“Onward!” is one of my stock sayings, usually tongue-0in-cheek when beginning a trip or new venture. So when I saw this poster, it absolutely slew me: > **[Onward! Art Print by Jay Fleck](https://society6.com/product/onward-t31_print#s6-529109p4a1v45)** > > Buy Onward! Art Print by Jay Fleck. Worldwide shipping available at Society6.com. Just one of millions of high quality products available. I don’t know if it’s just the idea of a Giraffe Riding a shark, or the fact that the Giraffe is not only pointing a cutlass, but is also wearing an eyepatch. I’m gonna have to get this, or a T-shirt with it. Edited to add: He also has this similar Christmas poster. The Artist is Jay Fleck > **[Merry Christmas | Jay Fleck](https://www.jayfleck.com/jayfleck/merry-christmas/)** ---

Bodacious! I tried adding “Excelsior!” to my vocabulary, but it didn’t ring true. I’m no Stan Lee. I do say “Adventure!” daily. Most often at the start of the day or when a job that no one wants to do comes up. I probably give off too much of a [Flapjack](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAN62fX6zOM) vibe without the phrase, but there’s nothing I can do about that. Nothing! Oh well, I’ve got some horrible jobs to do around the house that have put off too long already. Adventure!
