Btw, it's late, I'm at work, and I'm barely awake... so I'm rambling. Maybe I'll look back at this and wonder what the hell I was doing, or I might keep it around for a while, but until then.. there's a short glimpse of me.
Oh, and don't ask about the "6717"... Except that now that I've said that, you're almost obligated to ask, aren't you? Well damn! ..... I guess to save both of us some trouble, I might as well tell ya about it:
Let me start by saying I'm a geek to the core (I'm an E2 noder after all). Very bored in a mid level Electrical Engineering class at MTU one day, teacher says we have to come up with a four digit pin (since last four of socials weren't allowed anymore, and it's probably not a good idea to use my PIN (no, not PIN Number ...but I'm rambling again)). So I took the letters
"L---O---B---O"
(I've got a thing for wolves)and converted them to their numeric equivalent (a=1, b=2, c=3, ....):
"12---13---2---13"
Well that's not four digits, is it... hmmmm, let's divide by two:
"6---7.5---1---7.5"
still not quite. Hell, let's just round:
"6---7---1---7"
There we go. And I've been using it ever since. Did I mention that I was really bored in class that day.
Well, know that I've bored you to death,
