Not my thing, but I can appreciate having a workspace that is all YOU. Go Kelley!

@john144001: I frowned when I read that she painted over it. I'd rather just stain it.

@jeffk: I'd definitely want my feet under it, but now I know what will work in a pinch. I've been wanting a second, stand-up desk for a while, since sitting for more than a couple of hours kills my back.

I thought this article was gonna say something like, "If you catch someone going through your stuff, shoot 'em!"

@penguiniator: Dammit, I was gonna say, "What's next, real coffee?" Haha.

Is that the same cat as the one in the picture of the cat sitting on a laundry bag for Remains of the Day?

Cool on him!

@Thomas Wrobel: The problem is getting everyone to do it, though. If not enough papers are doing it, then it won't work and people are just going to read articles where they don't get charged.

@Whitson Gordon: I do agree that everything shouldn't be free - to a certain extent. But if News Site A charges and News Site B doesn't, where do you think I'm going to read that article about Whatever Is Currently Going On? I don't think that online papers should go to a subscribers-only model. But honestly, I really…

@OCEntertainment: I'm okay with a few free articles, too. I don't read the NYT anyway, so it wouldn't kill me. I think the stingy-man route is an instant death sentence and I hope that no one trying to follow NYT will take that route.

@Sabbatai: I know, right? I don't have the heart to kill a mouse. I try to blatantly ignore that there may be mice in my house and my cat may or may not eat them.

What if you've got ROUS? You're gonna need a bigger tunnel...

OR you could embrace the Twitter linkage and make sure you're tweeting useful things that will lead people to your blog(s) and other site(s) - kill several birds with one stone! (;

@gerrrg: Forget that article. I'm doing what you say. (:

@TheFu: Work *should* be fun. I mean, of course there are going to be times when you're not having fun, but it should be enjoyable. Everyone should do what they love.

@sti25impreza: I wouldn't use MS Security anything. I've been using PC Tools and love it.

@nicepants: Oh, boy. I'm not even going to get into that argument.

Who cares? As long as the resume is good, who cares? I can't believe we're even having this discussion.

@sti25impreza: Unless you go to buy a laptop and the only OS available is Vista. Sigh.

Of course it's selling fast; people who got screwed on Vista want to get out of that hellhole!
