Here's another old one, from the days when computers were marvels to be
admired, rather than vulnerable assets to be locked away.  The following
sign used to hang in the machine room at UCLA (and still does, for all I
know):

     ACHTUNG!  ALLES LOOKENSPEEPERS!  DAS COMPUTENMACHINE IST NICHT FUR

     GEFINGERPOKEN UND MITTENGRABEN.  IST EASY SNAPPEN DER SPRINGENWERK,

     BLOWEN FUSEN UND POPPENCORKEN MIT PITZENSPARKEN.  DAS RUBBERNECKEN

     SIGHTSEEREN KEEPEN DAS HANTS IN DAS POCKETS, RELAXEN UND VATCH DAS

     BLINKENLIGHTS!
