I've already acquired the following: - A trademark smirk/eyebrow raise facial expression - A well-practiced maniacal cackle - Reprioritized my life: e-mail, eat, sleep - Worn and jeans with frayed cuffs, thermal paste stains, soldering-iron burns, and the permanent screwdriver fade-mark on the right-hand back pocket. - Chuck t-shirts - Linuxworld t-shirt - DEF CON t-shirt - BOFH "ATF agent" jacket with matching cap - Home decor al a Byte Magazine, and Handbook printouts. - A bookshelf full of outdated unix manuals - A room full of used and not-quite-working computer hardware - Windows NT 3.51 coasters (These are my *good* folding tables.) Will I need to grow my hair out and buy a Toyota as well? What's the current geek-fashion trend for shoes? Have double velcro-straps made the come back yet?
