Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

The alternative is a long and tricky email discussion wherein I avoid bluntly asking the question "So is this the kind of CPC that actually helps people, or is it the kind that feeds women dangerous medical misinformation so they won't get abortions?"

I think that it is perfectly acceptable to say "I would prefer to give my clothes to someone who will actually use them instead of donating them. Therefore, I will move on to the next mom to be on the list". You could also add "If I wanted the clothes to be donated, I would have done so myself instead of trying to give them away." But, that last bit may be a touch aggressive.

They say two monitors can increase your productivity by 66%.

I suspect two monitors would just increase my goofing off by 66%.

I like where your aggression is heading.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, and I'm pretty sure the amount of time I'm going to spend figuring out if I can effectively use both monitors and how it works best will not be helping my productivity over the next couple of days, anyway.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I have 4 monitors at work but three of them are dedicated (map, phone, dispatch) and everything else happens on the furthest right screen. praise be all the chairs swivel or my neck would be constant agony from all the turning.

BTW, Target is on the list as having their email addresses compromised.

Art Crawl!!!

I have most work stuff - including work email on the left and Chrome with my fun stuff on the right.

I have a laptop and external monitor, but only use the monitor screen, However, I'm on a mac and usually have 9 active spaces. It always starts out email in 1, monitor gui in 2, timewasting browser in 3 or 6, and terminal logins to various servers in the remaining spaces. And then by the end of the week, it is a holy mess and I have multiple things going on everywhere. I usually try to stick to one project per space, but....I'm not good at being sticky.

I discovered today I have a swimsuit tan. However, given that my pool is indoors, for most of the winter I am swimming after dark and the only sunlight when I'm not is a strip maybe 3 yds wide across the pool, I suspect it is more that my suit exfoliated last summer's tan under the straps. Funny!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

E-mail on the right, other stuff on the left. Also, HootSuite and Pandora go on the right.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Chances are decent people need to get off.

Hee. I read this as, "Chances are, decent people need to get off." and I was all, "Well!"

I would like a three monitor setup. Well, a two monitor setup with my laptop screen (which is excellent, btw) in the middle. And ooh! That would mean I could play 1080p stuff from my blu-ray drive, right? That's what I need. More stuff.

Also, speaking of things that are blue, my new laptop may not have bluetooth. WTF? Did I really miss that in my obsessive assessment of all its features? I can't find it, anyway.
