08:55 @petersagal How many Microsoft engineers does it take to change a #lightbulb? None; we'll just declare darkness an industry standard.
08:56 @petersagal How many feminists does it take to change a #lightbulb? One, and that's NOT FUNNY!
08:58 @petersagal How many Jewish mothers does it take to change a #lightbulb? "It's alright, I'll just sit here in the dark."
08:59 @petersagal How many software engineers does it take to change a #lightbulb? None, it's clearly a hardware problem.
09:01 @petersagal How many hardware engineers does it take to change a #lightbulb? None, we'll change the documentation.
09:02 @petersagal How many New Yorkers does it take to change a #lightbulb? "None of your f%#king business!"
09:09 What's the difference between a computer salesman and Rick Santorum? The salesman doesn't know he's full of shit. http://t.co/xLYnmj6L
10:28 If Romney doesn't believe he can win without lying, is there anyone who believes he can govern without lying?
12:27 Road tripping'! Taking a little drive in the Central Valley for a few days. So far the weather is cooperating.
12:42 Got the "You look just like Spielberg" thing again today. I don't see it, aside from Jewish, gray hair, beard & glasses.
18:59 Here's something you don't see in the Bay Area. Or is that just me? http://t.co/etAM4ObW
22:14 @srj68 Right now I'm on the Central Valley side of Pacheco Pass. So there's water for fishing around here. But live bait vending? Funny.

11:45 @ThePlumLineGS Did Romney describe this worst ever unemployment with pride in his voice? (If you're part of the problem, you're Mitt.)

Sunday's Tweets

08:44 Am I just cranky, or are this year's April Fool stunts particularly lame and annoying?
15:31 No, http://change.org, repeating Mike Daisey's lies about Apple doesn't make you heroic or even relevant. It makes you gullible idiots.
15:33 RT @neiltyson: Yup. If pasta & antipasta ever touch, they annihilate. That's why restaurants never serve them together. [The man's a god.]
19:23 @GeekandSundry I waited 8 1/2 hours in line for my iPhone 4. How's that?
19:33 @GeekandSundry San Francisco to Sydney for a Farscape convention. Twice.
20:05 @Lomara I got to talk to @FeliciaDay! How cool was that?
20:06 I just got to spend a few seconds on the @GeekandSundry Google+ hangout! Talked with @FeliciaDay and everything!
21:04 @AnneWheaton You are having *way* too much fine with them googly eyes!
21:50 Crap. My mom gave me plain paper napkins with my school lunches. Clearly she didn't love me at all. http://t.co/BS7xr2iK

08:18 @VictoriaDahl I've read (okay, listened to) both books, and I still found those trailers disturbing. What does that say about me? Or you?
08:20 @wilw Just realized? You mean all it took was a series of tweets from your much better half?

07:55 @alwayscoffee Winchester House is right down the road from me. Been by it hundreds of times, inside only once. More peculiar than creepy.
08:01 Compassionate conservatism, now with 43% less compassion. Is Mitt really the best the GOP can do? http://t.co/kvpwdOSr
08:06 @alwayscoffee I took some a few years ago. Should really go back, preferably when the skies are a little less gray.
08:09 @alwayscoffee Never could resist a good pair of puppy dog eyes...
08:45 @VictoriaDahl "I need a drink." That'll only make the need to pee worse. Cause & effect, dontcha know.
08:53 @VictoriaDahl There's your problem: too much imagination! Good for writers. Bad for moms.
13:45 @alwayscoffee Since you asked... http://t.co/OTxUTICY
14:40 Really? A @geekandsundry show starring @paulandstorm? And it's not even my birthday!
20:16 @KaleyCuoco @billprady I started with 2 wisdom teeth; now I have one. Thinking wisdom's grossly overrated. And I got good drugs out of it.

09:37 RT @IsobelCarr: Saying that wearing a hoodie invites violence is the same as saying wearing a mini skirt invites rape. #Bullshit [Exactly.]

13:02 @alwayscoffee Look on the bright side, Ali. It makes us easier to identify racist assholes like the idiots at A&F who came up with this.
13:04 @alwayscoffee PUT DOWN THE KITTEN AND STEP AWAY!
14:15 RT @AdrianChen: No, Abercrombie & Fitch is not selling racist pants. http://t.co/ulzy6nb7 [I'm relieved, and embarrassed I believed it.]

