Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Hey, thanks for the thought, though. I'm done stomping and flinging soft and unbreakable objects around the room, now. We're all good.

Anyone know how to protect an Excel 2007 worksheet so that I can let my freelancers select from the drop-down menus I've created, but not accidentally delete them? In Word there's an option to "restrict access to filling in forms" which is what I want here, but I can't find the equivalent option.

[edit: Nevermind, I think I actually don't need this. Yay.]

Speaking of frustration with iTunes... in a related note... has anyone else JailBreak their AppleTV? I'm thinking of doing that tomorrow.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Feedly is proving to be a completely inadequate replacement for Google Reader. It's just incompetent at marking things as read and syncing between browser sessions.

Anyone else using a service they're happy with?

That's sad. I haven't been having any problems, but I'm only using it on the computer.

I'm only using it on the desktop as well, and every time I switch computers or click All to refresh the feed, it skips back to posts 4 days old. Completely infuriating.

Huh. Maybe it's a glitch with "All". I don't use it since I read by folder (mostly to separate feeds with ridiculous numbers of posts like TLo and Eater). But, yeah, that would drive me bonkers.

Hey. New board.

I haven't had that problem, Jessica. Are you using the Chrome add-on? It's working pretty well for me.
