Life as viewed from the skewed perspective of a mystery writer

Passwords, a touch of insanity

     How many passwords do you have?  I’ve changed all of mine.  If a psychiatrist ever saw my new ones, I’d be residing in the nut hut.  I don’t have passwords by the ‘dozens’  but I do have several.  Most places today require a minimum of 8 characters and at least one should be a number.

     Creating passwords is  interesting.  Passwords are also a bit telling.  Many people use the names of their pets–not a good idea folks.  You need to find cleverer things than that.  Don’t use your birthdays, anniversaries, or the grandkids names either.

     How creative can you get?  As creative as you want so long as you can remember them.  I have had to change passwords a few times because I forgot what one I used for the account.

     Some of mine  can tell you exactly where my head was at the time of creation.  No, I’m not spilling the beans.  I don’t want to change them all again.
