The number of blue beanies going about today is awesome. Here’s hoping more people are encouraged to rock out web standards. #bbd09
In bad taste? Perhaps. Funny? Yes. http://bit.ly/6LwIiH via @TheOnion - Zombie Reagan Raised From Grave To Lead GOP
I’m apparently link-happy today. Iron Man 2 poster! http://bit.ly/8c6adO #awesome
I used to be okay RTing annoying messages to get free crap, then I realized that it’s not worth annoying hundreds of people for free crap.
This is new. USPS shipping tracker says my item was misrouted and is being corrected ASAP. Here’s hoping it arrives before I leave. Ugh.
RT @dcorsetto: GUYS. http://bit.ly/6SkrJ3 You’ve already seen this, I trust. But you haven’t seen enough of it.
I find myself quite amused and intrigued by @gowalla - it’s neat to be able to check in and explore the area, almost like an ARG.

Mmm, sandwiches — at Hello, Deli! http://gowal.la/s/LAJ
I find that I can be a rather creative person, but I need a seed to start with. Can’t seem to find good seeds.
It’s kind of funny to me that I get the best Comcast support through Twitter. I have a quick question. Help me Comcast. :D
There, finally got my toque on for #bbd09 - yay web standards! http://bit.ly/7v1GL6
Hearing that the super guitar deal is for an RB1 guitar, not RB2, may not be such an amazing deal. Sorry about that. Checking now.
If you play Rock Band on the Xbox 360, go buy a spare wireless guitar SUPER cheap while supplies last. http://bit.ly/80fvzC

Possibly some places to go and eat while in NYC?
If it’s appropriate, that’s fine, but for most intents and purposes, intensive purposes is the wrong phrase.
I don’t care that it’s a pop reference. Hearing people say “I’m kind of a big deal” grates on me.
Overthinking it all →
I’ve had a number of other titles floating around in my head for this post.
Thinking, Rethinking, Overthinking
Too many tools
Endings, beginnings
Restarts

Then I realized I’d already…
I really wish there was a way to uninstall iPhone apps (primarily games) without losing all my data associated with the app.
Jolly Christmas from Sinatra is on @amazonmp3 for $2.99 today. http://bit.ly/6ohs2z - classic Christmas songs, these.

#FF @MuppetsStudio is an official channel for Muppets stuff, so, that’s awesome and worth a follow. :D
QuickTime X in Snow Leopard makes putting iPhone-compat video into iTunes easy, but pegs both processors HARD. Fast conversion, though.
Lisa’s cousin’s car. Haven’t been in a car with hydros in years. So fun. http://twitpic.com/r376j
Happy Thanksgiving, tweeps. So much to be thankful for this year.
Really, just explore the full set of video from the Muppets Studio channel, so good. http://bit.ly/5u2S5n
If you enjoyed Muppets doing Bohemiam Rhapsody, check out their Habanera aria: http://bit.ly/8wTIa8
Neat, my DJ Hero review is up on Digital Entertainment News: http://bit.ly/8C5CvH
Box of fundraising candy in breakroom with a picture of a little girl smiling. Life lesson: Smile cutely at people and they do your work.
It’s oddly satisfying to write code that uses a progress bar, then run that code and watch the bar fill as work happens.
ZOMG, I have like 38 wave invites right now (seriously). Anybody want in the next big thing nobody knows how to use yet? DM me your email.
Rock Band DLC next week is brought to you by the letter N. Nirvana and Night Ranger. Hahaha Night Ranger! Awesome cheese.
Muppets singing Bohemian Rhapsody in 1080p is about the best thing I’ve seen today, if not ever. http://bit.ly/6FvmvX
With native PDF support coming to the Kindle, I wish I knew someone who had one so I could try it out.
Two great physics iPhone games: @PocketBallApp by Big Bucket and Implode by @IUGOME - both awesome, new addictions.
So glad I have a passport already, and will be able to keep flying. http://bit.ly/4X6cQ8
I think I have half of ‘em. RT @RockBandAide […]1,000 songs have now been published for Rock Band! Interesting facts: http://bit.ly/6XlQIP
That being said, I am going to bookmark a few of the plugins in @eeheist and revisit them in a few weeks.
I really like the idea of @eeheist but the licenses are for EE 1.6? With EE 2 so near? Think I’ll pass for now.
Just got an awesome idea for an MMO. Everyone plays anthropomorphic cattle. I’ll call it MMOO.
I try. :) RT @LisaArn: Flowers from @brianarn for the 10 year anniversary of our first date :) http://pic.gd/993e7
Am I the only person who finds big “Thank you for the RTs <list of people>” tweets to be immensely annoying?
Oddly enough, I don’t mind Follow Friday. That’s different to me, because it’s not just thank-yous, but like “Here’s neat people.”
Help me, Internet. I need a couple of pairs of jeans hemmed up ~2” with a semi-quick turnaround. Recommendations? #fb
Signs that it’s a holiday work week: I just heard “SQUIRREL!” exclaimed rather loudly from a neighboring office.
Yay Twitter on Xbox - I guess. Not the easiest thing to use.
http://flic.kr/p/7hhDxn - one of the best pictures of me ever. From my impromptu presentation at #abqbarcamp - thanks @skyhawk133!

It’s not about no-tables, it’s about using meaningful, semantic markup. That’s not always divs. [/mini-standards-rant]
I am so visiting this Apple store when I’m in NYC in a couple of weeks. <3 http://bit.ly/8EKZSI
[mini-standards-rant]If you’re replacing HTML tables with dozens of divs, you’re most likely doing it wrong.
