Captain Kirk Was Responsible, Apparently



It’s Password Day!  My email password is no longer “99R3dBall00ns”


He's right.  It's now "99LuftBall0ns".  It's a little harder for Jeremy to type, therefore, harder to hack.  


So, everyone knows that the song "99 Lufballons" is a protest song against nuclear war written in 1983.  The English translation adds the Red to the title, since Lutballons really has no indication of the color of the aforementioned balloons.  It's a rather depressing sing, in which 99 balloons (red or otherwise) are released into the air, mistaken by a global defense system for incoming missiles, and cause widespread death and destruction through nuclear war.  The key messages here being, nuclear war is a bad thing, and balloons cause it.  Or something.  

Either way, I had to change my email password today, since that sort of thing expires every now and again, so I thought I'd share it with you here. 


And by that, of course, Jeremy means that neither this, nor any of the "Password Day" email passwords have ever been used as Jeremy's email password.  It's true...so you really don't need to go trying to hack into his email.  There's nothing in there but work crap anyway.
