Things that bug the living spit out of me today

1. Parker Posey is currently sporting a mullet.
2. It looks like the first live album we cut in the club after 13 years of being in business will be not J*ff B*ckley, not R*f*s W*inwr*ght, not the Inn*cence Missi*n or anyone of the other brill musicians who've passed through the doors. It'll be J*an fucking Riv*rs!
3. [nerd rant] Why can't I drag a URL from Safari onto the NNW icon in the dock to create a subscription? Will Exposé allow dragging into minimized windows? Window management is a frickin chore. Faxing in OS X sucks, too. And don't get me started on Services; could they be made a little more useless, please? [/nerd rant]

Sorry, this post is a little meaningless. Unlike, you know, all the others.

Exposé won't by its nature—or so it would seem; you would have to grab something, mouse to a corner to push it all aside, then continue holding the object while trying to activate a window. But you activate the entire window, not a field in the window, so I doubt it would work. More info soon. Good question. Nerd.

So, yeah -- kind of.

If you gather a file and want to, say, drop it in another directory that has it's own window--but is buried below ten windows deep, you can clear the windows by mousing to the corner, then by mousing over the window you want, you can bring that window to the fore and drop your file accordingly. I don't know if, say, text drops would work, but it's progress.
