So a buddy and I were chatting today about Ubuntu and their naming convention, and decided that we needed to come up with a bunch of possible names for the upcoming Ubuntu 10.10 release, which is due in October! Sometimes we springboarded from one adjective/animal to the next, so you’ll see some closely-related names…
- Maudlin Mantis
- Morose Manatee
- Mellow Manatee
- Mossy Manatee
- Marauding Mongoose
- Marauding Mudskipper
- Magnanimous Moose
- Morose Moose
- Maternal Macaque
- Miffed Meerkat
- Majestic Mammoth
- Moody Martin
Also seen on the Ubuntu Blog: Masturbating Monkey! :-)
Post your original creations (or links to your favorites found elsewhere) below!

- I’ve been told that the key to a winning bracket is the ability to choose your own final four, and let a system like mine handle the lesser games. I’m going to build this into my page very soon!
- Better rankings
- Instead of relying solely on head-to-head ranking matchups, I will be incorporating RPI and strength of schedule into the calculations. We’ll see how this works out.
And now, read on for this year’s FAQ, gratuitously copied from last year’s! Read the rest of this entry »

Snowing again in Cincinnati – going to brave the white death to try to get to work! Wish I could stay home and work 20m instead!
