Here’s my random twitter nonsense for the day:

  • 00:57 @ediFanoB He’s backtracking. The Catholic Church had been rather progressive until this new Pope came along. #
  • 00:59 @ronearlphillips Yes, but the Pope doesn’t see a difference between the us killing the world and gay people hugging. #
  • 00:59 This will be my 2,000th tweet. Woot! #
  • 11:52 @ediFanoB I have a problem with that backtracking, because it’s taking us to this screwed up medieval viewpoint that does nobody any good. #
  • 11:52 @ediFanoB And yes, there is a tweet counter. It’s on your Twitter interface, but it’s called "updates" instead of "tweets." #
  • 11:53 Happy Christmas Eve to all of you out there! #
  • 11:53 @tobiasbuckell Is there chocolate in it? #
  • 12:25 Great, now my twitteroo is broken. Just what I need. #
  • 12:33 Alright, tried to reinstall twitteroo. Didn’t work. Getting something else. #
  • 12:40 @Mulluane I don’t want to work from within Firefox. I want to work from my desktop. I never use plugins and stuff. They’re irritating. #
  • 12:46 Trying out Pwytter. Doesn’t have a short-link option and it’s somewhat buggy and non-smooth. #
  • 13:14 Madtwitter and Twitterlicious both have crappy interfaces and no short links. So those are out. #
  • 13:15 @Mrs_Bobcat That is the coolest dream EVER! #
  • 13:24 Testing out Twhirl as we speak. So far I love it. #
  • 13:25 Yes, I will be keeping Twhirl. It might prove to be a tad flashy in the end, but so far it offers pretty much everything I want in one prog #
  • 13:42 Loudtwitter hasn’t gone haywire yet on my blog, so it seems like it will be posting my daily tweets to WISB safely. Yippee! #
  • 13:44 On a side note, I have two books to review at some point today and more books to read! Currently reading Seaborn by Chris Howard. #
  • 13:47 @jesseluna Gah! Sorry, I’m learning how to use twhirl and accidently unfollowed and blocked you…It’s fixed and you’re back to normal! #
  • 13:47 @jesseluna Hope you have a good time in Pasadena, by the way. #
  • 13:54 New blog post: Twitteriffic Stuffs tinyurl.com/9s532h #
  • 16:20 @tobiasbuckell Aww, well that’s sad. I could send you a new roof. It would be made out of old saltine crackers though… #
  • 16:21 @SFDiplomat Oh, I saw that post! Ha! It has been a while since that stuff was put out in the blogosphere! #
  • 16:22 @Colleen_Lindsay I didn’t know she was in Pretty in Pink, but then again I was probably 5 when she was acting. #
  • 16:23 @Colleen_Lindsay On a side note, Molly Ringwald used to live near me when I was in Placerville a few years back. #
  • 16:23 @Colleen_Lindsay Another side note: Molly Ringwald used to occasionally go to my sister’s workplace, though my sis never saw her. #
  • 16:24 We just went to buy all our supplies for Xmas dinner! Yay for chicken and other yummy stuff! #
  • 16:25 And on a completely unrelated note, I am actually really enjoying Seaborn by Chris Howard. Love the writing. #
  • 16:26 Does anyone know which cable stations will be playing classic Christmas shows like A Christmas Story and the old claymation stuff? #
  • 16:28 @SarurunKamui Link me to it when you finish. I like art :). #
  • 16:34 @SarurunKamui If you mean the game, I don’t know. Never really heard of it until now, but I like the artwork and Japanese art in general. #
  • 16:44 @SarurunKamui Japanese art is absolutely gorgeous and totally unique. Hence why I like it. I think for some it’s an acquired taste, tho. #
  • 16:44 I’ve been put in a horrible position. Karen Joy Fowler is teaching a fantasy writing course at UCSC and it just got an opening… #
  • 18:20 @Mulluane Yes, saltine crackers. They make a good insulator! #
  • 18:25 Would folks be interested in me doing a sort of SF Signal style link roundup? I used to do it, but stopped a long time back. #
  • 19:51 @mikodragonfly It would probably be much the same as SF Signal’s thing, but different sources and some nifty science stories thrown in. #
  • 19:52 @SarurunKamui Yeah www.sfsignal.com/ #
  • 19:54 @dafkah Sounds like an interesting premise! #
  • 20:35 @ronearlphillips Haha, I don’t have to celebrate it at the same time! Ha! I get a few more hours of Christmas Eve than you :P…wait…gah #
  • 22:58 @michaelcanfield You know, the sad thing is that that trailer actually makes the live action Thundercats idea very appealing. #
  • 22:58 @Mulluane Aww, you’re lucky! I didn’t get any presents :P. #
  • 22:59 @Mulluane It really depends. Some folks want it around release time, others before. You could ask the author for a preference… #
  • 23:18 @LoopdiLou I’ll be over to eat your milk and cookies in about an hour. #
  • 23:18 @SarurunKamui *gasp* Talk about a cool present! #
