[gentoo-dev] LARRY THE COW WILL DESTROY YU!!!

[nbecke1 <nbecke1@umbc.edu>]

Dear kind folks at gentoo linux,

Hello. My name is nick becker. I have never used your distro but i have heard 
many good things about it and may try it some day. That aside, my email has 
nothing to do with such matters, well only tangentally. The point i'm trying 
to make here is that "Larry The Cow" is a comic that i've been drawing for 
years. YEARS. I have a webpage at http://userpages.umbc.edu/~nbecke1/larry/ 
(actually just like a reconstruction of it from another site from a long time 
ago with out of date email addresses and such) that was updated last probably 
before your distro ever even had its first release (too lazy to do the actual 
research). They have copies of a larry zine i made for free distrobution at 
Black Planet Radical Books in Fells Point in Baltimore. etc. etc. etc. The 
point is, um, i dont know. I kind of want to be like, be really mean and start 
some crusade to shut you down for using Larry (it is even crudely drawn, like 
my larry, and has horns, which would actually make it a bull, not a cow) but i 
can't say that i really care that much. I just think it'd be fun to crusade. 
Anyway, shit, i dont know, it's wierd. Really really wierd. I don't think i 
like it, only becuase once you guys get more popular computer nerds will start 
thinking i named my comic after your distro, which i didn't.  (and of course i 
doubt you ever saw my comic or named larry after it, so i'm not accusing you 
of intentially stealing my ideas) I'm not saying like, change it or i'll sue 
you, but just like, i dont know, whatever. It's wierd. I really need to 
update/make a new page for larry. Anyway, that's that.

- nick
