The I.T. guy has developed a God complex

breepeace @breepeace (3014) • Canada 8 May 07

I posted yesterday about how my company’s IT guy blocked a bunch of personal internet sites on Friday afternoon, but today I discovered they’ve taken it to a really strict level! I can’t even get on Yahoo now! In fact, I just...

ci_svufan223 Nope. Not at all. In fact, my sister got fired because she was cruising Mypace rather than working. Unsecured web sites are terrible places to pick up spyware that can be used against the companies out there. Better to be safe than sorry. Now I do have a...

Khanana @Khanana (78) 10 Jul 08

When i try to make like most people, enough water until dry... it is always so bad! And i always tend to think the water dry and the rice will burn... I really dont understand how to do it! So i do it with lots of water and when i...

ci_svufan223 You proably have the heat too high as well. It only needs to be high until it starts to boil, than you turn it down to a VERY low simmer and cover the pan. Like the other person said, 1 cup of rice, 2 cups of water. The rice MUST be level in the cup too....

For Those That Romanticize The Great Depression, Did You Know?

Angelwhispers @Angelwhispers (8978) • United States 11 Jul 08

The last couple of days I have been reading discussions that actually romanticize, one of the worst periods of our American history. We glorify grand parents who survived this time period and knew how to weather the storm. I have...

ci_svufan223 Why wouldn't we glorify our grandparents for surving this dark time? There is nothing romantic about the Great Depression, I agree. Tt was so easy to die of starvation, or sickness. Barely making enough to make ends meet. Its certainly not a time you would...

ci_svufan223 ok, lol. I CAN'T stand it when someone is walking behind me! I get freaked out and step off to the side to let them pass me. Also HATE going up a stairwell and someone coming up behind me. I freak out again and race up to the top and hide somewhere. Its...

The unanswered cell phone call....

cream97 @cream97 (29086) • United States 11 Jul 08

My husband tends to have his cell phone on it around most of the times. But lately, when I am around him, and if his cell phone rings he will look at the caller-Id. And he will close his phone back up. This usually happens when I...

ci_svufan223 He may not answer the phone when he's alone too. See here is the deal. A lot of numbers are recycled, and there are a lot of misdialed numbers happening. That adds up to a lot of wasted minutes. My husband and I do the same thing. If it rings, we look at...

ci_svufan223 They are both at fault. I don't think he could be trusted, but if you can't imagine your life without him in it, than do what you gotta do. Funny thing is, if he wanted your friendship, why did he wait till she left him?

ci_svufan223 Rice queen here! lol First of all, there are lots of great rices out there, and my two favorites are sushi rice, and Jasmine rice. Brown rice is better for you and has a nutty crunchy texture. Jasmine is my favorite. It smells wonderful and cooks better...

Should I tell my mother in law or not?

travibabiesgirl @travibabiesgirl (1690) • United States 8 Jul 08

My mother in law just gave my daughter and I a hair cut. She is a licensed stylist and has her own shop. She cut my daughters shorter than she wanted and it was not even close to the style she asked for. Now My daughter has...

ci_svufan223 Maybe you should ask her why she cut the hair the way she did. Sometimes, (and I hate this) stylists think they know better than the customer, and cut it the way they want to, and not the way the customer wants. When that happens, I stop going to that...

Wires or wireless?

askin123 @askin123 (206) 8 Jul 08

I myself can't stand wireless. I had it for a few months and it lags like hell so I got rid. I prefure wires because then there's nothing to stop the signal. Which do you have?

ci_svufan223 I like Wireless. It does lag, even with cable, but I like the freedom to move around too much to change to anything else. My husband has a regular desktop though, so if I need something to move fast (why though? Whats the rush? lol), I can just use his...

How long do you keep Text Messages in your Mobile Phone?

poohgal @poohgal (6845) • Singapore 23 Dec 07

Mobile phones used to be able to keep only up to 10 Text Messages. With the increase in memory space, we can keep almost unlimited messages on our mobile phones. If someone very special to me sends me a special Text Message on...

ci_svufan223 My phone is weird. The recieved message box seems to hold about 50 before it tells you to delete something. The sent messages only go up to 30. The thing I do like is the lock feature. You can sometimes lock a special message, so when you do a mass delete, it...
