Probably because he caused the cut... (just kidding!!).
More broadly, I had this idea for a NANOG T-shirt. Under the slogan,
"Don't Get Mad, Get Even" -- the image of a backhoe lined up in the crosshairs
of a weapon...

I'll buy several... 
Heh. Sign me up...I'll take a few. 
I'll buy a few of them too...
And don't forget the NANOG firing range. NERF makes a gun called the
"Defender T3" that would be appropriate for target practice on some
cardboard backhoe cutouts lined up on a table.
That would make the "Defender T3" a T3 defender in that particular
application.
Perhaps NERF should come out with a "Defender OC192"; it could be a lot
more fun.
