A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Anyone use the Better Gmail firefox extension? [link]

Is there a performance hit using stuff like this?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have not used it. I don't use all the things in the extension, so I add extensions as I need them. I have a lot of extensions in firefox, and it seems to work okay.

I meant the gmail stuff specifically. I use Firefox extensions all the time.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

hmm. I think gmail's performance is a firefox one. I don't think all the extensions I use in gmail has affected it much.

and I have a whole lot of email in gmail. I think I'm 50% full.

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

iFeast Pet-Feeding & MP3 Docking Station

Finally, A Portable Pet Feeding/Watering System For Your MP3 Player

Let's face it. You and your pet don't share the same "taste" in music. That's why TechnoPetz created iFeast, the portable pet feeding/watering system for your MP3 player. Mealtime will never be the same for your pet with iFeast.

No, the products aren't real. But the empty boxes are. Wrap your otherwise forgettable gift in an Onion gift box, and watch their faces fall when they realize there is no such thing as a pet feeding/docking station for an overly pampered pet—just a crappy bric-a-brac inside you waited until the last moment to buy.

From The Onion Store....

New feature allows one to make a so-called mix book of favorite chapters for girlfriend

Unlike first version, is not just a hollow box with a clear plastic window that you insert books into

Hey. New board.

Okay, I just got the second e-mail from my parents, sent to a very weird contact list, that is clearly pointing me towards some sort of viral thing at depositfiles.com

The thing is, my parents only use Macs, and the address it uses is an older one that is not their default at all anymore. Plus, the link it sends me takes me to "new5.exe" which doesn't sound much like a Mac virus, all things considered.

The address it's using is a Yahoo account, and doesn't appear in their sent messages online. Any idea how this might be happening?