13:30 Finally got to play with the new iPad. Amazing. And a moment ago I was fine with my iPad 2.
16:56 @AnneWheaton A friend in Perth once pointed out that they're closer to Singapore than they are to Sydney. Oz is a *big* place.

Monday's Tweets

06:31 Reading @Molly23's tweets, I can only conclude that it's possible to find someone adorable and disturbing at one and the same time.
06:44 @alwayscoffee Look back about 8 hours in @Molly23's Twitter stream and you'll understand my appreciation/concern.
06:45 @alwayscoffee Also, you're way too far to the adorable side of the adorable/disturbing continuum. And so was she, until now.
06:47 Santorum is consistent in his positions, if by that we mean consistently offensive to non-prigs. http://t.co/3r0uyV9K
06:51 @alwayscoffee Not wrong at all. Even better if you've met @Molly23. http://t.co/OQKBXvzV
07:16 @alwayscoffee Speaking of adorable & disturbing, here's my first exposure to @Molly23: http://t.co/8fpMMHvq
09:44 RT @VictoriaDahl: From your nationwide bestselling blockbuster hit Fifty Shades of Grey! http://t.co/1NBvxFDz [I will *never* unhear that.]

08:47 Spent yesterday at a http://t.co/VrbKvX9f event in SF, an opportunity to catch up with a couple of friends from my DataSynapse days.
10:37 This American Life reveals Mike Daisey's Apple/Foxconn story was full of lies. Can't wait to hear their explanation. http://t.co/n9BF0d8l
10:57 Mike Daisey on his Apple/Foxconn show (my interpretation): What I do is art. It doesn't have to be accurate to be true. http://t.co/7ITs0jNx
11:17 @BuzzFeed How can Mike Daisey's point and his cause re Apple/Foxconn not be questionable when he has to make shit up to justify them?
11:33 They're tearing San Francisco's Metreon apart. Wonder if it'll ever be anything other than a retailing fail.
12:02 Am I the only one who wishes Apple would sue Mike Daisey for slander? They won't, but I'd like to see the lying liar get his.
12:17 We're constantly being told by @WaitWait Don't Tell Me, whether we wait (wait) or not. #NPRconfessions
12:45 Wassamatta, WI? Afraid to have someone support a woman's abortion decision as doctor tries to bully her out of it? http://t.co/1FA90Qoo
13:35 @VictoriaDahl Wait, there's such a thing as vaginal sex?
16:20 A month after my interviews, potential employer came back with an answer. Sadly, not the one I wanted. *sigh*
16:21 Thought my car stereo was dying, as right channel went away. Turned out to be a bad cable to my iPhone. Nothing better than a cheap fix.
16:22 @BonesMcCoy Red Shirt Memorial Fund. Better yet, blue sweaters for red shirts.
16:23 @alwayscoffee Thanks, Ali. At least I can stop wondering.
17:04 @wilw More #RadioFreeBurrito? Yes, definitely!

09:53 @barryeisler "Get this shit out of their system"? Was that a Santorum joke?
09:55 Happy π Day, everyone! What kind of π will you be having? I'm thinking Boston Cream.
10:23 My parents had a set of Britannicas, & dozens of their yearly update volumes. Looked beautiful on their shelves, where they sat unread.
10:40 RT @pourmecoffee: Honoring Pi Day by being irrational. [Why is this night different than all other nights?]

12:55 @barryeisler Dan Savage did one heck of a job. Hard to think of Santorum without thinking of santorum.
14:02 Rick Santorum wants to outlaw porn and get Puerto Ricans to speak English, dammit! (I added the dammit.) Please make this guy the nominee.
15:54 Embarrassed I didn't notice my monthly Planned Parenthood donation stopped when my credit card # changed. It's back, so screw you, Mitt.

10:05 Just put my @netflix account on hold. It's called voting with my dollars. #boycottrush
10:12 @IsobelCarr War with Iran will be self-funding from the oil we take. Isn't that how the Iraq war worked out?
12:07 That was quick. Netflix clarified their stance on Rush. They didn't mean to advertise there and will be sure they don't again. Hold unheld.
12:14 @pemalevy Looks like @Netflix ad was a mistake, a local ad buy. They didn't intend to be an advertiser. http://t.co/8jO00Udb
