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.“For success, attitude is equally as important as ability.” - Harry F. Banks -

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!

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.

Not that I've ever done that, mind you...
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?There is no place like 127.0.0.1 -

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.
