How do I get hold of a real person at Homeland Security? - Vanity

[alexander_busek]

middle-eastern languages (croatian, slavic, arabic, etc)

Croatian is a Slavic language - and neither can be properly called by any stretch of the imagination "Middle Eastern."

Sorry, but due to the Patriot Act, I will not communicate on the Internet with people who are on the watch list.

ping - know anyone who might be interested in following up?

Have you changed your Yahoo password? No one should be able to add your screen name to Groups without a valid login on the account.

[CindyDawg]

Not getting much help here either are you? lol

You might page Cindy over on the thread matrix.

OK ... obviously someone has hacked your account.

Have you tried changing your password? Think of a song, for example. ... Jingle Bells. Choose the first letter from the first phrase, then add some characters to the mess. You will wind up with a simple to remember, yet almost impossible password to hack.

If you use my example, "Jingle Bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way"; then upper case 123, then lower case 123; would give you:

JBjbjatw!@#123 ... as an example.

My apologies, looks like I need to dig out that atlas again.

How about “Languages of regions where American troops have done peace-keeping missions in the last 20 years”?

[Doogle]

..JBjbjatw!@#123...hey, how'd he know my password?

[goodnesswins]

Maybe jveritas here on FR can help with the languages...

[Ellendra]

Thank you, smacking myself in the head for missing the obvious! lol

Just sent the local office an email with one of the weird messages included. Figured that’s easier than me trying to describe what it says when I can’t read it.

[I see my hands]

Neat little memory/password trick!

So..

Jingle bells, Santa smells, BBs through the air.
Oh! What fun it is to ride in Fruit of the Loom underwear..
might be: jbsmbtta1225

Ping jveritas I he knows Arabic.

[alexander_busek]

How about “Languages of regions where American troops have done peace-keeping missions in the last 20 years”?

Wouldn't that be about as non-specific as saying "languages of countries in which McDonald's franchises are in business?"

[Ellendra]

I’ve changed my password since this started. It must be possible to add people somehow, I’ll have to check with the moderators that I know.

[CindyDawg]

Just by posting here, I imagine you got their attention, since they probably follow sites. What a job huh....to surf FR all day:’) My luck, I would get assigned to a liberal forum!

[Jet Jaguar]

Ping. FWIW.

[Richard Kimball]

Make a joke while you’re getting on an airplane. That usually gets their attention.
