Enjoying brews and wine at the Gingerman w/ @traumanursejade, my mom, and @jmeek http://twitpic.com/ftgg #

@timothompson Pretty much across the board. # Explaining to my mom that Elton John really wanted Tony Danza to hold him closer. # Gonna go suit shopping today to replace mine. Anyone have any recommendations for good, affordable stores in Austin? # Ended up getting measured to have a suit custom made for me. 3-button, [...]

I’ve been seeing the news that Obama bought 30-mins of primetime ad airtime. It JUST sunk in that we’re talking MINUTES, not seconds. Wow! # I remember when Perot did the same in ’92. All charts and whiteboard explanations. Barely politically aware at age 9, I wanted Simpsons … # @michellegreer I’ll be there at [...]

Heading to work unusually early to finish a client-deliverable by 11am. # found TWO emails from Google (an alert I’d created and Google Groups notice) in my spam folder. Makes me seriously question their efficacy. # re: previous tweet: this is my Gmail account. We take it for granted that all those emails really are [...]

Missing the debate as I ride the bus home, but loving the varied play-by-play from those I follow. #debate08 # Wow. Just wow. Nebraska parents abandoning teens. http://cnn.com/2008/US/10/08/nebraska.safe.haven/ # hunkering down and ordering pizza for a late night at the office. # Really disappointed that I’m gonna miss Refresh Austin for a second month, esp.

They will f*ck you up. # Retweet @BaldMan: “six million questions have been submitted via the Internet to be asked” at tonight’s presidential debate”. Whoa http … # Trying to order LCD [...]

Looking forward to a more productive week than last. # OH: Fetal head-bopping. # @rickbenavidez Bloomberg is probably the best source for unparalleled financial coverage; U.S. and International. Check out their podcasts. # @marlaerwin “protect investors”? See http://tinyurl.com/ngvq2 #

Bought my father an inexpensive laptop. It’s amazing how much you can get for a good price now. # Wow. What a Texans meltdown. Rosenfels had 3 turnovers in 3 posessions? I think he should still start. http://twitpic.com/ero9 #

Press any key to boot from CD… # formatting hard drives and reinstalling WinXP on two machines. Ah, the joy of viruses. Why not something other than XP? They’re not mine. # drinking a new bourbon whiskey tonight, Elijah Craig http://tinyurl.com/zhjun # Giving up on PC restoration for the night. Heading to Canada, aka N. [...]

Palin winked at me!!! # Way to go, Joe! # Ok, Palin, “say it ain’t so, Jo” is a good zinger. 1 point. # The Palin Wink – http://www.palinwink.com/ # @marlaerwin We really do live in web bubbles and it’s hard to always keep that in mind. Not only tech stuff, but even in terms [...]
