I always hover over the period when someone does that, in case it really is a link to something like a symphony of world's tiniest violins...

That's a great idea. But my stick is so old. I paid about $50 for 128 MB. Time to buy a new one. I can put games on it too!

I used to have it, my IT guy gave it to me. Then they started some new software crap that audits the machines and now no one has admin rights but the IT people.

It is. It leads to the world's tiniest website, so small that it fits inside a single TCP/IP packet.

Not just that, but it really speeds up page loads. I did that awhile ago just because pages would constantly get hung up loading because they were waiting for one of the "dynamic" servers.

I hate that, being forced to sit and wait for my page to load while the ad server is contacted. That's why my HOSTS file is ~634K.

Yay for mod perks!

I still have ads. Maybe if I have some more beer they'll go away.
