I just got this voicemail from a show producer for Beauty and the Geek. I’d make a better host than a contestant, wouldn’t you agree? Methinks you should give her a call, and let other geeks know how they can make it onto the next show. Just let ‘em know that I sent ya. M’kay?

Oh, yeah! And as you probably know, it’s official: Longhorn is Vista, Vista is Longhorn. I think I could’ve come up with a better name than what is clearly defined as… “a distant view or prospect.” Or perhaps that title is VERY fitting? Okay, Vista it is - but what could it have been instead?
