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

Yeah I think I've done the same, but I didnt use a cerial box, I left mine hanging from a coat hanger strung to the celing... It was pretty radical

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...

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.
