08:27 When the photographer becomes the photographee. Thanks, Craig! http://t.co/Itzqy8Oa
08:29 @HappyTinfoilCat Sorry, but open is open. You can't declare open source and then hold it back when it's convenient.
08:47 @HappyTinfoilCat It's more than config files. Google says differences between publicly available & what's on Nexus is nobody's business.
09:04 @IsobelCarr But how could even a lesbian resist such virile masculinity? Besides, she's just waiting for the right one to turn her straight.
09:04 @IsobelCarr And yes, I'm aware that that's total crap.
09:35 Scratch an extreme moralist & you'll likely find a perv. (Santorum asks to photograph Lindsay, then lamely denies it.) http://t.co/Mp3hJTLU

16:28 My uncle played his age in golf. He was 80 at the time. Newt's unpopularity nearly reaches his age: 64.4% at 68. He's working at it.
17:46 RT @pourmecoffee: Newt Gingrich's Secret Service ends tonight, Must hurt to lose someone you thought would be there for you. [*snort*]
17:59 Those 31 GOP Senators who voted against reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act? Clearly they don't believe in a vengeful God.
23:06 RT @LittleLeaguelol: New strip, everyone! http://t.co/YnrE4Y8L [Yay! Also, about time.]

09:18 With Newt finally admitting defeat, does this mean more press coverage for Ron Paul. No. No, it most certainly doesn't.

07:52 Fox News' Steve Doocy lies about his earlier lies, clarifies nothing except that he's a partisan hack. http://t.co/76DRp2az
08:00 A sequel to Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? Sounds better than the original book. Wonder if I can get it on my iPhone... http://t.co/hMETPEES
09:22 Consistency is a virtue, right? Consistently wrong, not so much. Pundit fantasies on GOP nominees: http://t.co/lWxnOhEG (I blame the drugs.)
11:00 Just paid for my July cruise to Alaska. Guess that makes it real now, huh? State #50, I'm coming to see you.

14:53 Best product reviews EVER! http://t.co/u2Da0k4W
18:15 Had one of those experiences that remind me of how much I hate going into Fry's. Not exactly bait & switch, but not far off.
18:19 Installing a Wii has given me a headache. I blame Rachel and her Rock Band party.
23:10 A little excitement at my friend's studio tonight. Someone amused himself by setting a dumpster on fire. Many thanks to the Santa Clara FD.

09:12 In a haze this morning. Saw Spamalot with friends last night in SF, followed by late ice cream attack. Good judgment in short supply.

10:44 Call to my cell with no message turns out to be political survey/cruise deal. Found whole thread on this scam by Googling phone number.

22:59 @mariancall I saw a theatrical version of Singing in the Rain in Melbourne. Saw an actor do the whole bouncing off walls thing & was amazed.

11:05 Rick Santorum's ending his campaign? Part of me is sad. (The part that revels in absurdity.) Too late for Perry or Cain to get back in?
11:08 Santorum didn't even wait for home state Repugs to show their disdain? No guts, no gory.
11:12 With Santorum out, is this Ron Paul's moment? (Uh, no.)
11:23 @JustaSunGod How could you forget Ron Paul? I can't, no matter how hard I try.
11:28 RT @TheStevenWeber: Now Santorum can go back to restoring his good name. [*snort*]

08:59 @petersagal How many software engineers does it take to change a #lightbulb? None, it's clearly a hardware problem.
09:01 @petersagal How many hardware engineers does it take to change a #lightbulb? None, we'll change the documentation.
