08:17 In honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day, @paulandstorm's Captain's Wife's Lament. See you guys on the cruise in February! http://t.co/GcDKIe3g
08:30 "I refuse to believe that corporations are people until Texas executes one." http://t.co/qmPUjLHZ
10:36 Laundry getting laundered, boarding pass printed. Off to Toronto tomorrow, singing Blame Canada all the way!
14:55 RT @RizzoTees: It all makes sense now! Why Netflix is splitting in two http://t.co/UR5u7DoP HT @michaeltomko [Oh, now I get it!]
15:34 RT @joshtpm: Oooofff. Sharpton just dropped a "Willard" on Mitt Romney. #gettinserious [At least he didn't call him Mittens.]
18:50 Bad news: The software on my Flip Video doesn't work on Mac OS Lion and it never will. Good news: I never liked that software anyway.
20:34 @VictoriaDahl Seems to me you have to wait at least 30 days before you repurchase or it doesn't count. Or so I was told by a broker once.

06:06 @KobeATL If it's any consolation, I like you much better without permanent artwork.
12:35 Racing to finish lunch before today's shoot, I ended up with mustard up my nose. But in a dignified way.
19:47 Catching up with old episodes of @TheDailyShow. Amazingly, I went an entire week without seeing anything on TV. That never happens.

10:42 I'm now following @TheWinotaur, who's kind of the Bizarro World version of @TheMacalope, who's just kind of awesome.
12:09 After a somewhat shaky start, last night's shoot with the beautiful Melissa Jean was great fun. And then there was sushi!

Thursday's Tweets

07:08 According to @thinkgeek, 44 years ago today Mr. Spock first said "Live long & prosper." So? Have we?
07:39 RT @ebertchicago: ROFL! Two versions of the same photo caption, minutes apart: http://t.co/8kS4JhFK [Maybe it sounds nicer in Italian.]
07:41 How *do* you say "unfuckable lardarse" in Italian?
07:50 @barryeisler Wait! There's a "free" association? Where do I sign up?
08:04 @thinkgeek I did get a "Not yet" from one of my Scaper friends. BTW, love the ears!
08:35 A friend's FB post reminded me of a co-op job I really wanted. It went to a classmate who didn't take it. He was killed on 9/11. Weird, huh?
13:25 Picked up a package. Got to my car and thought, man, they did a rotten job at the carwash. Took a moment to realize it wasn't my car.
14:22 "Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever." Brilliant. http://t.co/5BZYJF0C (via kottke.org)
14:27 George Lucas, now you've gone too far. Too. Far. http://t.co/6ezyHEPe (Emma Stone, I want you. So much.)
14:38 @VictoriaDahl C'mon, Victoria! You have to admit that Rush suggesting someone else is overweight raises the chutzpah bar to new heights.

10:39 @VictoriaDahl So excited you mistyped your editor's Twitter name? That's seriously excited!
10:42 @VictoriaDahl It is? You mean like Vic-to-ri-a-a-ah?
17:57 Interview is done. On BART and headed for home.
21:08 Not so much a review of @barryeisler's latest as an epic pissing contest between two semi-sane writers: http://t.co/XT7rW2eT
21:15 @barryeisler I was grading on the curve. Not knowing Blake, I imagined him as sane. So he and Konrath average to semi-sane.
21:20 @barryeisler You mean Blake is the one lobed man? Or was that the guy who killed Kimble's wife? No, that was one arm...
21:40 RT @lomara: A portion of the money generated by today's Doctor Horrible @teefury shirt goes to Club Mo @motancharoen. I bought 1 [Me too.]

17:55 My road trip is almost done. Tomorrow I drive back to the Bay Area via Yosemite. Might take a picture if there's anything worth shooting.
18:54 Okay, @shutterstock, enough is enough. You reject images for noise, then reject the edits for use of noise reduction. Your reviewers suck.
19:15 Repugs cheer Texas executions, letting uninsured die. So much for "kinder, gentler nation".
19:36 LA Times architecture critic hates new Apple campus because it's suburban? Ironic much, LA Guy? http://t.co/mSGKXOQ
20:31 @gruber My COBRA's around $600 per month. And an equivalent policy will be a whole lot more when that coverage runs out.

16:13 Rain in Mammoth Lakes. But the good news is that it's relatively dry where I wanted to shoot tomorrow. Hope it stays that way.
19:55 Score one for Travelocity. Alpenhof in Mammoth Lakes was a great find, and their restaurant is most excellent. Happy boy.
20:19 From the "Never Seen That Before" file: Strawberry Goat Cheese Bread Pudding. How could I not order that? http://t.co/IL47TGm

10:56 @millhouseyiddo Thanks, Martyn. Today will be uneventful. Saving the fun for the weekend: hot air balloons in Reno!
11:02 Would you spend $5 to help save a bit of history? I just did. http://t.co/qAqx3Ls
14:17 Reading new bio of Davy Crockett. Able to charm his way into Congress, a total failure while he was there. Tea Party would have loved him.
19:21 In my seat at @SJRep with 10 minutes to spare. Judging by the instruments onstage, it's a musical.
22:31 Back from @SJRep. Spring Awakening is a sad story, as only a 19th century German could write. But the music helped & the cast was amazing.
22:32 Got to say hi to the cast after the show. One actress was Lucy the Slut in Avenue Q at SJ Stage. She was less slutty in this one.

19:00 At TheatreWorks in Mountain View for a little Jane Austen. No, not P&P. It's S&S tonight, although I'd prefer Blackadder's A&A.

11:14 Car in for service. Tire pressure light came on during drive home last night. Pressure's fine, so I'm afoot while they figure it out.
16:08 Tim Cook's an impressive guy. Apple the company will do well under him. As for the employees, he's no worse than Steve to work for.
16:09 Stupid tire pressure sensor. Stupid dead tire pressure sensor. Stupid *expensive* dead tire pressure sensor.
18:06 I met Steve Jobs once, at a conference. He was at Next, I was at Sun. Our trade show manager had been at Apple. Steve was kind of a jerk.
18:16 Much as I hated working at Steve Jobs' Apple (and the feeling was clearly mutual), I have nothing but praise for the company & its products.
