manguin. Now that I am heading to Antarctica I thought it made an obvious title for this blog.

Mr. Soozie B here. I would imagine that the penguins on the shore were quite excited when they realized that The Manguin was actually on the passing vessel. Probably most of them thought that the Manguin was a legend or myth. Keep up the good work, and Merry Christmas!
