Dateline - The Internet. This is a story even Scott Pelley is tired of hearing, "Seems like there is another one of these every week."

It’s the feature where I read a story that we’ve all heard so many times that all of us can easily fill in the blanks.

Nicely done.

Here we go.

The Internet – This is a story even Scott Pelley is tired of hearing, “Seems like there is another one of these every week.”

Of course, he’s talking about Home Depot.

Right, Home Depot, the latest company to tell its customers to take a close look at their credit card accounts, because of a possible security breach.

Which is a technical terms meaning oh s***!

No one’s sure yet, but it appears that hackers targeting Home Depot’s database may have been able to access millions of photos of naked power tools.

No! I don’t think so.

Actually all the company will say is that there is evidence of what’s being described as unusual activity.

Which is a technical term meaning oh s***!

And so once again we have to head for the nearest computer as fast as possible and, change our passwords.

Which will keep us safe until the next time this happens.

At which point we’ll change our passwords again.

Right.

We’ll keep doing that until we forget the damn passwords.

But that’s actually not a bad thing because at that point our nude pictures will be so secure that even we we can’t get them.

Which is a good thing because they were pretty embarrassing anyway.

Since none us look like Jennifer Lawrence.

Actually, I have been working out fairly regularly.

We’re not interested.

I see.
