"Never quarrel with a man who buys ink by the barrel"
-Variously attributed to Mark Twain, William Greener, and Congressman Charles Brownson (R, IN)
Most of us who have spent a life worth living have known the person in the second frame. If we were lucky, they were our college roommate. If we were very lucky, we escaped being attached to the felony charges which ensued.
In my own case, it was fraud by wire, which was the closest charge to "hacking" that Florida knew how to bring in 1996. Jorden Hazen wasn't my roommate, but we (myself and several friends) all had accounts on his Unix machine, which was "his" only in the fact that the University hadn't noticed that it was A: missing, and B: still located on their premises, but in a location they didn't know existed and connected to two networks that they didn't know anyone else knew existed.
Zach and I may or may not have picked several locks that night to gain entry to the attic of a dusty old administrative building, and then carried said server away and dumped it into Lake Alice.
After his acquittal (on the grounds that no hard evidence was ever located), Jordan may or may not have expressed his gratitude for that event which, by any reliable account, never took place.

I love all those max-loadout pics that take place during specified manufacturer publicity shoots or the one test-flight where they never actually shoot any of them just to make sure the jet won't fall out of the sky. Normal AA combat load for an FA-18C was 4/2/2, double drops, and gun. Pics like this are like Youtube cover pics of the "Biggest motorcycle engines ever" and it's a 16v Cummins photoshopped on a Ruckus just to get you to click.
