@leahjones You should be ok if you force yourself to follow the new time pattern for a day or two. It worked when I went to Norway. Enjoy! #
Wow…Obama had a huge night. He wins Washington, Nebraska, and Louisiana. Excellent news! #
Anyone else annoyed by the Democrat’s superdelegates crap? Obama is owning Hillary in pledged delegates, but far behind in superdelegates #
Superdelegates seem remarkably similar to the "smoking men" who get to decide what is best for our country. Um no, the people = power. #
today is the parade of reading. Hopefully I’ll have time for an afternoon movie #
@Mobasoft I like NOD32, but recently I moved over to AVG (because it’s free and offers almost the same detection rate) #
Wow, what a great Sunday to say in the house. It’s cold, super windy, and snowing. Time to read in front of the fire! #
I’ve come to the realization that if it’s Hillary/McCain – McCain will win, but if it’s Obama/McCain – Obama will win #
@CurtMonash I hope you’re right, but I have a feel that too many men would not vote for Hillary no matter what. #
Yes I am a poor college student, and yes I am donating as much as I can reasonably afford to Obama. #
doing my taxes, boy this sure it fun. #
I love how I can open MS’s own XPS file format. WTF? The XPS viewer is supposed to be included in Vista, and yet this is failing at life. #
@Br3ndaBot My sarcasm didn’t come across. I was actually having problems with it. I had to download the XPS essentials pack to get it workin #

Twhirl seems to be broken? Or maybe it’s just me …It won’t grab any tweets right now. #
watching the end of the Celtics game …hell of a game so far, though a little sloppy. #
coffee, homework, and the usual weekend stuff. #
http://snurl.com/1zbny Jon Stewart’s farewell to Mitt Romney: "F*ck you!" lol…thank god for the Daily Show. #
@leahjones Glad you liked it. I had to share …I thougt it was too funny not to share. #
http://tweetstats.com/ <– handy site for creating Twitter stats (which are essentially useless, but pretty) #
flying through some homework. perhaps running a few errands this afternoon. #
i’d be totally lost without my to do list and calendar …*hugs gCal and RTM* #
@chrisbrogan great post. Gotcha with a Digg as well. #
pciking up a lotto ticket (for class I swear), and grabbing some lunch. #
Listening to some Michael Buble, reading some William Paley #
Finally got the custom themes working again on Vista SP1 #
thinking about adding another 1GB to my Mini …2GB very different than 1GB on a 1.6Ghz Core Duo Mini? #
@Mobasoft It doesn’t seem to happen very often, basically only when I use Parellels (which isn’t very often). Thanks for the info. #
@Mobasoft I mean, I could always just get an iMac instead 😛 #
@Mobasoft Here’s another question – Do I need a software firewall if I am behind a router? (which basically has a hardware firewall, right?) #
@Mobasoft That’s what I have always thought as well, but I thought I should at least ask 😛 #
my dog is demanding attention…off for a dog walk #

eating pizza and watching a little tv. #
Sipping some wine, getting ready for Lost. #
getting Lost 🙂 and thinking about an early bed time this evening. #
@t how did you create the stars? #
http://live.yahoo.com/xxdesmus …Yahoo’s servers are currently freaking out. #
never understand why people want to watch normal people’s "life casts" …I mean, I live a very boring life, why would you want to watch it? #
http://snurl.com/1z8fg How will you spend your $600 check? What the hell? They think that’ll fix this crap economy? Uh, pretty unlikely. #
bedtime sounds nice. #
@StarrGazr Any pros/cons to using Twhirl instead of Snitter? #
@StarrGazr If the great StaffGazr commands it then it must be true. 😛 I’ll give it a try, I am not in love with Snitter at this point. #
consider me impressed. I’ll give it a shot for a few days. #
inline following is very nice, but 1 thing I do like about Snitter is the customizable CSS. I am definitely a tweaker. #
1 hour 15 minutes and 515 people sharing tonight’s episode of Lost …that is quite impressive. #
@tomsaxton Thanks for the correction. Either way, I was looking for an excuse not to feel bad about not being able to afford one. #
@tomsaxton Those are good excuses. That works. 🙂 #
Firefox 2.0.0.12 is out today (actually yesterday). Hit the "check for upgrade" link… #
off to class this morning, then post office and various other errands this afternoon. #
@StarrGazr You’re definitely right. I like Twhirl. Thanks for the suggestion 🙂 #
SPB Mobile Shell fails at life. That’s the app that was causing my Treo to freak out. …and uninstalled. #
http://snurl.com/1zakc Rebates: What you need to know …read up if you live in the US. #
Twhirl seems to be mad at me …it freaks out when I try to send a Tweet (even though the Tweet goes through). #

