That is extremely dumb. Two confidentials make a non-confidential? Where it's completely common to stamp every page confidential? WTF?

ETA: like what court/regulator is going to say, "well, this page says it's confidential, but this stamp also indicates it's confidential, so clearly the intention was to disclose this page exclusively."

Is Gmail being wonky for anyone else or am I just in the office corner with crappy wifi?

It's good for me.

Our confidential stuff is marked in the document footer regardless of the text on the page. Not sure how that holds up in court, but that is our standard practice.

I just bought CJ his birthday present and I'm so excited. I prefer to gift "do"s more than "thing"s, though usually it ends up a mix. For Christmas I had gotten him Jeff Dunham tickets and he had a blast. I just got notice that Gabrielle Inglesias (his other FAVORITE comedian) is coming to town in October and the tickets are on presale. Fifth row center, baby!!! I know, delayed gratification between birthday and actual show, but I'll give him something with more immediate joy too.

Sophia, I use a software program with a stamping tool - sorry I wasn't clearer on that.

I work in academics, so to me it is completely possible that your office hadn't figured out how to use a computer that way yet! Also, we actually have a red stamp in my office that says "Confidential", but I never have to use it.

java, my initial reaction was "WTF?" Marking a page "Confidential" multiple times shouldn't make it any more or less confidential. Actually, I'm not aware of any requirement to mark every page of a document "Confidential" even once to obtain treatment as confidential. Although I can see why someone would do it, for abundance of caution purposes.

Gmail is working fine for me. But don't worry about it you're only getting some spam and an e-Statement from your bank. Er... not that I work for the NSA or anything.

I like to think that Obama is checking what Avengers fanfic I read so he can bookmark stuff to read on the weekends.

Ha, I had no idea about the graffiti at Pompeii, but I'm enjoying reading through the list that shrift linked above! Half of it is filthy and half of it is like "Gaius Pumidius Dipilus was here."

This seems totally legit.

I assume he's also making squeaky noises when there are set pics from CA2: The Winter Soldier.
