08:50 I've got a great idea for an iPhone app, but I'm a web-guy, not an app developer. I need someone's chocolate to go with my peanut butter! #

09:29 @jkusters It's desperation. Every calculation, even generously giving HRC 20 point wins in EVERY remaining contest has her LOSING. #

13:25 For those who watch LOST: is.gd/1ML “I baked you a delicious ham, Juliet” Hee! #

13:38 @megfowler *HUG* #

13:57 Retweeting @megfowler: tinyurl.com/38yg7k – OMG, people suck. #

14:13 @ShanZan Hi! #

14:44 @jkusters AWESOME! Congratulations! How long is escrow? #

15:09 @CurtMonash *Some* do (don't overgeneralize), as many Hillary supporters demonize Obama. Unsurprising. CANDIDATES should be above that. #

15:14 @CurtMonash I'll even grant you that more BHO fans demonize HRC. The actual point was that HRC and BHO shouldn't stoop there. BHO doesn't. #

15:45 @CurtMonash I think we'll have to agree to disagree about that. #

15:46 Which candidate acts how you'd like your kids or neighbors to act? Or prefer to be your boss? Or has a better chance of uniting the country? #

10:01 Time to write a cover letter for the ol' resume. #

12:12 @Willscrlt I'd prefer a product manager/support role. I'm at my best when finding & fixing pain points in process, looking @ whole problems. #

14:45 @chockenberry @ihnatko My wish – An iPhone ebook reader that can read txt & open formats, save its spot, and read text-to-speech on demand. #

16:46 Retweeting @laughingsquid: Naughty Librarians’ Convention 2008 tinyurl.com/ywnkdu – This is like crack especially formulated for ME. #

17:01 HRC “a capable & personable senator who has run the kind of campaign that reminds us of what makes us so discouraged about our politics” -RS #

17:04 Retweeting @davewiner: Rolling Stone endorses Obama. tinyurl.com/2pfkur (that's where the last quote came from) #

17:45 Headed to Beer:30 at St. Stephen's Green in Mountain View. #

08:23 For the record, NIN made online ordering their new album “Ghosts” *much* easier than Radiohead did. Took me 2 minutes, allowed PayPal. #

08:25 The new NIN album, “Ghosts” -ghosts.nin.com/main/order_options — 36 tracks for $5 #

09:46 @aglick35 Best wishes and fast healing, sir! How'd the bike fare? (This was on the motorcycle, not a pedal-cycle?) #

10:25 @missrogue Did being in a couple made it harder to be more close to friends, or just left less time for doing so? For me it's the time… #

12:15 @davedelaney Twhirl can do Jaiku and Pownce as well as Twitter… happy AIR app! #

13:45 @davedelaney I totally understand that. Supporting good projects, and more tools that do the stuff we want is ALWAYS a good thing! #

14:55 Order of the Stick's memorial strip to Gary Gygax: is.gd/1HA @PvPOnline's different take on the matter: is.gd/1HB #

18:19 Sign on truck- Tour of Doodie – Pet waste management. 'We pick up where your dog left off!' #

07:40 Hi @onepinktee and @jettcat! #

10:39 Retweeting @laughingsquid: Gary Gygax 1938-2008, Co-Creator of Dungeons & Dragons tinyurl.com/24a95p #

11:34 Lazyweb: What's the copyright status of a teacher's spoken words during class lectures? Of the notes that students take during them? #

13:55 I'm a Geek of all Trades. I especially enjoy looking at a process for potholes and developing new procedures to get things running smoothly. #

14:46 @jettcat Hi! #

15:23 @Poshy Try Zivity? Seems like a good site. I don't know how the votes/pay works out in terms of real dollars, though… #

15:38 I just discovered that Twhirl's latest version also posts to both Pownce and Jaiku. FTW! www.twhirl.org/ #

16:11 @lisaga Isn't Twhirl the bee's knees? Hm. How to MMO-ize that… The orc's tusks? The dwarf's mug? *shrug* I'm a fan! #

20:35 Feel like puking after Hillary Clinton Ohio speech. Wonder if she can wave any other superstitious lucky charms? #

22:00 *Groan* #

08:26 Got a little extra sleep – just what the doc ordered. Hadn't slept great for a few days prior. Yay REM shuteye! #

11:21 Holy Frozen Forearms, Batgirl! Retweeting @BoingBoing: Batgirl gloves knitting pattern tinyurl.com/ypy7jz #

11:43 #BIL Flickr photoset with pics from BIL2008: is.gd/1BN #

13:44 The calm and peace achieved by taking a coworker to a margarita lunch is shattered by a single message received upon my return. #

14:55 Obama sequel video (also by will.i.am) is brilliant. tinyurl.com/32cnal #Obama #

14:57 Why? It's more of the “message of hope and change”, but more prominently features famous Latinos, some speaking in spanish. T minus Texas -1 #

17:42 @dhewlett I LOVED the “no wonder I feel like a dog's breakfast” line in Friday's aired episode! #

20:18 @princeofwands Nice! I just learned that my wife is a JLA fan. Who knew? Can we borrow? #

20:26 @princeofwands Sure! I'll keep my expectations appropriate – Doomsday was the so-so one, right? #
