syntax is everything. We should call him struct. Or compromise and call him
stru[c]t. Might give the wrong impression, you know, sticking the head in
the sand and all that. Perhaps suitable only for core. H0h0h0h0h0!

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:

Not a bad idea.

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....
