That's a function of your operating system, not the board.

Lee, I love the red bag (#3) as well. Aside from the looks, the things that tipped me over to liking it were the detachable shoulder strap and the number/types of pockets inside.

Well darnit, how do I edumacate my operating system? Crummy Mountain Lion, first it makes my mouse scroll upside down, now it's discriminating against proper spelling of theatre.

My problem is that I'm the sort of person who, with a book, or say, the internet, believes she can do anything described therein.

This is so me! The idea that just because I have the info I can do it is my downfall. Also, how I ended up sewing a friend's wedding dress when I was 30.

FTR, I also love bag 3, and feel accomplished that I replaced one of the bolts holding the toilet seat to the toilet. Renters R me.

I have the Readers Digest book and one called Fix It Fast, Fix It Right that's good. If you're doing something complicated, the Time-Life books are good and a lot of libraries have them. The This Old House website is one of the better online resources.

I doubt it's the OS--I'm pretty sure it's your browser. My Opera is set to UK English, and the others are set to US. But it's just like Microsoft Word. If you want it to stop telling you something failed spellcheck, right mouseclick and add it to the dictionary.

I'm trying to work out if the (incompetent) developer really did mean it when she said "I'm taking a day of vacation, and I'm shutting down the proof of concept until I get back, so that schedule you gave me that I got you one day behind on because I don't know when to cut my losses? You're now two days behind, minimum, and the people you have lined up to work this week are going to be delayed."

Like, it's bad form for the developer to take vacation in the middle of a stressful project whose deadlines can't move without clearing it with the rest of the project team (I mean, the schedule does accommodate us both with PTO that we'd planned in advance), but you can't give zero notice (an email on a Sunday does *not* count) and then take the keys with you when you leave.

I've replied to her email and left a voicemail message in the ten minutes I've been awake, but I'm a bit poleaxed at the very idea.

SERIOUSLY.

Who does that?

I texted my manager, who's going to be all "Why are you telling me?"

Because she's your employee, and she's doing random counterproductive shit like this, and I want you to be aware. Really aware.

Wow, that is some kind of bullshit.

OK, I realize I'm probably the only person watching Single Ladies on VH1, but OMGWTFcliffhangers! That show is....objectively really bad (writing, acting), but I just love how the relationships work. No one gets punished for sleeping around (or dating around without sex).
