• Getting up in 3 hours to do a training at Camp Wellstone. I shoulda charged ’em… #
• Err, 4 hours. Whatever. #
• Amazing how quickly one can get around at 8am on Sunday! I’m no morning person, but like getting a jump on the world. #
• How ironic – Camp Wellstone is next to a "Marina Training" seminar in the next conference room over. #
• Errr, *Marine Training.* Sorry. Anyhoo, more on Camp Wellstone: http://www.wellstone.org #
• Chilling at the Church of the Piña Colada after a hectic weekend. Ahhh. #
• Kansas *barely* pulls out a victory against Davidson… and a million brackets breathed a sigh of relief. #ncaa #basketball #

• Thanks, @baratunde. http://www.pictobrowser.com looks awesome. #flickr #
• I’m doing OK at http://apps.facebook.com/ncaabracketchallenge. #2 in both of my pools so far… #
• Getting ready to watch #UNC women play Louisville in the Sweet 16 on ESPN. Go Heels! #basketball #
• Wow, just saw an Obama ad on TV. We never get prez ads in NC! Nice to be campaigned to for a change. Hope we aren’t neglected in Nov. #
• Tomorrow I have to do a presentation for which Camp Wellstone made the PPT. Problem is, it needs work. How much time should I spend fixing it? #

• Blocking a bunch of junk tweeters like rudygiuliani32 and denniskucinich4. What is the point of that crap? #
• My thoughts are with you, @RobertP. Take care. #
• @arsepoetica I think another of our future dates should be you and me w/laptops sharing MP3s. Need to make more room on my HD. #
• Hey twits, any suggestions for how to archive all of these HTML pages at once? http://ga3.org/forusa/all-msgs.html #
• According to @msfour’s doctor, allergies were bound to happen as I’ve lived in NC for something like 28 years now. Hmm… #
• Hey #opensource nrrrds, what is your favorite alternative to Dreamwaver? Someone told me about ‘something studio’ but I can’t find/remember. #
• Hey @missrogue & @factoryjoe, say hi to my friend @smalljones (Paul Jones) – he is at the same MS thing as y’all! Enjoy the tour… #
• @agenthandy I can’t comment on that photo. Not very #net2. 🙁 #
• Amazing. I just spent nearly 90 minutes in #SecondLife and it didn’t crash a single time! #
• @agenthandy No I mean she has comments turned off except for friends. And no CC license. Boo. #
• Grrr. My org needs an IT staff! #
• Another beautiful day ruined by noisy landscaping machinery. *window closed* #
• Welcome to the land of Twits, @mathewgross! 🙂 #
• @juliakm Sending good karma to your files… #
• @blogdiva oh shit, that sucks! Take some deep breaths. Everything will get worked out. Take your time. Peace. #
• @levjoy I am worrying more & more about you. First AIPAC, now FOX… 😉 #
• @jreesnc I know! We thought Cam was kinda crazy then, but in our new neighborhood I am totally seeing his point. Ban leafblowers! #
• Fixin’ to move this operation outside. It’s 80 degrees out! #
• @smalljones Times are truly desperate if you are looking forward to DFW. Hope your travel goes as well as possible. #
• Feeling quite pleased about this whole Friday-stop-working thing. Gonna have to check that out. #
• @pearlbear it’s an obscure custom. You should try it! #GSDby5 #
• @dcm dunno, but we are frequently immobilized by food discussions as well. Thinking of Panzalella’s patio tonight… #
• The application called "SuperDuper" is, well, not. #
• @baratunde you’re right of course. Meanwhile use this: http://fabiocavassini.com.ar/SlideShowGenerator.html #flickr #
• We are going to no less than 4 parties at friends’ houses this weekend! 3 are birthdays & 1 visiting friend. Plus my mom & Camp Wellstone. #

