Will The History Channel's Next Reality Show Be:

The Next Big Leaker!

Watch each week as young computer geniuses compete with each other to be The Next Big Leaker. Watch them maneuver their way into top secret agencies to work as Systems Analysts and compete to find and disseminate the most embarrassing material they can find. See their backbiting and sabotage attempts as they try to one-up their competition.

What shenanigans will they get up to as they make their super-secret moves and hack their way to stardom? You'll be the first to know each week.

Your vote matters! Vote each week for your favorite and watch the loser be exposed and arrested.

A Wikileaks Presentation
Produced by Julian Assange
Executive Producer - Glenn Greenwald
Directed by Anonymous

On your big flat screens in Fall 2013!

All the new history reality shows are geared towards red necks. Now if you had something like Trailer Park Boys, a Canadian TV reality show, that would work very well.
Bubbles and his cats,



Beloved Canadian series to return with new season to be broadcast online, and new movie.

I just thought of what the most disgusting secret possible would be.

BTW, Rose Mary Woods is not involved. Just to let you know. That's what I hear, anyhow...

Can one of us old dinosaurs who remember when the central processor took up half of a basketball court play?
You know those good old days of Man Vs. System.
Where you had to all but hack the hell out of it, just to get logged on.
Systems Analysts these days gots it easy.
Wouldn't stand a chance with some of us 'old boys' that played with the 'big dogs'.
What can I tell ya....

Have Assembler, will reveal state secrets.



Ha, HA.

You can speak REXX

Even somewhere in late 1999; COBAL. Look, just give me the source I'll make sure nothing bad happens.
If you can deal with "The Cross Of Midnight", turning a century isn't going to trouble you.
Good times. Ha HA.
Listen.........
What ever else Ed Snowden may or may not be.
He's a pup. A kiddey.

And AMD rules, even if the darned things are a cross between a 'puter' and a hot plate.

The new show called something like 'God, Guns & Cars' is just over the top and the latest reason you can't take that channel seriously anymore. It's also blatantly obvious who their target audience is with the ads they run. 'The Military Channel' and 'Military History Channel' has went neocon jingo full tilt. It's absolutely unwatchable now.
