- 19:25 I'm off to Westport, Mass for Thanksgiving. Happy Thaksgiving, everypeople! #

- 08:03 Sarah Palin's supporters: the most hysterrifying evidence yet (from @theyoungturks) www.youtube.com/watch?v=27QTX46XNLM #
- 10:53 Rep on @onpointradio Says Cuba hasn't improved in embargo so it must be maintained. This is me screaming. CLEARLY five more years will help. #
- 23:37 I have a bowl of cookie dough in the fridge and a pot of thickening rice pudding on the stove, so, yeah, I guess I'm set for Thanksgiving. #

- 08:52 Heard about running barefoot on NPR podcast yesterday, considering looking into it in future--or just using these things bit.ly/FHd4l #
- 18:23 Sad that Carl Kassel is going to retire, but thrilled that he'll still be on @waitwait. #
- 18:29 Just told Mom and Calvin about Carl Kassel; @CalviNation was confused for a second as @waitwait IS Carl's main job. I mean, it is. Right? #
- 19:13 @CMahoney415 I would wear them in a second, just to see what they were like. Ugly? Maybe. Awesomely dorky? Hell yeah. #
- 19:37 RT @darcygarrett This woman brilliantly rips into Kirk Cameron. tumblr.com/xjv47rd08 Calvin mom and I just had a great laugh-Thanks! #
- 00:03 A variety of searches fail to unearth ANY Tom Waits mashups. Curses on you, Intertubes! You fail me yet again. #
- 00:30 Just watched last week's Big Bang Theory. I love whatever the dynamic is between Penny and Sheldon--it was real cute. What a great show! #

- 19:22 Andrew McMahon is on The Daily Show...why are they saying Jack's Mannequin and not Something Corporate? Isn't that the more famous projecct? #
- 19:39 Apparently Andrew McMahon was freaking 19 when he wrote "Konstantine". How is that possible? The song is pure sappy beauty and wonderment. #
18 November 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 20:19 The only artist to last 25+ years without becoming even temporarily irrelevant is Tom Waits. Was it that he sounded 60 in 1972? Discuss. #
- 21:04 @_doodlebop You could! Does he sound 60 on his debut album? Has anyone else survived since the 70's without a weak period? Probably--BUT WHO #
- 21:16 @_doodlebop BUT WHO? And don't say Barry Manilow because he was never relevant. #
17 November 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 17:54 "Who Are You" by Tom Waits kills me every freaking time--"I did my time in the jail of your arms" FUCKING EPIC STUFF RIGHT HERE #musicmonday #

- 14:59 @Matt_Silverman WAAAAAAAAY to talk to your freakin' @lfmccullough, man. :p #
- 15:28 If you think Sarah Palin is a person of substance and insight, #youmightbeaconservative #youaremorelikelyclinicallyinsane #
- 15:34 If you think 9/11 was an inside job, #youmightbealiberal #butthatdoesnotmeanyouarenotcrazy #goaway #
- 15:40 If one of your career goals is to become a member of NPR, #youmightbealiberal #iknowitisoneofmine #ilovenpr #
- 15:48 If you think thousands of medical bankruptcies a year is acceptable as the status quo #youmightbeaconservative #
- 15:49 If you want government-run healthcare #youmightbealiberal #youmightbeonmedicare #youmightevenbeaveteran #whoopstheregoesyourwholearguement #
- 15:54 If you think asking which newspapers you read is a gotcha question #youmightbeaconservative #youmightbesarahpalin #youmightbeilliterate #
- 16:03 If you don't think Darwin was a BAMF, #youmightbeaconservative #

- 12:23 For some reason WRNI has replaced my stories with (admittedly bitching) jazz. Also, does anyone else refer to @waitwait as "my stories"? #
- 12:39 @_doodlebop Um @waitwait is awesome-you should listen to it every week IRREGARDLESS of the guest. Though I was gonna send you the Rufus info #
- 12:44 Also apparently WRNI changed their frequency since yesterday. False alarm. #everyonestoppanicing #
- 12:52 @_doodlebop My love of NPR makes all things--grammar included--secondary and tertiary priorities. #
- 17:15 I'm now reading "Omnivore's Dilemma". Have apparently given up on narrative fiction...at least until Palin's "Going Rogue" comes out #ohsnap #
10 November 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 11:34 Happy Wiedervereinigung Day everybody! I think I'll celebrate by watching "Goodbye, Lenin!" later. #
09 November 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 08:28 I am not sick. I have merely modified my voice to the point of it being completely unrecognizable. Much like Batman. #
- 08:48 Oh snap, @AlanGrayson! bit.ly/15cDcw Lawyered! #
- 20:04 Zoe and Chris are playing "Watchmen". Wonder if any others of Time's 100 Greatest 20th Century Novels have been made into video games... #
08 November 2009 @ 08:01 am
- 13:17 Just found a job on Craigslist offering "Compensation: 25-30K an Hr" Ummmmm false? #
- 17:50 #NameThatFilm @ebertchicago It's Pearl Harbor--I never saw it and don't know why anyone thought it would be a good idea... #
07 November 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 08:19 @CBSNews @ABC @cnnbrk Tell your audience the truth about the public option! Every poll shows AMERICANS WANT THE PUBLIC OPTION #cnnprotest #
- 19:18 ! @CBSNews @ABC @cnnbrk Tell your audience the truth about the public option! Every poll shows AMERICANS WANT THE PUBLIC OPTION #cnnprotest #
- 22:54 Just finished Chuck Klosterman's "Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs". Was expecting humor; was not expecting such interesting ideas. Recommended! #
06 November 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 18:31 Hey everyone! Call Sen Lieberman and ask him to support a public option. Good? Good #
- 21:15 Oh no, Michael. Oh no, oh no. #
- 21:42 Just saw the first holiday ad of the season. It is official. #
05 November 2009 @ 08:01 am
- 09:20 Sarah Vowell interview on WRNI this morning during my comute! Best comute EVER! "The moral here is not to be a Pequot in the 17th century." #
02 November 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 15:22 RT @ebertchicago Sneak peek at "Transformers 3" j.mp/2nuqDW #
- 16:13 I wonder how many people there are who mainly buy candy right after Hallowe'en and Valentine's Day. I'm kind of a sucker for 1/2 off signs. #
- 18:15 I need to make plans that have less to do with running a marathon and learning Spanish and more to do with finding a job and moving out. #
01 November 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 13:17 Not sure if I'm going out or staying in yet. Of about costumes. Or about anything. Hmmm #
- 14:13 What are your favorite horror movies? Mine are Se7en, Misery, original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, 28 Days Later-very different, all compelling #
- 15:29 Fact: Bach's Prelude to Cello Suite #1 actually sounds kinda good even in MIDI form. bit.ly/3uPX7D #
- 01:36 I would have gone out tonight, but I didn't have a stitch to wear. #
31 October 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 01:02 Watched The Invisible-this guy is left for dead, his ghost apparently falls for his attacker, vice versa; she dies for him. No ghostsex-LAME #
30 October 2009 @ 08:00 am
- 10:52 I just emailed Joe Lieberman reminding him that we here in Connecticut want the public option. So if he changes his mind...you're welcome. #
27 October 2009 @ 08:01 am
- 00:04 Cornell West was just on Colbert. What an effing character, oh man. I can't even describe him. Pure oldschool 1970's righteous class. #
