  • Friday is upon us and I couldn’t be more glad for it. If I can make it through the day I have Watchmen to look forward to. Then sleep… #
  • @2muchexposition I thought the Evil Dead musical was a lot of fun. #
  • I am amused by the spam I just got entitled “Get champion dong”, even moreso than the usual penile enlargement spam. #
  • @tdelucci The Whole Foods in the Time Warner building had tons of the cassis lambic. And all the other flavors, too. #
  • Eating over the keyboard is never a good idea. #
  • The iphone has been out, what, two years now? I’m still surprised there’s no keyboard for it. I thought that would be a no-brainer. #
  • Awesome Neil Finn song with backup by Johnny Marr and 2 Radiohead members: http://tinyurl.com/5nqamt #
  • #wine Had a Seghesio old vine Zinfandel last night – jammy nose and incredibly deep, complex flavor. Must find more. #
  • Five years ago my tastes ran to Cabs and Pinots. Now I’m more into Zins and even Merlots. But I always loved Shiraz. #
  • My dream job aside from writing has always been something to do with travel. But something with beer and/or wine would be a close second #
  • @chrisbillett International Pub Crawl Magazine? Sounds like a hit to me. #
  • Incompetence reigns in corporate America. In other news, the sky is blue. #
  • @chrisbillett Magazines are hurting, but people usually drink in bad times. Which wins out? #
  • @chrisbillett I kinda liked the idea of someone paying me to travel and drink. That sounds like the best job ever. #
  • @chrisbillett Oh and you can have sections – some where you describe the places and the drinks, then the discussion that arises, with guests #
  • @pablod Cool. I’ve been trying to push Stanza for a while now. Read two novels using it so far. #
  • Can anyone tell me how many issues they are up to in the comic, Walking Dead? #

  • Quick – hiccup remedies – go! #
  • I killed the hiccups with a chewy ginger candy #
  • An interview by me with the folks behind Brain Harvest at Tor.com: http://tinyurl.com/cp8yh3 #
  • @tdelucci There was talk of going to see it tomorrow night (amongst various ppl) but no concrete plans yet. I will brave crowds, too. #
  • @BrainHarvest I dl’ed it last night. Haven’t read for anything more than 30 seconds, but it works fine. The interface is similar to Stanza #
  • @BrainHarvest The most annoying piece is going through Amazon’s system to get the books. Even for the free ones you have to checkout, etc… #
  • @BrainHarvest I haven’t yet looked into the idea of viewing docs sent from elsewhere (which you can on the Kindle, but not sure on iPhone). #
  • @tobiasbuckell Good news! #
  • @BrainHarvest I think it’s pretty good. And I read both Little Brother and Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom on it with no problems. #
  • Holy crap – Watchmen as a Sat. morning cartoon (the visuals are spot on): http://tinyurl.com/caczew #
  • @tdelucci Dont blame 1 great show 4 a crappy show’s failings.Yes,Whedons in common but would u trash the Beatles cause you dont like Wings? #

  • Beer at Vol de Nuit this evening was great. And their frites were as good as promised. #
  • I contemplated giving up coffee yesterday. Today that seems like a dream. Being up this early should be the deviation, not the norm. #
  • For any U2 fans out there, how is the new album? Thumbs up? Thumbs down? #
  • Kindle iPhone app is an interesting prospect. And it could get me to buy more books without worrying about finding space for them. I’m a … #
  • @chriscallan I have no idea what they have available. I won’t be able to check it out until I get home tonight, but I’ll take a look. #
  • #beer Corsendonk brown ale: despite a 7.5% ABV it was amazingly drinkable. Nice foamy head. Malt character and sweetness in the finish. #
  • @Shineanthology How do you feel about the Maredsous 8 (assuming you’ve had it)? #
  • Wow. Being a contractor really sucks. I’m happy to have a job, but being treated like a second class citizen gets old fast. #
  • Today is a good day for people who read on their iPhones – the Kindle app and the free Random House downloads for Stanza. #

  • Today has been a good day. No, an awesome day. #
  • Back to work for the first time in almost a week. Feels like any other day. Too bad I left my iPod at home. #
  • Started rereading Watchmen last night in prep for the movie. The Dr. Manhattan issue was perfect, I thought. #
  • With the current lineup of Mac hardware and software, I think I’m close to having an easy and reliable backup process. Of course I will … #
  • First day back into the breach is a success. Or close to it. Though it has roused a mighty appetite which I will sate with beer. #
  • Twitter is a great way for breweries to get out info on their beer and events. #

  • @Mikespins The EEE you mean? I have one. It’s awesome. #
  • @Mikespins I have the first one they put out. It’s a real computer, though it’s not the most powerful. Mine has linux but most have windows #
  • Why am I watching TLC and a pregnancy show? Time for some DVR watching… #
  • Got another rejection today, but another nice one. My post-apocalyptic story was too post-apocalyptic. #
  • @ecmyers I got an unexpected surprise in a snow day today. Hurray@ #
  • @ecmyers I’d say so. #
  • I am frittering my day away #
  • If you live in NYC and have any recommendations for pubs with decent beer lists, let me know. I’m looking to try some new places. #
  • Ginger Man is already on the list (love that place), as is Barcade. #
  • And Jimmy’s No. 43 #
  • Only remarkable beer from the Gettysburg trip was the Roy Pitz Smoked Lager from nearby Chamersburg PA. Website names it Ludwig’s Revenge. #
  • The smokiness was evident in taste, though it was an easy drinking beer with a light quality that went well with food. Dry, but enjoyable. #
