  1. And another RIP for today: the legendary Doc Watson. Totally different world from Leo Dillon, but still sad.
  2. RIP Leo Dillon, illustrator extraordinaire. blastr.com/2012/05/legend…
  3. Got to attend a free advance screening of #Battleship tonight. It's no #Avengers, but was better than I thought it would be. Worth a look.
  4. Am I the only one bothered by the fact that the Writer's Digest tagline ("Write better, get published") is a comma splice?
  5. @TamelaBuhrke Thanks for the signal boost on the #CarrollShelby tweet!
  6. RIP Carroll Shelby, father of the muscle car era and creator of the Shelby Cobra. It's a very sad day for us car buffs. goo.gl/aHj8M
  7. Thank you, @BarackObama, for having the common sense and courage to stand up for the rights of same-sex couples.
  8. Overheard at work, regarding an aging basketball player: "Back then, he was young and viral." How about "virile" instead?
  9. At the bank, wearing one of my Pink Floyd shirts. Young teller says, "Cool shirt! My Mom would love it." #OfficiallyOldNow
  10. If left-handed pitchers are southpaws, are right-handed pitchers called northpaws?
  11. If someone invented incense specifically for use in a yard or patio area, would it be called outcense?
  12. Adios, Dick Clark. The last few years were sad, but your Rock and Roll years were industry legend.
  13. After two years of off-and-on troubleshooting, I may have FINALLY resolved a network issue at work.
  14. Yahoo! Finally getting #ICS on my Nexus S 4G today! Only six months after it started appearing on other phones.
  15. @AuthorElyseD Thanks for the follow!
  16. Today I sent a polite email to the editors of an online magazine, asking the status of the story I submitted to them in early December 2011.
  17. This one's for you, +David Buehrer. kickstarter.com/projects/16132…
  18. I just learned that my mom's nursing home has shifted into hospice mode due to her rapid decline. Probably won't be long now. :-(
  19. Got the old gas tank out of the #Fairlane and the new one mostly in before I ran out of daylight. Sometimes I wish I had a garage again.
  20. Finally got the funds together to order a new gas tank for the #Fairlane, and it arrived today. Looking forward to driving Daisy Mae again.
