I just noticed that mine has blocked 2167. That seems like a lot to me.

Let's have a contest. Who's got the most?

This computer only has 203. At home I think it's on several thousand, but I've turned off the count.

That's funny.

Actually, it's mostly from CNN and ESPN. I check both of those several times a day.

I've only got 43. Maybe I should start going to "those" sites.

That happens to me all the time. [Wink]

Actually, you know, today someone was knocking on the door. I wasn't expecting anyone, of course, so I didn't answer it. They knocked again, and again, I ignored it. Then I hear my son say, "Mom, it's the second Wednesday of the month. The door is locked. Let me it." [Embarrassed]

I had forgotten that it was the second Wednesday of the month.

Yeah, here they get out of school an hour and a half early on the second Wednesday of the month so teachers can. . . do whatever it is they do. Apparently, they are supposed to get together and "plan" or other stuff like that. At least they only do it once a month here. Our old school district did it every Wednesday.

I lost count, but when I was using IE it was well over 700.

Then again, I moved to the infamous FireFox and haven't had to deal with that or any other real annoyances (I also block inline ads and have to authorize flash objects).

Kayla: Heh, I see. I was confused because you wrote 'it' instead of 'in' and I read it as "Let me get it" [Dont Know]

I'm weird...
