  • If you were cycling from Vancouver to Strawberry Hill, how would you go? Alex Fraser Bridge? Then up Nordel? (ugh) #

  • … and @LeftCoastMama goes to bed at 9pm, trying to get a jump on Q who has woken twice already with his poor infant-cold. Another sofa nt! #
  • Due to the magic of timeshifting cable channels, I'm discovering that Craig Ferguson makes a pretty good late-night talk show host. #
  • Mind you, it could just be that I'm over-tired and anything would sound good… Nope, Letterman still sounds past his expiry date. #
  • Boy, people on the east coast must feel pretty cheated. No timeshifting for them! Or, rather they can watch late-night as early-morning. #
  • Rick Mercer (@rickmercer) has a better read on the Canadian electorate than ANY of our political parties http://bit.ly/S8KBP #cdnpoli #
  • Mandatory quiet hour for whole family, brought on by colds and general sleep deprivation. We might survive the day yet. #
  • Aidan has utmost trust in adults. Today he latched on to @smuttysteff and @cognoscento — literally. Apparently good judge of character too! #

  • And now while the childfree adults go and do adult things, it's time for us poor parents to say Good Night and Good Luck. #
  • Picasa 3.5 does face recognition. 3 days chugging along, it's processed 25% of our pics. Found 2600 of Aidan. That's a lot of soul to lose! #

  • It's not that there aren't big issues out there: isotopes, abandoning citizens, economy. But why haven't #NDP + #LPC been talking them up? #
  • Thinking about buying a new TV. "Protection Plan" a good idea or no? #
  • Really? Footer on @cbcnewsbc story notes "Comments on this story are pre-moderated" What does that mean? Moderated before they are made? #
  • .@DanGoodchild Well, yes, I understand. But that's just moderated, not *pre-moderated*. #GrammarIsImportantToo #
  • Keith Martin explains how R2D2 and Chewbacca are the real powers in the Rebellion http://bit.ly/Zf52O #StarWars [via @gregeh] #

  • Wow. Biggest fleet in the world is sitting idle off the coast of Singapore. Pic: http://bit.ly/DEfK9 Article: http://bit.ly/12CDax #
  • How's *that* for professional journalism? TMZ obtains audio of Pres Obama calling Kanye West a "jackass" http://bit.ly/3u5TQ7 #
  • #NDP to support Cons "until EI bill passes". O rly? Well, that pretty much guarantees it won't ever pass, huh? #cdnpoli #
  • The "deputy chief of protocol" greeted @pmharper at the WH today. Doesn't seem like Obama has much respect for #Harper. #
  • Wait, maybe Obama was just in the men's room #HarperSnubbed #PissingMatch #
  • .@stephen_taylor @bgrice Name calling? Seriously? And why is it again that the Canadian public has political disdain? #roft #lpc #
  • RT @karlwoll: Trail descents put Grouse hikers in peril http://ow.ly/pIn4 #

  • Operation HDTV has begun. First step, de-SDTV, demolish old media unit. #
  • Phase 1 complete. Phase 2 commencing: build new entertainment unit. Note: all this being done w/o beer or chocolate. Yes, we're brave. #
  • That was the quickest assemble-it-yourself job we've ever done. Phase 3: TV #
  • OK, TV's up and preliminary setup complete. Now to the 4th and final phase, rewiring all the electronics back together. #

  • RT @lokl: Aarrr, shiver me timbers, less than 15 hours until Talk Like A Pirate Day! #
  • I don't do #FF. But if I were to, I'd have to recommend @AnnDouglas (politico/author) + alter-ego @MotherOfAll (author/parent). She rocks! #
  • Mind you, I also told @tjrossignol that if I ever did #FF, I'd recommend her too. And I do (YVR/mom/marketing/sarcasm) #
  • RT @Stv: Anyone out there seen this yet? http://bit.ly/4fmGwl Corner of 5th & Yukon. Is this a new revenue-model for the city? #

  • Tomorrow is the first day of classes at UBC. The bike route will be crammed with doe-eyed cyclists, 80% of whom won't be riding next week #
  • I'm surprised that UBCTrek doesn't do more to try to retain those newbies. I mean they've made the effort, they need a push to stick with it #
  • Speaking of which, are you one of the poor people who haven't upgraded your wp.org blog? http://bit.ly/14bzdM Oh, n/m you're probably hooped #

