Successful outing to SuperFranks to celebrate Miles birthday with friends. It’s basically a classed up Chuck E. Cheese with a Starbucks.
I hate to suggest that these gentlemen are losing today, however @Mike_FTW and @joshacagan aren’t winning either http://tinyurl.com/cqaxtn
In SF for a meeting. Sunny but cold. Not Chicago cold but definitely not flip-flop weather.
Our boy Miles is 4 today! Wishing him Happy Birthday here is pointless (until he learns how to read, use a computer & visits archive.org).

The boys are sick, one has the stomach flu. I feel like I’m on the bomb squad, won’t know if I cut the red wire til tomorrow.

It says “hugs” up by the ears? No? Ok I’m bailing then.
3-year old looks over my shoulder as I respond to Plinky users on Get Satifaction, “Is that a cupcake? Can you write cupcakes are so yummy?”
“George Bush is the old president. What color is his new house? His old one was white.” Miles (3) is full of them this morning.

Drew and I just built a Wright Brothers plane made of toothpicks and Popsicle sticks for a diorama. Can I get a what-what for hot glue guns?

Who would be in your hip-hop posse? I’m hoping Zach Galifianakis is available: http://plinky.com/links/1Nr

This is what @gshellen ‘s typed to me in an IM when his head hit his keyboard “nn n njjbhv”.
It has now come to the walking around like an expectant father portion of this project.
These balls are exhausting.

Watching a CNN feed of a helicopter taxi around an airfield doesn’t feel like progress, but it does feel like change.
Still at the office, just dl’d ‘Reasonable Doubt’ by Jay-Z and the Notorious BIG to help the team power through. I think it’s working.
I think I speak for all of us working today when I say, “Screw all of you having fun at the beach or glad handing with Obama.” #jealous
I forgot a “have” in my last tweet. Good thing Martin didn’t make the same mistake. “I A Dream” is a different speech.
At work today. I like MLK’s dream, but I an additional, more personal dream, of actually shipping a product.

Saw “Bedtime Stories” with the kids, it was like “Don’t Mess with the Zohan” minus the penis jokes. Saw Zohan as an in-flight movie. Meh.
Outlasted @stevemcghee at @rklau ‘s poker night. Can’t. Hold. On. Much longer…
Body shop called to say they broke a tail light while painting the bumper that was scratched by the dealership. :\
I was just informed that I am not being paid by the tweet. Seriously? Well then, it’s been nice folks.

I’m already following @lancearmstrong and @davesfoley but to complete my personal Trifecta we need Simon Le Bon on this deal.
Thinking of starting an AM morning show called “Hyperbole, Fear & Schlock”. It will be just like every other morning show minus the weather.
Board meeting tomorrow. I’m looking for photos to spice up the presentation so it doesn’t become a bored meeting.

Whilst I love our HP OfficeJet M3027 multifunction printer at the office, I want to drop my home HP OfficeJet 7410 MFP from a great height.
The last tweet was intended as a compliment to TweetDeck. Sometimes I’m as clear as mud.
