love in a time of crypto
Thursday, November 21st, 2002
Jeremy’s parents have been staying with us, and seem mystified by certain passages of our banter. This morning Jeremy had the Black Ops of TCP/IP slide show on screen.
R: Alice and Bob, up to their old tricks. I don’t know how they stay out of gaol. They’re clearly nefarious.
J: Those pesky kids.
R: I should have put them in the novel.
J: Still can!
R: “Alice and Bob got married… it was a very private wedding.”
J: “Oh good, so Bob overcame the man in the middle then?”
We fall about laughing.
Jan, J’s mother, frankly: These are dreadful jokes.
