A Big Announcement
Linnaeus and newmarket are pleased to announce…
…the engagement of their respective keyboardists, Heidi and Josh!
The two computers joined us here at BTN for a short Q&A session following the announcement.
So, Linnaeus, what are you most looking forward to about this new arrangement?
Does this mean I get wireless Internet at home?
Well, yes, it does.
WOOHOO! So, can you get married tomorrow?
Not so fast there, buddy. I know you’re excited about getting off the dial-up, but there are other priorities. Sometime next summer, probably.
But I want it now!
Yeah, well, life’s tough. newmarket, any thoughts from your side?
Heidi’s been talking about pruning me, since she says I’m an Apple. Yeah, but I’m not that kind of apple! Stop her! She’s scaring me!
OK, settle down. She’s just joking. She’s really not that bad — matter of fact, I kind of like her.
(sniffs) OK. But no pruning, and as long as Linnaeus doesn’t try to eat me again. Can we play more piggyback instead?
Linnaeus? How about it?
Maybe. You are promising the wireless, right?
Yep. You’ll be a full partner on the network. Actually, you already are when you come to visit.
Can I come to visit more, then?
Well, you’ll have to ask Heidi about that, but I don’t think she’ll object.
In all seriousness, we’re very excited. :) Thanks to everyone who’s commented, e-mailed, and/or passed along kind words since the news started to trickle out. And yes, if you’ve got books, we’ll take ‘em.
