  • http://is.gd/2gMA Biden asks “Did you hear McCain or Palin even say the words ‘middle class’ once at the RNC?” Biden is mad :P #

  • @BryanPerson glad to see the #RedSox doing well, and the #Yankees sucking :) #
  • there is something really nice about a grey overcast Saturday/Sunday … I guess it makes doing homework slightly easier (though not much) #
  • bagel/coffee run before I seriously dig into a day’s worth of homework. #
  • homework + coffee = Saturday (ok, and most of Sunday) #
  • http://is.gd/2hZA long sync/backup times with your iPhone/Touch? Got a USB hub? That could be the problem. Ditch the hub, plugin directly #

  • Just saw the new Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld commercial for Windows Vista. Funny, but they didn’t really make it obvious what they wer … #
  • http://is.gd/2epg Obama brings in $10 million afte Palin’s idiotic speech last night. Oops, that plan may have back fired… #
  • http://is.gd/2eqZ Obama to send out his female “minions” to counter Palin’s perceived pull for women voters. #
  • @davehuston Lieberman did give $100,000 to the Democratic Party last month alone though. That’s…um…gotta mean something right? :P #
  • @davehuston you’d be trashed in under 15 minutes. #
  • @davehuston true, but it *could* have gone to the Republicans if he was a complete douche bag. He’s just a 85% douche bag. #
  • @steelopus have they actually figured out how to theme Flock yet? It has the ugliest default theme known to man, but it *is* a great browser #
  • a little more of the football game and then a hot (phone) date. #
  • @steelopus and you’re a Mac user? *gasp* :P #
  • Cindy McCain scares the crap out of me. There. I said it. #
  • @bangbang023 you’re indifferent :P I agree, to a point. He’s still just a politician, but people want to believe in what he’s selling (hope) #

  • dear god, what a Friday. just shoot me now. #
  • @chrisriedinger definitely worth the look when you get home. It’s an incredible idea, and it’s very well done. #
  • Lunch because I have to - not because I have time and not because I’m hungry. #
  • @ManFmNantucket the diffence? features/extensions… Chrome has the absolute bare minimum features. Firefox is a swiss army knife. #
  • @ManFmNantucket you can avoid the bloat with Firefox, just don’t install any extensions. Bloat = features sometimes too. #
  • @ManFmNantucket it’s a hard balance to offer the features that users want, but not be perceived as “bloated” …it’s a balancing act. #
  • I’m kind of just tired of life… #
  • Killing some time before meeting my mother for an early dinner. #
