If the first is Oscar it only stands to reason the second should be Myers.
You could invite them to a picnic and hit them up for a dontation?

We know one server will be Oscar for sure. Have the guys at the lab even hinted at what is the second sever's name?

Phoenix.....signifying the rising from the ashes.

Or Oscar II signifying twins.

Not my call to make.

Hawkings after Steven Hawkings

I have a Sinoloan Milksnake named Hawking. I always had a soft spot for the brightest scientists.

This isn't my snake, but it is a Sinolaon Milksnake.

looks enough like a coral snake to scare the bejeebees out of me.
Although the markings do not not match the poem, "black and white, it will be all right. black and red, gonna be dead"

Red touch yellow, kill a fellow. Red touch black, a friend to Jack.

I'll try to remember that the next time I meet Jack......
Of course, the Jack I know wouldn't leave many alive anyways.

Ahhh the joys of living in Florida. We have Coral snakes all over the place down here. Learned that rhyme about Jack a long time ago. How did we get to a discussion of snakes?

The name Hawking was suggested. I have a snake named Hawking. It's a good name. :)

Dejah Thoris, Princess of Mars E.R. Burroughs

"It is a seminal example of the planetary romance genre, which became highly popular in the decades to follow, and also has some elements of Westerns. It is set on a dying Mars, informed by ideas popularized by astronomer Percival Lowell in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

It inspired a number of well known 20th century science fiction writers, including Ray Bradbury, John Norman and Arthur C. Clarke, and was also inspirational for many scientists in the fields of space exploration and the search of extraterrestrial life, including scientist Carl Sagan, who read the novel as a child."