• Wow, combo #OrangePolitics & #BlogTogether meetup went very well (in spite of Milltown’s noncooperation). Will be doing that again in 3 mo.! #
• Congrats @acarvin!!!!! #
• Kinda excited about this Photoshop Express idea. This might be how I can do graphics editing on my #Eee. https://www.photoshop.com/express/ #
• Is it just me, or is Twitterific not showing tweets from when the computer was asleep? Annoying. #
• Photoshop Express is totally hung up, nothing but a gray screen in Firefox on a Macbook Pro. Oh well. #
• Debating whether to take @pearlbear’s webinar on open source CRM or join colleagues in DiA training today. #
• Break a leg, @kanter! #
• @RobertP I think drupal might have a module that does something like that. Search for the term "sparklines." #
• Actually that sounds just like something @kanter would say, @bmadder. 😉 #
• @ntenhross I know it’s a shock. Our hero is just as rude and human as the rest of us. 😉 I appreciate her even more for being herself. #
• @ntenhross I explain them in terms of principles that build effective networks. Once you grok the principle, the tool makes sense. #
• Ugh. My laptop’s fan is so loud I can’t hear my music! 🙁 #
• Welcome back, @mistersugar! Pour some suga on us… . 😉 #
• @kanter wow. @ntenhross is truly a woman of many talents! Between the 2 of you, you are rocking MN! #
• Heh, @bpuccio. Sicily will be great. Looking forward to Saturday. 🙂 #
• @Chuckumentary are you following @ntenhross or @kanter? They are both tweeting the MN conference. #
• @mistersugar I empty trash all the time, problem is I don’t put anything in it. I make holding pens to empty the inbox sometimes. #
• I have always prided myself on not being allergic to anything, but then I got my 1st poison ivy (5 yrs ago). Now starting feel hay fever-y! #
• @ntenhross Hey from North Carolina! #
• Hang in there, @cwhittle. You will do great. I have no doubt. #
• Retweeting @abenamer: Please Digg my pro-Tibet nonprofit under cyberattack story at http://snurl.com/22s1n #
• @bpuccio I did the Tufte show a few years ago. He’s so arrogant! But it’s pretty interesting as well. #
• Getting ready to launch our final message from GetActive! Thinking about whether to track click-thru’s. I won’t be able to see the report. #
• @nerdette Yes, I know it does, but our GetActive account ends tomorrow, so I won’t be able to access the reports. 😉 #
• @dweinberger don’t forget the oil! Grease makes everything taste better. 😉 #
• @judis217 Switching to Democracy in Action. So look for lots of rants and complaints about #DIA instead of about GetActive. 😉 #
• @judis217 #GetActive is as good as any, but just too expensive for an impoverished org like mine. #DiA offers more tools & flexibility. #
• @smalljones funny that you are in WA while we are playing them in the tournament tonight! At least you might find the game on TV. #

• Oh no they di’int! http://tinyurl.com/2jlh7t (Yes, now you know my dirty secret/guilty pleasure.) #
• @blogdiva I’m with you. I don’t get the point of friendfeed. Alltop, neither. I already have an aggregator full of stuff. #
• @modochan I know. I’m hardly a fashion template, should hardly be laughing at others. It’s my bad mood medicine. #
• @Mlsif, ooh that’s actually good to know. Will try to get to Tarrytown earlier next time. #
• Gah! Must… get… Axl… Rose… out… of… head! #

• @RobertP I think that link should be http://bluenc.com/were-on. (with the period). First online gubernatorial debate in NC history! #

• @dbarger The Hustle was the most popular line dance at my summer camp in the early 80’s. I still know all the steps. #

• Congrats @RoseVines for getting Sister @HelenPrejean to start Twittering! #
• @bpuccio I ate that junk all the time as a kid! It was the actually the least disgusting item in the vending machine at the local YMCA. #
• Facebook won’t let me place an ad with the title "Get yr local politics on" because it’s not grammatically correct. ‘Scuse me! #
• @ggreeneva touché! 😀 #
• Hey ev’rybody, don’t forget local blogger meetup & OrangePolitics happy hour is today at 6pm at Milltown. #

• Whew! Just got off an intense 112-minute conversation with my coworker. We have issues. But we have some good ideas too. 🙂 #

• @mistersugar interesting analogy. Swamps are fertile places! #
• @baratunde now you tell me! 😉 We should have used #Zoho instead of #Google for our NP intranet stuff. Thanks for the tip. #nptech #
• New productivity idea: schedule no appts after 4pm, spend 1 hr replying & dealing w/ things that have come up that day. Done by 5? #gsd #

• Setting up Alex King’s Twitter Tools to digest my tweets and barf them out on to my blog. http://alexking.org/projects/wordpress #

• Just saw a guy riding in the street in his wheelchair – that’s how much the sidewalk on Umstead Drive (near us) sucks. #orangepolitics #
• Waiting @ the so-called Genius Bar again… #apple #
• Good thing I brought some supplies, I’m in for another long wait. appointments are a joke. #apple #
• I have a love/hate relationship w/ #opensource software. At #PenguinDay I was feeling the love. With my #MythTV, more of the other thing. #

• Finally did my ballot in the #NetSquared Mashup Challenge. You have 2 more hours to vote! http://www.netsquared.org #
