  1. @ron_miller I expect so.
  2. Maybe it’s the head cold, or the fatigue; maybe I shouldn’t share this. But these children. Are. Driving. Me. Up. The. Wall.
  3. About 13 years ago I produced a comedy show called "The Occasional." itunes.apple.com/us/app/funny-o… Ahead of my time, @funnyordie.
  4. @Veronica @ryan Mazel tov you crazy kids! (Everyone should get engaged in Brooklyn, it's the Right Thing To Do.)
  5. @GlennF @lexfri If that's supposed to be a "selling point" I don't think it means what you think it means. :)
  6. @katierosman LOL. Not to discuss the procedure in front of the patient, but @thomasbeller is welcome to contact me directly. :)
  7. Hope my advice to @thomasbeller via @katierosman was constructive. Not in print: how to set Word '11 to .doc format. online.wsj.com/article/SB1000…
  8. I'm the guest expert for the WSJ's "Tech Makeover" today (paywall) online.wsj.com/article/SB1000…
  9. @GlennF Stand back, citizens! CLARITY MAN has your data well in hand!
  10. @jperlow @flargh @stevensande Meanwhile the WH has apologized for the term. washingtonpost.com/politics/obama… But we still owe China "sorry" for Foxconn.
  11. @jperlow He's already here. Look behind you.
  12. @flargh My wife’s grandfather & great-grandfather were both in the German army (WW II & I respectively). It’s complicated.
  13. @flargh @stevensande True. But that’s another matter.
  14. @stevensande Whoever wrote the speech made a mistake -- just like whoever proofread Romney's app made a mistake.
  15. @stevensande I understand why the Poles are upset. But identifying an entity by "where it is located" isn't wrong. Maybe insensitive.
  16. @stevensande Uh, not unless he wanted to also piss off the Germans. "Nazi death camps in Poland." But again I refer you to Foxconn example.
  17. @stevensande Just checking: you still refer to Foxconn’s shops as “Chinese factories” right? Because they’re actually Taiwanese.
  18. Some folks are bummed. (@ EWR Terminal C w/ 9 others) [pic]: 4sq.com/KaIUKs
