My day just got totally fucking awesome! Going to Canucks / Blackhawks game 1 in a luxury box suite - thanks to my buddy Ernie!

Middle clicking on browser tabs to close them makes me want to middle click on the title bar of applications to close them.
RT @swirlee The New Mexico Technology Council has named an award in honor of our late friend Marc Orchant. How wonderful. http://is.gd/vgb5
I loved the season finale of Chuck, especially the nod to the Matrix at the end. #savechuck
@jasonclarke Not that I’d suggest downloading your television content. That would be wrong. But it is possible.
@geoffgauthier And of course http://www.tvrss.net/
@geoffgauthier Ahh, that’s where torrent clients that can subscribe to RSS feeds come in. uTurrent and Miro are a couple of good ones.
@geoffgauthier There are (at least for Mythbusters) if you download torrents of them. Not that I’d suggest or condone that.
@leemathews What if you’re not interested in gaming on your computer?Personally, I’ve never found Wimdows gaming all that pleasant.
Rockin’ it at the Elk’s Club.
Good news: got my MacBook Pro back from the Apple store, working again. Bad news? It no longer sleeps when I close the lid. Back on Monday.
@TUAW Is this a hint to write more?
Apple store called, my MBP is fixed and ready for pick-up. 3rd replacement logic board in under 2 years.
Listening to Brad Feld at Steamworks #blesfeld
Gotta say, listening to Dan Russell do the play-by-play for the Giants is utterly painful. Especially compared to Shorthouse or Hughson.
Just watched the Canucks beat the Blues, then the Giants beat the Rockets. Fun night of Vancouver hockey.
Twitter has taught me that I use too many words.
People should feel ashamed for assuming she was a stooge, not be proudly exclaiming “we were all laughing at you”. It’s ridiculous.
@SlvrLambStudios Absolutely. I totally agree.
There are tons of beautiful singers all around us, but we can’t see it like we see physical beauty. So it’s not as noticeable.
It’s like people are conditioned to assume that people that sound beautiful have to look beautiful.
@SlvrLambStudios It’s so exploitive. She’s remarkable because she’s ugly, and she happens to be able to sing. If she was hot,who would care?
@Anih Unfortunately no. I’m not a huge fan of Celine’s, but her range is incredible. Susan sounds great, but her range wasn’t remarkable.
Not to sound like an asshole, but is Susan Boyle the only plain-looking woman the entire internet has seen sing beautifully before?

Just spent three minutes figuring out how to do a line break in Twitterrific (ctrl-enter), then decided the tweet was stupid and deleted it.
@steverubel My Gmail is very slow today as well, both regular Gmail and Google Apps Gmail.
Just deleted 16 iPhone apps. They sure do stack up over time.
The @birdhouseapp is for people that are clever enough to have so many ideas for tweets that they need to organize them. Me, not so much.
RT @VanCanucks #canuckstix Retweet this message by Apr14th @ 5pm for your chance to win a pair of tickets to Wed’s playoff game!
@chartier Something will change, the market will adapt. The Boxee of the web will come along at some point and change everything. I hope.
@chartier I blog for $$$ too, and ad blocking should offend me, but until the majority of sites treat readers respectfully, it just doesn’t.
@chartier Re: AdBlock, users would tolerate reasonable online ads, but most sites shit ads all over their pages rendering them unusable.
RT @hotdogsladies: When there’s a Nuremberg-style trial for lite jazz, I’ll b thr holding a pic of Monk, & throwing shit at Kenny G’s cage.
Convinced the wife to watch Mythbusters with me. She surprised herself by enjoying it.
TR @leemathews It’s amazing how often I hit “sadf” as the first four letters when I pound out random text. (me too!)
@SlvrLambStudios I did too. I suspect they’re used to it, but that’s even more sad.
This is a 50-something man acting like a petulant teenager (and that’s being charitable).
Wow, Billy Bob Thornton is a SERIOUS douchebag: http://bit.ly/2cKCA
Going to the gym for an orientation appointment tonight. Thankfully, modern gym equipment has enough buttons and gadgets to keep me interest
@MikeTRose Yep, I’ll write it up tonight.
Loving the new Gmail Mobile on the iPhone
So I tried this omegle.com “chat with a stranger” for a blog post, but now I’m stuck in a conversation with a nice guy. How do I get out?
Were? Was? Whatever.
Baseball tweets are going to be the death of me. What can I say? Baseball would be interesting if it were HOCKEY.
I feel a little dirty now, but the free software helps.
I bought the @MacHeist 3 Bundle. 12 Top Mac apps worth $900+ for just $39 AND I just got Delicious Library 2 FREE! http://mhtweet.com/ERvIKe
Forgive me for my next tweet…
@MikeTRose Re: left-wrist pain, I’d suggest you stop pressing ctrl-command-w, but I know that’s completely out of the question.
I’ve had this Visa account for 15 years, sadly it is carrying a balance. I’m sure they’ll come around when I transfer the balance and close.
Visa just lost my business today. Got an offer from MasterCard for a lower rate, called to ask Visa to match it, they won’t.
The beautiful sunny day is helping with my case of the Mondays.
@bradlinder The Mac version of Firefox 3.0.8 seems to have introduced a new memory leak, too. I’m restarting it 3x as much as before.
@c9 Firefox 3.0.8
@c9 I love TwitterGadget for Gmail, but unfortunately it’s throwing a “session expired” error no matter what I do.
Bedtime for the kids, just in time for the start of the #canucks game
It’s the first of May, first of May!
I think sometimes I have more conversations with people at the office when I’m working from home than I do when I’m actually there.
@kcase I vote to keep the sparkle update in OmniFocus after April 1!
