I've run into a number of blog posts about this freakish monstrosity, so I'm inflicting it on y'all:

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Warning: it's even more gross than you think it is.

My netbook is dead. So now looing for a new one in $200 range or under. I'm going to look through my usual sites. Does anyone have suggestions either as to model/brand or site.

HTML/Javascript question:
We have a form with some textareas on it. Sometimes we need to disable a textarea - we do that by putting a "disabled" in the textarea tag. But then we lose the vertical scrollbar functionality. Is there a way of disabling a textarea but still keep the vertical scrollbar functionality?
eta: A quick google says:
Why do you have to use textarea anyway? Just put the text outside. Put it in a div and put a border on it if you want the block to look like a textarea.
Could do that. Anyone know of another way? eta: Can I still get a scrollbar that way?
eta: OK, I used Javascript to set the readonly property to true, instead of using the "disabled" thing. The textarea is not grayed out but my boss says that's OK.

Whoo! I just utilized my new every two to replace the usb mobile broadband modem which was severely bent because of, umm, dropping. I replaced it with Verizon's little mifi, which means both the SO & I are on the internet at the same time! And shortly my Cradlepoint router will show up, and I can plug this one up, and my ethernet devices will have internet! Like my Wii! And Vonage, so we'll have VOIP again! Whoo!
