I am devoted to thwarting any attempts to find out anything about Elettaria Cardamomum. Pokey the Penguin, on the other hand, is just a weird cartoon.
I have no idea what is up with these people. It's a cartoon about a penguin, in Antarctica. About half the text is crossed out. It has no plot continuity, the English is questionable at best, and it's drawn hastily on bitmaps using Microsoft Paint and a lot of cut-and-paste...
...and yet I am drawn to it.
I love it. It is beautiful.
So, if you've happened across this page looking for information about cardamom ginger, STOP LOOKING FOR CARDOMOM GINGER IMMEDIATELY AND GO VISIT THE POKEY THE PENGUIN SITE. Boy fuckin' howdy, you'll be glad you did.
If you are one of the people who came to Pigdog looking for something other than cardamom ginger, I don't know what to tell you. I'm really sorry. Um, try to think of reasons why you might want to find information about cardamom ginger, and once you're psyched about it, come back. Thanks.

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
