MakerDino Wink at the Moon this evening in memory of Neil Armstrong. Godspeed Neil. #neilarmstrong
Been wondering why my house was so hot today. Apparently I bumped the thermostat. The heater was on, set to 87°F! (Happy Labor Day)
tastapod OH: I’m going to give my manager 3 copies of Mythical Man-Month and tell him it’s so he can read it in 1/3 the time.
Mrs Rockhopper is now 76 grams lighter!
Q: What network protocol do they use in Australia? A: 9^dI #nerdjoke
So proud of D2. She conquered her personal fear, and finally leapt off of the high dive. How How!
They screamed. They slept. They woke. They screamed again. All the while, I drove and drove. How How!
At camp: dodge ball game with maybe 150 per side. Felt like a mix between WW1 battle and a popcorn popper!
D2 is burning through her “word quota” at an alarming rate.
@billfarrow YOU can try them if you want… I’ll throw in some pulled dandelions and grass clippings, too.
A very important decision - which stuffed animals should we take with us on our camping trip? pic.twitter.com/sIm5zuDK
It’s “dad day” at the elementary school bus stop.
Pullin’ shrooms… the whole neighborhood got invaded by fungi overnight.
This was definitely not a case of kids being late for the bus. It was a very early bus. — Wait, it’s coming back for more!
D1 wears mis-matched socks.
@marsroverdriver or DM me your email address
@marsroverdriver follow me, i’ll DM you details, we’ll loosely stay in touch
@marsroverdriver Still curious if you’re interested in speaking at Linux user group in Raleigh NC. Rob Rousseau said you might be.
Had a dream - Asked Siri something, and got a “live” response! Fare thee well, digital spirit!
@AlanPorter What a lovely girl. Two is wonderful, enjoy every minute of it.

Weekend project - Arduino watches garage door and light, sends me text msg when door opens/closes. Also warns when door left open at night.
Wondering where I might find a reed switch… maybe a window/door alarm sensor… or, take apart an ipad?
ajkuftic Dear IT Managers. Your staff does not need to be on site to patch servers. NASA just patched Curiosity on Mars. ON. MARS.
@444ppenguinCP Thanks for the FF, but I’m not THAT Rockhopper!
Magnets are cool.
Haven’t seen our hermit crabs in several days, so we checked on ‘em. They’d dug tunnels. Blink had molted, Barney was just being a *hermit*.
Two zerks are better than one!
Hufflepuff ?? !!
D1 is excited… it’s “sorting day” at school… they get selected into four houses, just like in Harry Potter. She’s hoping for Ravenclaw.
D2 tried to conceal her lost tooth… for an EXPERIMENT! Her toothless grin gave her away.
A year after our dog Maggie passed away, we finally buried her ashes in our yard.

@llorenzin Crap… that tweet pushed me over my mental stack size… memory has now been corrupted.
Running very close to my personal mental saturation level this week.
So proud to be an Earth human at this time!
Pillownaut Has anyone realized that NASA TV will be showing Curiosity landing on Mars with less of a time delay than NBC shows the Olympics? #Mars #MSL

@jbroome I take a ticket with an easy-to-remember number from the middle of the pad.
I like the way the school bus driver pulls out into the T intersection diagonally to “own the whole road” while the kids get on. #safety
No sign of the hermit crabs in their cage, so we combed through the sand, found them buried deep down. Now we’re just messin’ with them!
NC540 changes from being a “freeway” to a toll road today. Driving home a different way out of spite.
