::Writer's Blockade

It's funny. i've been kinda struggling to come up with things to post about.

Not that i don't have ideas. i've got plenty of those. Ideas about captains, cruise ships and reefs that folks would probably misconstrue. Great heaping hordes of them that would probably get me fired or at least marched into some office somewhere, so those are out.

i could go on about various technical things, that only twelve or so people on the earth would actually care about (stuff like how Safari for Windows is fast, handily beating out Opera9, IE7 and FF2 in doing heavy load things like the new Y!Mail in around 3 seconds off of a 802.11g link) which sounds great until you realize that it does everything it can to be a mac-app so none of the normal windows behaviors actually work. (Seriously, mac people? What's with the "You can only resize a window from the bottom right corner!" thing?)

hours.pngi could talk about how someone at work recently mentioned how they're trying to find more balance with their work/personal life and how i giggled when i heard them talk about hitting the upper limits for accrued vacation. Dude, that's where i live. (That snapshot is accurate as of 5PM today.) But that just enforces what a sad, life people think i lead. (Honest, it's not. Work == play for me.)

i could go on and on about all kinds of stuff that frankly i shouldn't.

i've.. i've said too much already.

Haven't i?

Y!Mail works in Safari 3 at all? It just says "blurgh! BLOCKED". Possibly phrased slightly differently.

Well, it does for Safari for Windows. You just click on the "Yeah, I know it's not officially supported, but I'm into that sort of abuse, so let me try it anyway" link and you get through. It works pretty well, then.

I can't, despite looking, find the "I'm a masochist" link. Oh well. I don't use yahoo! mail anyway, so I suppose I don't care that much.
