Yeah, I know. I was doing some stuff on a system and had to run mknod, and this popped into my head... At least I tried to be clever; created in 1980, major number 13, minor number 666, owned by allah, etc.

Well, gotta give you credit for the owner.

"chown allah /bin/laden" is pretty funny...

Hence my " " to soften the harshness of my rebuke.

It pleases me to no end to mention that I saw an extremely hot girl the other day, wearing a very tight, well-filled t-shirt that said "I love geeks".

That's definitely funny. Gotta love the chown.

I thought all the women who loved geeks lived on the moon, though?

chmod go+x while you are at it. That way a group or others on the system could execute /bin/laden.

Or better! strip -s /bin/laden

Neat to see all us *nix geeks on here..

Well, right now it appears that only allah can do that

Or better! strip -s /bin/laden

Not sure I'd want to see him naked. Nope - I'm sure.

In the mean time, we can bash /bin/laden (he doesn't appear to be in my PATH)
