I put my entire top-of-the-file configuration in a property drawer.  It 
can obviously be expanded on demand, but otherwise is not expanded (ie, 
when I load the file).

My .emacs has this (from Custom):
(custom-set-variables
  '(org-drawers (quote ("PROPERTIES" "SETUP" "LOGBOOK"))))

The my .org file has this at the top (for example):
:SETUP:
#+STARTUP:   hidestars odd lognoteclock-out lognotedone
#+LANGUAGE:  en
#+OPTIONS:   H:4 num:nil toc:nil \n:nil @:t ::t |:t ^:{} *:t TeX:f 
#+CATEGORY:  PROJECTS
#+TYP_TODO:  TODO(t/@) INPROGRESS(i@/@)| CANCELED(C@/@) DONE(D@/@)
#+FILETAGS:  Work
:END:
