World Wonders Who Was Responsible for Mim-cha Hack

Bloggers, chatters, and just about everyone who uses a computer experienced a 'hack' from an unknown party yesterday. The odd post interrupted online transactions world wide, and read the same everywhere. At 4:31am, EST, the words "WE ARE MIM-CHA" appeared on any sort of computer screen connected to the World Wide Web.
Several people responded to this prompt, but Mim-cha, whoever that may be, sat silent for approximately three minutes, and then signed off with the equally cryptic comment, "We'll be back."
The CIA is investigating, but thus far, no body has taken official credit for the hack.

Awesome. My only quibble:

>>Palin Introduces Decoy Robots to Terminate Infected

(headline from March, 2012)<<

Um, what if the vampires can read?

-Kirk

P@ said...

Hrm. Good point, Kirk. Although just because they would know that there are robots out there, doesn't mean they'd be able to recognize them. I mean, after the first few "tasty human turns out to be a killer robot" events, I think the vampires would realize what was up.

Plus, the press legitimately does stuff like that all the time.