Duke at North Carolina tonight…should be a great game (as usual) #
Never knew you could order flowers on Amazon…that’s kinda cool/weird #
still absolutely exhausted this morning…I guess I didn’t sleep well. #
Clemens could be in a world of trouble if this "needle with his DNA" turns out to be real. #
1 hour to go 10 miles…ah that was a little annoying. #
Me: "Yeah, that almost doesn’t suck". Friend: "great compliment" #
Technology needs to do a better job showing it’s practical use to "normal" people. Otherwise they don’t get it. #
Take the Zune commercials – they are terrible because they don’t tell you about the product. The iPhone commercials are brilliant/practical. #
dude, I hate the "insert" button. no one actually uses it on purpose. #
Where is my camera when I need it? Very cool photo out of my window right now. *sigh* #
just about to endure the evening commute. #
FYI people – the Vista SP1 RTM leak on Pirate Bay is not legit. It was digitally signed by MS on Jan 19th…it didn’t RTM until Feb 4th #
This "RTM" leak must be a hex edited copy of the SP1 RC2 #
http://snurl.com/1z81m Apparently Vista SP1 RC2 = SP1 RTM …cool. So I’ve had this for a few weeks now. #

this is a going to be a busy/exciting night…Cali doesn’t close until 10pm (EST) #
anyone have a good news site with a simple to view map for tonight? Cnn’s page is a mess, MSNBC is a mess, etc #
@rycaut WashingtonPost.com is showing Obama with 65% (who knows if that’s accurate yet) #
@Matthom What do you think of the new Jack Johnson album? I think it’ll grow on me. I like it so far. #
too tired to wait for Cali to figure life out. g’night all. #
windy, slushy, and icy. These are the things that make the morning commute interesting. #
enjoying the gray day. I’ll be thrilled when it’s 4pm. #
meat loaf really has an unappealing name doesn’t it? that’s too bad because it’s so yummy #
Here’s something that bugs me
why "should" it be God? I go out of my way to write god, and it annoys people. #
A friend just felt the need to tell me how nice and sunny his weather was today. Didn’t help my angst. #
This is so me: "INFJs prefer to quietly exert their influence." (just took a personality test for class) #
http://tinyurl.com/34n6fo 50 Cent hates Paris Hilton too #
Digsby (for Win) is a very promising IM app …think Adium, but for Windows. It’s using Webkit as well, eventually compat with Adium themes #
going to watch American Gangster. We’ll see if it’s as good as everyone said. #
it’s raining like a monkey, and it’s that cold rain/slush stuff. great night for a fire me thinks. #

reading about Carl Jung. Should be a fun evening. #
http://snurl.com/1yzo7 Wow, Ars is definitely a bit critical of the MacBook Air (not surprising) #
I think tomorrow will be pink dress shirt day. #
@chrisbrogan Sometimes it’s intentional. It’s that whole "don’t divulge personal info online when there isn’t a good reason to." #
Anyone see the 72 Dolphins Reebok commercial? Hilarious. They get a football from the Giants saying "we thought you’d like this". #
Goodmorning Twitter-land. 50 already, high of 57 today….so nice 🙂 so abnormal for us. #
*nudge* Get out and vote today! Please. *nudge* #
That sucks – the Pepsi/Amazon song giveaway is not 1 for 1 like the iTunes giveaway was. It’s actually 5 for 1 song. That’s not cool. #
every morning my dog tries to climb in the shower. ya think he likes water? #
Jack Johnson has a brand new cd out. Considering me very excited! 🙂 #
Interesting, you can run Firefox from a network drive. Sure it’s a little bit slow, but it certainly works. #
@Matthom Let me know what you think of it, will ya? I won’t be able to buy the album until this evening. (at work) #
talk about job security – things explode when I leave the office (and then are waiting for me to return). #
sweet, my office un-blocked Twitter. #
Forgot my good headphones at home so I am stuck using the horrible standard iPod headphones. My ears are not happy with me. #
@zeldman what a great metaphor! 😛 I feel your pain (with Verizon). #
tiptoeing around telling this customer that she messed up her own database…and then trying to undo what she did. #
being non-committal is a great way to go…you’re almost never wrong. #
@mashable Obama. Can’t fit the full explanation in a Tweet. #
I just ate my first blue M&M ever. Surprisingly enough it doesn’t taste any different than the others. #
well, maybe a little different. #
@missrogue I hear ya. I hadn’t been single for nearly 7 years. Now I’ve been single for 1 yr. I kinda like it. (for now) #
I wish there was a simple way of comparing everything in 2 dBs. Does A = B? If yes – cool. If No – what is different. Would make life easier #
http://tinyurl.com/25vkdc Handy CNN page for all the today’s results. #
tired, and definitely ready for it to be 6pm. not too bad on homework this evening neither which is good news. #
@laughingsquid Do you use the WP Auto Upgrade plugin? I’ve been hesitant to try it out so far. #
@nicoleanne I feel your pain. Too many times my boss has called me with "Uh…why did I call you again?" #
I miss leaving work in the daylight …leaving in the dark is so miserable, but it is still 50 outside 🙂 #
Picking up dinner. My dog is going to be so not happy with me. #

