If your wife is smart, she'll just smile and wait. The time will come when she takes you to a movie, taking away all sharp instruments and rope and make you sit through it. Something like Twilight, only worse.

That's one of the more useful things you learn in the military: The ability to sleep in any place, position or situation. Bonus points for loud snoring.

When I'm tired I can sleep anywhere. Anywhere but bed. 
I have slept in a nightclub - took clients there and they were quite happy with the local seamstresses.
Planes I can be out before the safety announcement.

WIFE: Sure, I'll go.
You will end up paying for this in many ways. 
Don't expect an amorous evening when you get home, or for some time after that.

I won't try to convince your CEO on the basis of an undocumented big prize.

Man up. You're getting paid.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

If you work directly for the CEO then
Its your job to convince him..
else
Get our manager to move it up the chain.
end
Generally if you have to convince the CEO, then you have to do it on term he can appreciate. These normally take the form of
- Risk to the company (Risk mitigation)
- Cost (on going support)
- Benefits.
He will not be concerned about the impact on you... Good Luck

The Big Prize" is that you will be doing the documentation along with all your other work. 
Watch what you ask for, you may get it. 
No good deed goes unpunished.

Write up what should be done about it and what it would cost, and present it to whoever has the CEO's ear.

I've been using the Opera Web Browser now for the past few days and I'm finding it to be very fast and it works quite well.
I can barely tell the difference between it and Chrome (previously used for over a year) and it actually seems a bit faster.
Also, I'm a Google Drive advocate. I own a droid pad and with Google Drive I can get to my documents from anywhere. Very nice.
Anyway, I find that the Google Drive web interface seems to work better in Opera than it even did in Chrome.
I know they're both WebKit, just sayin'.
Anyone else using Opera on desktop? Just curious as not many do, I think.

Used it for a long time at 12, then upgraded when they finally added bookmarks at (21?). Only having 4GB on my machine, and multitasking a lot, I sometimes run up against my memory limitation. Tried the others and always went back to Opera because it is fast and it frustrates me less than the others.
Before, I used FF, and finally got tired of finding out it had somehow sucked down 1.5GB, and was continually rising in the background. They seem to have fixed that, but the last time I tried it (a month or two ago) there was still some issues that turned me back. Then I went to Chrome. It's memory consumption became outrageous. Even after their finagling, which improved it a bit, it still hogs more memory than Opera. Even using same base engine, Opera seems to take less, and releases it better. IE: boots up slower than a dog with one leg on my machine. Something else bothered me about IE, but can't remember what. Could have been slower page loads even after bootup.
Hope Opera brings back some of the stuff from their previous life, especially customizable mouse gestures (although you can add Chrome extensions, but I don't remember them working on Chrome settings pages - and similar info pages - which Opera's did). Stackable tabs were also a killer feature - WAY better implementation than anyone else's. Hopefully some day. But I'm not going to join the bandwagon of the disgusted ones who bash Opera for changing their engine and eliminating features. This think kicks butt and is compatible with pages the old version wasn't!

Good analysis of the issues with browsers. I've wrestled with the same problems. Maybe one of the Big 5 (IE, FF, Safari,Chrome, Opera) should create a "small footprint" version or something.
