I was literally proselytized to about Firefox back in 2004, and made that change a few years later, so far so good.

I used to use firefox until I started experiencing more slowdown. Now I use Chrome.

Firefox plays murder on some online application software, though;  any job I look at whose website is powered by Taleo, I have to use IE.

Awesome thing about Chrome is that my favorites are always the same between my main PC at home, work, laptop, phone, etc.
:hmm: That's not always a good thing. :unsure:

Not sure what you're getting at.

Oh, yes.  I've heard of that.  Why would I keep that bookmarked?

That was the entire context of my joke.  It was about all the Hitler stuff we hear about, anecdotally, coming from places like Pakistan and Mongolia.

It had long sense ran its course by the time Tim ran in to point out the Japanese are not anti-semites :P

Mexico passes US in the obesity rankings.

Must be all the Mexicans coming to the US, adopting US eating styles, packing on the pounds before they head home to Mexico.   ;)

My android phone tells me that, but the second webpage I ever tried with chrome came up all screwy. No thank you.

Languish always looks that way

It was languish. LOL

We're going to need a mobile update pretty soon WAP2 isn't cutting it anymore.

It's soda (pop); they guzzle it even more than us Murricans and don't go for diet.

Company spent a crapload of money and man-hours training me and sending me to expensive classes on commercial software since I started this new IT auditing position two months ago. No contract/obligation required.

In return, I called them today and demanded a big pay raise. They had to accept. :lmfao:

Sadly?

Meri just likes ragging on her neighbors, who are not the highly evolved ball of light that she is :P

She's being silly.  When someone refers to someone, ethnically speaking, as "European," they don't usually mean a Maltese, or Sami, let alone a Turk that lives in Thrace.

Indians are white people.  Maybe Meri's trying to keep the bloodline pure. :ph34r:
