Lately I've liked

http://www9.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/wildcamafrica/wildcam.html

It's streaming video from a watering hole in Africa. I keep it running all day on my work computer and occasionally look in to see elephants or jackals or zebras drinking. It's especially fun because I keep the sound on, so when people walk in they get very confused when they here elephant sounds coming from nowhere.

And yes, I'm a really big nerd.

Your job will become more and more like Office Space if you don't make a stand now. It seems as if your sister is on the side of The Man.
