Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69

Doing some Cisco homework and thought this was quite funny.

*/ Mod's : I know this is a WTF more then a Funny,*/
You wouldn't believe the amounts of money an audiophile will pay for set of cables, or vacuum tubes. I've seen people spending thousands and thousands of euros for their equipment.Originally Posted by BOFH139
But, the audiophiles are extremely funny to watch when they gather around their gear, sit in their armchairs, sip a nice cognacs and start talking "music". Like,
"see, I told you this cables can pronounce those fourty hertz freqs much, much better than the others. And just hear those beautiful 19 and a half kilohertzes. You cannot get better than this cables..." , and so on and on.
But then again, everyone probably has some kind of hobby...
Beer is served only to members of the trade union!
Years ago I worked in a place that sold top end Audio equipment and we also sold cable that went from ~.02€ per meter upto 25-30€ per meter.
There was always people that were looking for the best OXS gold plated cables. The funnest thing was are demo room was wired with a std. 79 stand cable that retailed for ~.70€ per meter {we were making >800% profit on this}.
This is also a funny read.....
Do Coat Hangers Sound As Good Monster Cables?
Oh, yeah.The Monster Cables.What a hoax...
Being a pro musician for the last 20 years, i've never (repeat, never) noticed a difference between a cheap guitar or whatever cable, and a Monster one.
But now i'm drifting away from General IT discussion.Sorry, mods...

Maybe we should start a business offering extended warranties on coat hangers.
A third party security audit is the IT equivalent of a colonoscopy. It's long, intrusive, very uncomfortable, and when it's done, you'll have seen things you really didn't want to see, and you'll never forget that you've had one.
