At a previous job, we would play an FPS game during our lunch hour, this game 
had the ability to add bots and we could set the expertise level of the bots to 
be whatever we wanted, and also name the bots.  We had a bot that was set at an 
expert level named A Five Year Old Girl....whenever someone was killed the game 
would state that "Weasel was killed by A Five Year Old Girl".....made for some 
hilarious lunches.  We also had a bot named No One......

Now who says admins have no sense of humor.

  (Some versions of) SunOS/Solaris, by default, when told to ping a
host XYZ, just report "XYZ is alive" if it gets a response.  This led
to a former cow-orker of mine naming a box "elvis", just so he could
ping it from a Sun.
