Installing iLife & iWork ’09
Not sure why, but I have this habit of wandering around while I’m on the phone.
Saw a woman using a pay phone today. How retro.
If @beep had a full beard, he’d be sitting across from me in the subway.
@rogieking re:UTF-8 – http://www.joelonsoftwar…
@Malarkey Feel free. #avatarpermit
A full day of QA ahead - loading up on coffee.
My mouse is steadily getting less and less mighty.
After two weeks of visitors, our apartment is now very quiet.
A bit ridiculous when a website is so slow that I can dig a phone number out of my file cabinet faster than I can look it up on the website.
@raywilliams Double FAIL. ;)

Watching Defiance at the Ziegfeld
@97bottles Not going anywhere. And I’ll be patient, I promise. ;)
@97bottles Probably the JS. ;)
@97bottles Figured as much - just know that the only time I’m likely to use it is when I’m out, and it runs too slow to do that right now.
@97bottles 97bottles.com is just painful to use on an iPhone, which is where it would be most useful.
@greghoyboy Johnnie Walker Black Label, by any chance?
Good, won’t have trouble hearing on the subway with this pair. Related: don’t try them at full volume.
New Apple In-Ear Headphones just showed up. Going to compare to old headphones now.
@vpieters Were you doing that to reload and bypass the cache (multiple F5s)? If so, just use Ctrl + F5 next time.
Think I just found the error in my code that was baffling me for quite a while.
@jkrums was just on MSNBC….
Quite the phenomenon watching @jkrums’ followers jump up by the hundreds every few mins after posting the first Hudson plane crash photo.
@jlbruno I live very close to where the plane went down. Scary to think what would have happened had it crashed into Manhattan.
@GraphicsGeek I do now. :) Still would prefer the @name to go to the tweet list, though.
Wish Tweetie would go right to the latest tweets when you select an @reply. Always want that, to see what is being replied to.
Waiting to get a table for Mexican. Fresh guacamole will make it with the wait.
Just booked tickets to go visit my sister and her fiancé in 2 weeks. Excited.
Related: I love living in the city. Travel is so much more accessible than when I lived in a small town.
Looking for flights to Madison, WI to visit my sister, who just got engaged.
Damn you, Visio. Damn you to hell.
If Visio locks up one more time….
Converting a Visio document to PDF takes FOREVER.
Also, Chase’s mobile site sucks.
Chase’s idea of an iPhone app is a splash screen to the mobile chase.com. That’s the best you can do, Chase?
This headache doesn’t bode well for dodgeball tonight.
@jlbruno DM me your email and I’ll hook you up later on tonight.
In line for Artichoke pizza.
Checking out @97bottles
@dkr Looking forward to checking it out!
@pierskarsenbarg Indeed. Always nice to see old friends on Twitter!
@markboulton Does that mean you’ll be inclined to throw a few mistakes in, just to be able to use the errata page? ;)
At the rate this line is moving, I’m not sure I’ll make it to the counter before the Post Office closes. Only an hour left, after all.
@somerandomdude Hoping lots of people will check it out – it’s great work. :)
My buddy @somerandomdude re-launched his personal site today. Pretty impressive, check it out: http://somerandomdude.co…
This is the page you get when you click the “Download Messenger” link? Really? http://tinyurl.com/624ya5 #mysterymeat

