Stand By Me tonight on AMC - reminds me Wil Wheaton is @wilw on twitter - worth the follow #
@audette I’ll make sure he finds the discussion tomorrow when I see him at the office #
@audette - u bet - he’s my right hand man - crazy eh? LOL #
I really need to remember to put my netflix dvds in the mail - keeping them for 3 months kinda defeats the purpose #
I had to steal back a bunch of shrts @mrsoilman had headed to the rag bag - I get no respect in my own home #
@DerrickWheeler nice avatar dude #
@DerrickWheeler yeah - when did he change that? #
@DerrickWheeler I’m so glad you said something…I was getting bored #
@eddings no doubt - you planning on another conference this year at all? #
@DerrickWheeler I feel your pain. I can only stand so much company in my home as well #
@eddings - at least those 3 - likely 3 or 4 more on top of that #
@eddings coolio - we’ll have to be sure to actually make a point of it #
@seethegood I’m pointing at whoever took the pic but I have no idea why #
so the most annoying thing about this neighborhood is all the frogs croaking at night - yeah - life is tough ;:) #
@DerrickWheeler why even ask - you know it’s gonna be 80-something and we’re gonna feel ancient #
LOL @chiropractic #
@chiropractic fyi - taking Trileptal - certainly taking the edge of the pain but making me somewhat drowsey - but a fair trade so far #
beer and nacho craving - gonna give in at next commercial break after taking out the garbage - I’m so domestic #
@sallymander mornin #TTwT #
oh man - I totally forgot that Apple has scheduled a twitter outage for today - hehehehe #TTwT #
@JenniferLaycock did you really ask why twitter isn’t working right? hehe #TTwT #
twitter api limits throttled even more today? twhirl shut down after like 2 updates @TTwT #
@rklau have you had your daily dose of kool-aid? also you need to be refreshing digg, engadget and did you sacrifice anything last night? #
@dogballs I guess they haven’t made it to fry’s yet to buy some new servers with that $15M they raise #

@MrsOilman why can’t he go and be the stud of the party? why oh why? #

had a CT scan of noggin last night - nothing bad - MRI brain scan on Tues morning - fingers crossed #
@martinbowling yeah - I was hoping they’d find an alien implant or something #
hehe - several @’s and dm’s after posting about CT scan - http://snurl.com/2efy2 - TN condition has returned and we’re just coverin bases #
@martinbowling concern? half of them want my ftp and adsense logins if it’s a tumor - LOL #
@martinbowling just let me know when and we’ll set you up right #
@longhornkate much appreciated #
so the meds for TN are basically impede nerve activity - the brain is all nerves…TN meds are gonna make me dumb? haha #
@northrock what’s your email addy? I’ll send one over #
@GregBoser “aggressive pioneer” I like that - so very true #
back from pharmacy with script for Trileptal - we’ll see if it works #
@graywolf no doubt - anybody who know me knows I’ve been doing all white hat for clients for a long long time now #
@av8ryxx yep - more or less - check this out for details: http://snurl.com/2efy2 #
@av8ryxx I”m fairly certain you’re right #
@sugarrae I’m not a blackhat but I play one at conferences #
dish network or direct tv? comcast signal sucks - upgraded to HD and HD channels are good and all the rest suck now #
yo @comcastcares why do all my none HD channels suck since I upgraded to a HD box? they were great on the basic digital box… #
so that’s one vote for Dish and one for DirecTV - thanks a lot tweeps - hehehehhe #
@martinbowling oh man - you can’t miss pubcon - srsly #
@comcastcares wow - fast response component cables - HDMI gave no signal at all - I’ve read very few folks get it working with HDMI #
just got some spam with subject “Update Your Penis”. I wasn’t aware there was new version of *ahem* firmware - haha #
@comcastcares appreciate the advice - I’ll try diff cables but it’s a picture issue not a sound issue - HD channels are great - normal sucks #
