You know your a geek when.....

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

True story: My license plate reads my initials and 2^13 ("8192")... every number from 2^4 to 2^12 was already taken. Incidentially, that's an numerical anagram for my phone number. (Which is on the license plate for my other car. ;-) )
Every good solution is obvious once you've found it.

I was writing a report today and when I took a break I noticed the word count was 1,337. That has actually happened a few times before. An even more amazing coincidence, I had like 32,213,442,690 bytes free on my hard drive once. I was bored at the time and playing around with numbers and decided to chop off a zero (so it was 3,221,344,269) and converted it to hexadecimal. My computer was addressing me 8)
My OS is Perception.
