| 18:30 | Was I always such a lousy driver in rain at night, or is this something new? |
| 18:32 | Having a nice Italian dinner before I see Billy Connolly. Worth the drive and the traffic and the rain. |
| 19:28 | Photo at Marines Memorial is a young Burgess Meredith. I was sure it was Shemp Howard! |
| 23:25 | Billy Connolly was hysterical! Well worth the freeways and streets full of rain. Glad I made the trip to SF. |

| 09:24 | Fun night distributing sweets in Los Altos last night. Glad I brought an emergency supply; we went through most everything we had. |
| 10:56 | After #sandy, it's clear to all that Mitt calling FEMA immoral is itself immoral. Even Mitt can see that. http://t.co/RTCVaXHe |
| 20:55 | Yeah, pretty sure Chuck Lorre was right about the censors. And about the uncensored version. http://t.co/1Ut1P9PP |

| 08:00 | Ohio votes could be discarded because poll workers are idiots. Really. http://t.co/8h7xNlGn |

| 15:53 | @paulandstorm @PFTompkins @letsgetshort @janiehaddad That explains it. I wondered what a pencil lol was. |

| 10:39 | Seems Apple didn't copy Sony; Sony actually copied Apple. Poor deluded Samsung. Or are they just lying liars? http://t.co/XIssXfJk |
| 18:31 | Why this Chick-fil-A business is about a whole lot more than free speech. http://t.co/GjhbT9QV |
| 20:44 | Anybody want some free @mariancall music? I have DL codes, and she's cool with it. |

| 11:38 | My MacBook's trackpad is tracking randomly or not at all. Waiting at the Apple Store for my Genius Bar appointment. How's your Sunday going? |
| 13:12 | Quick visit to the Apple Store. It'll take a few days to get my MBPS back, but it'll be free. Lucky trackpad died with a month of warranty. |
| 14:38 | There are far too many dark gray Camrys around here. |
| 15:55 | RT @pourmecoffee: Kudos to this guy for playing it ultra-straight: http://t.co/Njmi0SfW [Explains the Amazon outage.] |
| 20:35 | Great. Rob Schneider is the new Jenny McCarthy, a thought that makes me a little bit nauseous. And I watched ¡Rob! http://t.co/MO7c7wrB |
| 20:55 | What to use while my MBP is in repair? Work ThinkPad? I think not. Old MacBook? Could do, but I'm spending all my time with my iPad. |

| 18:58 | RT @pourmecoffee: "46% of Americans believe God created humans in their present form within the last 10k years" http://t.co/SZN70aM0 [Gack!] |
| 19:15 | RT @ItsJennaMarbles: Gay marriage is legal in 6 states. Having sex with a horse is legal in 23. Good going America. [It is to weep.] |
| 21:40 | Amazon gave me a delivery date for my D800. Well, sorta; some time between late June and late July. Vague much? |

| 12:04 | 8am start tomorrow for my @MythBusters experiment. And it's a 2 hour drive from here. What *have* I done? |
| 15:06 | RIM stages event at Sydney Apple Store in desperate grab for attention & relevance, fails at the latter. http://t.co/bcxvCLxx |
| 15:09 | Funny. Saw a tweet that said what I wanted to say, realized it was mine. Shouldn't change my avatar; it only confuses me. |
| 17:17 | @nprscottsimon Surely that's more elegant, brilliant, beautiful and cosmopolitan than asking "Who farted?", isn't it? |
| 17:20 | "The incompleteness of the (new BlackBerry) phone only becomes apparent when it is switched on." (It can't make calls.) http://t.co/FEKjKgO9 |
| 20:25 | Thanks to @KevinPollak's Chat Show, need to reconsider the musical Wicked. Saw it in SF & wasn't thrilled. They rewrote it right after that. |

| 08:44 | Am I just cranky, or are this year's April Fool stunts particularly lame and annoying? |
| 15:31 | No, http://change.org, repeating Mike Daisey's lies about Apple doesn't make you heroic or even relevant. It makes you gullible idiots. |
| 15:33 | RT @neiltyson: Yup. If pasta & antipasta ever touch, they annihilate. That's why restaurants never serve them together. [The man's a god.] |
| 19:23 | @GeekandSundry I waited 8 1/2 hours in line for my iPhone 4. How's that? |
| 19:33 | @GeekandSundry San Francisco to Sydney for a Farscape convention. Twice. |
| 20:05 | @Lomara I got to talk to @FeliciaDay! How cool was that? |
| 20:06 | I just got to spend a few seconds on the @GeekandSundry Google+ hangout! Talked with @FeliciaDay and everything! |
| 21:04 | @AnneWheaton You are having *way* too much fine with them googly eyes! |
| 21:50 | Crap. My mom gave me plain paper napkins with my school lunches. Clearly she didn't love me at all. http://t.co/BS7xr2iK |

| 09:34 | RT @VictoriaDahl: “@TPM: BREAKING: Senate votes 51-48 to kill Blunt amendment http://t.co/ZqyMA4iJ” Yes! Yes, yes, YES! [Too damn close.] |
| 10:05 | RT @ebertchicago: Andrew Breitbart: "I liked being hated more than I liked being liked." http://t.co/fo5xRB87 [Mission accomplished.] |
| 17:56 | Wisconsin legislator proposes most misogynist law yet, equating single parents to child abuse. Wow. http://t.co/2uRK4AOw |
| 18:57 | RT @BreakingNews: New Zealand's iconic but quake-crippled Christ Church Cathedral to be demolished - http://t.co/EnYY0qkb [Tragic.] |
| 19:18 | Someone should tell Sarah Palin that keeping quiet would be a better strategy. Oh, someone has? Several someones? http://t.co/0IahA7Xs |

| 08:17 | Even if he means well, Mitt sure says stupid things: "I'm not concerned with the very poor." http://t.co/89AOcrbL |
| 10:31 | Paul of @paulandstorm demonstrates his total awesomeness. Storm, you're up. http://t.co/AopITr1e (They sing nice too.) |
| 10:37 | Speaking of awesomeness, how did I survive Saturday mornings without Space Stallions? http://t.co/NefRMfGJ |
| 11:02 | Robotics research explains why the better we get to know Mitt, the more uncomfortable he makes us. http://t.co/0SPaot77 |
| 11:57 | @pemalevy Three big names? I see only two. |
| 16:21 | Austin really knows how to do Valentines Day. http://t.co/2pxDc8FA |
| 16:23 | Need more evidence that Bill O'Reilly is an idiot? Besides that "tide goes in, tide goes out" nonsense, I mean. http://t.co/kXZbOrvv |

| 08:44 | My resolution for 2012: stop playing most Facebook games, which I kept playing because stopping would admit what a waste of time they are. |
| 14:18 | Listening to @CarTalk, and one *special* caller. A Mustang trunk full of compost? Grounds for divorce, I'd say. Or commitment. Maybe both. |
| 14:50 | Listening now to @OnTheMedia. Pieces about moderating blog comments match my own admin experience. Free speech meets civil speech. |
| 17:08 | Just listened to the latest Red Panda episode from @Decoder_Ring. Show just keeps getting better. http://t.co/KEwtZ9Ri |
| 18:45 | Is this how old age begins? I find myself watching a rerun of Murder She Wrote. How did this happen? |
