Glen, we had to use a hammer, chisel and a slab of rock.
Wow, you had a slab of rock!

We had to smash up a mountain to even get to a rock layer that we could chip down to a boulder.

Yeah, I am not as old as you. We had far better tech. Though I hated mixing up mortar to use as white out. Took most of a day to correct a mistake.

Obviously they missed the tits, legs, and ass threads.

Glad you got it unblocked. If not, I was going to suggest a VPN from your work PC to your home PC for access. I have co-workers who do this so they can test sites/services remotely from the office.

I can get Pelican, but I can't see half the posts on the Random Pic thread.

I suspect Widebody links directly to reddit. If people actually uploaded pics we could all see them.

Yup, links to pics results in a lot of blank posts.

Well, now I know what service my IT dept uses. I no longer get "coaching" pages telling me to tread carefully or I might get fired every time I access PPOT from work.

But Bluecoat states that some companies don't update every day. So you may have to wait a while for it to turn on for you.
AAbsolutely, was fixed as soon as you said the categorization changed.

Thanks. I lost access last week as we'll. all other forums were still available, so I thought my company was sending a message that I was spending too much time on PP!

Turns out Pelican has been "bluecoated" again. Just sent a note to the powers that be at sitereview that the "suspicious" tag is unwarranted, so hopefully will be able to browse it from work again soon.

Fixed it again!

Your company may take hours or days to update the filter.
