  • RT @brandonbell: Apr 8: Kelowna #geocache mistaken for bomb #gc http://is.gd/rBxQ [Urban caches need clear labelling!] #
  • The CRIA is trying a grassroots campaign for a Canadian DMCA. I don’t know why anyone would support it. http://is.gd/rD0I #
  • Semi-spammy email this morning: “Microsoft Excel Macros Made Easy”. They clearly have no idea who they’re dealing with. #HaventGotA10FtPole #
  • Watching City Hall tweets with a little bit of terror. As a renter I figure that if landload tries to evict, we can extend fight ~1yr (1/2) #
  • which gets us beyond the Olympic accom. crunch. Discussions about protecting renters only lessens chance of eviction. I hope. (2/2) #
  • We’ve got rocks and trees and trees and rocks and rocks and trees and trees and rocks and rocks and trees and trees and rocks and water! #
  • Awkward chatter from @starbucks barista: “Happy Easter [beat] or weekend [beat] or whatever it is to you …” Lol, thanks. I think. #
  • There’s something we’re not being told abt Karbovanec. Why would he plead guilty to 3 murders + get sentenced to life in prison so quickly? #
  • Oh look, the sun is coming out! I guess softball practice will go ahead. #
  • Off to softball practice. Haven’t thrown a ball for 3 or 4 years. This will be fun. #
  • Survived softball practice. Seems likes a really cool team, looking forward to playing games this summer! #

  • RT @bcalmanac BC-STV. Has its time come, or is first-past-the-post right for B.C.? We debate it on today’s show at 12 noon on CBC Radio One. #
  • Argh! @Tweetdeck got rid of unread tweet count *and* spell check. Why, why, why? #
  • Yay! 95 minutes of network troubleshooting. The joys of working at a small company. We *need* an IT person. #
  • OK, found some time to listen to the Jian Gomeshi / BBT -*thing*-. I’d love to have seen/heard what happened after the camera turned off. #
  • In other news, there’s no way I could host Q. I’d have lost my patience and temper pretty quickly. #
  • Here’s my take on STV in just under 140 characters: (next tweet) #
  • BCSTV: Rank all candidates. They need set # of votes 2 be elect’d. Go dn your list: if cand. hasn’t rec’d enough votes s/he gets yours! #

  • Ah yes. Apparently the Cons also have no sense of humour. That wasn’t a very polite response to @bradinator and @winecountrydog #roft #rotfl #
  • Today is @LeftCoastMama’s 29th birthday; which is weird since we’ve been dating/married for the past 18 years. Happy Birthday Gwen! #
  • The guy who tried to tell me, @Bradinator and @winecountrydog off is a journalism student at UBC. That wasn’t very professional. #twittacks #
  • I’d expect UBC j-school to teach their students better than “STFU”. Strange Tweets From Unsophisticates? I suppose neocons only know attacks #
  • Today is @LeftCoastMama’s 29th birthday; which is weird since we’ve been dating/married for the past 18 years. Happy Birthday Gwen! #
  • Gorgeous ride in this morning. Sunny, calm, and 10C. Not too hot, not too cold! Plus, no #asshat drivers! #biketowork #
  • I forgot to mention that last Friday I received the BSG Trilogy book from @torbooks’ #twitter contest! Thanks Tor! #
  • Is Harper tightening his grip in a desperate attempt to avoid losing his job? Recent PMO behavior is very discouraging. http://is.gd/rgvD #
  • RT @impolitical: $150 million for private broadcasters being considered by Cons…CBC, hello? http://is.gd/rhH9 If true, absolute OUTRAGE #
  • Finished making cream cheese icing for @LeftCoastMama’s birthday (carrot) cake. Dunno how I’m going to light all those candles safely… #

  • RT @CKNW: Vancouver Police say the Burrard Street Bridge is closed because of an accident, and it will remain closed for morning rush hour. #
  • Apparently we’re going to see U2 and the BEP. Must remember to bring ear plugs. Last U2 concert left me w/ permanent ringing :( #
  • All the avatar pics disappearing from #Tweetdeck. It’s like an eerie SF movie where everyone’s faces become the same. #twitter #
  • Holy. Crap. Roll-cages FTW http://is.gd/r4Cx (WRC driving error puts car off the side of a big hill) #
  • Boo! @VancouverSun is reporting that the Tour de Vancouver won’t be held this year. #cycling #
  • RT @jumpingpuppet: someone was just shot at the Husky Station at 70th and Marine RIGHT OUT SIDE MY APARTMENT… about 10 shots.. #gangcouver #
  • (last tweet was via @raincoaster) #
  • Too tired. Huge panda bear travel bug (yes, really http://is.gd/r8Yx ) just fell on surprised cat. “Rolled On Feline; Terrified!” #ROFT #
