Twitter Weekly Updates for 2011-04-25
- I will note that "minus 40 below zero" is nonsensical. What is "minus 40 above zero"? #NWTForADay #cdnpoli #
- The Cons and Harper fear-mongering over Quebec separation is insulting. It reeks of desperation. #cdnpoli #elxn41 #
- Adrian Dix on HST on CBC Radio: In favour of returning to PST. Rick Cluff: What about the costs of returning? AD: Don't care, need PST. #
- At no time does Adrian Dix say why a return to the PST makes sense. Do you know why? Because it makes NO SENSE. #bcpoli #
- Now we're subjected to #LPC attack ads. Time for Canadians to rise up + show we will not be terrorized by our politicians! #cdpoli #elxn41 #
- Raffi (@Raffi_RC) wants youth to VOTE http://bit.ly/evjmwk #cdnpoli #elxn41 #
- Decided to see what all the #suntv fuss was all about. 1st I had to enter our TV's "kid filter" PIN. Then subjected to CLR commercial. Bleh. #
- This was a triumph. I'm making a note here, huge success. #
- The kids are currently watching "Shalom Sesame: It's Passover, Grover!". Will it be followed by "How to Survive a Zombie Uprising"? #
- Anyone notice how the solid … uh … cocoa lapine confections … are 20% lighter now? 350g instead of 454g! #
- It's that weird transition time of year when I need to bring full rain gear, cool weather gear, + shorts to deal w/ weather on my commute. #
- Server which wouldn't come to life yesterday at all started today first try. This, kids, is why you should never turn off your servers. #
- Pamela Wallin whines that @M_Ignatieff is getting more press. If it's true, perhaps her guy should, I dunno, answer questions? #cdnpoli #
- Are the #LPC getting more media coverage? You be the judge: http://bit.ly/iaFu0G (Hint, not even close) #cdnpoli #elxn41 #
- If Harper continues to insist that the party with the most votes *is* the gov't, w/o a majority, let's have a country-wide runoff! #cdnpoli #

- Listening to Vancity Councilor Anton on #OTC I … uh … can't quite follow her logic. @CBCStephenQuinn #

- I don't understand what everyone's fretting about. We're only down by a field goal, right? #canucks #
- All kidding aside, if the #Canucks can recover in game 6, or game 7 even, this will be an excellent "learning" experience for them. #
- Of course, if they don't it's going to be a huge monkey on their back for the next decade. Or two. #
