  • @brentirwin is it a recap tonight? #
  • I"m not sure what to do tonight… #
  • doing my taxes #
  • taxes are done. I’m getting a refund. If I can get it soon enough my gf will have a really nice b-day/ anniversary gift. I mean REALLY good! #
  • Discus from channelflip is to F*king funny #
  • @alisonL it’s snowing here, so yeah, it’ll snow there… should be by now. I would’ve seen it earlier, had twitter NOT BEEN DOWN AGAIN! :X #
  • @beiting yeah I saw that news. I’m not sure how I feel about it. But if Audible gets the Amazon Recommendation algorithm it might be good. #
  • @warmaiden is goodreads available via RSS, and what about libraryThing? If so, try yahoo pipes #
  • I’ll be interested to listen to the new Security Now 129: ‘steady state’… working in a Windows IT World, wonder how much they got wrong. #
  • @film_girl Re: Frys sounds like a bad situation. And that’s why I don’t drink much. so I don’t have to worry about it. #
  • @xstarfly82 I’m with you on the Dr. Drew thing. He’s one smart dude. I feel bad that he has to deal with the celebrities though…. #
  • …don’t know how much he could do with Britney Spears though… I mean he’s only SO good, but maybe not that good at fixing her issues. #
  • @film_girl as long as you’re not STILL seeing him, I won’t argue… if you are, we need to talk. #
  • @joelhousman I think we might have to give @film_girl advice, but I won’t give it unless she wants me to. #
  • @mysterymika101 yeah I know how that goes. I myself don’t know how to jump a car, but I could figure it out #
  • @marksheppard I"m thinking that they’ll want podcasts to advertise the kindle and it’s ability to play audiobooks #

  • @maccore thanks for the update, who wants to bet the Apple TV update will be out tomorrow? If it’s not tomorrow, then saturday? #
  • @jjprojects is tomorrow (being wednesday) looking any better than today (tuesday)? I sure as hell hope so, today’s been a hardcore nutjob. #
  • 59th and Kedzie… that’s all I have to say to anybody on the train from the 23rd of December coming back from Chi-town and they’ll bust out #
  • a little bit ago, a guy was yelling "can I check this out here or do I have to go upstairs" because his music was too loud. see next tweet! #
  • … I was 15 feet away and I could STILL hear his music. They wonder why our society is going deaf. We had to ask him to turn it down. :( #
  • I want to go home now… it’s 20 to 9:00pm CT and I’m beyond ready to go home. Not looking forward to the drive home though. #
  • Snow + wind + Idiot Drivers = NASTY as all get out. :( #
  • it only took me an hour to get home, that includes getting gas, so overall that’s not too bad. However, the weather is another story. #
  • just bought John Grisham’s new book for $9.95 from Audible! #
  • @ejacqui I know 9 different girls named one various or another of ‘Jennifer’. so take it as a sign that you’re supposed to find a guy… #
  • @ejacqui … named ‘mark’ #
  • time for bed twitterati. night all. #
  • Morning all… I got up a few minutes late today. My alarm wasn’t loud enough. #
  • and I’m at work, not wanting to really work on anything, but I don’t really have a choice now do I? #
  • it was cold this morning. There was an accident on a major throughfare. I don’t know if it was blood I saw in the snow or just washer fluid #
  • @beiting how about ‘the genies’ for a show name? #
  • been in a meeting for the last 2 hours. Not fun. Necessary. But not fun #
  • Apple you better ship that Apple TV 2 update soon… this better be wrong: http://tinyurl.com/2gj6jd #
  • @xstarfly82 what do you mean ‘killing’ you? ulcer? #
  • if anybody says differently tell them that they’re wrong. MacBreak Weekly this week is hilarious. #
  • transferring files from XP to vista needs to be a hell of a lot easier. It’s too damn complicated for ‘regular’ users. #
  • I’m craving some spanish rice.. maybe I’ll stop at the store and pick some up. #
  • @ijustine rueben? #
  • about to leave work, have to go and fix somebody’s xp to vista issues (transferring files, see ealrier tweet). don’t know about dinner yet. #

  • sigh, growl isn’t working with adium #
  • night twitterati… time for bed for me. #
  • @JasonCalicanis I think you may have a new site idea for the ’60 second video’ #
  • @maccore my guess is that’ll it’ll come later today #
  • attempting to read all of my RSS Feeds before I have to leave for work. only 143 left aotm #
  • damn you engadget for getting my hopes up for the update being out already. #
  • @phillymac here’s the link to the cha-ching article I did http://tinyurl.com/yqo33z #
  • @warmaiden I do the same thing, I like getting a bunch of money at once to spend #
  • @scobleizer can you give them away as prizes? #
  • well off to work I go, I probably won’t have a chance to check twitter & rss feeds until after 2:30 CT. Have to do an interview today. fun. #
  • that’s sad, Margaret Truman died, only reason I even knew about her was because she was a writer. Hazards of working in a Library. #
  • @joelhousman RE:Google Bomb. Sorry to burst your bubble, that’s no bomb, it happens to be the truth. :) #
  • after doing some ‘research’ over my lunch break, I have now fully determined what I’m getting my gf for her b-day / anniversary in march. #
  • any update to the AppleTV yet? anybody? #

Blue Stop Sign

29 Jan 2008



Blue Stop Sign

Originally uploaded by l0ckergn0me

Could this be so that people can differentiate between lava and the stop sign? I guess it just seems odd considering all we ever see here in the ‘mainland’ is an octagonal Red stop sign. I wonder if their streets lights are Blue Yellow and Green instead of Red. hmm… ponderable….

