  • Hmm. No new Lost episode on abc.com yet, guess I’ll have to wait until later in the day to get caught up. Till then: Oh Hulu… #
  • “With all due respect Madam President: Ask around.” Heh. Classic Jack Bauer. #
  • Time to update @TweetDeck… Er, install for the first time on this computer. Firing it up and taking for a spin now. #
  • Spotify is hot in TweetScoop, but completely irrelevant in the US because of music licensing issues. Should trend down as we wake up. #
  • @TweetDeck I like single column mode, but wish there was an option for collapsing to the right side of the screen. #
  • Doh! Totally forgot about this game last night. Bradley goals help U.S. dominate Mexico again: http://tinyurl.com/dm44ct #
  • One of the great perks at work that I always forget about is the free catered food leftovers. Mmm… sausage and eggs today! #
  • Playing with MrTweet a little more today. If you haven’t tried this Twitter service before go here: http://mrtweet.net?v=12 #
  • Who watches the Watchmen posters? @morganrichter does of course! http://tinyurl.com/d4ycac #
  • Linus Torvalds has the most amusing 25 things meme response yet: http://tinyurl.com/dkom4y #
  • I love my kids. Mary took them to the library and they wanted books on dinosaurs, volcanoes and trains. Science and transportation FTW! #
  • Last night’s Lost was pretty good. No spoilers here, but I have to say of all the shows I follow I’m most satisfied with Lost’s execution. #
  • Joaquin Phoenix on Letterman last night. Comedic genius or pure train wreck? You decide: http://tinyurl.com/azu2h7 #
  • Sitting on the bed with Nene while waiting for dinner. Not going to be able to see the Zags play after all. Hope they bring it tonight. #

  • At work, now must start the day off right with some cocoa, cinnamon rolls, and a mandarin orange or two. #
  • Thought for the day: There is no time like the present when you’re a character on Lost. #
  • Working on a faculty member’s computer that had 13,000 emails in his inbox! My own total? No comment. #
  • @bre I regularyly eat Top Ramen for lunch; it never occurred to me try it with just soy sauce (or something spicy). Thanks for the idea! in reply to bre #
  • @lancearmstrong I got a good laugh when I discovered I’d been fixied! That’s a handlebar you can work with. in reply to lancearmstrong #
  • Installed feedly at work and putzed around a bit, but now I need to go home. Guess I’ll have to install it there too so I can keep playing. #
  • Eawyn discovered the Caillou website today so we’re getting in a last bit of computer time before bed. #

  • Forgot that sometimes it takes a while for shows to get up on Hulu. I’m ready for yesterday’s Chuck and Heroes now, but no joy. #
  • Not to mention last week’s House should finally be up soon as well as guilty pleasure 24. Plenty to keep me busy until Wednesday (Lost). #
  • @Ed_Dale You’re making the right choice about how to use Facebook. Anybody that complains is nuts and doesn’t really get it. #
  • Snow Leopard will load print drivers on demand. This is a huge improvement for MacOS X: http://tinyurl.com/bs7kqo #
  • @jimmygle Well PHP is pretty much ubiquitous to all web hosts out there, but yeah python is definitely superior in all other ways. in reply to jimmygle #
  • Played with Inkscape for the first time in quite a while. Love that you can save directly to pdf these days. http://www.inkscape.org/ #
  • http://twitpic.com/1fbw8 – One massively delicious cupcake! #
  • Feedly sounds like a pretty interesting mashup of Google Reader, Twitter and Firefox: http://feedly.com/ #

  • As of this morning 2/3 of the way through Watchmen. As good as advertised. I have to wonder how it all gets crammed into a movie though. #
  • @morganrichter At least you can turn to your Heroes for a pick me up at the end of the day. in reply to morganrichter #
  • My friend Dan just picked up a Blackberry Pearl to replace the phone he killed in his washing machine. I think he made a good choice. #
  • Still thinking about Watchmen. The movie is only a month away and looks fantastic. Haven’t gone to one in months, but must see this one! #

  • Cutting out paper hearts with the kiddos. Time for a breakfast break and a homemade cinnamon roll with cream cheese frosting. #
  • http://twitpic.com/1eey8 – Nathan takes a break from rambling. #
  • Weird, I sent a text message tweet before the last TwitPic, but it seems to have gotten lost in the ether. Oh well. #
  • Dinner soon, but first I must wrangle the toddler so Mary can actually put it together. Then turkey and cranberries! #

  • Set Eawyn up with her own account on an old powerbook and helped her download some dinosaur pictures. Clearly she’s a budding geek. #
  • Waiting for a TwitPic to appear. My phone says it went through- not sure what the hold up is. #
  • http://twitpic.com/1dqkq – Budding computer geeks having fun! #
  • Realized my TwitPic mistake: don’t add any text beyond the subject line when sending via mms. Worked fine once I made that correction. #
  • The LeBron Cleveland Browns dream commercial cracks me up every time I see it. #
  • Whoa. Davidson let College of Charleston back into the game while I wasn’t paying attention. Time for some Curry. #
  • http://twitpic.com/1drk3#
  • The Zags are stinking it up on offense and their defense isn’t much better. What a complete and utter disappointment on the national stage. #
  • Digger wants to know where Pargo and Bouldin are and I concur. If they don’t find their game there’s no hope of making this respectable. #
  • Just heard Ammo has been traded to the Lakers. That’s some good news on the Zag front in an otherwise dreadful day so far. #
  • @brendanloy I didn’t see the ND game, but the GU debacle took the headache I already had and made it twice as irritating. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. #
  • @JPhilipson http://twitpic.com/1dwcp – What’s the occasion? #

