Boss Ross took a number of photos for his moblog, including this one of the signs I made up:
By the way, that little foam rubber cow in the upper right-hand corner of the pic is Tucows‘ most-coveted piece of swag: The Squishy Cow! We handed some out after the meeting last night.
Amber MacArthur moblogged some photos too, including Ross playing the part of “Tattoo”:
“The markup language! The markup language!”
…while I was the suave and tanned “Mr. Roarke”:
“Smiles, everyone! Smiles!”

I have a squishy cow at my lab, JUST like that one, and it's NOT a Tucows cow.
It's a Gibco cow. Gibco is a company that sells some supplies for cell biology research. Specifically, they sell growth medium and supplements to culture mammalian cells in dishes. More specifically, they sell a very necessary component: "fetal bovine serum" that practically all cells need to grow healthy, and which, as the name suggests, comes from COWS. Hence the squishy cows. It's funny, in a sad OMG-poor-cow way.
