Do you know what's brilliant? When you bump into random people on the street who wear geek paraphernalia. Well, Damian and I were walking out of the Métro a couple of days ago and noticed some distinctive looking dolls hanging from an olive backpack.

So do I. It's the details in life that make it charming, yes?

I was riding with thewronghands back from a LinuxChix meeting once, and while we were stopped in a traffic jam we spotted a car with the license plate "APT-GET". I wish I'd had a camera.

Wow! That's even better than this SAAB I found parked outside a restaurant.

I have one of the smaller Intel Bunny Suit men, in orange.

A buddy of mine caught it at a LAN party (one of the LAN ETS parties). He didn't want it, and was more than happy to let me keep it.

Mine is from the Pentium 4 era. I don't recall what processor the card attached to him says, but I think there is a fair chance it would talk about the Pentium 4. This LAN party was 2 or 3 years ago, but the Pentium 4 was still the dominant Intel CPU at the time.
