| 07:18 | RT @Decoder_Ring: Amazon has analyzed my likes and dislikes enough to once again suggest I buy my own books. [They're that good.] |
| 12:25 | RT @paulandstorm: [P] #jococruisecrazy site inspection report: towel animals have been confirmed. #JCCC3 [Be afraid. Be very afraid.] |
| 20:43 | Guess I'm not the only one who thought Robert Bork was an unrepentant turd. http://t.co/59XnFgPu |

| 09:38 | @MagdaSzubanski Definitely a Furlow fan. Although I loved you in Babe and the few eps of Kath & Kim I've seen. |
| 11:25 | A fine shoot this morning, a good cheap Thai lunch, and now ready for shoot #2. Today's starting well. |
| 20:38 | Today's final tally: six hours shooting three amazing models, followed by a Cajun dinner with model #3. All in all, a pretty fine day. |

| 04:15 | Riding through early morning rain to Dulles. Flying home in a few hours. |
| 07:09 | Just boarded my flight and settled in, only to be told we're delayed two hour due to conditions in SF. I knew things were going too well... |
| 08:54 | 2nd attempt to board my flight going better. Maybe we'll leave the gate this time. |
| 10:07 | Something Is truly screwed up at Amazon. (Deleting reviews.) http://t.co/3wmFDQsL |
| 12:34 | Just flew by Alliance, Nebraska, home of Carhenge. http://t.co/Zq9AJJAe |

| 06:21 | @Brian_Cowie I like the D800 a lot. Still getting used to full frame, and the resolution is crazy. But I'm getting some great images. |
| 10:18 | Upgrading my iPad to iOS 6. Wish me luck! |
| 12:36 | iPad is now running iOS 6. Would have been sooner, but I was trapped in a meeting. Looks good so far. |
| 13:48 | Debated whether to upgrade my iPhone to iOS 6 with the new one on the way. Decided to go for it. Upgrade has begun... |

| 13:19 | This GOP pinhead is leading in the polls? I weep for America. http://t.co/GqGkSD2V |
| 13:40 | Via @io9, what if someone else had written The Lord of the Rings? I'd love to read some of these. But only some... http://t.co/aB1bhnBp |
| 13:53 | William Windom is dead? "DON'T YOU THINK I KNOW THAT?" (Farewell, Commodore Decker. Also Congressman Morley.) |
| 16:58 | I just bought: 'Fifty Shades of Red Riding Hood' by R. R. Hood via @amazonkindle (I'm so ashamed.) http://t.co/nFuHUpqk |

| 09:41 | Ketchikan. Gray, chilly and soggy. Finally we gave real Alaska weather. Canada tomorrow, then Seattle and home on Saturday. |
| 09:42 | Real photographers don't let a little rain stop them. Clearly, I am not a real photographer. http://t.co/U1e2y0vL |
| 14:03 | Leaving Ketchikan. Next stop, Victoria, BC. |

| 05:42 | Just received an email accusing me of plagiarizing a photo, which is a lie. Heck, it's not even that great or original a photo. |
| 17:21 | @shelbyfero What's wrong? You have a problem with smirky aging frat boys? |
| 17:39 | @lizbelsky We're not? Hey, now that you mention it, we're really not. |
| 20:28 | Thanks to @yakkopinky's podcast, listening to Julie & Steve Bernstein's music at http://t.co/WePkSYgo Why is none of their work on iTunes? |
| 20:46 | @cschweitz So it's all trashy and glamorous, except for the glamor part? |

| 09:38 | It's a sluggish Saturday after my first full week at work. I'll run a few errands. But not yet. |
| 17:45 | "Why Wasn't I Consulted?", the basic question that explains and drives the Web. This is amazing stuff. http://t.co/DaFyWbUz |

| 09:11 | RT @alwayscoffee: Guys, is a Magic 8 ball still an acceptable decision-making tool? I'm, uh, asking for a friend. [Reply hazy, ask again.] |
| 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. |
| 09:37 | An interesting and distressing history of so-called truth drugs. Movies make this stuff seem so simple and true. http://t.co/FbpAJu1E |
| 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. |
| 20:30 | @AnneWheaton Koalas are so unreal, aren't they? Cuter than any creature has a right to be. |