@snookca Totally agree – I ALWAYS find myself skimming when reading on the screen. If I want to read something in it’s entirety, I print it.
@rogieking I’ve been using it for a while now, and am fairly happy with it.
@orderedlist Great post introducing HTML 5.
Why would any code editor not have “Show Line Numbers” enabled by default? Coda, I’m looking at you.
Has Tweetie has been choking lately on loading Tweets for anyone else?
Yeah, so make that 5. He’s singlehandedly losing the game.
And yes, watching slightly delayed on DVR. ;)
Was debating about tweeting how bad Delhomme is playing. Then he threw his 4th interception.
@greghoyboy No, but there were 2 more trees dumped on the ground right outside the building door.
Someone left their old Christmas tree just sitting in our elevator. Asshat.
Crushing IE bugs….
Since I’m eating the last roll today, I used my herculean strength to tear open the bag instead of untie it.
Wife showed me something in Victoria’s Secret mag - first thing I noticed was the lack of an fi ligature. Quite the juxtaposition. ;)
@cameronmoll My votes: 1. Eiffel Tower, 2: Tower Bridge, 3: Colosseum, in that order.
My votes:
@jlbruno Was anyone ever perfectly happy about the DRM’d music?
@cowpiesurprise Here’s hoping you wear boxers. ;)
My order from Every Man Jack came with a hand-written note and sample lip balm. Nice touch.
@dkr Have Rum and Cokes, of course!
Upgrading my iTunes library. Haven’t bought much music there, so doesn’t cost much….
Checking out @ryanirelan’s eescreencasts while on the subway home.
Having pizza at Luzzo’s.
@ilovetypography I believe the video will be posted right after the keynote, but still….
MacRumorsLive has been hacked….
Engadget’s coverage seems a bit snarky, so far.
Macworld time….
@greghoyboy That many? I’m not sure I’ve ever seen it work….
Reading @gruber’s Macworld predictions. Always a good read.
Sending off a fairly long email about how I got my start in web design and recommendations for breaking into the industry. Hope it helps.
@97bottles Smithwick’s is great on tap – you can find it at most Irish pubs. Also, Samuel Smith Nut Brown Ale is a fantastic bottled beer.
Servers are down, calling it a day.
@alabut I did think of one thing – I always design everything in 72 or 96 DPI and convert to 300 just before printing. Perhaps that’s it?
@303zachary Ah, now I got it. For me, it boils down to my first explanation – enjoyment vs. addiction. I wouldn’t regularly smoke anything.
@303zachary How so? I’m not following.
@alabut What version of Fireworks? I seem to remember older versions being a bit more buggy than CS3/CS4.
@303zachary I wouldn’t even consider smoking cigarettes. It’s a “smoking for enjoyment” vs. “smoking as an addiction” thing.
@jcroft Beejive
Considerably increased the usability of my sandwich by removing the tomatoes.
Just purchased all of @ryanirelan’s EE screencasts to prepare for creating my first EE site.
LMAO – with that last tweet, it now says I’m a VOLCANIC 140°F. They give themselves quite a bit of relevance, I’d say.
My Twitemperature is a RED HOT 129°F (54°C)! http://twitemperature.co…
Dreamt I went to San Francisco for a visit. I should make that a reality.
@Brilliantcrank Will do. Any specific suggestion? I’ll report back in a few weeks.
@Brilliantcrank Plan to have my first cigar while a good friend of mine is here in NYC. Already drink scotch, and only 24. Hmmm….
With that, I’m 0 for 2 with my playoff picks. (Won’t say who won yet in case anyone is watching delayed on TiVo)
Chargers defense is doing their job. Offense needs to stop turning it over in the red zone, now.
@mezzoblue getYear is deprecated in favor of getFullYear. As you found out, some browsers return the number of years since 1900 for getYear.
@mezzoblue You probably know this and were just making a point but getFullYear() is what you want.
@greghoyboy It is now….
Went two for two in today’s volleyball games today.
On my way to play volleyball. Two matches today.
@alabut I’ve never had any major problems. That said, I only use it for stuff that will be printed with digital printing.
@zeldman Thanks. Figured as much, but wanted to make sure. I’m hoping to attend one of the conferences this year, but not sure which yet.
@zeldman Does your Twitter discount code have an expiry?
@danrubin Make sure you wipe off the spit that is sure to have accumulated because your face was too numb to feel.
@nathansmith Congrats!
Party still going strong.

Homemade guacamole is a great way to ring I’m the new year.
Happy New Year Twitter peeps!
Moving on to the scotch….
@beep Fantasic. I will add that to the list to try.
Mini skirts are great, but c’mon Manhattan - it’s 1 degree with the wind chill.
@beep What kind of scotch? I’m just starting to get into it.
@elijahwood Welcome to Twitter!
Finished with work for 2008.
@drinkerthinker You should have put a stop-payment on the check after about 3 months of it not being cashed or acknowledged.

Putting a tree in a bag….
I wonder what would happen if I said ‘no’ when asked if I could be placed on hold?
not having any luck trying to download Espresso….
Using DD_roundies to round corners in IE - seems to work fairly well. http://tinyurl.com/5hdw4o
Is it even possible to drink out of a Dunkin’ Donuts coffee cup without burning your lip?
Just got my first renewal notice for Macworld – subscription doesn’t end until October ’09. Gimme a break.
@jcroft c’mon man - where were your legendary poker chops? ;)
@greghoyboy LOL - the guy. Seemed a bit stalker-ish to me.
@jlbruno What kind of car did you end up with?
@greghoyboy But that first contestant was a bit creepy….
