I know this question is not fully programmatic, but I know many are wondering the same thing, so I will go ahead and say it: what does the Python logo mean? Someone get it?

According to this page, it was designed by Tim Parkin. He discusses it here: "...the logo is actually based on mayan representations of snakes which very often represent only the head and perhaps a short length of tail. The structure of the snake representations the natural coiling/nesting of a snake as seen side on.."
The Python logo is a trademark of the Python Software Foundation, which is responsible for defending against any damaging or confusing uses of the trademark. See the PSF Trademark Usage Policy. In general, we want the logo to be used as widely as possible to indicate use of Python or suitability for Python.
The main symbol of identity consists of two snakeheads. Its creator is designer Tim Parkin.
Why is it called Python? ¶ When he began implementing Python, Guido van Rossum was also reading the published scripts from “Monty Python's Flying Circus”, a BBC comedy series from the 1970s. Van Rossum thought he needed a name that was short, unique, and slightly mysterious, so he decided to call the language Python.
You mean this one? I think it's just supposed to look like two snakes (pythons).