  • ./ quote: "Jordan was verbose. He made Tolstoy look parsimonious. A word used a couple times in WoT novels, by the way." Too true. #
  • A was a complete snot yesterday, angel today. Parents: "This too will pass" Kids: "Keep 'em guessing" Can't wait until teen years. Le sigh. #
  • Jeeze! @LeftCoastMama opened our balcony door only to be greeted by a blast of chimney smoke. WTF YVR? It's 15 C, not the dead of winter! #
  • Lighter than normal car and bike traffic to UBC today, parking lots still have lots of space. Is everyone taking transit? #
  • RT @whatlolawants @TELUS announces acquisition of Black's: http://ow.ly/ouSq [Uh, strange. What happened to "Black's is photography"?] #
  • .@Tweetdeck, could you suck less when Facebook is having problems? Constantly dismissing the login window makes me stabby. #
  • Pounding my head against Windows XP's broken user-security implemention. How can file in "All Users" dir not be world-writable by default? #
  • In anticipation of Apple Day tomorrow (both Apple Corps and Apple Inc) I'm listening to The Beatles "1". #
  • Re-evaluating getting Beatles Rock Band tomorrow. Those are going to be some tough vocals (too high for me!) #
  • More cowbell! #
  • Cake. #
  • RE: Your Brains by @JonathanCoulton on RB has taught me I need more supple wrists. Also we’re not unreasonable no one’s gonna eat your eyes #
  • I see this FourSquare thing is going to be just as annoying as the SpyMaster thing. Adds no value to my stream. Let the unfollowing begin! #
  • Wow, new #Tweetdeck. I might never visit FB again. #
  • Does anyone know of an IRC channel for the Apple event today? #
  • Saw total of 3 other cyclists heading into UBC today. Hey newbies! If you don't ride in the rain, you won't ride at all. #YVRBikeCommuters #
  • No one came up with an IRC channel for me, but the best live blog for the Apple Rock and Roll event seems to be at gdgt http://is.gd/35cKi #
  • Also, if you follow @macrumors they're live-tweeting the event #
  • RT @kevleviathan: I'm shocked they didn't add at least a still camera to the iPod Touch. [Ditto. And disappointed.] #
  • Well, I think the story of the day will be Apple Corps and not Apple Inc after all. #
  • Ugh. @News1130 'Breaking Alert' that a SFU staffer has 'suspected' swine flu. Srsly? It's a MILD flu that lots of ppl will get. #DontPanic #
  • Oh my. LOLPython http://bit.ly/A3nlG #python #
  • Somebody just "discovered" a geocoin that I have activated but never placed. Archived the log, but WTH? #geocaching #
  • Yay for Dependency Walker. Boo for WinSxS and DLL hell. I wasted a good part of today hunting down an errant dll. #ThanksBill #
  • The Beatles Rock Band? Awesome. It's easy to forget just how timeless some of those songs are. The game helps you *live* the songs. #
  • Quinlan has been awake since 4:30. I'm beat, knackered, exhausted. Gonna be a productive day at work, I'm sure. #
  • Hey, look! I'm writing for @dadcamp http://bit.ly/zNjIH #

  • RT @davidakin Flaherty updates budget. Was $50.2B deficit this year, now $55.9B. Next year, was $29.8B, now $45.3B [Buy the man new darts!] #
  • Wow, most politicos seem upset at Harper and Flaherty being off by $6B this year. What about being off by 50% ($15B) NEXT year? #
  • RT @danudey: Turned off tweeting from foursquare. Let's not be a dick. [OK, the rest of you, take note.] #

  • Watch out, I think they're up to something … #

  • Hey evening West Coast Tweeps, did you catch my debut on DadCamp? http://bit.ly/V6XLQ #
  • And back to Liverpool with our favourite mop-tops…. #BeatlesRockBand #
  • The Liberals' rejection of a left-centre coalition is disappointing, disheartening, and contrary to the good of the country. #lpc #elxn41 #
  • With such an outright rejection of a coalition in #elxn41 the #lpc shows they are not interested in the good of the country, just power. #
  • With more than 60% of the country voting left-centre, why are we letting a right-wing party ruin our country, our ideals, our reputation? #
  • When @hedyfry comes to ask for my vote again this year, I will want to know why her party refuses to act in concern with like-minded parties #
  • Dammit, inside cat was locked outside on our balcony all night long. Explains why other cat was up and upset all night. #
  • Might explain both boys up at 4:30 too. #EveryoneNeedsMoreSleep #
  • .@DanGoodchild I'm a typical left-centre undecided. If I sound like a Con, perhaps the #lpc isn't listening closely enough? #elxn41 #
  • My #UnfollowFriday #FourSquare purge has begun! Buh-bye, thanks for the pollution! #
  • RT @jeffbachman: Biked into work for the first time ever. I need to do this way more often. [Welcome to the cult! Secret passwd on its way!] #
  • .@BobSongs In fact, I'd say that the #lpc seems to have lost sight of the fact that's its about the people not the party. #elxn41 #cdnpoli #
  • Look #lpc. If you say "Harper = bad" *and* "coalition=never" then you're being inconsistent. #elxn41 #canpoli #

  • Getting stuff together for my Cyclebetes ride tomorrow — Hope to Vancouver. I'll be tweeting what I can. Join us at Lumberman's Arch 3pm? #
  • 100 km in, now in Maple Ridge. Slow leak in frt tire. Pace slowing #
  • At water stop, off 1oo km, GPS reads 115. Had another flat, way behind now #
  • Taking break in PoCo park. Much needed shade. 35 km to go. #
  • Apparently this is the park for the PoCo homeless. I'm the only one here that hasn't taken a whiz on a tree. Yet. #
  • Burnaby, what's up with all the hills? Cripes #
  • Still in Burnaby, stopped for cold water and breather. Doesn't look like Stanley Park until 5pm #
  • Wiped out going around a corner due to damn leaky frt tire. #
  • Road rash and bruises from crash. Drive train out of wack. Limped to Vancouver, calling it a day. #
  • Good news is that officially did Hope to Vancouver, too bad wasn't right to Stanley Park #
  • Thanks everyone for the encouragement and concern! I'm ok #
  • Whew long hot day. Between the flat tires, the road rash, and the heat exhaustion, you'd think I'd be cranky. But I *love* being on my bike! #
  • Congratulations to all the @ac_cyclebetes riders on a great ride today! Can't wait until next year. Hopefully it'll be a titch cooler :) #
  • RT @NathanFillion: And the Emmy goes to… http://yfrog.com/0rlyej [Congrats @NathanFillion @FeliciaDay @drhorrible et al!] #
  • Damn Obama looks like he has *fun* at his rallies. Why don't our politicos? #
  • You'd think with all the energy I expended today that I'd be dead to the world right now. Well, I'd think at least. And yet, here we are o_o #
  • You know, Bach *really* understood music. And someone understands Bach: http://bit.ly/PbKkO #

  • Much can be learned from the Zen of 4 yr olds: Aidan loves playing the "Try Again" card game at Safeway — he always wins! #

  • No matter what 'altercation', a normal person doesn't kill a cyclist by running him into a mail box & trees off the wrong side of the road! #