  • Finally started reading Watchmen this morning after all these years. I want to continue, but I’m tired and ready for bed. Maybe one more. #
  • Last night’s rain turned into a little bit of snow this morning. A bit slick coming into work, but not bad. Supposed to warm up and hit 40°. #
  • @morganrichter Sounds like when I went to see Gattaca at a morning showing when it came out. They don’t show movies that early in Spokane. #
  • Just discovered a homeless guy sprawled on the men’s bathroom floor at work. Security is handling it. Time to go home. #

  • Looks like the dogs are ready for breakfast. Hoping I don’t have to break apart yet another bag of frozen turkey necks. #
  • Watchmen lettering helped spawn Comic Sans?! Say it ain’t so: http://tinyurl.com/ae7ers #
  • Colemak is a post computer keyboard layout alternative to qwerty and dvorak: http://tinyurl.com/anq5zz #
  • Came across this extensive list of eBook formats today: http://tinyurl.com/djnexf #
  • Foxmarks is now supported on Safari and IE. Probably time to start using: http://tinyurl.com/ah3f25 #
  • First Twitter post: 2:42 PM Jul 14th, 2006. 200th Twitter post: right about now. Tweet frequency trending upward after a very slow start. #
  • Just realized I won’t have to miss the Gonzaga – Portland game because it’s on ESPN2 at 8PM rather than the earlier local TV time slot. #
  • I don’t have an iPhone, but Classics demonstrates what an awesome ebook platform it can be: http://www.classicsapp.com/ #
  • Great John Siracusa article on the state of the ebook. I’ve read quite a few books on Palm devices, but I’m still looking for the perfec … #
  • Let’s try that again. Great John Siracusa article on the state of the ebook: http://tinyurl.com/dmwzb4 #
  • I’ve been tempted to participate, but have refrained so far: http://tinyurl.com/c2jowr #
  • @thekristen I generally find them entertaining as well. I think that piece was probably geared towards getting a reaction from facebookers. in reply to thekristen #
  • Time to get in a quick ride so I can chill out and watch the Gonzaga game. Hope it’s in HD- ESPN2 should’t settle for the cheap FSN look. #
  • @mgilman Looks like you are right based on the brief cutaway from the Seton Hall game. This game needs to get over with now. #
  • I guess Gonzaga is losing, but would really love to see firsthand for myself ESPN2. #
  • Finally. Portland is playing some pretty tough and tenacious defense. No easy looks for the Zags. #
  • Hmm. Daye just picked up his 2nd foul. Sikma is going to work in the paint. Doh! Niedermeyer just banked a 3! #
  • Bouldin with back to back trifectas! Zags need a stop. Bingo. #
  • Raivio is tough, but that last three was too deep. #
  • @mgilman Nice looking website. Is that the building you’re located in as well? #
  • Good start to the half for the Zags, but Portland is hanging tough and not going away. #
  • No caffeinated beverages left in the fridge. I may have to break out the French press and brew some coffee because I’m behind on caffeine. #
  • @morgandodge Was that for my benefit? Heh! in reply to morgandodge #
  • @mgilman That is a cool video, but that kid gives me the impression that it’s all his drug induced hallucination. Maybe that’s the point. in reply to mgilman #
  • Just when I thought the Zags might be putting this away they are letting the Pilots back into it. #
  • I think barring an unforseen slump by himself or the team Matt Bouldin will be the next WCC player of the year. #
  • Whoa freaky. I just realized it’s raining pretty hard right now. First precipitation in a while and not what you expect in February. #

  • Tempted to have some early morning ice cream, but went with a mandarin orange instead. That was good, I think I might just have another. #
  • Currently Browsing: http://tinyurl.com/aduqlw Awesome NY Times visualization of SuperBowl tweets. #
  • Doh! Just realized that I neglected to pack one of several delectable chocolate cupcakes sitting on the kitchen counter at home. #
  • Two year old plus a bottle of red pepper on the counter does not a good combination make. Luckily both laptops were closed and survived. #

  • Realized I hadn’t actually used my Gravity to send a tweet yet so I’m rectifying that issue right now. And away we go. #
  • Minor Gravity annoyance that may only bother me. I can’t seem to make custom wallpapers that fully utilize landscape mode. #
  • The nine included Gravity wallpapers utilize the full screen regardless of screen orientatation so it should be possible, but no go so far. #
  • Lots of talk about ruby (webby, nanoc, rubyfrontier) and python (jekyll, hyde) powered static website generators right now. #
  • The technical side of the new Muxtape. Rails based after shedding its PHP roots. http://is.gd/hJKH #
  • The Mean Troy Coke Zero ad – an amusing twist on the classic Mean Joe Greene Coke ad or am I just showing my age? http://is.gd/i4PM #
  • Not having much luck with my efforts to send picture mail from the Gravity. Not sure if it’s the phone or the data network. #
  • Picture mail is go. Going to have to try a TwitPic soon, but I’ve got to get a quick bike ride in now. #

