What is old is new again

Of all the cereal box prizes, the “spy” ones were the best. -

sometimes is good to go back to the beginning…

It’s been a long time since I got the type of cereal that would have a “prize” in it. Do they still do that?

I don’t think any of the prizes I got were decoder rings.

“Be sure to drink your Ovaltine.”

Does it say “Captain Midnight” on it?

Speaking of "brand-new algorithm: A kid once said to an adult who was always losing their phone, “Wouldn’t it be neat if they invented a phone that had a cord attaching it to the wall?” Yeah, that kid got a quick history lesson that day.

“css” !?

Ask Ralphie, Jason.

“Don’t forget to drink your Ovaltine”.

Want some bacon with your scrambler eggs?

Good ol’ rot26 encryption. Nothing beats it

Actually, Jason should know that one ring (The One Ring) cannot decode all the systems that he mentioned.

Jason forgot sha256, the basis for Blockchain.

I miss the fun of getting prizes in cereal and Cracker Jacks!
