Password not strong enough.
 
Ye Gods! How strong do you want it to be?

 
My guess is, the password checker demands non-alphanumeric characters in
there as well.
 
Which is a dumb thing to require.

Agreed.  Silly rules that don't help protect you.

Looks like a good password except that you posted it.  Mine is 24 characters
long and not random if you know the pattern that made it.  My wife hasn't
been able to type it in even if it is written down for her to type in.

A pharmacy site rejected a proposed long password because it contained three
characters in my email address.  I just call them when something is needed. 
I'd rather talk to a human anyway.

FWIW, I've yet to be hacked.  I've only been online since before the
Internet.

I'm also glad to see you both still enjoying life.
