15:23 @scapersuse A monorail? That sounds more like a Shelbyville kind of plan.
19:00 At TheatreWorks in Mountain View for a little Jane Austen. No, not P&P. It's S&S tonight, although I'd prefer Blackadder's A&A.

11:14 Car in for service. Tire pressure light came on during drive home last night. Pressure's fine, so I'm afoot while they figure it out.
16:08 Tim Cook's an impressive guy. Apple the company will do well under him. As for the employees, he's no worse than Steve to work for.
16:09 Stupid tire pressure sensor. Stupid dead tire pressure sensor. Stupid *expensive* dead tire pressure sensor.
18:06 I met Steve Jobs once, at a conference. He was at Next, I was at Sun. Our trade show manager had been at Apple. Steve was kind of a jerk.
18:16 Much as I hated working at Steve Jobs' Apple (and the feeling was clearly mutual), I have nothing but praise for the company & its products.

17:29 Today's model is a no show. Always hated being stood up by blind dates. This feels just as bad, and is a lot more expensive to boot.

23:32 Back from Lewis Black. My new conception of hell is trying to get out of Mountain Winery after a concert.
23:38 BTW, Lewis Black is a weird combination of entertaining and infuriating. Which I mean as high praise. If you aren't furious, you're asleep.

09:14 @alwayscoffee I'd go ahead and use it. Even if it isn't recognized as a word, the meaning is obvious and unambiguous. What else matters?
11:57 RT @JonHuntsman: To be clear. I believe in evolution and trust scientists on global warming. Call me crazy. [A sane Repug? Imagine that.]
