This was the first year I hosted thanksgiving dinner. All in all I think it went well. The food was well liked.
Sun Stuff
So I get poked fun of at work any time I wear a Sun shirt.(And no I don’t have Sun Underwear, or Sun Socks, or anything with a Sun logo that is below the belt.).. When I first started I pretty much wore a Sun logo’d item every day… (I have enough, more on that later). I have cut back some (have to dress up a little more now.) So I decided tonight to start going through the house to find all of my Sun stuff. So far this is what I have found:
- Numerous ink pens. Everything from the pen/highlighters from classes, to some more expensive ones that are engraved/etched.
- Sun Mints (got to say one of the weirdest)
- Sun Sun Glasses
- Various Sun Hardware, from Servers to workstations. (SPARC2, 5, and Ultra 5)
- Broke Sun Ray 1 (the caps in it were from the bad caps era)
- 3 Sun Binders
- 1 Sun Leather notebook
- 4 Sun ceramic mugs
- 2 Sun mugs
- 1 Sun Water bottle
- 3 Sun book bags
- 2 Sun Jackets
- 1 Sun folding Camp stool
- 7 Sun Polo Shirts
- 1 Sun long Sleeve dress shirt
- 10 Sun T-Shirts
- 3 or 4 Sun Mouse pads, both cloth and the old hashed ones for the original optical mouse
- 3 Sun lapel pins for Certifications that I have earned.
- 3 Sun “business cards” for certifications that I have earned
- Sun microphone
- Sun Java Cup Coaster
- Sun Stop Watch
- Wireless Sun laptop mouse
- 1 Sun CoolThreads niagra CPU
- Various Sun Java Cards from the EBC
- Copies of SunOS 4
- Copies of Solaris for SPARC and Intel from Solaris 2.5 up to and including Solaris 10
- Copy of OpenSolaris 2005.08

This is just what I have found in the couple of hours I looked briefly through the house. And for the proof here are some pics. So as you can see I am a “Sun Geek”.

OpenSource Ponytail?
It seems that Sun has OpenSource’d the “Ponytail” of Jonathan Scwhartz..
