14 kinds of game in a fun packed day. Why 14, I have no idea. ---

I’m starting to smell a rat here. Hmmm, come to think of it, a rat would fit very nicely on the tines of a pitchfork. OTOH, I had to change my “high security” password today…you’ll never guess the first thing that popped into my head. So now, I’m stuck with it for the next 60 days, no matter what. ---

Erm, the thing about high security passwords is that you _don’t_ publish them in internet forums. ---

[QUOTE=Peter Morris] Erm, the thing about high security passwords is that you _don’t_ publish them in internet forums. [/QUOTE] Point taken. But since none of you work with me, and since I access a dozen different systems, and use a SecurID to boot, I’m guessing that I’m probably okay. Now, where did I put that rat poison? ---

[QUOTE=gigi] The first thing about high security passwords is there are no high security passwords. [/QUOTE] I don’t know, 5 gigs of randomly generated UTF-8 characters would be pretty secure.

14 kilometers of gravel in a finely paved driveway. Makes sense to me, anyway. ---

This thread has been quite amusing while aimlessly searching the Interweb for a way to pass time among the racks of computers I must humbly serve… My best crack at it: 14 kinds of grain in a full pint draft Laughable…but I’m not that smart. 🙂 ---

I did a google search for “14 kings”, and sure enough, there were only 14 folks ruling Egypt in the Ptolemaic dynasty. So… 14 kings of 'gypt in the Full Ptolemaic Dynasty? It’s the best I could think of, folks. ---
