Another user rings. 

"I need more space" he says 

"Well, why not move to Texas?" I ask 

"No, on my account, stupid." 

Stupid? Uh-Oh.. 

"I'm terribly sorry" I say, in a polite manner equal to that of Jimmy
Stewart in a Weekend Family Matine Feature "I didn't quite catch that. What
was it that you said?" 

I smell the fear coming down the line at me, but it's too late, he's a goner
and he knows it. 

"Um, I said what I wanted was more space on my account, *please*" 

"Sure, hang on" 

I hear him gasp his relief even though he'd covered the mouthpeice. 

"There, you've got *plenty* of space now!" 

"How much have I got?" he simps 

Now this *REALLY* *PISSES* *ME* *OFF*! Not only do they want me to give them
extra space, they want to check it, then correct me if I don't give them
enough! They should be happy with what I give them *and that's it*! 

Back into Jimmy Stewart mode. 

"Well, let's see, you have 4 Meg available" 

"Wow! Eight Meg in total, thanks!" he says, pleased with his bargaining
power 

"No" I interrupt, savouring this like a fine red at room temperature, with
steak, extra rare, to follow; "4 Meg in total.." 

"Huh? I'd used 4 Meg already, How could I have 4 Meg Available?" 

I say nothing. It'll come to him. 

"aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggghhhhhH!" 

I kill me; I really do!

OK, sorry if you feel this is WAY OT.

I am wanting to compile a list of the best one-liner Linux commands out
there.  So all you admins and users out there feel free to send me a copy of
your best one-liner commands with a brief explanation as to what they
accomplish.

It doesn't matter if it's for sendmail or procmail or ipchains or grep or
whatever.  All commands will be sorted per usage and all credit will be
given.

The sooner that I can get a bunch together the sooner I will post them on my
site.  And again, sorry if this is way OT for you folks, but I am really
curious as to what will show up.

thanks,
chuck

=======================================================
10. Please return stewardess to original upright position.
9. Fighting for peace is like fucking for virginity.
8. Never date someone because you're too lazy to commit suicide.
7. It is not the fall that kills you.  it's the sudden stop at the end.
6. You can't have everything.  Where would you put it all?
5. " Real Windows Performance", on the next "In Search Of".
4. 2 rules to success in life. 1. Don't tell people everything you know.
3. 24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case.  Coincidence?
2. 9 out of 10 men who try Camels prefer women.
1. Always borrow money from a pesimist.  They never expect it back anyway.

That's it!  NO MORE! JEEZ! GET BACK TO WORK!
