I think the newest release is so good. There is so much that was added to it. You will definitely benefit from using it. The creator has done such a great job with it. removing ink stains

No matter what the first word might be (proud, precocious, pervasive, pompous, pedantic, prophetic) the second word should be PENGUIN! :-)

Waiting for "R"

I wasn't that concerned with 12.04, but if the schedule holds, 13.04 "R" will be released on my birthday. I'm hoping (although rather doubt it) that the animal in question that release is "raccoon", which is my favorite animal (note the raccoon in my avatar).

If someone was going to use "perverted" should have combined it to make "Perverted Pig" hehehe.

I'm surprised nobody is using some powerful animals like Panther or Puma.

What about Poignant Porcupine?
