  1. Boot To The Head by Ngarrang · · Score: 1 · on America's Worst Christmas Parties

    At least it isn't what happened to poor Clark Griswold, getting a "Jelly of the Month" certificate for a Christmas bonus. Jelly of the Month would be nice compared to getting a boot to the head each month. http://beagleweb.com/fun-taekwanleap.html

  4. Re:Yeah but, don't worry. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Funny · on Cisco's LEAP Authentication Cracked
    They should have used Ti-Kwan-Leep authentication.

    Hey Cisco, Boot to the Head!

    Give him a boot to the head with sound effects!

  6. Re:Where do they get the lords? by pr0f3550r · · Score: 1 · on The Cost of 12 Days of Christmas

    Obviously the song is refering to Lords of 'Tae Kwan Leap'. I'm sure the lord of Tae Kwan Leap, master Ki-lo-knee, and his buddies cost a pretty penny for a personal appearance.

  7. Re:McBride's career after SCO by AndroidCat · · Score: 1 · on SCO Targets US Government, TiVo

    Now there's an idea for a Javascript page! A boot to the head page! (With sound track of course.)

    Tell them thanks to BeOS advanced capabilities, they can play several MP3's at once. As they sit there mesmerized with 50 media players open playing various Muslim prayer chants, we sneak up behind them and give them a Boot to the Head (TM)

  9. Putting a finger in the dike... by Brett+Glass · · Score: 2 · on Intel Goes for Display Encryption
    ...or even a million fingers, won't keep water from evaporating from the reservoir.

    As with the Processor Serial Number, Intel seems to mistakenly believe -- or perhaps their marketroids have been trying to fool media companies into believing -- that you can control access to information once you've put it into the user's hands. Of course, that's silly. It's too easy to jigger the hardware, crack the encryption, reverse-engineer the software. It will be no problem to crack open a "copy protected" monitor and extract a decrypted video signal in short order.

    The article says, " A violated key could be tracked down and revoked over a satellite broadcast network, for example." Of course, this is silly. It'll only take a few hours to crack the next one! And will consumers tolerate the notion of large corporations reaching into their homes to disable their equipment? Sure.... In the same way they turned out in droves to buy DivX players and movies.

    I feel like asking Intel and the media moguls: "Ed Gruberman, have you learned nothing from the lesson of DeCSS? Of DivX? Of the Processor Serial Number? Boot to the head!"

    Perhaps, in time, Intel will becoome enightened about this. But I'm not counting on it.
