The NSA has a CryptoKids page set up to teach children how to (er…) encrypt? You’ll learn all about the NSA/CSS because (and I quote) they’re “.. America’s real codemakers and codebreakers.” Real American Heros! Right up there with Wal-Mart Greeting Man.

Now I can’t really fault the NSA for providing some kid oriented content on crypto. That in and of itself is kind of neat. It’s the wonky as hell characters that are hillarious. And check out the meet the cryptokids section at wonkette where all their foibles are broken down…

And no, I didn’t check the name of the site before I used “wonky” in the sentence. So I’m not getting rid of it.
