My posting frequency is going to drop somewhat in the days ahead.... it seems the web filter my company uses learned about FTR and decided it is a gambling site, which means I can no longer read from work. Oh, the horror!

WSOP was a blast. I only got a small taste this time, but I'm hungrier for more next year!

Yeah, my company has WebSense, which blocks FTR, so I have to use "creative measures" to get on during work.
TylerK: its just gambling if i want to worry about money i'll go to work lol

Hey Tyler, what...er.... "creative measures" do you use? Is one of those an SSH tunnel? That's somewhat frowned upon at my work.

I'll get back to you Xianti, thanks.

Wow, turns out work is really boring....

I believe a http proxy would be of interest. If you guys didn't pound it for no reason I would maybe set one up.

Websense is able to filter most requests that go through a proxy. I spend a lot of time VNC-ed into my home PC.
