10:05 | @seanbonner @gruber Accidental exposure is a danger; intentional exposure is assumed to be controlled & safe. A natural wrong assumption. |
13:43 | I picked a bad day for running errands, although the downpour has since dropped off to a moderate rain. |
14:08 | RT @reduced: Is your Blackberry not working? This diagnostic video might help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAG39jKi0lI [Insightful!] |

15:39 | RT @SethMacFarlane: According to box office returns, Mars does not in fact need moms. [Oh, snap!] |
16:39 | I wonder: If a state passes an anti-sharia law, would that outlaw halal markets & restaurants? What public interest would that serve? |

06:34 | Right elbow hurts something awful. Strained it go-karting yesterday. Wonder how long the pain'll last. |

09:54 | @Profikiskery Grand Old Party. So where's my ten bucks? |
09:56 | @Profikiskery Funny how you can *know* something that isn't true. Didn't need to Google it. |
10:55 | @tesmith99 @keitholbermann Glad to know that I exemplify *something*. I had my doubts. |

06:52 | Two years ago a friend insisted that any concern about nuclear power was overblown & unjustified. Wonder if he still thinks so. #Fukushima |
06:55 | @fraggletastic Really? Explosion at the site? A year's worth of radiation every hour? Suggestions that the water supply is unsafe? |
06:58 | @fraggletastic We clearly have different definitions of "proof". And this isn't over by a long shot. Come back to me in a month or two. |
07:02 | @fraggletastic Doesn't sound like either one to me: http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/story/2011/03/11/earthquake-japan-nuclear-reactor.html |
07:55 | One drag about my new iPad: iTunes loaded all the apps I have on my phone, but not all the folder info. Gonna have to recreate all that. |
08:09 | @MsCaliLogan If it's bad today, it was 10x worse last night. I was in line almost 4 hours at my local mall. |

13:22 | Sounds like the lines at Apple Stores are crazy, with hours to go before iPad goes on sale on the Left Coast. What to do, what to do? |
13:27 | Glad to see Facebook is on top of their tech. My tweets are appearing on FB again after a month of brokenness. |
14:25 | Came within one click of ordering my iPad 2 instead of waiting in line. But I just couldn't do it. Guess I know where I'll be tonight... |
15:41 | On line at Valley Fair. 1:20 before they start selling, and at least 2 more hours of line in front of me. |
18:25 | I can see the entrance to the mall. Won't be long now. #iPad |
18:42 | I'm in the mall! And I have my ticket, so I know I'll get the one I want! #iPad |
20:13 | Home with my iPad. I got on line almost 2 hours before sales began, and they were already out of AT&T models when I reached the store. |
20:14 | Lucky I wanted the WiFi-only iPad. So why am I talking to you instead of playing with it? |
22:30 | AppleTV is really kind of amazing. Need to play with it a lot more. |
