“Kick off the New Media Expo conference experience with a PT-inspired workout with U.S. Army Soldiers.” No thank you, I hope to survive the conference.
Spent the first seven hours of 2014 playing poker, so I guess that counts as being surrounded by loved ones.
Actual birds
There are flamingos at the Flamingo. That’s new.

Not sure WTF happened, but a round of applause for @verso, @bynkii, @Angry_Drunk, and @flargh for a podcast that should still exist.
Mac community is sometimes in dire need of satire & bad language. Too bad we can’t have nice things. @flargh @bynkii @verso @Angry_Drunk
Someone at CES is demoing a “book sterilizer”. I was unaware that book disease was a thing.

@jeffporten They obviously want to keep all those books kept in close quarter in libraries from breeding, or they could threaten Google.
You have to wonder about a company which uses the brand names Hercules and Thrustmaster.
The Black Dog
Facebook friend pointed me in the direction of this. I’d say this covers quite a lot of it, but I’ve never liked the dog metaphor—a dog is friendly. It’s more like the Black Yog-Soggoth or the Black Impenetrable Space Alien.
@jcenters That’s not anti-Communist, that’s Cthulhu.

The tongue on the SpaghettiO represents how the US licked the Axis powers.

Bumped a stack of books on the nightstand as I was putting down keys. Small black object fell out. “So that’s where that review phone went!”

@jessespector Dude, you better be talking about the Michael Douglas movie.
- Jesse Spector:
@jeffporten I wasn?t, necessarily.

- Wil Shipley:
@Moltz Also they REPLACED the sister with an actress who looks NOTHING like her. WTF, ARROW?

@wilshipley Ah, the lawyer?s sister, not Speedy.
- Kevin van Haaren:
@Moltz @wilshipley speedy’ s a girl now?
@kvanh @moltz @wilshipley My vote is for “still addicted to heroin.”