| 06:31 | Reading @Molly23's tweets, I can only conclude that it's possible to find someone adorable and disturbing at one and the same time. |
| 06:44 | @alwayscoffee Look back about 8 hours in @Molly23's Twitter stream and you'll understand my appreciation/concern. |
| 06:45 | @alwayscoffee Also, you're way too far to the adorable side of the adorable/disturbing continuum. And so was she, until now. |
| 06:47 | Santorum is consistent in his positions, if by that we mean consistently offensive to non-prigs. http://t.co/3r0uyV9K |
| 06:51 | @alwayscoffee Not wrong at all. Even better if you've met @Molly23. http://t.co/OQKBXvzV |
| 07:16 | @alwayscoffee Speaking of adorable & disturbing, here's my first exposure to @Molly23: http://t.co/8fpMMHvq |
| 09:44 | RT @VictoriaDahl: From your nationwide bestselling blockbuster hit Fifty Shades of Grey! http://t.co/1NBvxFDz [I will *never* unhear that.] |
| 15:56 | Oooh, pretty. (ASCII art.) http://t.co/h38vfZpb |

| 04:22 | It's cruise day, and I feel like hell. Might have something to do with my total lack of sleep. Must find coffee. |
| 06:04 | This is new. Hotel WiFi says too many people are on, so I can't be one of them. It's because I'm Jewish, isn't it? |
| 09:33 | JoCo sighting! Waiting to check in and board the Westerdam. #jococruisecrazy |
| 10:15 | Paul of @paulandstorm sighting! Found my cabin, which is too cute. http://t.co/GRMR7t2u |
| 10:18 | Oh, and just had a @mariancall sighting. I'm squeeing inside. Which my phone tried to turn into squeezing, which would be wrong. |
| 10:37 | Okay, time to stop tweeting and start drinking. http://t.co/N160K9N7 |
| 10:57 | A piña colada on the Lido Deck is good. A piña colada with a shot of rum on top is even better. |
| 11:28 | Spicy food makes me hiccough. Drinking this Bloody Mary gave me hiccoughs. Ergo, this Bloody Mary is spicy. QED. Also yum. |
| 11:34 | @billamend Yeah, what's up with that? You (or at least Jason) should really be here! |
| 12:18 | @Lomara Not this time; she was with someone, her accompanist I think. But I will. She's really nice. Oh, and I saw @Molly23 as well. |

| 09:53 | Sad that Rick Perry's out, even if he wasn't as consistently entertaining as Bachmann & Cain. Can Newt & Ron Paul step up their game? |
| 09:56 | RT @cschweitz: "I have no questions that Newt Gingrich has the heart of a conservative," @GovernorPerry says. [In a box under the bed?] |
| 10:25 | New Colbert Super PAC attacks Colbert, tells SC voters to choose Herman Cain. Wait, isn't that what Colbert wants? http://t.co/3THLTYyl |
| 13:08 | Did Mitt Romney game the laws around IRAs & 401K to reduce his taxes even further? Sure looks that way. http://t.co/9v0JAJSy |
| 16:48 | Okay, new backup disk acquired. Backups have begun on both my computers. Gonna be a while. |
| 16:59 | Gosh, Newt got Food Stamps story wrong? No trips to Hawaii? I for one am shocked. http://t.co/tu04Yr64 |
| 17:03 | @joshtpm I'm guessing they don't count Black dignity as a value that matters. |
| 17:04 | Thought I'd speed up my network with a couple of Gigabit Ethernet switches. Works great on my MacBook Pro. My Mac Mini? Not so much. |
| 20:44 | Watching Big Bang Theory and heard my phone go off. No message, so what was it? Now I figured it out: it was Penny texting Leonard! #tbbt |
| 21:13 | @VictoriaDahl Yep: Vaunted: boast about or praise (something), esp. excessively |
| 21:16 | @VictoriaDahl On my Mac, double tap with three fingers gets me definition, thesaurus & Wikipedia entry. |
| 21:26 | @VictoriaDahl If you use a trackpad, it sure does. |
