A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Just got a Google verification code I didn't ask for - two-factor authentication FTW!

And question: this is a LastPass generated password (very long, very random) that's not used on any other site. Worth changing anyway just to be safe?

If you're using LastPass, any reason not to? I figure you might not want to change it if you were trying to remember it in your head, but if you use LastPass anyway...

Actually I figured out it was just Waze trying to reauthorize itself. Which is weird because Waze is owned by Google and should already have my password!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

What does this mean when I am trying to get to a website:

Http/1.1 Service Unavailable

I have been sent links to many wigs I need to buy at www.thewigcompany.com, and I cannot get there!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

It's an error on their website. Check back later and see if it's back up.

Thanks! I thought so, but I was also panicking since I really have to order these!

I'm trying to install adblocker software on my home computer running Win 7 with IE 11. I've tried Ad-Aware and a couple of others, and they're not showing up in IE. Is there a better adblocker plug-in I can try?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Honestly, I'd move to another browser and then install an adblocker. IE is notorious for not playing well with that kind of stuff.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

An interesting note. Not sure if it's a fluke, accident, or what. But it seems when listening to Pandora on my FireTV, there are no commercials. I've been listening all day, and not a one. If I stream from the website on a computer, or from the iPad app, a fair amount of commercials. But none from the FireTV. Anyone else notice this? Not complaining. Just thought I'd share.
