9/23    The installed perl is 3.0, which is kinda old. Anyone mind updating
                                \_ Try 4.036, the last perl4 release
        it?
        \_  /usr/local/bin/perl --version
            This is perl, version 5.005_02 built for i386-freebsd
            \_ Hey, thanks!  I needed Perl 5 for my motd-rearranging script.
                \_ Wimp.  I wrote mine in bourne shell.

9/24    thanks to the asshole who has been rearranging the motd,
        the motd is now dead.
        \_ One day, hopefully, the idiot will look back and wonder why they
           thought it was so funny at the time.  Unfortunately for the rest
           of us, that day isn't here yet.

9/24    how do you pass x-windows over ssh (port 22)? info on how to do this
        on a windows machine would be doubly helpful.

9/24    recommendation for place that will repair a monitor?
        \_ just buy a new one.
        \_ I can't.  We're cheap.

1/1     Motd nuked!
        \_ good job

1/1     Motd exterminated!
        \_ Hey nimrod, it's the first day of autumn, not the first day of the
           year.
           \_ You just need to readjust your paradigms.
        \_ it is?

1/1     whoever is restoring the motd, don't do it! I want a clean login
        window for god's sake! reading the motd makes me sick! come on,
        we are all Berkeley grad's have nothing to at work but to nuke
        the motd!!
        \_ touch $HOME/.hushlogin
        \_ Hey nimrod, it's the first day of autumn, not the first day of the
           year.
           \_ You just need to readjust your paradigms.
        \_ it is?

9/23    I like this girl at work but she has a bf, what do I do? how do
        I break them up?
        \_ Go on the Jerry Springer show, claiming you've had a  homosexual
           relationship with the BF.
        \_ Kill him in front of her then claim to her and the cops you saved
           her from him when he went balistic on her over her passionate
           secret sexual relationship with you.  She'll go along with it just
           to avoid embarassment.  Worked for me.

9/23    I like to sleep with this guy at work but he has a gf, what do I do?
        \_ Strip naked in front of him in his office/cubicle.  He'll be so
           impressed that he'll dump his gf and go with you.  It worked for
           me.
           \_ This doesn't always work. He'll just treat you like a cheap
              slut and go back to his gf. You need to give him a blow job
              at work for him to dump his gf.
              \_ she won't move over!
                 \_ Give her a blow job. She should freak out and give
                    you some room. If she doesn't consider a menage a trois.
