Taffy000,
Yeah, like we all don't have enough PIN's and passwords to keep track of these days!

hahahah
Yeah I hadn't thought of that angle that you're "suppose to" have a different password for everything.  Yeah, right!!

SYMPHONY,
Ya know, HACKERS REALLY SUCK!!!! What's up with them?? Ya know the ones I hate the most are the ones that purposely create and distribute viruses and worms. It's just pure evil. Why don't they just go out  and randomly beat on kids and the elderly?

Ya know, benzinha,

I actually use the same 2 or 3 user ID's and passwords for most of my sites (including the important ones) which probably is pretty stupid of me, but , hell, it's easier than remembering a whole bunch of different ones. However, your idea of the "stupidme" kind of passwords is a GREAT idea!!

This is a personal bitch of mine also
I keep a small notepad next to the computer just filled with member names, sign in names, and passwords to each site. Its a real pain in the ass! You made your point Madame, and its a good one.

Spitfire and Passion, if they are a silly site, then use one id and
password for all of them. Something like 1stupidme for id and anidiot2 for password !?!?!? I picked one for all stupid sites and just use that one over and over.....saves time and memory and Rolodex cards.

PassionF,
I know! I think that's the ONLY way to keep up with all of them! I have recently realized that I can't keep adding accounts to my Roledex cause it's getting too full with all the crap!

A few years ago I designed a form where you can list your on-line accounts--date column, Name of company, User ID, Password, and any other pertinent info. To date, I have five full sheets of these in my desk drawer. That's how I keep up with mine.
