Don't do anything described in the pfollowing text pfile.
It's illegal. It's here so that you can do nipfty little
school reportz on hacking/pfreaking/etc. We don't do this,
so you shouldn't either.

You may ask, "What is phone patching?" Well, my friend, it is a neat little thing to write a too-short LcA t-file on when you haven't put a thing out in over a month. Actually, it is where you either sneak up to your neighbor's house when the are asleep or not there, open the little gray box on the side of their house, stick a phone line/cord in and either sit there and call phone sex numbers, or run a line to your house from there and phrack on their line. The latter being both stupid and dangerous.
Now. Ma Bell has done some pretty stupid things in the past, but making little gray "customer service" boxes on the sides of people's homes is about as stupid as I've seen her get. The only thing separating these boxes from the outside world is a screw or latch. They do have little holes in them so that people can put big, nasty locks trough them (which is what I suggest you do RIGHT NOW), even though they are plastic and can be melted quite easily.
What you do to get inside of these things, is take a screwdriver (if it is one of the newer ones, which it probably is), stick it in the corresponding screw, turn a couple times, and voila! It is opened!

+--wires--+What you can do here is either take a portable phone and plug it into the phone jack, if a phone jack is installed. On a normal, 1-line house, the only phone line will be installed on the right. In a two-line house, there will be two sets of red and green wires. You can take a phone line, strip it, attach two alligator clips to the red and green wires, and hook them directly onto the terminals, so they will fly off when you take off running instead of having to sit there and unplug that clumzy telephone wire. If you feel especially malicious, you can completely sever the wires, indefinitely disconnecting their line, destroy the box, and/or put a 12-ohm resistor on the red and green wires (making their conversations faint and decidedly short-lived). If you are feeling especially malicious and have lots of time and wire, you can hook all of the neighbor's phone lines together, thus, every time someone picks up the phone and dials, all of the lines will dial at once, and everyone will be able to hear the conversation when they pick up their phone.
Ok, my pfingers are getting tired, so I had better stop.
