My random thoughts, as posted on my Twitter account:

March 9, 2010

  • 11:09 am - It's a nice feeling when I'm getting Twitter followers & positive comments for a website I'm not even done developing yet. Keeps me going.

March 8, 2010

  • 11:21 pm - Woo hoo! Foursquare is back on the iTunes app store.
  • 4:31 pm - Thinking about dropping my YMCA membership. For the amount I've used it, I'm more of a charitable donor than a member at this point.
  • 11:48 am - Gotta love the engineering department. Just added a brand new wi-fi access point close to my desk. My new iTouch is happy!
  • 10:03 am - Wish I worked in Green Bay so I could go to Bangkok Garden for lunch. Tried it for the first time this weekend and LOVED it!

March 7, 2010

  • 8:35 pm - Even if the rest of this year's Oscars sucks, it was worth watching as it reminded me I need to watch all those John Hughes films again.
  • 11:56 am - Why bother subscribing to the Green Bay Press-Gazette if I still have to trudge out to the store to get it because it didn't come?

March 6, 2010

  • 9:37 pm - Just watched the Pixar Short Films collection on Blu-ray. Very good disc. Moving on to Godfather trilogy Blu-ray next time.
  • 6:45 pm - So... is there a Foursquare app for iPhone/iTouch or not? The site says there is and it points to the app store, but nothing's there.
  • 9:09 am - Excellent birthday so far! Got the Godfather Trilogy Blu-ray from my mother-in-law and a new 32GB iPod Touch from my wife!
  • 8:32 am - Anyone know places in Green Bay or nearby that give you a free meal on your birthday? Preferably without employees singing to you?

March 5, 2010

  • 9:54 pm - In a couple hours, I'll be thirty. How do I know? The "over the hill" balloon in my living room. :)
  • 3:42 pm - I haven't seen Crazy Heart yet, but I think Jeff Bridges deserves an Oscar for playing a guy who's enthusiastic about cars and batteries.
  • 1:20 pm - Now I know why I don't use Flickr for video that much. It's taking several hours to process a 90-second video.
  • 12:50 pm - OK, I'm sorry, but I don't get the whole love affair with #Tweetminer.
  • 12:10 pm - I'm so hungry right now, I was having serious thoughts about the half-eaten Taco Bell burrito left abandoned in the break room just now.
  • 11:21 am - I'm lobbying for a sequel to "Rushmore," because I'd love to see how Max Fischer pulls off "Avatar" on a high-school theater stage.
  • 9:19 am - Was stuck on 41 South this morning so I took out my Nikon D60. Took some really good frost/fog pictures but I didn't have a memory card in!

March 4, 2010

  • 5:00 pm - Nice. My office chair now squeaks like a newly-hatched baby chick. That'll get totally more tolerable over time.
  • 9:25 am - Quickly running out of time to crazy, irresponsible, "only in your twenties" kind of stuff.

March 3, 2010

  • 10:15 pm - Watching Alton Brown talk mussels on Food Network right now, and getting REALLY hungry for mussels at St. Brendan's Inn. Mmm... mussels.
  • 8:22 pm - Sitting down to watch "Cold Souls." 140-Character Review to follow.
  • 1:05 pm - Coaches Corner is taking the former Hudson's building in Grand Chute. Finally, something in Trasino Center worth visiting.
  • 9:49 am - They should put that Zippin' Pippin' roller coaster right next to Little Chute's windmill. Just think of the tourism powerhouse that'd be.

  • 4:58 pm - A little Warren Zevon isn't a bad way to wrap up an afternoon glued to the computer.

Cold Souls
One of those movies where you have to be mentally-prepared to soak it all in. Giamatti's spectacular as usual. Funny and interesting plot.
