Can't help myself:
There's Snow Leopard and there's Mountain Lion but there's no "Snow Lion".
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Ahahaha! I was looking at the # to be sure to get it right, no idea how I did that.

I did invent this thread after all. Or someone similar to me did, many years ago.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Ha. I was just paying attention to the numbers because I cannot keep all of the cats organized and properly stacked.

You'd think *I* could keep my cats straight...

It puzzles the hell out of my why Apple maintains a system of numbered operating systems and a matching system of named operating systems, but refuses to tell owners of Apple computers what the name is.
I go "about this Mac" and I can clearly see I'm using 10.8.5. I don't know what the name of that is. I have to go to Wikipedia to find out.
Is it because of Internationalisation? Is Snow Leopard called "Escargot de Niege" in French? I"m baffled.

You're supposed to have a telepathic connection with the operating system.

I just want to say this conversation is making me so happy to see you, John.

I don't recall if it was true in Mavericks but "OS X Yosemite" is the first line of the about box on 10.10.
