Mark's Tweets

My random thoughts, as posted on my Twitter account:

February 3, 2012

  • 11:21 am - A 3G iPad makes these seven hour car rides so much better.

February 2, 2012

  • 9:55 am - Headline: "Avatar's Cameron buys up land in NZ hobbit country." I didn't know New Zealand was bottling hobbits now.
  • 8:25 am - Marcus Theatres is buying and de-IMAXing the Duluth OMNIMAX, part of their long term plan to monopolize and ruin all Midwest theaters.
  • 7:09 am - Groundhog saw his shadow, meaning six additional weeks of winter. So whenever it gets here, remember to add six weeks onto it.

February 1, 2012

  • 4:00 pm - I have little to no Pinterest in new social platforms. Or maybe just that one.
  • 2:20 pm - If I have a weight loss adversary, it's the 99-cent angel food cakes at U-Bake. Eighth ingredient down the list is "kryptonite for fatties."
  • 1:25 pm - A 47-degree day in January is God's way of looking down on my unshoveled driveway and saying, "Dude, I got this one."

January 31, 2012

  • 4:50 pm - When I'm researching which plumber or electrician to hire, I have two prerequisites. 1) A website. 2) A FUNCTIONING one at that.

January 30, 2012

  • 12:52 pm - It's a shame that the chain that runs almost all the movie theaters in N.E. Wisconsin has such a history of boycotting films over money.
  • 12:15 pm - Nothing makes Monday interesting like the building changing exterior locks on us when half our team is out of the office.
  • 11:25 am - Somewhere, John Hughes is rolling over in his grave. Let's hope Dorito's never gets to Anthony Michael Hall or Molly Ringwald.
  • 10:24 am - Hit my 5% first goal and down 19.4 pounds in my first month of Weight Watchers. And I barely exercised at all. Cutting out crap DOES work.

January 27, 2012

  • 2:27 pm - Green Bay photographers... where are the good places in the GB area to walk and take good nature photos? My new lens is begging for use.
  • 12:11 pm - Anyone know why suddenly I can set a "username" URL for a FB page I just created with 0 fans, but old ones without 25 followers still can't?
  • 9:07 am - Looking forward to deleting my Tumblr account this weekend. Moved all my stuff to Posterous and not looking back.

January 26, 2012

  • 1:24 pm - A co-worker just called telling me to expect alligator jerky to arrive soon via interoffice mail. Radio -- no two days are ever the same.

January 25, 2012

  • 11:01 am - Much prefer getting robocalls from GoDaddy. Much easier to hang up on than real people.
  • 9:28 am - If you put Chumbawamba in a playlist, your iPod will play it. Just goes to show it pays to take the time to think & make better decisions.

January 23, 2012

  • 10:40 pm - Moving my 365 photo blogs to Posterous. Tumblr has been a nagging frustration for a while now but the timestamp issue is the last straw.
  • 4:57 pm - Cholesterol's WAY down. May never have a folksy, heartwarming conversation with my daughter over a bowl of Cheerios like you see on TV.
  • 8:48 am - Area retailers -- I have "new baby" tax refund cash. In market for upright freezer and a new bed. Do a "free TV with purchase" sale. Now.

January 22, 2012

  • 10:24 pm - Gracie's new bedtime has meant we can start watching movies again. So far we've done "The Help" and "Moneyball." Both excellent.

January 21, 2012

  • 10:20 pm - Just finished our taxes. Now I can honestly say I love my new baby daughter on a whole new level.

January 20, 2012

  • 2:57 pm - Exploring moving from HostGator to A2Hosting. Looks like they support Drupal 7 better (and are cheaper). Anyone use them?

January 19, 2012

  • 3:21 pm - Call me elitist, but there's no way I'm having my taxes prepared by a dancing Statue of Liberty.
