UX comment on this website: I like to click and highlight words as I read. I know I'm not the only one who does this. On this site when I do this, the article keeps drawing focus to the top of the page and its...annoying. Why would someone do this? I've never experienced this issue on any other site before.
Has anyone had an issue on Virtual Box where you're only able to click on certain icons? For example, I can launch the control panel or desktop with a single click but when I try the IE tile it just moves and nothing happens. I can go to the desktop and launch IE without issue. Not sure what to try….

DevOps! That’s a new terms for me and I love it! I'm a Systems Analyst by title but DevOPS better describes what I actually do. Aside from supporting implementation and configuration I'm also Project managing , QA and coding regularly to resolve the short comings of our system. I’ll be using this term more regularly.
Going from Park -> Drive indicates that you are just getting going and possibly not fully prepared for such a surprising situation. If, like today’s Toyota problem, I'm driving and my car starts to speed up I’m likely to be fully engaged in driving and able to correct the situation more naturally.
Last FM (http://www.last.fm/) Has a great search tool where you can enter a band you like and it will suggest other new artists that you may enjoy listening to. Its pretty spot on and I've found a few new groups from the several times i've tried it. Its user driven so its virtual word of mouth.

Seriously, I don't see the issue. Do you have any friends? If you're lacking in the friends department then don't read any further and work on companionship as your number one goal. I find a lot of joy organizing events, outings or exciting weekends for my friends. Make sure the trip has a baseline that everyone can afford and then maybe cover a tab or two while you're out. Ideas don't have to be grandiose they are just excuses to hang out and enjoy life together. I thought of a few things I enjoy and listed them below. Have fun planning these events on your own. Research destinations fully and be prepared to promote your trips so others will join you! Its time consuming (and fun) to figure out the 'best' places to go. Does the outing require that you buy any gear? Research the equipment and then buy it!
Go Camping
Hiking
Deep Sea fishing
Host a wine party / plan a trip to a winery
Trip to another City for the Weekend
Trip to another Country
Get a boat
Attend a music festival (Jazz Fest for example)
Take up a sport like Biking (Road or Mountain)
Hopefully this helps you out somewhat. If you wish to be as happy as me, I'll require $5 to share 'the secret'.
