Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-05-31
- The 19 month old is an enthusiastic nose-blower. His aim into the kleenex, however, needs work. #IveBeenSlimed #
- Quinlan is gaining a word or so every day or two now. Yesterday was "Cheese!", today is "Dianthe" (one of our cats) #LanguageExplosion #
- I love working holidays. No traffic. No distractions at work. Peaceful, easy feeling, ya know? #
- You know the whole "Hell freezing over" thing? The Weather Network has forecast just that for YVR next week http://bit.ly/90nixb (-99?) #
- RT @Zoeyjane: It's a beautiful day in the neighbourhood. It's also 'international adore @leftcoastmama' day. #
- Ha, reactivated a cache yesterday that had been disabled for the Olympics (then the lack of a new ammo can) and it was found today. #
- Double Exposure Radio! I had no idea. The power of Twitter brings you @doubleexradio #
- RT @604homesguy: purge purge purge. It is the only way to survive living in a small space. #yvr [So true. And we're so bad at it] #
- Joys of working for a small company: Just finished writing press release. Yes, I'm an engineer. I write good, though. :D #
- And yes, I saw every single one of you PR/media types flinch when you read that tweet. #
- RT @geowoodstock: LAST CALL for registrations! We'll be shutting down registrations tonight at 10pm (PDT) http://www.geowoodstock.com #
- There are griefers everywhere :( RT @imfrog2002: Here's the photo I grabbed from the facebook page. http://twitpic.com/1qr9jf #geocaching #
- On CBC tonight, The Fifth Estate has a documentary about 9/11 "Truthers". Interesting stuff. The stuff tinfoil hats are made of. #
- Someone's been playing with the clone brush RT @vanmacguy: Quite the fleet. http://twitpic.com/1qt9y1 [via @zenFish #
- Oooh, mtn-man is publishing! Maybe we'll get to show Vancouver how Well Hung we are :p #geocaching #
- RT @tomdanielson: Always wear your helmet. Always. http://twitpic.com/1qtiqb #
- Caches still being published, but not ours yet. mtn-man outlasts me tonight, gotta get to bed before the toddler gets up. #
- Un-friggin-believable. Remember that former Ontario AG who drove a cyclist into a mailbox? Charges were dropped today. Unbelievable. #
- Between Jaffer and Bryant, it sure *seems* that if you are a politician and in Ontario, you can do whatever the hell you want. #
- Wet ride into work today. Good thing I know where my towel is. #TowelDay #SoLongAndThanksForAllTheFish #
- RT @joanchang: Hey Abbotsfordians! CBC's Early Edition is coming out your way this Friday. We'd love you to come. http://tinyurl.com/2avtcum #
- RT @johnnyabc: Has anyone noticed that NK is blank on Google maps (not Google Earth). There are maps of Iran, but nothing on NK at all. #
- Maybe it was last night's documentary on 9/11 Truthers, but does absence of any labels in North Korea on Google Maps have any significance? #
- Although the missing North Korea map data is apparently nothing new: http://bit.ly/aRQZda @jimwtodd @johnnyabc #
- Take-away from the Bryant case? It's ok for politicians to drag aggressive cyclists w/ a car, to their death. Even if you're caught on video #
- RT @gmarkham: Brilliant report on vaccine-autism issue & piss-poor job media do reporting scientific issues http://bit.ly/d3iaoj #
- Have you seen the "graphic essay" abt anti-vaxxer Dr. Wakefield http://bit.ly/91petn ? His methods clear child abuse, the harm immeasurable. #
- RT @seaforth100 http://bit.ly/cbHmOb Seaforth Highlanders Community Ceilidh on May 29th #
- "Brad! <<He's always just around>>" #Glee #ThePianistMakesTheShowAwesome #BreakingTheForthWall #
- What's up with all the old singers on American Idol? The judges tell the contestants to be contemporary then put this stuff in the finale? #
- Ever notice how there are an awful lot of dead-end alleys in Sunnyvale? #BTVS #
- Also, the whole "conservation of momentum" thing seems to be suspended in Sunnyvale #btvs #
- Sigh. #BTVSFail Sunnydale. Not Sunnyvale. Pretty sure momentum is conserved in Sunnyvale, CA. #
- Another day of waiting for our 7-cache series to get published. mtn-man, you're killing us here. #geocaching #
- Our Well Hung series is *mostly* published! For some reason mtn-man has omitted the final cache in the series. E.g., http://bit.ly/afOAqS #
- The cache that hasn't been published yet is the one that makes the rest make sense, and has big FTF prize. And took 1 hr to place. #
- Oh well, it'll confound the FTF hounds. I'm ok with that :) #geocaching #
- We're heading to Nova Scotia tomorrow for 2 weeks. Red-eye, hopefully the kids sleep. What? Stop laughing. #
- Oh god. The guy in the states who shares my name is applying for more universities with the wrong email addx. I think it's on purpose now. #
- RT @CacheAdvance: Ten B.C. getaways put escape within reach (including #geocaching http://bit.ly/cB7UFc #
- One person FTF'd 4 of the 6 caches already this morning. 1 DNF'd, 1 not attempted. Wonder if someone else will beat her to the last 2. #
- That's @jannarden on CBC Radio's Q right now. She's got a nice radio voice! #
- All 6 of the published caches are found, FTFs split between 2 ppl. Had to go and do maintenance on one of them already, tho'. :( #
- Q woke up at 11:45pm. It's almost 3am now, and he's still awake. This is *not* how to start a travel-to-NS day. #
- Awesome, mtn-man published the last in our 'Well Hung' series this morning; http://coord.info/GC29217 #geocaching #
- I wonder which of the 3 ppl who have already completed the series will get the FTF. My money's on Cuddlefish (if she grabbed the clues) #
- And, sure enough, Jacqueline (aka Cuddlefish) grabbed the FTF on the puzzle cache this morning already. #geocaching #WellHung #
- We connect thru Calgary tonight. Which has 20 cm of snow forecast today. We'll be in shorts and sandals. What could go wrong? #yyc #westjet #
- RT @TheBadCop #GQotD #Geocaching Question of the Day: @AnthonyFloyd wants to know, have you ever removed a cache you felt was inappropriate? #
- Crazy day continues. EMCON begins. #
- Free YVR wifi rocks!. Done today: cache maintenance, field trip, privilege pass, kindergarten orientation, and getting to airport. Check. #
- Next step, red-eye flight to Halifax. #
- Made it to Calgary. No snow on the ground. Ya'll are just pulling our legs with the "snow in June" thing, right? #
- Why yes, this seems to be Halifax. Sunshine and mid 20s today. No sleep at all on the flight for us. Aidan got 4.5 hrs, Q got 2. #MmmmBrains #
- Found some in-stock Kobo Readers at Chapters today, at MicMac Mall, in Dartmouth. Picked up one for Gwen, one for my father. Most excellent. #
