Pat doesn't know how many persons are suffering because of him... I'm sick and dependent, do you understand guys?

All good things come to those who wait
Patience is a sound business
Fast runners are dead runners
Patience conquerors all
No need to rush, said the robber, and they led him to the gallows
That was quick, said the maid, and she was pregnant

Perhaps, we should reset our picks and start again with the contest? Just a suggestion...
Do you think it's a good idea? Perhaps, we could have a poll on it...?

Despite the fact that I subscribed to slackware-announce so I'd get emailed when it's released, I still check every morning to see if it has been released...

And me! When the next release isn't actually called 'Slackware 13', then I win I win I win!

:ahem:

It's not about the prices. I'll give the prices away. It's about the thrill of competing in such an extraordinary competition, leaning equally on skills, knowledge and luck.
