You mean there is life outside of Internet? You're shittin' me! I haven't dragged myself to class in weeks. Getting paid for it!

GEEK UNIX CODE [UBL$>++++$]

I use BSD and GNU/Linux. Getting paid for it! But someday I'd like to say: "I am the sysadmin. If you try and crack my machine don't be surprised if the municipal works department gets an "accidental" computer-generated order to start a new landfill on your front lawn or your quota is reduced to 4K. Getting paid for it!"

GEEK PERL CODE [P+>++++$]

I know of perl. I like perl. I just haven't learned much perl, but it is on my agenda. But someday I'd like to say: "I don't write Perl, I speak it. Perl has superseded all other programming languages. I firmly believe that all programs can be reduced to a Perl one-liner. I use Perl to achieve U+++ status. Getting paid for it!"

GEEK GNU/LINUX CODE [L++$]

I use GNU/Linux ALMOST exclusively on my system. I've given up trying to achieve GNU/Linux.God status, but welcome the OS as a replacement for DOS. I only boot to DOS to play games. Getting paid for it!

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE]

Distrust both government and business.

GEEK CYPHERPUNKS CODE [Y+>++]

I have an interest and concern in privacy issues, but in reality I am not really all that active or vocal. But someday I'd like to say: "I am on the cypherpunks mailing list and active around Usenet. I never miss an opportunity to talk about the evils of Clipper and ITAR and the NSA. Orwell's 1984 is more than a story, it is a warning to our's and future generations. I'm a member of the EFF."

GEEK PGP CODE [PGP>+++]

I've used it, but stopped long ago. But someday I'd like to say: "I don't send or answer mail that is not encrypted, or at the very least signed. If you are reading this without decrypting it first, something is wrong. IT DIDN'T COME FROM ME!"

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t++@]

It's the best show around. I have all the episodes and the movies on tape and can quote entire scenes verbatim. I've built a few of the model kits too. But you'll never catch me at one of those conventions. Those people are kooks. But that varies...

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [5]

I've seen it, I am pretty indifferent to it.

GEEK X FILES CODE [X@>++]

Ho hum. Just another Fox show. But that varies... But someday I'd like to say: "This is one of the better shows I've seen. I wish I'd taped everything from the start at SP, because I'm wearing out my EP tapes. I'll periodically debate online. I've Converted at least 5 people. I've gotten a YAXA."

I was once G++ (or higher), but the new versions are getting too long and too complicated.

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e+]

Got an Associate degree.

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h!@*]
