As for everyone else, is it possible to default deny all 
access? Seems like when I put Deny Everyone, it denies 
access to even myself.


  That is correct.  Explicit denies trump permits.

  The default permissions explicitly allow "Everyone".
Instead of changing this to "Deny", you just want to
*remove* that permission.
