It is once again time to give thanks to Brian Fox, the Black American programmer that has given us BASH and echo! Thank you for your INCREDIBLE contributions to open source software, Unix, and Linux.

"It's the right night evening for a tune" Snufkin thought. "A new tune, one part expectation, two parts spring sadness, and for the rest, just the great delight of walking alone and liking it."

I met a boy
He was my friend
I said, “Boy, we could sing it, too”
