[AccessD] Friday OT: 10 ways to indicate you are a geek

Gustav,
Well, I don't understand 128 and 256 - I mean, I understand how the binary
system works, what I don't understand is why you go to a swimming pool in
the first place. Your country is surrounded by water only 1 mile away in any
direction apart from up and down.

With number plates, I try to make sentences out of them eg, my plate letters
are GLB.  I reckon they stand for Good Looking Bloke. LOL

With numbers I try to get 9 out of adding, then adding the result etc. eg,
448 = 16.  16=7.  Not 9, failed.
But 558 - 18 = 9. Winner!!!!


Do this:
   1.  Think of a number between 1 and 10.
   2. Multiply the number by 9.
   3. Add the digits of your result.
   4. Subtract 5 from your new number.
   5. Find the letter that corresponds to your number, if 1 = A, 2 = B, 3 =
C, etc.
   6. Think of a country that begins with your letter.
   7. Write down the name of that country.
   8. Think of an animal beginning with the second letter of your country.
   9. Think of the colour of that animal.
  10. Write down the animal and its colour.
  11. Think of an animal that begins with the last letter of your country.
  12. Think of a fruit that begins with the last letter of this second
animal.
  13. Write down the fruit and the animal.

Sadly, Denmark is an unlikely place to find Grey Elephants and as for Orange
Kangaroos - not in Denmark!

Hi all

Do such ten commandments exists?

Some personal observations:

1. When I go swimming and pick a cloak box, my favourites are no. 128 and
256 (no explanation should be needed).

2. When driving, I try to find patterns and rules for the numbers on the
license plates of the cars that pass.

You see, that's only two, so I'm not a geek(?) - I guess five are more
should describe your behaving to make you a geek.
If eight more exists, we can feed stuff to Susan for a new article.

I don't think collection of something qualifies. People collect the
strangest things, and collecting CPU models doesn't make you more a geek
than one collecting ballpens or Miles Davis records. Not that I collect CPU
models but some do.
