The Cat, the Witch, and the Elusive Password
“Cattywampus catastrophe?” Inna Walword guessed, standing awkwardly in the narrow alleyway. The buildings here were made of stone, and all the buildings reached up to at least ten stories high. This made the alleyway seem much smaller than it actually was, but despite this and despite it being well after eleven at night, it felt cozy. Or at least as cozy as an alleyway could be.

Got My Eyes On You
Reset your password. Three words that mean either you have forgotten your password, you have given it to someone else and don’t want to allow them access to that particular account anymore or someone has cracked your password and is using your account without permission. That’s what we’re all worried about, isn’t it? Or at least that’s what we should be worried about. But most of us aren't.

Tap battles of Attrition.
From my cubical, I couldn't help but hear the channel surfing in the break room. The secomd byte was from an anchorman. “Computer hackers have become a reality of the twenty century and how to protect your data. What can you tell us about digital security?”

The Cave of Blunders
We open near an unremarkable hillside in a windswept canyon in the dead of night as 40 thieves descend upon it after an evening of looting. Al'ahmaq, the head thief, pulls up to a rock lying against the hill and carefully announces "Capital Q, lowercase y, 3, dollar sign, equal sign, 4, 7, plus!"

The Three miserable words
I stood by my desk pacing back and forth just staring at my screen, and I hate to admit it but my eyes were starting to see things that weren’t even there. For a moment I saw a glimpse of hope, a glimpse of retrieving my information from my account. I understand the security measures that some websites offer to secure one’s own account, only thing is I did a pretty good job of securing my account well, so well in fact I had forgotten my password. I was 2 attempts away from my account being locked. “Damn it!” I thought, “I need to log in to my account by tonight! I can’t take out my date without money!” I spoke. “Wait don’t I have money saved in my emergency fund box?!” I ran as fast as I could to my closet door and opened the box! “EMPTY! How!? Oh right” I thought, I paid the mechanic to fix my car earlier that week.

The Five Stages of too Many Attempts
My hands froze hovering over the keyboard and mouse. There might have been a slight twitch in my eye, though honestly, that’s not where my focus was. The oppressive glow of the fluorescent lights off the government-gray walls for once is not the current cause of my forming headache.