  • well I’m off to bed now, I have to work tomorrow morning, night twitterati #
  • I hate this whole ‘getting up before the sun it out’ just to go to work deal, it’s not what I had in mind. I prefer later than this. sigh. #
  • time for me to head to work. sigh. later all #
  • somebody shoot me now, I work with idiots #
  • @ejacqui you have to click on the latest tweet and it’ll bounce back to that that tweet, it’s odd and strange, but it works. #
  • working on editing some webpages/CSS For our interlibrary loan server #
  • @film_girl you have WAY too many DVDs #
  • remind me that if I ever create an online store to not have ‘popups’ that lead to more ‘popups’ e.g. Canon’s Store #
  • @bud_caddell sounds a bit fishy to me… #
  • after reading this http://tinyurl.com/326u9y I wonder if Gerstmann left b/c he wasn’t going to get the EIC job? just my conspiracy theory :) #
  • looking into why this DVD+/-RW DL consistently opens, I think it’s due to the tension clips failing, not sure yet though. #
  • almost time to go home, I’ll check my tweets when I get home. adios for now #
  • I love it when I finish an audible book just as I’m parking my car #

  • if you ever find yourself in need of explaining to a non-techie what a text message is, just say it’s an instant email to your phone. #
  • @phillygirl I don’t have a price, I can’t be bought, end of story. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. #
  • @finkisadink I’m pretty sure there is, my grandmother probably doesn’t know what a text message is at all #
  • @finkisadink it’s popular amongst certain segments on the US population. (under 25, maybe under 30). kids don’t call, they text. … #
  • …my gf and I don’t call each other, we text. therefore we can text all day and not worry about being interrupted. it’s just easier for us #
  • I saw The bucket list… it was definitely a good movie, cried at the end, so did my gf (yes I cry, not often but still).. #
  • @mickipedia why not just start brining it with you, that’d make it more interesting #
  • @joelhousman I have an idea for a podcast, i’ll have to run the idea by you next time I feel like thinking, which might be tomorrow sometime #
  • well I"m off to bed all. night. #
  • @Mikedoe re:britney spears yes I totally agree, Dr. Drew would be able to do more for her than Dr. Crackpot #
  • mail checked, rss feeds read, time for shower before heading to work. #
  • sitting at work. time to do some real work, not sure what I exactly want to do today, but I’ll figure it out. #
  • @sfeuer yes you do, talk to @joelhousman and see if he’ll get you one ;) #
  • @ejacqui I didn’t know you could transfer accounts via USB on intel macs, I still used my firewire… sad… #
  • why do I have to work with people who cannot follow simple fucking instructions and manage to wipe 2 different cards which a vendor supplies #
  • @juliaroy I never though about buying those items @homedepot hmm… I may have to take a look and see how much cheaper they are. #
  • I’ve been antsy all day, I haven’t been able to concentrate on one thing all day, don’t know why. Just seems a bit out of place for me. hmm #
  • time to make dinner #

  • Wow not even 18 miles in an hour. Great. Gotta love traffic. #
  • @Gruber My guess is they ‘count’ sales as what’s in the channel #
  • @chrispirillo re:limewire I keep telling people that, but they never listen #
  • just a note to anybody who owns an ipod. If your ipod freezes when attempting to sync and you have to reboot, your ipod = fucked. #
  • I should say, consistently have to reboot your ipod to get it to sync your ipod = F*cked #
  • well after working 8 hours, drive for 90 minutes, hanging out with the gf for 5 hours, shoveling snow for 30 minutes, it’s time for bed. #
  • night all! #
  • Good morning all… anything good happen while I was sleeping? #
  • @phillymac didn’t know what? #
  • RSS feeds read, cha-ching balanced, breakfast eaten, first load of laundry drying, many podcasts listened to, looking for RAID5/6 server. #
  • @merlinmann my library is thinking of getting rid of all of our sheet music, it’s taking up space and not being used. #
  • anybody have a good storage solution for mac that’s RAID 5 or Raid 6? I’ll check back in about 30… Thanks. #
  • @macosken Thanks for doing MacOSKen Day 6, it’s definitely worth the cost. #
  • off to hang out with the gf, after stopping at the store for some candy for the movie, I won’t pay the movie candy $$. later all. #

  • playing with some PHP code to get some custom reports to work, after putting off this part of my ‘project(s)’ for months #
  • today has been my ‘inform others about mac specifics’ day. The few people I’ve informed today are already mac users. #
  • @phillymac thanks, my gf suggested I create one, and since it’s SUPPOSEDLY ‘windows only’ I had to do some mac-foo to make it work #
  • @film_girl I at least have an excuse, I have my apple mail move twitter messages automagically to my twitter imap folder #
  • @film_girl watch ‘the day after tomorrow’ #
  • I must head to bed, I have to be up in 7 hours or so… night all! #
  • @film_girl night. #
  • take your records, take your freedom, take your memories I don’t need ‘em. Take your space and take your reasons… #
  • to all of those who watched CBS 2 or WGN 9 in Chi-town, Randy Salerno died… here’s the article. http://tinyurl.com/392x4y .. kinda sad. #
  • I just realized that I have surpassed the 3200 updates mark.. this should be 3201 #
  • snow + rush hour + traffic = no fun. #