  • Finally figured out how to upload files from the Gravity to my MacBook via Bluetooth. Bluetooth must be on in the Sharing System Preference. #

  • The Twitter Tools plugin is working pretty well except for the fact that it wants to publish tweet digests a day later than it should. #
  • BSG Thoughts: Better episode tonight because their was a lot more open conflict and that’s when Starbuck is in her element. Cliffhanger too. #
  • General consensus in the Twitterverse seems to be that this BSG episode got things back on track. I concur. Less moping- more machination! #
  • @thekristen Have you tried Facebook Scabble yet? I’ve been having a lof of fun getting schooled by my friend Jesse. We should play sometime. in reply to thekristen #
  • Acquired new Samsung Gravity phones this morning. We even won a free bluetooth headset for Mary at the new T-Mobile store grand opening! #

  • I’m glad the Zags got the win, but it’s unfortunate that they didn’t have Patty Mills to overcome in the 2nd half. http://bit.ly/2XB2u0 #
  • I’ve always liked Vim, but only recently made it my primary text editor. Editing is improving, now I need to master buffer manipulation. #
  • Okay, I I now understand window manipulation and navigation in Vim at a very basic level. It all starts with CTRL-W. #
  • I’ve played so much facebook scrabble with my friend Jesse lately that it seems appropriate to borrow @kevinmarks pic idea for a few days. #
  • SMC’s Patty Mills is out for the next month with a broken hand and will most likely miss the GU rematch in Moraga. http://bit.ly/mills-out #
  • Mill’s injury is bad for St Mary’s, Gonzaga and the WCC as a whole on multiple levels. Hopefully the Gaels can rally together and adjust. #
  • Lengthy Ian Hickson (@Hixie) video on “HTML 5 feeatures you want desperately, but still can’t use.” http://bit.ly/2AJ8e0 #
  • Time to buy another tank of gas on the way home. Hopefully this will be my last for a while- I should be able to bike to work more soon. #
  • @midmajority The Mills injury is so unfortunate. Davidson – SMC with Mills vs Curry would have been phenomenal! #

  • Feeling bored and sleepy, I’ve doing a little weeding and feeding with my Twitter subscriptions. Must find new streams of entertainment. #
  • Mary just took Nene to bed, but he’s restless. Hope she can get him to settle down for the night. Is the new Lost up at abc.com yet? Yes! #
  • “It wasn’t a dream. It was a memory.” #
  • Now this is an unexpected opening flash forward- no wait. Flashback?! Nice. #
  • Desmond didn’t actually promise and the Others know how to speak Latin. Interesting. #
  • “Could be five minutes, could also be five thousand years.” #
  • “What about you? Do you want to stay in Crazytown or do you want to rescue the geek?” Gotta love Sawyer. #
  • Ahh. So that’s what this episode’s title was referring to. I think I like the comic book character better. #
  • Well, that finally explains a very important piece of the puzzle. I must say, this season is off to an excellent start. #
  • I’ve been thinking about giving Life on Mars a try. Not this morning, but sometime soon. #
  • Trawling on Twitter for interesting people to follow. Also, a good list of Twitter plugins for Wordpress: http://is.gd/Fq1 #
  • Statsheet.com looks like a really sweet service/web app for sports fanatics. I can’t wait to dig in further. http://statsheet.com #
  • Mark Mason has a pretty interesting offer for free back links that I’m taking him up on as a traffic experiment: http://is.gd/hHJ2 #
  • Looks like the Twitter Tools plugin is doing its job. Cool. I’ll have to add that to a couple other blogs with their own twitter accounts. #
  • “No public internet company stays on top more that 4 years.” Great post on the rise of twitter/hulu vs google/youtube. http://is.gd/gRat #
  • Mr. Spock as Templeton “Faceman” Peck -
    Star Trek as the A-Team: http://is.gd/3YrJ #
  • @KimToomey I’ve got to call you on the OSU statement. Their glory years are just further back: 1500+ D-I wins = 13th all time + 2 FF. #
  • @KimToomey I’m a GU fan like you, but OSU was solid back in the day when they had players like AC Greene and Gary Payton. #
  • @thekristen What’s new and improved about your schedule? #
  • TweetDeck is pretty nice. At this point I don’t follow enough people to keep very many columns filled , but it’s fun to run full screen. #
  • Full desktop view of TweetDeck in action. Information overload rules! http://twitpic.com/18whn #
  • Patty Mills is en fuego from behind the arc. Not good. If he doesn’t cool off he could beat the Zags single handedly. #
  • Wow! 6-8 from 3 before he hurt his hand. Mills was unbelievable. It will be interesting to see if he can play through the injury now though. #
  • Zags started great, but things got gross on offense right around the time Mills started heating up. Too many turnovers/missed opportunities. #
