While everybody's been raving about Google's food recently -- seared scallops, salmon stuffed with crab salad, shrimp tempura and an entire cheese station -- it's sorely disappointing to notice the lack of commentary on Microsoft's fabulous cuisine.

As opposed to mere food, at Microsoft's headquarters, they serve up fresh lines of cocaine, mushroom salad, and "special" brownies, compliments of the house.

Seriously. There's just no other explanation for why Internet Explorer is so bad. I just spent an hour working on a ridiculous iframe hack so that select boxes didn't jump on top of my color chooser (or everything else on the page, for that matter).

I also debugged a choice piece of code that I was able to fix by noting that IE won't set the innerHTML property of tables. Absolutely spectacular.
