Please edit your post to include two smiley faces at the end, it's weird to stray from your norm with a lone smiley.

Done. I was talking to my lady on Yahoo and missed it. I usually preview my post before submitting it. Didn't do that so this will teach me to do that in the future.

The "Big Ballmer" link, if you clicked it, would render this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Brother_(1984)

I'm sure you all know what this is.

This is probably a function of my age and experiences, but I don't call 2 weeks "long". I don't particularly trust anyone with my own safety or security as a baseline, and once something or someone falls beneath that baseline I find it best to just look past said person or thing on such matters.

Meh, I always check what the link directs to if I don't trust it before I click it.

Slightly unrelated-but-still-sort-of-related: I've pretty much stopped using WP for anything other than technical (computer/Linux-related) info anyway...anything else is shaky ground for me emotionally. But that's just a personal thing; YMMV.

.
There are viruses spreading in windows land from hovering over links to see where they go. While I see the difference, it's still close enough to be wary, especially when you see someone purposefully posting malicious code.

But I thought that LQ doesn't let you put javascript in your posts.
