Dear kind folks at gentoo linux, |

Hello. My name is nick becker. I have never used your distro but i have heard |
4 |
many good things about it and may try it some day. That aside, my email has |
5 |
nothing to do with such matters, well only tangentally. The point i'm trying |
6 |
to make here is that "Larry The Cow" is a comic that i've been drawing for |
7 |
years. YEARS. I have a webpage at http://userpages.umbc.edu/~nbecke1/larry/ |
8 |
(actually just like a reconstruction of it from another site from a long time |
9 |
ago with out of date email addresses and such) that was updated last probably |
10 |
before your distro ever even had its first release (too lazy to do the actual |
11 |
research). They have copies of a larry zine i made for free distrobution at |
12 |
Black Planet Radical Books in Fells Point in Baltimore. etc. etc. etc. The |
13 |
point is, um, i dont know. I kind of want to be like, be really mean and start |
14 |
some crusade to shut you down for using Larry (it is even crudely drawn, like |
15 |
my larry, and has horns, which would actually make it a bull, not a cow) but i |
16 |
can't say that i really care that much. I just think it'd be fun to crusade. |
17 |
Anyway, shit, i dont know, it's wierd. Really really wierd. I don't think i |
18 |
like it, only becuase once you guys get more popular computer nerds will start |
19 |
thinking i named my comic after your distro, which i didn't. (and of course i |
20 |
doubt you ever saw my comic or named larry after it, so i'm not accusing you |
21 |
of intentially stealing my ideas) I'm not saying like, change it or i'll sue |
22 |
you, but just like, i dont know, whatever. It's wierd. I really need to |
23 |
update/make a new page for larry. Anyway, that's that. |
