Interior Department employees aren’t just using their computers to oversee parks and wildlife, an investigation found. They’re spending thousands of hours a week visiting shopping, sex and gambling Web sites.

A report made public Wednesday on an internal investigation examining a week of computer use found more than more than 1 million log entries in which 7,700 employees visited game and auction sites.

More than 4,700 log entries were to sexually explicit and gambling Web sites.

The findings are “egregious” and “alarming,” the department’s inspector general, Earl Devaney, wrote in the report.

“Computer users at the department have continued to access sexually explicit and gambling Web sites due to the lack of consistency in department controls over Internet use,” he wrote.

Guess the ninnies have never heard of filters.

3. Wonder if this might have been released

4. Oi vey...

...to be honest, this is no big deal.

Every company in the world has employees doing the same dang thing.

It's an easy problem to remedy as well. One good sys admin can configure their router and "poof"...no more tittie pics.

5. Something to justify the axing of more funding from the Dept.

of Interior. X a few park rangers. Cut more $$ for park upkeep. Turn more wide open spaces over to the 4-wheelers, hunters, and loggers.
