  • The Sun is big. How big? Check out this pic of a coronal mass ejection with Earth inset for reference http://t.co/7Q775TSC #
  • Reviewing team commits. "Improved (…) which seemed to be struggling in its mandate to do what it was told." #programmersarefunny #
  • FWIW, "scallops" – particularly Digby scallops – are pronounced "skawl-ops" not "skal-ops" #twitch #otc #
  • And apparently the NS Wine Association has an uphill battle here in BC. #otc #
  • Just watched the season finale of Continuum. Very surreal to be watching on this particular day. #

  • :facepalm: RT @alexwarrior: @AnthonyFloyd Lol another today! (Argronomy/Wesbrook Mall) http://t.co/L6fEwDrE #
  • Quiet ride on the Off-Broadway tonight fr Commercial back to Fairview. Don't the hipsters flock west to Kits, opposite to the Burnaby crows? #

  • .@604homesguy Actually that's $989,900. Based on Fairview Green selling 3 bdrm at $1.86M, they're within "market" #
  • These 6:30am telecons aren't so bad when the weather's nice, but I imagine they'll really suck when having to ride in the rain. #
  • Story in the Vancouver Sun refers to Reddit thread, links to story on UK's Daily Mail but not Reddit. #fail #globalmediaconspiracy #
  • Oops. RT @Seanfunk: Pic of the dump truck that hit the gaglardi overpass. @news1130traffic http://t.co/j0IYEnh5 #
  • Why can my 3 yr old sing along with "Call Me Maybe"? So much blame to go around. Not the least is CBC Radio 1 right now. #otc #

  • Click. Click. Click. The sound of a starter motor not quite turning over. #evanslake12 #
  • RT @bccycle: Tracks of death gone from 1st Ave by Granville Island! http://t.co/9GT1SsRs #bikeyvr #
  • So … Windows 8 is an OS that works poorly as both a touch OS and a desktop OS. Well, ok then. http://t.co/sn04SjiO (watch the painful vid) #
  • Can I Go Nowhere With You? Love this song. Always gets me chair-dancing. @thepeak @jplaskett #
  • Tonight there was much jumping. http://t.co/I79lZLSY #
  • The bike route into UBC has been teeming with bikes this week. Awesome weather too. Hopefully they keep it up! #bikeyvr #
  • Yes, school's back in. Why do 20% of motorists turn into complete idiots when that happens? #
  • I wish as many Canadians in my Twitter stream were as excited about Canadian politics as they are about the US presidential elxn. #cdnpoli #
  • Of course, I also wish we had a federal leader who could generate the sort of excitement that the US presidential candidates do. #cdnpoli #
  • Not too many bikes on the bike route this morning. Not too many cars either. #TeleconWithEurope #
  • Rode down off-Broadway bike route as WPG Academy was getting out. What a gong show. Stopping in the middle of road for pickup? #asshat #
  • If only we could math cool in high school, instead of smoking. Maybe ban math text books? Force them to have plain paper covers? #
  • If cougar sightings are going to cause problems for the Whistler GranFondo … why are they going to Whistler!? #cougartown #
  • Finally replaced personal backup drive at work + I'm at the tail-end of rsync'ing our photos there. Phew, will be able to sleep well again. #

  • Il pleut pour la première fois depuis longtemps #winteriscoming #

  • The product documentation I've been reading for the past 90 minutes just referenced XKCD (http://t.co/gr4f1ZJ9). I think I'm in love. #
  • Wait, PM Stephen Harper is up north of 60 searching *personally* for Franklin's Lost Expedition? #
  • It's Thursday evening, so this must be Douglas Park. #dpcc #yvr #
  • Huh. Another non-kid performance. Boy, they sure discover how to lose the crowd quickly. #
  • Every single 3 and 4 yr old here is running around at full speed, completely ignoring the relationship advice being offered up by the band. #
  • Oh Lance. I guess everyone IS doping. #TdF #
  • .@mbbrennan Hmmm, you're right. He's essentially denying that the USADA has any jurisdiction. #
  • I really don't know what to think about this Lance Armstrong thing. Lots of smoke, but is there fire? Doesn't taint #livestrong tho' #
  • RT @kitsilano: Greenest city by 2020: Green bike lanes and green bike boxes http://t.co/aclQF9Ok #bikeYVR #
  • #FF A cool, local, cycling, funny, photographing, and AC/DC-loving grandma: @te_photographer #

  • .@CBCVancouver has quite a thing for @danmanganmusic but this "What Happens Next" documentary is extraordinary. Wow. @cbcjonsiddall #
  • And I don't say that because they all have awesome beards. @danmanganmusic @cbcjonsiddall #beardcore #
  • You know, @twitter, the ability to block people is great, but I'd really like it if RT's and other mentions of those ppl were blocked too. #
  • Follow the white rabbit. #
  • Whirlwind visit with my sister from Edmonton today. Dinner at the Boathouse on Kits beach. Nice view but one plate was a bit undercooked :( #