2008 Superbowl Commercials

Super Bowl Commercials 2008

Everyone watches the Superbowl for the commercials. Here is the collection of commercials broken down by the 4 quarters of the game. Enjoy!

Twitter Posts for 2008-02-04

who else just went to godaddy.com? I’m a sheep to the advertisers #
FedEx commercial …pretty good. A- #
GoDaddy = fail #
holy s**t …talk about horrible coverage! what an amazing catch by Toomer #
@Matthom That is because they oversell. I’d rather have a company with higher prices that actually can handle the full customer load #
Yeah for Hank! lol….great commercial from Bud. A- #
Dear Eli, don’t suck tonight. You get 1 INT this evening. 2 and we’re screwed. #
HUGE stop. At least this will stay a close game. (for now) #
@StarrGazr sounds pretty even so far, but it’s hard to tell. #
how in the hell did Bradshaw come up with that football? #
uh…and the award for weirdest commercial of the superbowl goes to …. Careerbuilder.com #
It sucks that Fox gets so many "freebie" ads during the game. Either spoken or those stupid corner ads. We get it – you’re irritating. #
<– wonders if Tom Petty will have a wardrobe malfunction at half time 😛 ….that’d be so weird. #
Um, Eli? Really? Really? #
Oh snap! New Narnia movie …it’s no LoTR or Harry Potter, but it’s something #
JT squeals like a little girl. Not really funny though – Pepsi = B- #
@StarrGazr What is this "fuy" you speak of? 😛 #
My dog is curled up on the couch with me in such a cute little ball of fur. My dog = A++ 🙂 #
@JasonCalacanis I like the FedEx pidgeons … Grade = A- #
I’d be lying if I said I was looking forward to Tom Petty… *shrugs* eh. #
yeah, not so much… and yeah, I thought it was a bit phallic as well (thought I just had a dirty mind – which I do) #
"quick, play a song people actually like!" … #
I am just thrilled that it’s a close game…that’s all I wanted. #
Prediction = Giants 17 / Pats 13 (Giants score the game winning TD as time runs out) #
King of the Hill and Nascar … the down fall of American society …way to go Fox. #
@StarrGazr I fly AirTran every time I go down to ATL …never had a problem. What happened? #
SalesGenie =failed #
this is going to get overturned …wonderful. Pats get a first down. wonderful. #
@StarrGazr lol…geez. fair enough. I guess I’ve just been lucky so far. #
@StarrGazr nah, no problem 🙂 I don’t own AirTran stock. #
Wall – E looks like ET meets 2008 ….could be a cute movie #
@1god this is just a defensive battle …that’s fine with me #
talking babies are creepy. talking puking babies …even more creepy #
I think I just received spam on Last.fm …well that’s a first. #
The NFL.com oboe commercial was pretty funny. The Coke baloon one is kinda cute too. #
@leahjones I’ll look for a link for ya …give me a sec. #
Woohoo!! @StarrGazr I think the stadium is at least 60% Giants fans. #
@leahjones You’re just too fast for me 🙂 I am impressed, I was having trouble finding it. #
Zohan looks pretty funny in a mindless humor kind of way. #
@leahjones Hah! Yeah, apparently I was overcomplicating things. DIdn’t think to try the obvious search. #
Gatorade dog drinking commercial is cute. I liked that one. #
we really need another touchdown here to get a comfortable lead #
Oh, and I am very proud of Twitter for not dying under all of this stress/action tonight #
"Bud Light. Suck One" …lol. #
No way Dolphins should have ever traded Welker. He is so fast and so good. #
Pats score here. Giants (hopefully) score. Leaving the Pats to (hopefully) get stopped with time running out. #
scratch that . if the Giants do it right they will get the final chance to score… #
they should leave Moss a little bit more wide open. geez #
@chrisbrogan No worries, plenty of time left 😛 #
Adriana Lima + Football = Niiice. #
oh my ….here we go. this is the game….. #
OH MY GODD!! #
is this a good enough game now for everyone? #
!!!!!!!!! holy shit …..oh my god. #
Time for some serious defense now boys. This is it. Play smart. Finish this. #
wow. what a game. great game guys. #
so who’s the MVP? Eli? hmm… #
18-1 ain’t so bad. Wait. yeah it is. Congrats to both teams. What a great game. #
Eli just proved a lot of people very very wrong. Leave the guy alone now. #
@steelopus lol … I am a Red Sox fan, and a Giants fan. So for me this has been wonderful, but yeah the Yankees suck. #
@briancsmith Hello fellow Rochester resident! And yes, the Yankees suck. 😛 #
Eli is the MVP. Wow! What a night. Who could have possibly imagined this ending. #
Who else is going to watch the episode of House tonight? It looks pretty good. It’s an interesting idea at least. #
Good ol’ Fox …scare people from wind power (on House)…. #
headed off to a long day of classes …hopefully time flies. #
decided to pass on lunch today, stomach is a bit funky #
bitchy girl: "I mean, he obviously knew I was way too attractive for him" ….ugh, *smack* #
I am definitely ready for Springbreak, and well May. That’d be nice. #
Dell = Fail. They are delaying my thumb drive another 2 weeks …that means it will have taken them 4 weeks. #
Super Bowl XLII the second most-watched TV show ever. 97.5 million viewers. Holy crap. #
http://tinyurl.com/2ruuzx Tesla Roadster …sure it’s sexy, but it lacks airbags. Um, no thanks. #
my hatred of Internet Explorer grows a little bit each day. #
@sourjayne 1st – I can’t imagine anyone would give up a MBP for a MBA (totally different uses), 2nd – I’d guess you’ll find one for $1.7k #
That was fast. Windows Server 2008 leaked already. x86 and x64… #

