  • Palin will have been Governor for 32 months when she resigns. By 2012, will a 32 month stint 3 years ago be relevant? I don’t think so. #
  • Palin threatens to sue blogger who discussed rumors of scandal. http://is.gd/1oOvH Sarah meet something I like to call the 1st amendment. #
  • Sent a notice that we need to “protect our intellectual property” by buying some Chinese domain names. Yeah, right. #
  • Hilarious video skewering Homeopathy http://is.gd/1oU2w Thanks to @BadAstronomer for the link. I’ll buy him a homeopathic lager. 😉 #
  • I can’t take this anymore. Every single afternoon, my computer slows down to a crawl. Seriously impacting my productivity. #
  • Interesting story from 2004 about Palin quitting as chairperson due to “frustration” http://is.gd/1pURK When going gets tough, Palin quits? #
  • Why does Seesmic Desktop insist on using 133MB+? I like it but may have to switch to a less resource intensive Twitter app. Any suggestions? #
  • Looking up new Twitter apps. Found one that lets you reboot your PC via Twitter. Does anyone really think this is a good idea?!! #
  • Cafeteria has free lunch for employees today. And they have (among other things) veggie burgers. Yay! #
  • Free cafeteria lunch: Veggie burger, corn on cob, pasta salad, ice cream, watermelon & cookies. Bringing cookies home for the boys & B. #
  • Cafeteria lunch had lots of other options that I passed up on because they contained meat. #
  • Oh, and I also entered to win a mountain bike. Would love to go out on bike rides with NHL. #
  • Trying out Twitbabble right now. Not as many features as Seesmic Desktop, but lower memory footprint so far. #
  • Missing the option to search right from within the app & save searches. Also, hate that “tweet” sound when I get a new tweet. #
  • Can’t turn it off or resize this window. Not liking Tweetbabble at all. Back to Seesmic Desktop for now. #
  • Laughing at the HB commenter on @BadAstronomer’s blog. He doesn’t believe in 9-11, the Holocaust, the moon landing, or even the ISS! #
  • Randomly working now. Can’t decide what to work on next, so I’m letting Random.org decide for me. Makes me surprisingly productive! #
  • RT @Shortpacked Oh, Fox news. You shouldn’t be THAT obviously racist. http://bit.ly/Pcve9 <= Wow. He thinks diff ethnicities = diff species? #
  • Firefox just crashed on me in the middle of a post. Start it back up & not only were my tabs saved, but the entire post was also! FF WIN! #
  • Can seitan be made without soy? Looked up a recipe but it included soy sauce. #
  • ASCAP claims that embedding a YouTube video on your website counts as a public performance & you need to pay them. http://is.gd/1twjW #
  • I wonder if they think that simply linking to a video is a public performance. http://is.gd/1twwI Oops. Did I just “perform” that? #
  • This is too funny! http://bit.ly/Bewti
    If only more people followed this advice. #
  • PC freezing up again. *checks watch* It’s a bit early today. #
  • Energy levels plummeting this afternoon. Really feeling lack of sleep thanks to little guy’s late night wake up/toss/turn sessions. #
  • 100 essential skills for Geeks. http://om.ly/?peL I count only 27 for me. Guess I’m just a low-level geek. #
  • Well done airplane safety video. Will really make you pay attention! (yes, SFW) http://is.gd/1tTQN Thanks to @BadAstronomer #
  • Up way too late working on stuff. Thunder & lightning outside now though so think I’ll power down and get some rest. #
