A Network of Ubuntu Muppets, Part 2

I have not posted on my blog for a while, I guess I have broken the habit. Luckily, as if just to help me ease back into this blog, there is currently a meme spreading from planet to planet.

I actually posted about my computer naming theme last October, see "A Network of Ubuntu Muppets". I am still using the same naming theme, only I now have 3 more muppets on the network; beaker, fozziebear and muppy. My network of Ubuntu muppets is growing.

Bah.

A Network of Ubuntu Muppets

I was sat at my PC tapping away at the keyboard when I heard Becky's voice from behind, "Who's Miss Piggy?" It took me all of a nanosecond to realise what she was talking about, but several minutes to explain away my new mystery girlfriend.

As it turned out, Becky had witnessed my connection to Miss Piggy first hand. She'd seen this floating on my desktop:

Terminal SSH session connected to misspiggy

I had to chuckle when I explained that I'd named the systems on my network after characters from the muppets. I then properly introduced her to misspiggy, gonzo and kermit — only for Becky to ask, "Where's Beaker?"

Beaker the Muppet
