Gotta love technology.
Thing is it's blocked and monitored, we can only access sites that are allowed on the network.



As far as the stones, great job people!

Unless your IT department is really, really talented, you can easily bypass blocking, not that I would recommend it. Tor or a proxy should do it.

Yeah, but naw, I got my phone (iPhone 4). So browsing is really easy. Just that work has been pretty busy, so haven't been able to browse much.

If you can get to my site http://wdhq.net from work then you have access to my proxy too EDIT: All you have to do is register and when you sign in you will see a link for World Domination proxy.

Thanks guys! I don't come into the WCG threads as much.. Not because I don't like coming in here and talking to you guys.. I been doing it lately to keep my mind off other things.. I found out a few weeks ago that my step father has prostate cancer... My best friends wife's mother they found cancer cells in her breast... My brothers wife hasn't been feeling well and found a spot/mass so they are running test to find out what it is... I'm not a praying person.. but I found myself praying a couple of weeks ago..

I got upset the other week, and wondered why I was even crunching, and folding.. is it helping? I even considered shutting down all my rigs.. but this is the only way I know how to fight this monster... So i'll keep fighting... I still have faith that we can beat this!

My sincerest condolences to you and your family . I am a prayerful person so I will also say a prayer in hope of successful remission for all involved.

I'm sorry to hear all of the bad news MW. Maybe this won't make you feel any better, but prostate cancer tends to grow extremely slowly and can be successfully managed the vast majority of the time. This isn't always true, but if I had to pick a type of cancer to get, this would be on my short list. I think there's been a lot of success in treating breast cancer too, but I haven't looked at the stats in a long time. Let us know about the other one once you get some news. I had a spot show up on my last lung x-ray, but it turned out to just be scar tissue from when I used to get bronchitis all of the time. Best of luck to you and yours.
