  1. I hate Verizon. $30 Upgrade fee, offered me free overnight shipping, but only last week. Trying to wring every last $$ from its customers.
  2. Today's National Lost Sock day! So here's to you purple argyle! In my thoughts, Red & White Striped! And I couldn't forget you, Snoopy sock!
  3. Alas, Maurice Sendak. Where the Wild Things Are taught me that even bad dreams places can be beautiful. Will read it to my children tonight.
  4. Happy Birthday Gideon Sundback! You've caused me many moments and frustration and despair! #Googledoodle
  5. #pottermore is live. From now on, you can just call me SparksSpell10837. Almost makes me wish I was a bigger Potter fan.
  6. No #Pulitzer for fiction this year? I guess new fiction this year was just Fifty Shades of Bland.
  7. Well, so much for Google not being evil. Thank goodness indie bookstores have other good options. publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/in…
  8. Such a tease Google! I really want this! google.com/js/reallyadvan…
  9. False history gets made all day, any day, the truth of the new is never on the news #AdrienneRich
  10. I'm looking for a program/utility that will convert ONIX files to something readable by a human, CSV, XLS. Does something like that exist?
  11. Just generated a #TweetCloud, my top words are: time, bowl, super - w33.us/bzh4 (twitpic.com/900rbz)
  12. Current trends in YA publishing depress me. Who will tell my children that they are ok even without any mysterious superpowers?
  13. Do you think #Tebow found out about Jersey Shore and changed his mind about coming here? #timsanity
  14. #Tebow Welcome you to New York. Wanna join me and my family for Passover Seder? I think you'd love some matzah and Gefilte Fish. #Timsanity
  15. Judy Blume's YA novels being released for the first time as ebooks tomorrow. I may have to go reread Are You There God Its Me Margaret.
  16. Greatest horoscope I've read in a long time. thecopia.com/conversations/…
  17. All these people mourning the end of Brittanica in print - how many of them actually opened a volume of it in, say, the last decade?
  18. @GalleyCat Anyone remember the "frog" entry in World Book encyclopedia? Acetate overlays showed frog's insides. #1977technology #Brittanica
  19. Just another sign of ebook dominance or a sign of the death of civilization? Brittanica to stop printing. money.cnn.com/2012/03/13/tec…
