It occurred to me that an appropriate metaphor might be an elephant. :-)
After all, an elephant: never forgets, it towers over the other animals in
the jungle, it's often hunted by evil human predators, one can easily afix a
saddle to ride on top, it's smart: "They have the biggest brain (12
lbs.)..", it's thick skinned.
Maybe we adorn it's back with an apache-feather colored blanket, or a
feather behind it's ear.

Couple problems though, it might be tough to make an elephant look "cool"
(shades?), and the obvious jab: mod_perl = elephant = big footprint = proof:
ps aux | grep apache :-o
