The bus always seems too hot or too cold… As if the optimum is an undesirable outcome. #
Thanks to the cold, my hands feel like I have been satisfying the white witch from Narnia. Except I am severely short on turkish delight. #

I like using ellipses, but I think I have accidentally replaced the semicolon. Die, semicolon, die… And bad grammar lives on. #

Wow, Obama's announcement about Osama Bin Laden is surprisingly shocking news. #obl #
Only 302 views? It is Bin Laden! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNYmK19-d0U #
I am glad my kids are too young for me to have to explain what the heck happened last night. #theworldisascaryplace #
And in 5 or so years my oldest will ask me what it was like to be there on 9/11/01. Is that the new "where were you when jfk was shot"? #
And I expect being a child, she will ask in such a way, it will sound like it happened hundreds of years ago… When dinosaurs were pets. #
And I will say that I had a pet threehorn, thank you very much. Trix was the best pet ever… too bad he died of Fatal Asteroid Syndrome. #

@ChicagoBurdman if I had a tripel belgium style beer – what kind of dessert would you recommend? #

@scalzi you should raffle off a chance to play some Portal2 co-op with a lucky winner to benefit Japan Tsunami aid. #

"I AM ALL EARS" #nightmareiftrue #
Like the Maddy L'Engle dragon, all wings and eyes. Except ears and lobes. A flurry of aural nightmares come to life and roaming the world. #
Beware the eldritch horror from the deeping void, it shall hear the world and consume all. Its words are spoken, heard, and made unspoken. #
Speaking of which, I have never heard 'I am all eyes' or 'I am all noses' or 'I am all fingers'. Wait a min, heard the last one. No comment. #

Cupcakes? Cupcakes in a van down by the river! Gigi's cupcake van to be exact. http://twitpic.com/4qahqj #
I don't know if parking your cupcake van outside the pf chang's is the best idea, but whatever. After chinese, I never crave cake. #
But I am sure I am in the minority. Who doesn't think cupcakes after eating at a chinese place with "bistro" in their name. #

I'm bummed since I was bounced by ReadyTalk last week. I was hopeful that I would at least get to see the inside of their offices! #
If you could hook the last pay event on a meter, you could create an app to track avail parking in a city. Imagine the aggregated data! #
Real time stats on parking in a major city, along with implied behaviors. No easy way to track if the spot is open even if its paid. #
A paid open meter could be estimated. I bet the parking authority for the city has some rough numbers and percentages. Could extrapolate. #
Could pin the data on googlemaps and have the pins color coded. Green for open, yellow for possible open/paid. #
If parking behaviors are eventually plotted, then events could be avoided. And in Denver, events can occur on any side. #
Could even couple the data with traffic, providing a crude navigation feature to avoid chokepoints and land a spot. #
