I work in a Boston office, and most of our employees are Boston Red Sox fans, but we have a few New Yorkers who have moved up here.

Yesterday, I got my new copy of Adobe Acrobat 6 installed, and I soon found that it has text- and voice-recognition capabilities that allow it to read aloud from a PDF. I am the day shift manager of this office, and the only one with Acrobat 6 so far. Our customer service guy is a huge Yankees fan, and he likes to lord it over us about the success of his team and the failure of ours.

So I decided to have a little fun. I copied the words "Yankees SUCK!" about 500 times into a Word file, printed a PDF, opened it in Acrobat 6, cranked up my speakers, hit shift-ctrl-v and let it rip.

I'm sure he'll think of some way to get back, but I've got him at the bottom of the list for his Acrobat 6 upgrade. :D

Better, sneak it into his startup file, and every other sound making event.


I did that to the guy I work for. Got a clip of Nelson's laugh (the bully from "The Simpsons") and set it for every single possible sound in Windows.

This guys doesn't even know how to change the background on his monitor.

Then I left the office when he came back but before he got to the computer.
