The entire site seems to load faster, too. Nice!

@MameDennis: Good call, and my mistake. It was corn syrup, not HFCS. Still caused the same result, though.

@shadhimself: I don't drink a lot of soda or sweetened drinks, so breaking out every time I had one made figuring it out pretty easy. A lot of drinks have the same ingredients, but I'm fairly certain it was the HFCS based on my other test.

I've been avoiding HFCS since I realized every time I drank something that contains it, like soda or Gatorade, I broke out with one or two very painful cyst-like things on my face that took a month or more to go away.

@ptrader: No, we're talking about different things. You can see a screencap at the link I posted above.

@ptrader: Weird. Are we talking about the same thing—the folder icon next to the address bar that gives you a drop-down menu? Lifehacker profiled the command-line switch at [lifehacker.com]

Great news. Any word on if they're going to add the bookmark menu button to the browser options instead of making everyone add it through a command line switch?

@FoxCMK: Do you know how to put the logo on the left and multiple lines of text on the right? I'm using Outlook and haven't been able to get that to work.

@TheFu: I'd love to go plain text, but we're dealing with management here. At the very least, a logo will have to be included. And probably some shooting rainbows.

My boss wants me to design a new email signature for all of our employees, but I'm having a hard time finding simple yet professional examples to base ours on. Does anyone have any good designs they could share?

I just found out yesterday Guinness only has 125 calories. Makes me feel a bit better about having 5 of them (and a probably-1,500-calorie corned beef sandwich) this past weekend.

They should release deleted accounts after a while so people like me can get the address they want. Just this weekend, I sent emails to FirstNameLastName@gmail.com and LastNameFirstInitial@gmail.com and both bounced back as undeliverable, yet I can't create an address with those aliases because they're "unavailable."

@kernel panic: I actually take home more per paycheck (and didn't owe anything) thanks to all this "change." I guess YMMV.

@TehBeardMan: I'm thinking Manhattans, but not in martini glasses. Over ice. Is that sacrilege?

@Phoshi: I let it run for a few minutes. That seemed to take care of the smell, but then it came back the next time I put it on. Permastink!

Is the HTC Hero any good? I saw Sprint's "Any Mobile Anytime" ad and was thinking it might be a good time to take the smartphone plunge. And the Hero looks good because of the MicroSD slot—I could carry most of my music with me.

My landlord had someone working on the water pipes in my place yesterday, and now my hot water smells like motor oil. My landlord said the plumber only had to replace one section of pipe, so he's not sure what would be causing the smell.

I laugh every time I hear my mom or dad say, "let's hook up later." It doesn't make them sound old—just creepy.

@myrkron: Agreed. I especially like the idea of using peanuts to secure screws in large holes.

I don't really mind an excerpts feed for this site because I tend to visit the site anyway to read the comments. With that said...
