"Paddle faster, honey, I'm trolling in shallower water now!" You can't get sued for it ;) The US has a law here that states a parody of something isn't a rip off. which I think was one of the better laws made. That's how Dennis Leary got away with the "Peanuts and Charlie Brown" thing he did without permission since it was a parody. Besides, Visa probably runs BSD on their servers anyway lol. Someone said something or other about me and FreeBSD as a rockstar and said Def Leopard. I don't agree, I think FreeBSD would be more suited with Cannibal Corpse or Slayer, it's way fast ;)
