in General Certification
Thought this would be an interesting thread. What's the nicest thing that anyone have created working with computers, Operating Systems, Networking, Scripting, Anything..

Whether it was playing around or improvising.....what's the coolest thing you guy's have done?

I remember one time ago,Me and my friend built a pc out of a kellogs box and mounted a flat screen vga monitor on the side.- low profile huh??..lol
There is no better than adversity, every defeat, every loss, every heartbreak contains its seed. Its own lesson on how to improve on your performance the next time.

    Hehe, I remember reading about this and was shot down by a bunch of engineers who explained why this wouldn't work.

    I was kidnapped and tied up in a burning building in Detroit; left to die. Luckily I had some Big Red gum, shoe string, dental floss and toilet bowl cleaner in my back pocket. Created an explosion and slid out the window onto a cable using my left sock. BAM! Beat that!

    How about bringing down an F-16 with a gum wrapper, three feet of dental floss, and a tic-tac?

    Not that I've ever done that, mind you...

    Hacked into Starbucks mainframe and single handedly lowered their coffee prices by 75% for a week...

    People were only paying $6/cup for a limited time thanks to me. icon_cool.gif

    I'm curious of how bringing down a F-16 with gum wrapper, 3 feet of dental floss and a tic-tac relates to IT topics or networking...

    Last I checked, you cannot plug dental floss into your NIC, lol... I also checked on Ebay for Floss5e UTP lol... Didn't find nothing there either >.< could you better explain this relation to me lol?

    Only $6 per cup? I'm surprised they didn't put out a hit on you. That's almost the discount you get for being a CCIE.
