Proposal: New startup and shutdown sounds for gusty gibbon

As a result of discussion among some .au Ubuntu fans, I have proposed new startup and shutdown sounds for Ubuntu 7.10, Gusty Gibbon. Fully functional on Fisty Fawn, too! Might bring some mirth to poor folks locked in a Seville hotel.

Dell collaborates with Microsoft/Novell - 2007 is definitely the year of desktop Linux

“I think 2007 is the year of desktop Linux adoption. More importantly, I think Iâ€™m right.” — I can’t believe Colin just said this. Jinxed for another year. Sheesh!

For those who have missed the point wrt spelling… From ~/.irssi/config:
```
completions = {
  "feisty" = { value = "fisty"; auto = "yes"; }
  "gutsy" = { value = "gusty"; auto = "yes"; }
};
```
