Firefox 8

I finally switched my shortcuts over from the 3.6 version of Firefox to the 8.0 version. I wish they had kept the status bar. I much prefer the URLs to display unobtrusively on the status bar where I can look at them if I want to, rather than being distracted by a window which pops up and disappears. ... oh yay, this add-on prevents the popups and instead mimics the old functionality by displaying the URLs in the add-on bar.

I also wonder what happened to the little lock icon that you used to get, when you were on a secure/encrypted site... ah, this page explains it.

pockets

So, there I was, exploring what Sears had to offer, and some nicely colored/patterned fleece pajama pants caught my eye. I sauntered over, but was soon disappointed by discovering that they didn't have any pockets. A quick inspection of all the other pajama pants in that section showed that none of them had pockets. Humm, I thought, that sucks... maybe pajama pants aren't ever made with pockets... I guess sleeping people don't usually need to store things on their person... although it sure is handy to have some tissues in one's pocket, for blowing one's nose...

I've been wearing sweatpants as a substitute for so long, that I don't remember whether pajamas normally have pockets or not. One of my sweatpants doesn't have pockets either, which plays into my determination to only consider new pajama pants if they *do* have pockets. On the weekends, I'll often wear my "pajama" sweatpants for a good portion of the morning/day, so it's useful for them to have pockets to put keys and other things in.

Then I walked through the men's section, and saw some more pajama pants, so decided to take a look. Guess what? They all had pockets! Apparently it's only the women's pajama pants that don't have pockets. The men's pajama pants weren't pretty though.
