[Am-info] Re: [ma-linux] October 16 Hands On Linux Meeting Topic: Windows Malware

[Gene Gaines]

wait, wait.  This is fun!
Announcing a meeting on Windows Malware on this Linux list?

The little wheels in my head begin turning, and if I'm not
careful, I'm gonna laugh so hard I'll fall out of my chair.

Let see..  Perhaps Microsoft would be glad to host such a
meeting.  Beautiful facilities at their office in DC.  Plus,
they got executives who welcome an opportunity to act as a
crazed gorilla before an audience.

And..  Ever seen their "Paperclip Bob" costume? I know Bob was
retired but the costume might still be around. Looks just like
an outhouse on legs!

I could go on and on, but would not want to offend any of the
Penguinistas here. I'm still laughing, gotta stop this.  I
promise I'll be good for the rest of the day.
