Well I like these commands:

ps -uax (it gives size of the process and such)

kill -INT|-HUP (as they are great when installing new daemons that I 
constantly have to restart for config reasons)

ln -s /some/path name  (used to make symbolic links for quick navigation
and such)

of course  fortune (/usr/games/fortune on my box)...

and whereis (how I found the path for fortune, and many others!)
