While I was an undergrad, I had to take Organic Chemistry over the  
summer, and I needed money.  I got a job during day at the library in  
the collections and development department, and at night I worked as a  
bouncer.  It was really a strange summer getting into scraps and  
coming home covered in blood and beer at times, and then showering up  
to work at the library, and then finally off to lab for a few  
experiments.

Mike Orr looks pretty tough, I think he should do a Caveman style  
article:  http://linuxgazette.net/115/orr.html  I have CC'd him.  I  
think he would look good in a caveman suite.

That might be some clever marketing to have a Caveman style section.   
It also seems like a good idea to aggregate Grok related blog feeds  
into a page on the main grok website like Django is doing here:  http://www.djangoproject.com/community/

I used the Google AJAX Feed API to aggregate RSS feeds on my home  
page, link in my sig line, and it was trivial:  http://code.google.com/more/#label 
=Featured&product=ajaxfeed

Also doing a regular blog from the core developers would be good for  
business too I suspect.
