here is a program out there that at random intervals, and whenever
there is a disk access, does the following:
you hear a very faint police siren that gradually gets louder and
louder. When it reaches max volume, a little police car drives
across your screen, the pitch changes as the car flies past, and then
diminishes in volume. The humour of the thing quickly dies, as the
interval is set to a much to frequent setting, but it is fun to put in
someones bootdisk, and screw with there head for a day or so. The first
time it happens, boy do their eyes bug out. The pink Energizer bunny
(from a previous post) would be about the same thing. Someone should do
it.
