Haggis is only good if it's cut wi a Clamaere at a Robbie Burns dinner :) Of course, this was 28 years ago an my recollection may be a bit fuzzy.

I draw a very definitive line this side of haggis, and will only do bangers and mash under coercion. Them damn Brits sure know how to screw up a good breakfast. (btw, in Scotland they pronounce it Waddle. I sat next to a scotsman on a plane once who just happened to have the same last name, spelled Waddell but pronounced Waddle.) Even more interesting (to me at least) is that I met another Pete Waddell recently on the internet. Of course my legal name is not Pete. (tho I did get the name Pete at birth, it is not on my birth certificate). And those of you who do know my legal name have already been sworn to secrecy under pain of persecution in print and internet. p.

George, the Waddell name is Scottish. Every time I watch Brave Heart I want to paint my face blue and moon a Brit.

I think Pete looks way too much like Jean-Luke Picard!!! It's scary... heheh... And I know Pete is way too 'Texan' to pull that one off and he's way too tall for the Starfleet uniform. I think he makes a great Gandalf... 'PCB Wizard' Extraordinaire... but I'm a little biased there... of course no English accent there to help complete the illusion though... Can ye speak with a Scottish Brrrrogue? Hmmmm... I can just see Pete towering over everyone in a Kilt and a Claymore on his back... too funny... :) He would have fit in with the Scottish Highland Games I just attended last Weekend... http://www.sdhighlandgames.org/ Maybe 007 is too swanky for him although I'm sure the ladies like a man in a suit... I think the best outfit would be his Blues Brothers outfit... with the shades, black suit and the hat... now that's way cool! Most of the time I see and recognize Pete is when he wears his favorite black shirt and jeans... that's how most of the designers I have known dress... casual and cool.. but how many of us are fashion conscious anyway? Comfort first... makes more sense to me. I'm not too concerned about it.. 'Casual Friday' is everyday for me... LOL .... besides a tie would get tangled in the keyboard.... :) http://www.pcbwest.com/gallery/west05_floor7.jpg The photo's on the webpage are terrific... great Photoshop work to whoever did them... http://www.pcbeast.com/poll.php Thanks for the chuckles on Friday... great way to enter into the 4th of July weekend with a smile...

Hey all, In case you don't already know, they are having a little fun on on the PCB East web site.

So, check it out and VOTE for your favorite. (shaken, not stirred) We need to promote this idea of having FUN at conferences... this is great! See the info below.
