  1. Survey option: "I would like to be able to access and control my range/stove/cook-top/oven through other devices such as my phone." - WTF?!
  2. From just few sprigs to flowering mini-shrubs (and many tasty porkchops in between) in just 6 months. The lovely sage! twitter.com/LLiu/status/19…
  3. @BofA_Help Why does _incoming_ wire have $12 "processing charge"? It's just computers doing the work, yes? FedEx doesn't charge recipient!
  4. @BofAHelp Perhaps it's time to update your Twitter profile photo - it looks a bit blurry on the iPad3's hirez screen. :-)
  5. Late night. No attendant at gas station. Perfect opportunity for me to perfect the $#.01 fill-up to earn up to $250 reward bonus.
  6. Thought FSA claim deadline had passed on Apr17, so was v-happy 2see remaining $hundreds dirdep'd 2my chking acct just in time for gr8 wkend.
  7. 90F?! Heat wave thru weekend. Not humid: good. But pollen everywhere: bad.
  8. [Rev not profit but still] RT @levie: Microsoft makes $17B in a qtr. Slightly disproving my theory that they were going out of business.
  9. Colon hydrotherapy??? I guess Groupon has run out of normal businesses to run coupons for. twitter.com/LLiu/status/19…
  10. Took 45 mins to get thru Bay Bridge toll jam. WTF?! Should've taken BART as I usually would.
  11. Having lunch at the top of the world! Okay, just Lake Tahoe, but the vista is still quite amazing. twitter.com/LLiu/status/18…
  12. @LoungeFlyZ It's 28F right now but should warm up quickly with sun blazing. No clouds. Not much wind. And best of all, not crowded. :-)
  13. Lovely view of Lake Tahoe from our townhouse rental. Gorgeously sunny Easter Sunday! Will go to Mass & then the slopes. twitter.com/LLiu/status/18…
  14. Behind-the-scenes look at Facebook release engineering arst.ch/t7k via @arstechnica [Mad props to FB for leveraging BitTorrent!]
  15. OMG! The ever finicky camellia got rooted in my aeroponics cloner after 5 tries! Now need to get more cuttings! twitter.com/LLiu/status/18…
  16. No online withdraw option at smithbarney.com - WTF?! Need to call my "financial advisor" who's only available 9-to-5. F-ing lame!!!
  17. After 4+ months of nurturing, plumeria cuttings are finally growing! Leaves are lovely, but flowers should be lovelier. twitter.com/LLiu/status/18…
  18. Latest endeavor: hydrangea mania! twitter.com/LLiu/status/18…
  19. Amazing power of aeroponics! Even a small leaf can be nurtured to grow lots of roots! Looking 4more plants 2propagate. twitter.com/LLiu/status/18…
