I can't wait to tell someone, "Gotta go see if the Vote Fairy has been around, because I'm almost a Potato". "Oh, the Sixties were good to you..."	[reply]

I think you'll find we need two levels of 'Potato', both pronounced 'Potayto', but some people will choose to believe that one (or both) is in fact 'Potahto' because there shouldn't be a pronunciation guide. If this idea gets taken up, this post should be hidden from all below the level of Grand Poo Bah (which is of course, higher than both Potato and Potato).

Mr. Trump just doesn't strike me as Camel driver... Strangely, he also doesn't strike the majority of people as president either. But, i'm being a bit conservative here.	[reply]

So long as we don't use the title Dancing Monkeyboy, I'm cool with it. Although if someone is passing out titles, I'd like to call dibs on "A Tale of Two Cities". -- tbone1, YAPS (Yet Another Perl Schlub) And remember, if he succeeds, so what. - Chick McGee	[reply]

Clearly, what with the history of the inquisition, I've met at least one Perl Grand Inquisitor in my time! But "Potato"? "Perl Potato"? Rubbish.

I dont like the idea of giving monks vegetable names either. Sometimes I feel slightly embarrassed when having to deal with people whose family names sound like vegetables - uttering them just feels so strange. It might even sound humiliating in some situations. This FAQ entry about pumpkins shows me though how culture sneakes them in anyway...	[reply]
