  • Avian flu was called ‘bird flu’. Why is ‘swine flu’ not being called ‘porcine flu’ or ‘pig flu’?!? #
  • Who names these things anyway? How about going for alliteration: Poor porker predicament. Adverse avian affliction. Mad moo menace. #

  • Today is Jaunty Jackalope day! No, seriously. Ubuntu 9.04 is released. We’re in yr internets, clogging yr tubez. #
  • Wow, Jenn McGinn, if you can’t answer the softball questions that Rick is throwing at you, it doesn’t instill much confidence. #bcvotes09 #
  • Judge rules that *even* @pmharper cannot simply abandon Canadian citizens to torture and abuse (http://bit.ly/13jXzQ ) (via @noncarborundum) #
  • I wonder if this will make @pmharper realize that THERE ARE NO SECOND CLASS CITIZENS. Even though his actions show he doesn’t believe it. #
  • RT @FakeSteveHarper: I didn’t take the fed. courts srsly re Cadman, Mulroney, Adgate or the Alberta Duck Boondoggle so why start with Khadr? #
  • I continue to maintain that @FakeSteveHarper isn’t. #
  • And yes, you *can* continue to maintain. Just as you can stop maintaining. Clearly if you’ve stopped, it’s not maintaining, but … whatever #
  • Upgraded my workstation to Jaunty Jackalope. A few stumbles with sounds and network manager, but seems solid now! #ubuntu #
  • OK, these notifications popping up in the middle of my dual-monitor setup are just plain annoying. No way to change location?!? #ubuntu #
  • Wow, the Ubuntu Netbook Remix torrent downloaded in about 10 minutes! Grab it here: http://bit.ly/6tEkj #ubuntu #unr #
  • Success! Jaunty Jackalope now installed on my Eee 901. Now to see if the suspend/resume works yet… #ubuntu #unr #
  • Hooray! Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04 installed to Eee 901’s SD card with working wireless, sound *and* suspend/hibernate. #ubuntu #unr #

  • Lego Rock Band? I don’t understand. http://tinyurl.com/cgtxzz #
  • Is it Monday? It feels like a Monday. #
  • First listen through the new Depeche Mode “Sounds of the Universe”. Classic DM sound, but only a few good tracks: 7/10. #
  • RT @chadpederson Amazingly out of touch “Most British Columbians don’t understand FB as a social networking tool.” – Jeff Fox, NDP President #
  • Last tweet was from a very partisan source, but if true, reflects an awfully behind-the-times political campaign #
  • Fixed that for you @cognoscento: As the weather warms, the minds of young men shift to thoughts of young women and unzip-linings. #
  • Awesome, BC NDP campaign is completely out of touch: http://is.gd/tKK2 “Most in BC can’t grasp FB” (thanks for link @chadpederson) #
  • http://twitpic.com/3qrtl – Passive-aggressive in Vancouver #
  • http://twitpic.com/3qrtl – This was pinned to our condo complex’s garage door by some irate neighbour (not me!) #
  • This will be interesting. Luongo’s hurt? #canucks #
  • The soundtrack to tonight’s #Canucks game is @CynicalDad’s Namless Twitter Radio Show! Check it out. #
  • I love when @badastronomer takes an amazing astronomy pic and explains it for the rest of us http://is.gd/tNqy #
  • As usual, it’s the bad penalties that will do in the #canucks. Surprisingly we can’t blame it on Sundin tonight. #
  • SWEEP! #canucks #
