I thought you were going to be wearing a fedora and got a little excited. I guess I'm just don't have enough nerd in me. whatevs. but a purple-pie man mustache and fedora would be a stylish look, you have to say.

Glad to hear the experiment is going well. I've found that Firefox 3.6 is noticeably faster than 3.5.x in every distro I'm running.

I don't do anything hardcore, so it works pretty well for me. One downside, couldn't get it to talk to my phone--Verizon's drivers are crazy.

This is the fifth time I switched to linux. A couple times it lasted more than a year. THe problem always ended up being some work thing. Like VPN or citrix or soem hardware that would not work. This time it seems to all be working - I think I will stick with it. One thing that sucks is that firefox seems is slower than on windows or mac. Then again I was on firefox 3.6 on mac and I am on 3.5.8 on fedora.

Oysters fight backI ended up eating the oysters right from their shell but they put up a
serious fight when I was trying to kill them. Very unlike the clams
which just kind of surendered to the inevitable.
I think this might be the first time I was injured killing my food. I
guess it's only fair.

They have these razor sharp little fangs you have to rip out before eating them, but sometimes they bite before you can get them out.

Do you mean they are still alive, reach out and nick you when you pry the shells open - or did you get those cuts from sharp shell edges?

Paul, it is clear you should invest in some oyster shucking gloves. Quick search on Amazon:

yeah, oysters are tough. The oyster shuckers in new orleans wear like kevlar gloves. And put a little antibiotic ointment on that cut- they can have some icky bugs on them too.
