I gave in and downloaded Google Chrome. I'm not pleased with it, but some supernatural forces must have been at work here. My Explorer has been going a little screwy, and I get these little error messages telling me that my browser had stopped working. This was happening several times a day. I haven't had it happen since I began using Chrome. But, as I said before, I'm not crazy about it.
Anyway, this morning I clicked on "Tools" to get to my bookmarks and noticed something I had paid not attention to before. Listed on the menu was "New Incognito Window." I thought maybe it would allow me to disguise myself with Groucho glasses complete with mustache. It seems that it actually allows you to "hide" any site you may visit on the internet. It must be
a godsend to very handy if you are a cheating spouse who has signed up for a dating service or if you spend time with Debbie of Dallas fame. You could also use it for a lot of serious creepiness that you wouldn't want your family to see. No more "Oops!" Wifey found your favorite porn site or little Johnny received his first sex education class in living color.
I can't for the life of me think of one legitimate reason for offering this service. I may be naive, but this takes creepy to a whole new level.

I don't like Chrome, either, but, sometimes it's any old port in a storm.
I'm trying to figure out how to hide some of the posts I get on my Facebook page, without my "friends" knowing it. Some of them are so prolific, they fill up my page. Most of what they post is pretty boring, I must say, but I don't want to hurt their feelings. Know what I mean???
