[OT] Geek Ferret?

I just say one of my ferrets walking across the room...carrying an SCSI
terminator in her mouth. I don't know how she got to it. (note: It wasn't
hooked up to anything.) Maybe she's just trying to set up some hardware. I
just told her to make sure to set unique IDs on the devices.

I'll get worried if I see her trying to drag a monitor somewhere.

I used to have a couple of ferrets. About 20 years ago, I was watching TV
in the living room Loki (one of them) ran out of my bedroom, across the
living room, and under the stereo set (the one place he new I couldn't get
him.

Sensing he probably did some form of damage to the bedroom, I got up and
peered into the bedroom. It was night and there was no light on. No light,
that it, except for the dim glow from beside the bed.

On the floor, next to my night stand, was the phone. The buttons for
dialing were lit automatically when you picked it up. Apparently Loki had
knocked the phone onto the floor.

The peculiar part (and point of this pointlessly wrong story) was the
elderly voice on the other end going "hello? Hello?"

I picked up the phone, and said (as politely as I could) "I'm sorry, but
Loki's busy right now and hung up.

Apparently Loki had been startled (or interested) in the glowing #'s, and
pounced on them.

And called somebody.

if she get's internet access better watch to see if your downloads
increase. (try to train that ferret to be an ETHICAL hacker will you?)
