I recently changed my e-mail address in my OFC "Profile". When you change your e-mail address, the program assigns you a NEW password. For years, I've had a password that I'd created and was easy to remember . . . now I've got a new series of random letters/numbers that I have to now memorize . . . . . . . jest lettin' y'now . . . | ||

Joined: November 2002 Posts: 1300 Location: Madison, Wisconsin | The talk of passwords makes me think of the "new" 3 digit security code on the back of your credit card that I am required to ask for when I do a credit card sale on the phone. What good is a security code if you need to tell people what it is? | ||

Joined: February 2003 Posts: 68 Location: Malden, Massachusetts | If you haven't already noticed, Cliff loves to bitch about life's petty little annoyances. That's why we love him - it's that George Carlin thing...."is it just me or do these things bother the shit out of everybody?" You guys are too quick to come up with a solution. Let him stew for a while and enjoy yourself. As he reads this he's already taking me apart for using "little" and "petty" together - totally redundant....isn't that right, pal? Go ahead - let me have it. | ||

Joined: September 2003 Posts: 9301 Location: south east Michigan | I processed a credit card sale (without the card present)a few minutes ago. I needed to enter the "security" code, the street address, and the zip code to get it done. And I think that if you do not enter all that crap they hit you with an extra service fee. | ||

It's a hash of the card number (and maybe the expiry), so it's more of a validation code than anything else. The CVV2/CVC2/CID (depending on card issuer) uses Triple DES encryption. Without the issuer's private key, you can't 'fake' the hash from just the info embossed on the front of the card. | ||

Joined: February 2004 Posts: 2487 | Assclown!!!!!!! The more I got ta think-n bout that word the more I started gigglin. Man that is some funny shit Cliff. You'd be a good stand in for the guy with the clown suit on Stankervision! Don't care much for the show, but the clown has me pissing myself sometimes with his completely misserable, sarcastic, and mean spirited comments. I love that kind of humor. Randy | ||

Joined: March 2002 Posts: 14842 Location: NJ | When Rick & I were leaving our band t'do the duo-thing, we were looking for a name. "Retarded AssClowns" was suggested. We almost went with it . . . Just for a "goof" we've often thought about getting a couple clownsuits and some make-up and doing an "OpenMic" somewhere under that name. Just get up there and be REALLY terrible . . . with our luck, we'd get booked . . . :rolleyes: | ||

Though I'm not exactly sure, is brimstone a dry heat? Cause I think we got a lock on the humidity. | ||

Joined: December 2003 Posts: 13987 Location: Upper Left USA | I did try for "Free Beer" but I got that "Lutheran" stare and didn't bring it up again. My heroes on the marquee contest are still "Bare Naked Ladies". don't care who you are - that's funny! | ||

Joined: February 2004 Posts: 2487 | This is one diverse group! We have examples across the board from groups that are made up of; The Old & The Young, The Naive & The overly experienced, The Holy & The Unholy, The Unknowing & The Overly Educated, The Musicians & The Wannabees, The Wealthy & The Less Than Wealthy, The level headed & The Emotionally Dysfunctional, The Opinionated & The Confused, The Assclowns & The Assclown spotters, The Insane & The Not Quite as Insane, And the list goes on & on. I just have to say; I find that I log in for a few minutes each day from work or at home. I am not a web site junkie I just think this group is very entertaining and the knowledge that is freely given concerning the guiars I happen to like is nice to! Cliff your a pisser. I hope I get to run into you and the rest of this bunch at the factory tour someday. I'll bet I will learn a few things on guitar I thought I had figured out pretty well on my own and share a few laughs as well. Randy | ||

Joined: February 2004 Posts: 2487 | I am sure there will be a few categories I missed. But I figure most everyone, who is a member of this club, fit's into at least one of these slots! So Just fyi; I know I hit four or five myself, I sure hope I'm not an "Assclown" though. Randy | ||
