You can do neat little things like:

grep "Jun 19" /var/log/messages | espeak

You can have your computer read your message log to you. Granted, this is kind of dorky but you could apply it to something more useful like creating a Perl script to parse your Thunderbird or Evolution mail file and reading back the email body text to you.
