Lovely… for some reason, I can not type a lowercase C in Outlook this morning. Uppercase C is OK. #fail Time for creative wordsmithing.
@AmyInRaleigh uhm… kgsr.com/now/ ??
It’s unauthorized user appreciation day. Kicked one freeloader off of my VPN, now deleting 1800+ fake users from a wiki.
Oops, rented the wrong movie.
Garage sale — Name your own price! — Usted puede decidir el precio!
Neighborhood-wide garage sale this weekend. Spent the night loading old junk into the garage. Please, somebody take it!
@emmarockin And it’s still got a few good hours left in it!
Pondering the difference between “importance” and “priority”. High-importance long-term task frequently preempted by time-sensitive stuff.
@MitchThedude1 Writeup at http://t.co/xtDAkJIYKO , code at https://t.co/IZqkwsd7ye . Let me know how it goes.
I may need a bigger teacup for all of these tempests.

Mistaken identity. I got an email notification for my own blog post. At first glance, I thought it was from my evil twin, @alanjporter!
Guy at $WORK suggested that we print our Gantt charts on a Möbius strip. Brilliant!
@0xabad1dea FAA regs: 500’ for planes, 1000’ over cities, helecopters can fly lower. http://t.co/ZyR1lRA517 Doubt? Ask local ATC to look.
@0xabad1dea See who it is! Snap a photo of its tail number and look it up in the FAA database. Google for FAA aircraft registration.

Chasing ghosts…
One of my servers emailed me this morning, told me that it had rebooted and many files had changed. Now to find out why.
Now is not the time to be making up the rules as we go. Now is precisely the time to follow the rules we already have. #USA
Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra!
Throwing away old software CDs.
It looks like our brand new roof will get its first stress test tonight. pic.twitter.com/1RJ7vya0fN
Rumors spreading around my office that I am an IPSEC expert.
If you were going to show someone ONE classic Star Trek movie, and ONE ST:TNG movie, which would you choose?
What really scares me is not terrorists… what scares me is how we react to terrorism.
I certainly understand the practical reason behind the Boston lock-down, but I have to question its legality… even in Boston.
I really like @Namecheap’s simple UI and no-nonsense presentation, but disappointed to see their payment site has XSS on it.

Today, I learned that 27 x 37 = 999. Nice. 27 is a cube, and 37 is prime, and they both end in 7. And 999 is just a cool number. #numbers
I’m just looking for an honest week’s pay for an honest day’s work.
@jordansissel What is “fex /2” ?
Maybe we ordered too much mulch. But now our entire street now has matching natural areas! :-D
Heard in our car today: “it’s apparent, your parent is parroting a parody of a parody!”
If anyone would like to help us spread this mountain of mulch, we’ll waive the normal admission fee today! pic.twitter.com/dnbYLjPhq6
Mowing the grass with noise-canceling headphones and a few episodes of the NPR @planetmoney podcast. :-)
@nivex Drat!
My best friend at work is leaving… again. (From 2011: https://t.co/s6uyEttYLx)
Entire work group was waiting in my cube when I got in this AM, to take a group photo! (Why so early? We’re meeting again later for lunch!)
It sounds like a herd of bison are running on our roof — roofers are tearing off the old shingles.
Taxes: done, done and done!
My “Three Wishes For A Meaningful Life” was the 274th most popular Lifestyle app in Sri Lanka last week. - sentosa.us/apps/wishes/
Spent all weekend in the 17th century, at Colonial Williamsburg. Didn’t seem right to tweet about it at the time. Good fun, though.
Learning about my Mac by breaking it and then fixing it again. #hibernate
Spending the weekend at a time share condo. Oops, another family was assigned to the same unit! Nice first impression!
Over-zealous maintenance crew at the VA Welcome Center has labeled every bathroom stall, sink and hand dryer with large letters & numbers.
D2 just took over my bed, and she is sawing some serious logs.
Just now noticed that my VOIP service was set to “do not disturb” between 11pm and 6am… for a year or more? I do sleep well. :-)
Sweet potato tots. :-D
Just like adding “in bed” to a fortune cookie, CEO’s comments make more sense if you add “for me” to the end.
Oh yeah, I forgot it was stay-off-the-internet day.
I just spent a half-day going WAY down the wrong debugging path.
@linuxjournal Don’t stress out over it, we still have plenty of back-issues to tide us over. Was just wondering if it was me or everyone.
@linuxjournal : D’oh! I can’t download the new April issue, I get “forbidden” and “additionally, a 404”.
