Emails I Often Receive
a common email conversation between my husband and i.
Derek: I was just going to see what your ip address was on your work computer.
Me: k
Derek: You do “ipconfig” at the command prompt (he even sent me a screen shot)
Me: I know that! 123.45.678.91 (this is not my actual ip)
Derek: At a command line do: ping 12.3.4.56 (not his), and tell me if it replies…thanks!
Me: Yup…it replied.
Derek: That answers my question…thanks!
Me: Did I do it right?
Derek: Yes you did…you are a genius!
Me: Duh
