- curl - Frequently Asked Questions (curl.se)
cURL is the name of the project. The name is a play on ‘Client for URLs’, originally with URL spelled in uppercase to make it obvious it deals with URLs. The fact it can also be read as ‘see URL’ also helped, it works as an abbreviation for “Client URL Request Library” or why not the recursive version: “curl URL Request Library”.
- Fremont Rocket (Wikipedia)
The Fremont Rocket is a sculpture of a rocket in the Fremont neighborhood of Seattle, Washington, US. The rocket had been displayed at an army surplus store in Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood until 1991, when a news radio broadcast said the store was dismantling its “circa 1950 Cold War rocket fuselage [sic]”, prompting the Fremont Business Association to buy it for $750. The Business Association took a few years to overcome problems with assembling and erecting the rocket, finally placing it at its current location at N 35th St. and Evanston Ave N. on June 3, 1994.
