Alright ... maybe that's not such a good idea, but we could > call > him "Bert"! I'd prefer a dove. Or a budgie. Pigeons are flying vermin. Except that one from the whacky-races spin-off. In fact, we'd then get a theme tune: http://tv.cream.org/themes/stopthepigeon.mp3 (1.1Mb MP3) Not a bad idea. > Or maybe a dragon? We could call him "Trogdor"! > http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail58.html That rules. I particularly like the arm. But he needs sneakers like beastie. If I had a call, I'd say we should get a polar bear as a mascot. Polar bears are cool: http://www.iconoplex.co.uk/bears.jpg Or perhaps Jennifer Aniston. I'm sure she won't mind if we make her official mascot. And I bet she can do some mean kernel debugging in her spare time. Maybe too ambitious. Aim lower. How about the guy who played Sam in "Cheers"? He's available. He was in that really bad film with Tom Hanks though. Not the type to be seen hanging around BSDcon either... Geez, I need to get on with work.... -- Paul Robinson
