With that, I've decided to delay it to officially be on Nov 28 - Dec 4th. That doesn't stop people from celebrating it before the official dates, of course.

I continue to pepper this thread with posts of my lack of a work-week avatar.

If the blacksmith one is too hard to think of something for, writer or lawyer work well enough as well.

AD 1970- Angry vikings discover spam.

It's a server room full of server racks full of servers. Each rack houses multiple independent servers. Well, some are clustered rather than totally independent, but you get the idea.
