There's no place like 127.0.0.1

Your mama is like HTML: Tiny head, huge body

I set my password to 'incorrect'. Now if I type it wrong, it tells me "Your password is incorrect". Never have to worry again!

I'd tell you a joke about UDP, but you might not get it.

I could tell you a TCP joke, but I'd have to keep repeating it until you got it.

I tell users to set their password to < slang for male anatomy >, so when they try to change it, the system tells them it isn't long enough.

There's no place like ::1 (The IPv6 version)

I know a great IPv6 joke... but I don't think you're ready...

There are 101 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, those who don't, and then there are those who love a tertiary joke.

Ø's are data too.

A Local Area Network in Australia... is a LAN Down Under

Keyboard not found. Press ENTER to continue.

11 Cheers for Binary!

If someone steals a Tesla, is it then called an Edison?

You should never anthropomorphise computers. They hate it when you do that!

Why do Java developers wear glasses? Because the can't C#

If you put a million monkeys on a million keyboards, one of them will eventually write a Java program. Ther rest of them will write Perl programs.

There's a band called 1023MB. They haven't had any gigs yet.

You're more forgetful than a short-term DHCP lease!

A programmer is going to the grocery store. His spouse tells him, "Buy a gallon of milk, and if there are eggs, buy a dozen."
So he goes to the store, buys everything, and returns.
Spouse gets very angry and yells "Why did you get 13 gallons of milk?"
The programmer says "There were eggs!"

During a recent password audit, it was found that a blonde receptionist was using the following password:
MickeyMinniePlutoHueyLouieDeweyDonaldGoofySacramen to
When asked why, she said she was told that it had to be at least 8 characters long and include at least one capital.

Five routers walk into a bar. Who gets the car keys?
The Designated Router.

I have read and understood the license agreement.

Jerry A. Taylor, Tuttle OK.That one's over 10 years old (http://creativenotice.com/2006/03/tuttle-oklahoma-usa/). What we call an ID-Ten(T) error.

But with that said, we shouldn't get personal.

You'll recognize the client's voice.

"Wasn't that a promotion from WOR?"
This guy was his own promotion.

You don't need to tell me about Shep. I grew up listening to him. My older sister just loved ratting me out to my parents, because I'd sneak a transistor radio into bed with me so I could catch him, every night.

I dunno. 710 spelled backwards is oil. An OLD auto shop joke. Kinda like the old tire shop funny when someone says "I'll be right back" and you respond with "I'll be left front".


<groan>


never mind..... My the ZL's are strong on 20 right now!

WOR AM is on 710 kHz. I guess that was too subtle.

It's been a long time for me too, but once you've been on a Nantucket sleigh ride with Moby Grape you'll never forget it, aye Queequeg? Eh, FYI a Downeaster lives on Long Island southeast of New England and has a downeast accent to go with it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVlDSzbrH5MLove that tune, even though it's a sad one.

One of his better, if not best, ballads. Wasn't released as a single, as far as I know, but maybe it should have been.

You know, of course, that the boat in the song title is named after his daughter, right?

Years ago, I got a chance to hang out in NYC for over a month. Guy who I was working for had a lot of connection$.

The east coast thing was fun, if a bit in yer face. With my MN accent, many thought I was from Maine or Vermont.

Going to CBGBs was insane, but a lot of fun.

It works both ways.

I worked at an ISP. Someone called in and asked for Logan. After some confusion she said some webpage said, "Login to continue." I guess she didn't know how the name Logan was spelt, and the idiot who coded the webpage didn't know it was, "log on," was two words.
