Made 2 to/two/too mistakes today. Falling apart.

Renaming the database is the easiest part of renaming a database.

For some meetings it makes sense to disallow cell phones as well as laptops.

@rands Yes, and any “z” varieties too…. bazillion, etc

Corn, a good excuse to eat a lot of butter.

via Twitterrific

Corn, the other yellow veggie.

via Twitterrific

Corn, it’s what’s left over.

@rands I’ll pretend you didn’t call the source of bacon a loser.

Movable Type’s entry fields can be reordered by dragging them in the display options. Not very obvious, but handy.

I think the Spurs should just give up now. I love ‘em, but they don’t stand a chance this year.

@cliftonite I could/should make comments about your poor decision to go with a Canon… but it doesn’t really matter.

Probably not a good idea for me to be left alone, with a credit card, in a LEGO store.

Pedicure for the first time. Not a bad way to spend an hour in a massage chair.

via Twitterrific

Tired of my keyboard constantly shocking me.

@cliftonite Nikon D90 (or I’d sell you my used D50, so I could buy a D90)

JWW. A mmmmmmmmmmmmighty good man.

Implemented MovableType’s find/replace to make little style adjustments, on the fly, in my feed. Thrilled with this tiny victory.

Some people are truly full of BS, and I don’t have the heart to call them on it.

@rands I think with prepositions? Er… prepositions I think with?

@danielpunkass You’re a whore-ible twitter example ;)

Sometimes it’s difficult to spell things correctly.

Tax procrastination… taxcrastication?

Eating fresh basil on sandwiches can cause you to have basily breath.

Think your blog is dead? Post something and you might be surprised by how many are still keeping an eye on it.

@SaraJoyPond Unlike NetVibes, Google Reader still combs my feeds while I’m logged out, whether it’s a few or 134.

via Twitterrific in reply to SaraJoyPond

Every time I try a stand-alone feed reader I end up right back at Google Reader.

I think my wife would be upset to find out I’m not a huge fan of apples.

@adamengst Byline caches images, but I bet plenty of others have already told you by now.

I now know for a fact that the Spurs won’t win it all this year. Here’s hoping Manu is better for next season.

@cliftonite http://twitpic.com/2wkt9 - It’s time to put away your Christmas tree. Seriously.

Turns out I’m not as horrible of a husband as I’ve been lead to believe.

Still working out kinks in the new installation.

via Twitterrific

Lesson of the day… Movable Type Motion is NOT in the ProNet version of MT Commercial. I think they’re trying to make this hard.

via Twitterrific

@onMovableType In other words… thank you. Others might wonder the same thing. Maybe an update to the FAQ?

via Twitterrific

@onMovableType I searched the Motion product pages for 20 minutes and couldn’t find that info. I knew I had to be on MT 4.25, but that’s it.

via Twitterrific

Can’t, for the life of me, figure out how to download or implement Movable Type Motion. Lame.

Watched http://layertennis.com for the first time this season. Thought Rex easily took the win.

Oreo’s - one of the best socially unacceptable indulgences. Cheetos too. And corn nuts.

A twitter client that works, even behind this lame firewall. I’m listening….
