That's why I'm wearing a goatee

On the left, the logo of the US Department of Defense’s Technical Support Working Group. On the right, the logo of the alternate-universe evil Federation in the “Mirror, Mirror” episode of Star Trek. At least now we know which timeline we’re in. How long before John Ashcroft gets hold of the Tantalus Field device?

Atrios (http://atrios.blogspot.com/2002_10_13_atrios_archive.html#82994744) discusses the logo of the DARPA Information Awareness Office. And the motto!! I own that Latin dictionary and believe it implicitly.

Government graphic design: threat or menace?

And you're wearing a vandyke, hon. See ya!

That's what I first thought, but now I'm not so sure. I found another source that claims that a van dyke is a chin beard, like a goatee, but silm and pointed. So I dunno. Merriam-Webster sez a Vandyke is "a trim pointed beard", and mine isn't pointed.
