One of the jobs I have is designing for this monthly, lifestyle magazine. I go into their office 2 or 3 days a month to do this. Yesterday, I was there and as we worked, our printer kept spitting out pages and pages of, well, nothing. This nothing changed into wingdings, the wingdings got bigger and bigger to the point of only one wingding per page. A large club, then a heart — ok, um, what are they telling us — gambling? We should go to Vegas? Then a large 'non-smoking' sign. — Hey, I quit already, what more do you want. Then a bunch of shapes that made up a fish, a dead looking fish — ack, is that a threat? Wait, I don't have any fish. Then a cat, then just the word 'weekend' with a question mark after it. Yikes! Then we get a poem, actually a song, written by the hackers telling us about how they have been 'exploiting your security since 2002' with a picture of a boat made up of their name (which I won't say here cause, of course they are watching me, like for sure). We then got this message: WE (on it's own page) KN (by itself) and OW. YOWZA!!! We googled the hackers and discovered their site, the Love Boat theme played as a welcome — you know keeping with the boat theme — and we were suddenly put at ease with it's catchy tune. The last messages we received were about 20 pages of email addresses from Fox's X-Factor. That was my cue to call it a night.
