Small browser window good....
"I always have my thumb and finger poised on the ALT-TAB when reading posts, especially when that small browser window has a picture of "..the usual suspects no doubt...;)

I keep a 'full window" of something work related open with the small dz.com stuff going on top of that, safety is never more than a mouse click outside of the fun window pane.
Also minimise the start bar if you leave your desk, but are still logged on....put the moose over the top of the start bar border till you see up and down arrow, and drag down it till its invisible.....then no tell tale buttons are there. Lo tech solutions no doubt and these won't protect you from any web watching type stuff that bastard emplyers use to make us work...grrrr....>:(>:(

Oh and try and avoid snorting coffee, bagels, danish etc all over your work station.;) Its a dead giveaway.

I should be insulted by such suggestions.:o:(
yes the sarcasm switch is on...
Just today I have updated many pages, containing for example such intriguing topics as "European Union structural funds projects" and "Youth political seminar in Helsinki 5.-6.11.2002".

I use Opera, which has a multiple document interface. Since I do web-stuff, I'm supposed to have a browser open, and there are plenty of work-related web pages only ctrl-tab away.

OOY!!! OOOOOOOYYY! I'm awake! I'm drinking coffee, though I don't think I comprehend anything yet. Thank God it's a tad colder today. Went to see the Ring last night. That was senseless. For the first time in my life I walked out of a movie, waited 25 minutes and walked into the next showing room where they were screening Jackass. I highly recommend it. Quality intellectual entertainment. I laughed for 90 minutes.

I'm the luckiest. My boss knows I post and visit DZ.com often and he doesn't mind. How cool is that. B| I even show him the boobie pics and funny attachments and he enjoys them just as much.:ph34r:

Scratch, I'm trying to get Mel to come and visit me this weekend, could you say a good word for me? She really needs time away from that bastard..>:(

I think the US Immigration will let US citizens sponsor immediate family members. You could become a Rodriguez brother -- think that'd work?

Having my usual bagel with cream cheese and pepper jelly. I generally keep them in my refridgerator in my room then toast it and enjoy it after I finish doing breakfast duty.

Lots less indigestion when you can eat in peace! I also make my own coffee here. I guess I am a snob in my own right, but I like what I like.

Kerry, would you like cream and sugar with that? I also have hazelnut creamer.

Nice Taskbar. Are we able to label you a window whore ? ;) If we had that many open at one time our PC's would crash.
If nothing else, that JPEG has taught me the word 'Start' in another language. :)

I stir feelings in others they themselves don't understand. KA'CHOW !

It is creamer that goes in your coffee and tastes like hazelnuts. I love it when it turns cold for some reason. I
In summer I usually drink coffee black or with regular cream. I figure I'm sweet enough that I don't need sugar!

PM me your address and I'll send you a container.

You guys are so way beyond me technology wise. I just leave DZ.com up all the time and don't worry about it. The worst part is the stupid filter often restricts my seeing anything.

Hey, is anyone seeing sun today? This is the 4th dreary day in a row. I had to make my own sunshine this morning.

I've been using both English and Finnish windows all my adult life, most of the time I don't even notice which one I'm using at the moment...:)
On this(at work) computer I have:
Windows, Office, IE and the Email-software in Finnish
and
Opera, Netscape, my text-editor(EditPlus2) and Paint shop Pro in English...

We're supposed to see some yellow stuff today. I just hope it's sunshine and not any other yellow stuff :S

Nah, i don't think it lost its way, its just that somebody else got all the rays, so by the time it reached you there was none left....[:/][:/][:/]

Trust me, this a true and scientific explanation
