  • Shaping up to be a great day for the Pacific Populaire! 100 km route for me! #
  • http://twitpic.com/2vdfx – Marshalling for the Pacific Populaire. Ride delayed b/c too many ppl! #
  • http://twitpic.com/2vttb – 100 km in the Pacific Populaire in just under 4 hrs. W00t! #
  • Twitter poll: who here in BC knows what STV is? I’m curious if the Global story about STV is really representative of the public’s awareness #
  • Sounds like some serious earthquake damage in Italy. You’d think those old stone bldgs have been thru so many quakes that they wouldn’t fall #
  • North American MSM has yet to pick up on the Italian earthquake. Man, you really can’t beat #twitter, can you? #
  • OK, my completely unscientific and self-selecting poll tells me … Global biased their story a bit. 100% of BC tweeps know STV. #
  • BC-STV is a fundamental change to our electoral system. You owe it to yourself to make an educated decision in the May 12th referendum! #

  • Getting ready to bike to Preschool Curiosity Club at Science World. #
  • OK, all set for tomorrow’s Pacific Populaire: 100 km ride through Vancouver and Richmond! The weather looks like it will be stellar. #
  • N Korean rocket launched tonight. Importantly, Japan did not try to shoot it down. Sounds like cool heads prevail. #

  • #canucks Taylor Pyatt’s fiancee died in a car accident yesterday :( #
  • If #google does “partner” with #twitter, maybe they can show them how to do load-balancing. Seems like molasses in the system today! #
  • Here’s my #followfriday recommendation: @fakesteveharper. Except, I don’t think he’s fake. #
  • RT @eastcoastgranpa: Ok, Missing something here. If you are a Canadian citizen then why can’t you come home? http://bit.ly/YFAx0 #
  • Seriously Dell? I might have agreed to get emails, but 3 w/ same content, title sent to same addx within hrs of each other? Unsubscribe. #
  • Make that 4 instances of the same Dell email. Already unsubscribed, now setting filter to direct to Trash. #CrossedALine #
  • Boy #2 had solid food for the first time tonight. Yum! Rice gruel. It went over ok, wasn’t rejected out of hand, wasn’t completely embraced. #
  • <sigh> The Canadian gov’t just bought back airport lands at CFB Shearwater (in Halifax/Dartmouth) for $8M; lands it sold in 2002 for $1.5M. #
  • Things the Conservatives don’t believe in: talking to the public (Harper), the Charter of Rights (Cannon), evolution (Goodyear, Lunney). WTF #
  • RT @CacheAdvance: RT @TripCyclone: Groundspeak bans ALR from caches: http://tinyurl.com/cjy962 #gc #geocaching #
  • On reading the forum, I’m surprised how strongly some people didn’t like ALRs in caches. I don’t see the harm and will be sad to see them go #
  • In other news, the Koreas, Japan, and China are going to be pretty tense over the next few hours and days to come. :( #
  • And so it starts. RT @BreakingNews: FLASH — TOKYO — JAPANESE MEDIA: NORTH KOREA HAS LAUNCHED MISSILE #
  • RT @BreakingNews Japanese government says its rocket detection system, called Em-Net, failed and prompted a national alert on live TV [oops] #
  • “Donny I don’t care where we are. Lethbridge, jail, …” Erm, huh. Somethings *are* worse than jail. #flashpoint #

  • RT @FakeSteveHarper: Went to Zoo Bar w/ Sarkozy last night and got totally blitzed. Missed morning photo today as a result. Ugh. Head hurts. #
  • The Improv Everywhere “Best Funeral Ever”: hoax. CW11 (TV) watched, reported as fact on news w/o any calls, fact-checking. Whither j. integ? #
  • Continuing the embarrassment he heaps on the country, Harper missed the G20 group photo. BBC ridicules him for “being in the loo”. #
  • The real story about the Harper G20 photo gaffe is probably that Fox News asked him for an impromptu interview and his ego couldn’t resist. #
  • Car cuts off dumptruck going thru traffic circle. #dumb Pickup goes wrong way thru same traffic circle at same time. #dumber #tryingtokillme #
  • Dear $ENGINEERING_COMPANY, your all-Flash website is *extremely* annoying. #
  • RT @Stv: Jesus! http://is.gd/qlEx – Keira Knightly’s stop domestic violence PSA. [Wow, that’d never air in Canada!] #
  • BBM radio ratings are out. @cbcvancouver is touting their #1 morning show. @buzzbishop is touting @virgin953’s #1 morning show. Uh, what? #
  • #adoption @herbadmother Seeking brother, b. 1963, potentially adopted by BC couple LARSEN. Please contact if you have any leads! #
  • Well this is going to be quite the game. Wellwood scores, 2-2 #canucks #
