AIN EXERCISES
If you can read this OUT LOUD, you have a strong mind. And better than that: Alzheimer’s is a long, long, way down the road before it ever gets anywhere near you.

If you can read the following paragraph, forward it to your friends and the person who sent it to you with 'Yes' in the subject line. Only very good minds can read this. This is weird, but interesting!

A great way to exercise the mind in the morning over coffee!
Thank you

I remember doing this. It has to do with nonsense reading. Some people have a better ability to discern words even if they're grammatically incorrect.

My friends and I have been using this idea for decades to generate passwords that are easy to remember.

Ha! I can do these things but still can't remember shit!

The first two lines were gibberish; but then I blinked, and it was all clear.
This must be how my youngest found over seventy four leaf (or more) clovers
In our yard when he was about six.

Tip - it's easier to find the 'N' if you look up and down a couple of rows at a time... pretend you're reading Chinese.

I was about 50/50 on the 1st one, but I kicked serious butt on the letter finding.

Depends on how whether you are driving 20 or 95.

I'm always at 95.

Got it all with no problems thank God! I do forget things on occasion and once in a while I have been driving and got confused as to where I was (in a familiar spot). I'd like to attribute that to a busy life or maybe the 70's coming back to haunt me

unfortunately, the password guessers all speak 'leet these days.

I use passwordmaker and let it make up good, hard passwords... the beauty of it, is that it's an algorithm that takes a single master password, the site you're visiting, and a recipe, and makes up a good hard password on the fly. and doesn't store it anywhere. given the same master password, recipe and site name, it always generates the same password for that site. this gives you a single password to remember, and unique strong passwords on every site you visit.

passwords like H[3LJ'G{VfIk, which are pretty much unguessable and would take ages to crack, even with todays computers.

Back where I worked in the 90's they had one and regenerated the passwords every 4 weeks and all the passwords were posted on people's monitors with Postit notes.
A password which you can't remember is useless. Besides which most systems lock you out after 3 tries.

I had a little trouble with the 7s as Ts, but everything else fell into place.

If you can read this OUT LOUD, you have a strong mind.

Actually if you have a bit of dyslexia this stuff is dead easy because we write that way and then have to fix it so the rest of the world can read it.
