You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

...and the gift that keeps on giving...hint, hint.

Did you sign up for Seekrit Santa?

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

Sometimes when working in Access or the Visual Studio .Net API, I open up Notepad and use it to store snippets of code, bits of SQL, etc. Is there anyway to get an application like Notepad to always stay on top of other apps? Or some program similar to Notepad that can do this?

(This is for XP.)

Notepad++

The view menu has an option for always on top

It is also an excellent text editor.

Not me. There's this whole plausible deniability thing.

Hey, maybe we can get it under, like, a 501(c) non-profit thing. I mean...we won't profit. Not until I take over the world. And then...who's gonna prosecute me? Myself?

In the meantime, it's a "charity"...as far as you know...

The Escapist: Zero Punctuation is probably about the best video game reviews I've ever heard. I don't give a crap about most of the reviewed games, but that really doesn't matter.
