HAVE YOU SEEN THIS PENGUIN?

Hello Walter!  It looks like he ran off with your good keyboard too
since the URLs you provided are typos and should be

Funny you should be looking for an errant penguin.  One was recently
nabbed (by my own Beowulf Penguin Corps) trying to load Microsoft
Windows onto the master node of our cluster.  I cannot be sure he is
your penguin, but he has been detained.  He is healthy at present but
I cannot guarantee his safety; the other penguins are pretty upset about
his abberant behavior.  He is being held in a dimly-lit cell and is not
allowed any visitors.

I am enclosing a photo of the said penguin taken today.  Please let me
know if you recognize him.
