Why are training courses always boring?

Man, I haven't posted from the browser for so long, I don't even know anymore where things are. I always use Semagic. And I know that you shouldn't post from some computer-lab but I'm sooo bored. And I've got a terrible headache. And I think I know why. I never believed that you could really get addicted to caffeine but, yeah, you actually can. Because I get a headache every time I don't walk to the local McDonalds (the tiniest McDonalds I've ever seen *lol*) before the lessons and get a damn coffee :( And today I didn't have time because the freakin' train was late. AGAIN.

At least I learnt something new, for example that if you have the German MS Word, if you write =rand(199,9) in the upper left corner, you get 199 paragraphs a 9 words each (in my case 26 pages). I've been working with Word for almost 15 years but I didn't know about this! Neither, that you can highlight stuff in the middle of the text with alt+left click, pulling down (or up). Fascinating.

Also, I have a new layout! Unfortunately it sucks in Opera (and presumably IE but I couldn't test this yet) and for some reason only at home I get the correct font (I'm on Firefox here and it doesn't work either). It should be Tahoma but everywhere else it appears as Times New Roman :( Last night I tried for half an hour to remedy that but it didn't work. Maybe I was too tired and simply overlooked something? Well, I'll keep trying to tweak it some more. Maybe now while the people around me here learn about how to bold and underline words... :/

Edit: Still no idea how to get rid of the glitches in the f-page but at least I managed to set it all to Tahoma and a font-size that makes the comment-field readable. Also - yay, it doesn't suck anymore! In Opera, that is. In IE it looks truly ugly (as I managed to test it today). Well... sorry?

stuff no one cares about, rl, layout, graphics
