After I got a new computer at my old job, the password was "changeme" for the longest time.

May 13, 2005 | LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) -- Nebraska's ban on gay marriage was struck down by a federal judge who ruled the measure interferes with the rights of gay couples and people in a host of other living arrangements, including foster parents and adopted children. The constitutional amendment, which defined marriage as a union between a man and a woman, was passed overwhelmingly by the voters in November 2000.

Well, that's something.

I expect that the Judge's decision will not hold up on appeal, but we'll see this case as a justification of a federal admendment to ban gay marriage. The admendment to ban gay marriage will be pushed in fall of next year.

We have to change our passwords at work every month. It's not supposed to be anything like the last 5 passwords, but there are ways to get around it. I've been using combinations that relate to fandom.

faints from shock

Oh, I'd give 'em a fake password and take the coffee card. Or, if I'm feeling particularly ethical, I'll give them a password I used 10 years ago and would never use again. Strictly speaking, I would be giving them my actual password. Just, you know, a bit dated.

But you gotta like the automatic letter to the editor wizard.

I might give out a fake password for a coffee card. I'd never give out my real password because it's that rarity that is hard to guess, but easy for me to remember.

Hey, lori, doesn't the new NASA Administrator look a whole lot like The Mayor?

My passwords at my second to last job were always things like "newjob" "outtahere" "hatethis". I smiled each time I logged in, because I knew it would possibly be the last time for eight hours.

Here, we have to change our password something like every 8 weeks

I have about 6 passwords I have to remember at work of which 4 have to be changed every month. I have to write them down or I can't remember.

For all the other places on the internet - email, b.org, livejournal - I use the same password. It's too much work to have to remember seperate passwords but no one would ever guess it anyway.
