Or upvert to Gmail.

What version of IE do you have? I think Yahoo! isn't able to
correctly detect IE9 in some cases.

And of course, apt-get is better for that.

As it so happens, I'll be taking my 27speed to the bike festival
tomorrow to see whether I can pick up a unicycle[1].

(If I find a mountain bike instead, I won't be able to fit it in my
panniers)

[1] Because I'm not clumsy enough already on 2 wheels.

I just wish the chrome version of adblock actually blocked ads instead
of loading and then hiding them. I use an adblocker pretty much
primarily as a security measure and chromes implementation defeats that.

Seriously, every week they come out with a new version of Firefox, which
has a noticeably worse UI experience and breaks all my extensions.

I think some people have become monomaniacs about bringing the version
number to parity with IE.

ISTR reports a few years ago of "anal leakage" following
overconsumption of indigestible (no calories!) fats & oils. It
should've occurred to someone that edible mineral oil had been used
for over a century as a "stool lubricant".
