09:52 Autoadjusting clock was way off this morning, so I've been up since 4. Power failure, luckily as I finished getting dressed. A good day.
11:14 You know what's amazing? The power failure at home was the *high* point of my morning.

06:52 Two years ago a friend insisted that any concern about nuclear power was overblown & unjustified. Wonder if he still thinks so. #Fukushima
06:55 @fraggletastic Really? Explosion at the site? A year's worth of radiation every hour? Suggestions that the water supply is unsafe?
06:58 @fraggletastic We clearly have different definitions of "proof". And this isn't over by a long shot. Come back to me in a month or two.
07:02 @fraggletastic Doesn't sound like either one to me: http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/story/2011/03/11/earthquake-japan-nuclear-reactor.html
07:55 One drag about my new iPad: iTunes loaded all the apps I have on my phone, but not all the folder info. Gonna have to recreate all that.
08:09 @MsCaliLogan If it's bad today, it was 10x worse last night. I was in line almost 4 hours at my local mall.

13:22 Sounds like the lines at Apple Stores are crazy, with hours to go before iPad goes on sale on the Left Coast. What to do, what to do?
13:27 Glad to see Facebook is on top of their tech. My tweets are appearing on FB again after a month of brokenness.
14:25 Came within one click of ordering my iPad 2 instead of waiting in line. But I just couldn't do it. Guess I know where I'll be tonight...
15:41 On line at Valley Fair. 1:20 before they start selling, and at least 2 more hours of line in front of me.
18:25 I can see the entrance to the mall. Won't be long now. #iPad
18:42 I'm in the mall! And I have my ticket, so I know I'll get the one I want! #iPad
20:13 Home with my iPad. I got on line almost 2 hours before sales began, and they were already out of AT&T models when I reached the store.
20:14 Lucky I wanted the WiFi-only iPad. So why am I talking to you instead of playing with it?
22:30 AppleTV is really kind of amazing. Need to play with it a lot more.
