Integrated Services Digital Network

ISDN is a communications standard for sending voice, video, and data over digital telephone lines or telephone wires. It supports data transfer rates of 64 Kbps and can support two lines at once (calles B channels), which allow you to use both lines to transfer data; this gives you data rates of 128 Kbps.
Wow! I had no idea ISDN was so much better than PSTN.

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons 

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.
The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!
