Well, if the goods aren't already there they can be planted easy enough. [just kidding] I was kidding about it but the subject is way too serious.

It's one of the truly terrifying things about the Internet age that we live in. It is now possible to completely ruin a person's life and career by planting a few images on their computer, and they are left with no plausible excuse. Nobody would ever believe that they didn't put them there. Kinda' spooky, that.

Yeah, it is scary.

Our IT guy Jim and I kid about the same thing often. We have targets at the college that we think should have files found. It's our stress relief mechanism outside earshot of the clueless academic liberals who have never actually had to hold a real job and work. Since Jim works primarily over on the main campus he has to deal with those people on a daily basis. They are offended by his concealed carry license and his weapons collection. He argues that one on a regular basis. One of the *most* incensed over this is the dean over my area. None of us on my campus are very thrilled with her... so, we discuss these "plans." It makes it easier to deal with her and others. Sometimes.
