  1. CB2 furniture can be safely assembled while jetlagged. #soyouknow
  2. RT @crumpy And Jack Ryan, too.
  3. Harrison Ford: both Han Solo *and* Indiana Jones. A guy can be more than one iconic hero.
  4. The animated Lufthansa safety video crosses deep, deep into the uncannny valley. I kind of want these zombies to go down.
  5. Trains -- even high-speed ones -- have no seatbelts. I guess because there are no side-impact crashes. *or they want us to die*
  6. My third high-speed train in 30 hours. Huge win. Can't wait for the LA to SF one.
  7. @findsam Your optometrist is a coward.
  8. @truehigh I've already had the first three. So parasitic worm it is.
  9. My eyes are very itchy. Have been for days. #boringtweets
  10. John Resig's Easy Retweet Button looks nice and handy. http://bit.ly/1cliT
  11. Per Pimsleur, I can ask for directions/beer in Mandarin, Japanese and Portuguese. The only fail was Korean.
  12. In the Pimsleuer vs. Rosetta Stone debate, I come down firmly Pimsleur. If you can't order beer by lesson seven, you've failed.
  13. @christineabf Metric. It's Garbage, 2009, and good at it.
  14. @tenaciousN I'd had terrestrial snails before. Better than that, and approaching conventional seafood.
  15. Eating whelk. I had to look it up. Kind of sorry I did.
  16. When traveling abroad, my self-esteem is directly tied to how long I can keep a waiter or cashier from switching to English.
  17. True, but you didn't need to point it out. http://yfrog.com/0gjqgj
  18. @kevwilliamson Have you crossed into the point of exhaustion in which everything is simultaneously hysterical and bleak?
  19. Don't want to brag, but I'm pretty awesome at hide-and-seek.
  20. @hectorcortez I have a team in Manila who hand-transcribe every post and comment on acid-free paper.
