The only way around this ban? Reboot your computer. Not the toughest by-pass, but enough of a pain that it should limit your online wandering.</div><div><br /></div><div>Check it out <a href="http://macfreedom.com/">here.</a><br /><div><br /></div></div>theunemployedworkaholichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09369696834508667773noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3414314013238170427.post-69063964730137371882009-04-23T11:11:00.000-07:002009-04-23T11:16:42.896-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8ZwXSdGRIjlvqiSrO7lvlyqoF8FR2EzZxddJXOHzhlmcXs6WfOnP1Cmog5uNiqNiIfcrPCDq0FOXsC3uPavdMz2epNDLSajzwSjEzYcrA290wSHmuo4DgnV1bS3zYz4oOxQvTzI1CQO8/s1600-h/email_Sample_42209_580x2802.gif"><a href="http://www.jetblue.com/deals/samplesale/?source=EM042009_main&sp_mid=1561935" target="_blank"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 193px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8ZwXSdGRIjlvqiSrO7lvlyqoF8FR2EzZxddJXOHzhlmcXs6WfOnP1Cmog5uNiqNiIfcrPCDq0FOXsC3uPavdMz2epNDLSajzwSjEzYcrA290wSHmuo4DgnV1bS3zYz4oOxQvTzI1CQO8/s400/email_Sample_42209_580x2802.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327951182776170194" /></a></a>Another sample sale today at <a href="http://www.jetblue.com/deals/samplesale/?source=EM042009_main&sp_mid=1561935" target="_blank">JET BLUE!</a> Get it while it lasts (today only).theunemployedworkaholichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09369696834508667773noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3414314013238170427.post-92086303728039201722009-04-22T11:52:00.000-07:002009-04-22T12:06:14.742-07:00Now You're Cooking<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzU87G2xB4VA05At3wBm5mW12kz0dBKNTTdBlG3mOUGI6uD2EstlP_lnewsN1rO25kfo112tscELJzEeOJ_74aFfjk4PPhXIjC-ujfOJfZLw1lp3Yen30WZ39_J6kJttGyPOae2puE3H4/s1600-h/logo.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 280px; height: 23px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzU87G2xB4VA05At3wBm5mW12kz0dBKNTTdBlG3mOUGI6uD2EstlP_lnewsN1rO25kfo112tscELJzEeOJ_74aFfjk4PPhXIjC-ujfOJfZLw1lp3Yen30WZ39_J6kJttGyPOae2puE3H4/s320/logo.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327594077275922578" /></a><br />Did you know your local <a href="http://www.williams-sonoma.com/cust/storeevents/index.cfm?cm_type=lnav" target="_blank">Williams-Sonoma</a> offers free in-store Cooking Technique classes?
