How do you folks feel about having a seasonal thread instead of renewing it monthly? We don't have a ton of posts in here so there's really no need to start fresh every month, but I'll leave it up to you. I can change the title easily enough if you'd prefer.

BTW, the Doyers are undefeated

BTW #2: Happy birthday Will

 

Good morning SoCal, happy April Fool's day! Steve, that's how Roger in Iowa does it, by the season.

 

Though this thread is usually considered by me as a throw-away one, sometimes I need to search it for something (significant?).

I'd rather wade through 400-or-so posts than 1200.

I don't know if it makes a difference to IB, but I remember Kenny saying a long time ago that long threads caused the database to slow down. Of course, that was likely running under different software and hardware, so I haven't a clue if that is still a factor.

I don't have a preference. The posts are all dated anyway if I need to search for something. Believe it or not, there are some tidbits in here, once in a while, that I need to search for. But I think I would find them either way.

 

Need some ideas. It is April 1st, and as it happens I am in the office alone today. I have access to everyones PC.

 

Morning Pop, Bill. Oh, what I could do with that Bill! First thing, I'd be signing up several coworkers to recieive a lot of unwanted spam emails and info from sites that they normally wouldn't visit!!

 

The piece of tape over the mouse's optical pickup trick is a good one

 

Take a screen shot of some significant application running, and change their wallpaper to that.

If they are the hunt-and-peck typer, change around the letters on their keyboards. I've done that once to someone already this morning.

 

Thanks Steve.

We're gonna go watch UNLV softball tonight.

 

Happy Bday, Will. I hope you are taking the day off of work.

I was thinking of redirecting all of user A's email to user B, user B's email to user C, etc.

 

Just don't loop it around to the beginning at the end!

Happy Birthday Will! Bill , keep us updated on what you decide to do.

 

I have taken sticky notes (just the sticky strip part) written APRIL FOOLS on them, and stuck them on the bottom of all the mice. I figured I had to write on them since the deed will not be discovered until Monday.

 

Another good one to do: Place a small peice of scotch tape over the ear or mouth hole on their phone, only covering part of it. Then, every day after, put a bigger piece on, then switch (to the ear or mouthpiece) and repeat.
