10.3: Use new say command for easy Terminal speech
What would be really funny, SSH to your Mac, use osascript to turn the volume all the way up on your Mac (set volume 6) and then "say" something to someone at home, like your wife or kids!!! Like I might say: "Hello? This is the crazy and possesed Mac speaking to you. Do what I say or I will start saying knock knock jokes."
works via SSH
