macie: The minus sign at the beginning of "-lang:english" would expectedly show all mail NOT in english; just like in regular Google you can put a minus in front of a word or term to exclude it from the results. That's what Gina (and I'd) expects; but it doesn't work that way.

I don't store any critical or personal info on third party sites. No, not even Google. Simple as that. I have plenty of space on my own hard disk, which I have much more reliable control over, for any of that.

The lag time of 5-6 minutes is so stale that each bad edit I've clicked on had already been repaired.

You could do this with Photoshop or Gimp by pasting in the multiple pictures as different layers, and erasing/cutting out from each layer as needed. Wouldn't quite trust an automated tool to do it reliably.

@covert: FWIW Seattle has 3.

Seattleites are still shaking their heads wondering how in the hell Tucson and Pittsburgh got ahead of them. And hitting Portland first really burns.

mailexpire.com is tried and true, and you can disable an address at any time.

tsukata: How did that whole sending work to Japan (and China and Taiwan etc.) work out? By eradicating domestic manufacturing and fomenting a massive trade deficit, that's how. I won't even mention the fallout on career laborers, but perhaps you should read up on Flint or Allentown someday.

Great, let's legitimize offshoring, by showing just how reasonable it is for everyone! Call me bitter, but I don't expect I'll be getting over the notion of screwing one country by taking advantage of the massive quality of life differences of another.

This all assumes that you delight in anything you're expected to do.

@Dr. Jonas Venture, Jr.: Every time I do a little "organize" and "declutter" a bit, I later end up increasingly unable to find what i'm looking for.

I could do away with my desk phone. I never use it.

Eventually I realize, "crap, I'm getting a lot of these that I either ignore or don't need", pick one, click the unsub link, then search for a common keyword in TBird, ctrl-A and delete them all.

You could also get a $2 LED keychain.

Yeah, I always thought the "best" part about MS Project is that no one besides the PM can ever get a usable electronic copy of the gantt chart.

Like I said before, a social networking site doesn't lead to you meeting people... not, at least, people who you would want to meet and would want to meet you.

Since when is StarOffice $70?

ZOMG I want that desktop space. What res is that? :)
