1/5     i heard one of the most amusing stories ever from my cousin the
        other night, he was getting pissed off by a norwegian guy who kept
        talking bullshit to him etc, and changing nicks and hostnames etc
        just to continue doing so, he did a ping -f host & on him and
        forgot he had to have root privs to turn the damn ping off.... he
        did that from a 155 mbit line... brought down all of vestfold in
        norway, thats 3 million users without connectivity for hal
        \_ It's that easy to bring down a net?
        \_ you idea of amusing differs greatly from mine

--- You have to have root privileges to _start_ ping -f.
     -f      Flood ping.  Outputs packets as fast as they come back or one
             hundred times per second, whichever is more.  For every
             ECHO_REQUEST sent a period ``.'' is printed, while for every
             ECHO_REPLY received a backspace is printed.  This provides a
             rapid display of how many packets are being dropped.  Only the
             super-user may use this option.  This can be very hard on a net-
             work and should be used with caution.

3/30    a girl i went to a party with on saturday got really drunk
        and whispered to me 'I REALLY LIKE SEX'.  I ignored her
        because my hemorrhoid was angry.  What should I have done?
        \_ Your hemorrhoid (sp?) saved you from a moral fault.  It's
           unethical to have sex with a person who's incapable of
           consent.  However, now you know she likes sex.  So,

        \_ I saw a version of Riverdance in Branson, Missouri that was
           full of very fit Irish women and in one dance they wore white
           and with the lights it left absolutely nothing to the imagination.
           The crowd was pretty stunned. I turned to my girlfriend and
           said "Uh, what was that?" and she confirmed. If you know
