I have one person to cook at Festivus, it would be nice if I could get one or two more.

Send me a private reply if interested.

Thanks!

So one day in the summer of 2001, Sridhar and I were sitting on the beach in St. Petersburg, FL. We were working for the same (startup) company, he was writing a desktop application and I had designed hardware and was writing firmware which communicated with the desktop program that he was writing. We had our laptops out on the beach, connected together with an Ethernet crossover cable as we developed protocol code. A HUGE pelican sailed by a few feet in front of us, his wingspan had to have been five feet. I said "That's a big ass pelican!" Sridhar turned to me, deadpan, and said "What's an ass pelican?" -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
