My awesome rematch Santa punkrockerwee went above and beyond the call of duty and gave me lock picks and two books on lock picking (as well as a letter). Also, they must have really jumped on it when I was matched with them, because the gifts arrived only two days after I reported not receiving a gift and was re-matched with a new Santa. Yay speedy delivery!

I am a big fan of both computer and real-world security (or more specifically, the circumvention of it), so this was a perfect gift. I've been playing around with them all day, and I already feel much closer to my goal of "Criminal Mastermind."

Incidentally, I was able to pick a residential deadbolt lock (complete with pick-resistant top pins) in about a minute and a half on my first try. Home security is a big joke.
