Its my GNU/Birthday
Well, now I’m 17, w00t. As birthday presents, I had a fsf membership and a nice gnu-friendly hp printer. The printer works out of the box, which is really great, and has really quite nice print quality too. I also got a new mouse (the old one was clicking more than one button at once) and a microphone headset, which I will hopefully be using to record a podcast.
Most of the above isn’t really blog worthy (or at least no more than the stuff I keep on not getting round to blogging), but the thing I really wanted to mention is my cake. Yep, that’s right, my Mum made me a GNU/Cake for my birthday. It really looks like a GNU, (especially the baby gnu that it is modelled after) and is also twice as high as a normal cake (yum yum).
I think GNU/Cake is the natural porgression from the tux cake I had last year. Question is, what will I have next year, a bsd daemon to complete the collection?

Your mom is awesome.
Happy birthday!
I love how the cake looks, very cute.. and must be very yummy too.
Enjoy!

Ha, our podcast is going to rock. Especially with me doing the intro music. That will, quite literally, rock. The reason for this is that I will use an electric guitar, which has conotations with rock music. So yeh, rock.
You’ve dissapeared now, but I need help with Newton-Raphson. After that, we can discuss all things PODCAST/ROCK. Perhaps we could make some notes this week, possibly at ADFA. That would be a cool thing to do, would be like a proper meeting with stuff going on. Then we can record the podcast this week!
Rock.
