@leemathews Not being able to change parts in it doesn’t necessarily make the iPad less revolutionary. Less ideal for a tech, maybe.
@ttscoff Of course, you do have a point regarding those spandex shorts. WTF?
@ttscoff Oh man, if douchbaggery prevented me from enjoying musicians, there wouldn’t be much to choose from. Miles Davis to Axl and beyond.
@ttscoff Don’t get me wrong, I’m enjoying the Slash album. But I’m still also a fan of Axl, crazy mofo that he is.
@ttscoff No Axl?! Sacrilege!

Over and over.
@lonelysandwich Are you sure those words are in the right order?
Isn’t it sad when someone masters a difficult skill only to give it up and never use it again?
Can’t wait to do that with diaper changing.
Just heard the Van Halen cover of Dancing in the Streets with DLR. Can’t decide if it’s an abomination, or if I like it.
I think both.
I previously retweeted this tweet:

Wife’s away for the weekend partying with girlfriends in Whistler. She bought me an Innis & Gunn, so I figure we’re even. No, seriously.

Enviously reading about everybody’s iPad experiences. I’m just sitting here playing with my iPad mini.
Ok, it’s an iPhone. You got me.
They should make an iPad with a fold-open keyboard that can sit on your lap. /via @badbanana Me: I can’t believe nobody’s thought of that!
John @gruber is the best kind of geeky. Smart and clever. Check out what I assume was his first tweet from his iPad: http://j.mp/aU4767
This “your choices are ok for you” stuff is bullshit; some things are just not right.
It’s good for people to hear that not everyone accepts their choices, even if it’s hard being the one that’s willing to speak up.
nbradbury The whole “open vs closed” platform debate is such bullshit. The platform with the coolest software wins.
For the big content companies, the iPad is like the second coming of the CDROM era. Because they don’t get it. iPad is still revolutionary.