watching Sunrise Earth on the Discovery Channel I’d sooo relax (and visually beautiful) #
@leahjones i did as well. I hope so badly that he wins. #
definitely time for some coffee and some homework. #
John McCain is kind of the best of the worst for the Republicans (from the perspective of a Democrat) #

Writing about philosophy is like writing about one’s own invisible friend. Sure it’s seems fun, but at the end of the day it’s just stupid. #
http://fumbleview.com/ works well for football (semi-real time) on your iPhone/Touch #
No way I write 3 pages about this, 2 full pages at most. I really hate BS papers about BS topics. #
@chrisbrogan They will be mighty upset when they lose then, huh? 😛 (Let me dream) #

Game over. I am going to fail on this paper. It’s not witty, it’s not insightful, it’s just complete BS. #
@k1v1n Are you serious? I am pretty sure our tax dollars can be spent for more important things.NFL cheating is a waste of all our money. #
http://snurl.com/1yw3u Reebok Terry Tate Super Bowl commercial "You know you need a cover sheet on your TPS reports Richard" #
uh…my RSS feed from my WordPress blog just died…um…ok? #
http://snurl.com/1yw5h "Poll suggests Obama, Clinton in dead heat in California" …very interesting. 18% of Dems haven’t decided yet. #
Now if only HelloTxt would add an iPhone/Touch compatible website (or 3rd party app)… #
almost time for some football. Go Giants! (I will try to not liveblog the entire game) #
http://tinyurl.com/2me3q8 Txt "OPEN" to the # at the public bathroom to open the door…weird/cool/kinda creepy #
Brady just snubbed Eli …I’ll chalk that one up to "Tom’s in the zone". #
I just broke 200,000 songs on Last.fm …that’s kinda crazy #
@billpalmer yeah I laughed when I noticed that, and then promptly muted it. #
I don’t like the MacBook Air, but i like the song in the commercial…anyone know what it is? #
let me repeat this… Eli to Toomer, back of the endzone as time runs out, Giants win by 4. *knocks on wood* #
and heere we go 🙂 #
the first "real" supebrbowl commercial…and…it’s kinda stupid. Bud Lite fails. #
@StarrGazr I couldn’t agree more. what a sexy car. #
@StarrGazr I’ll take 2 😛 (I am sure it’s insanely expensive) #
and we’re on the board first. great start guys #
This is definitely reminding me why I hate Fox. #
geez, and the first quarter is almost over already. time flies. #
can’t make stupid mistakes and expect to win boys…clean it up. #
Bridgestone was pretty funny/cute – B+ #
