Well, a "pinger' is a slang for an electromagnetic pulse generator. Pretty sizable and heavy capacitor battery, tuning inductance, a spark gap switch plus a parabolic antenna and a few more parts. You "ping" - and fry all the unprotected electronics in vicinity. Those with pacemakers should avoid it like plague.

Thank you doctor. I'm healed. I'll put in a good word with God for you.

LOL! I was wondering how many replies it would take before he was pinged!

That's very naughty.

There was nothing naughty about it, except that in the medieval times your computer would crash trying to keep up with everyone pinging Arthur McGowan that night.:)

Pong.
It is the appropriate reply to a ping, you see.

Now that's funny. I almost pinged you to my ping on the ping thread, but I decided not to bother you...and you show up on the very next post. LOL

GMTA.

That worked well!

I'm brain dead after this week, and didn't remember Corporal Ping.

I did remember FReeper ping.

I don't mean to brag, but sweetie, you've never been pinged until you've been pinged by Allegra or me.

We own all the best ping list categories and are considered by our pingees to be the undisputed Masters of Ping.

For example, Allegra (also known as the Tigress of the Tigris) owns the "Donkeys of Mass Destruction" ping list.

I (a.k.a. Ocelot of the San Jacinto) am in possession of the "Camels of Mass Destruction" ping list.

In addition, Allegra and I share various naked-theme ping lists and other ping lists of marvelous oddity.

If you have any doubts that Allegra and I are the keepers of FR's most intriguing ping lists, just ask Flyer... or sign up and experience it for yourself.

Very...gentle. Now, while you please add me onto those naked-theme ping lists, I'm going to take a cold shower.
