In case you've ever wondered how cool random passwords like "rug1wh9p" are generated, you probably won't get much satisfaction from Alfred Whitehead's coworker's code. Actually, he shows you a great way *not* to generate random passwords. It is creative though. For extra fun, try guessing how many rows this will return without running the query.
INSERT INTO
dbo.attendee_users (password)
SELECT a.A + b.B + c.C + d.D AS Password
FROM
(SELECT 'a' AS A
UNION
SELECT 'r'
UNION
SELECT 'i') a
CROSS JOIN
(SELECT '5' AS B
UNION
SELECT '2'
UNION
SELECT '19'
UNION
SELECT '4'
UNION
SELECT '87a3') b
CROSS JOIN
(SELECT 'vgh' AS C
UNION
SELECT '8R7y') c
CROSS JOIN
(SELECT '6' AS D
UNION
SELECT '7'
UNION
SELECT '8'
UNION
SELECT '9'
UNION
SELECT '1') d
