Fever-induced dreams of Og—evidently the result of consuming salmonella-infused eggs—mark the release of multiple new stable kernels. Og's alter-ego, Greg Kroah-Hartman, has released the 2.6.27.53 ("Og wondered about these people, constantly relying on the old kernels to save them for another day"), 2.6.32.21 ("Some people dressed in odd clothes, red swirls, green lizards on their heads, red hats on others, and one remaining group who, despite it being very unflattering, always wore dull brown clothing, picked up the kernel and ran away with it back to the village"), 2.6.34.6 ("It only had one kernel left in it and he threw it at the people, saying, 'this is the last one.'"), and 2.6.35.4 ("Og reached into his bag marked with a big "35" and tossed a plump, [juicy] kernel at this final group, who instantly grabbed it up, thanked him for providing it (unlike those self-absorbed 32 and 27 people) and ran off to help spread the good news of a new kernel"). In case Og-speak was not clear enough, this will be the last .34 kernel and .27 is nearing the end of its life. All users of these kernels must upgrade.
