OK now guys - you need to hear some background and bear with me on this one - but I received an email from a client company that I Telnet into through a VPN connnection. And you need to be aware that I have a netwrok of three computers all of which might do this - the first was called "BOLLOX" (because it was the dogs wottsits when I had it then!) the next should have been called "PUPPY", (but got a boring name when Lord refromatted and installed Windows as a favour to me!) and my sig rig is called
because I own it and consider the technology and nexus case "sexy"....
Now below - with details removed for obvious reasons is an email I receive the other day (remember this is over 12 MONTHS after I have been connecting with all these computers on a more or less daily basis!)....
I was seriously grinning that day - but also somewhat challenged - I now need to think up three names that match up in a connected sense and with possibility of adding more (EG - Matthew, Mark, Luke - has option to add John)....
Apart from sharing in my warped humour at this incident - could you folks come up with some potential namings for my rigs? I do not want to make all these updates and have to change again - and I want something that retains my preference for character - oh year and I like Hunter S. Thompson and stuff and it can be a USA theme that is fine too....
all ideas that I like repped - even if they are not chosen!
C'mon and amaze me guys - I shared that real funny tale - so what can you suggest?
"SEXYBITCH"
Now below - with details removed for obvious reasons is an email I receive the other day (remember this is over 12 MONTHS after I have been connecting with all these computers on a more or less daily basis!)....
Code:
[I]My name[/I]
We would certainly appreciate it if you would name your computer something other than “SEXYBITCH” if you are connecting to the [I][client name][/I] network via VPN.
Thank you.
