- Woo hoo! @rachelbancroft gets clear liquids today, and might get to go home tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
# - Took the kids for a much needed visit to see @rachelbancroft in the hospital today. It’s only been a few days, but we miss them! #
»
- Won’t be tweeting much for a couple of days. @rachelbancroft is in the hospital. She’s doing OK, hope to be home soon. Not a fun weekend… #
- Thanks for the kind words. We’re being well taken care of, and she’s doing much better. Thank you for thinking of and caring about us!
# - I’m glad St. Vincent’s hospital provides free wifi, but the login/capture page is janky (esp. on iPhone), and FTP, SSH, and VPN are blocked. #
- @PDXsays See my tweets from this morning. @rachelbancroft is in the hospital here. She’s doing OK, we hope to go home in another day or so. in reply to PDXsays #
- In other news, I have a really hard time typing the word hospital. I don’t type it very often. My fingers keep wanting to type hopstial… #

- Excellent - Logitech is going to make a Bluetooth adapter for its Harmony remotes, so they can control a PS3. Yay! http://tinyurl.com/cv3lzh #
- As busy as I’ve been today, you’d think I’d have accomplished more. But any day that starts with a trip to Home Depot for new tools is good. #
- I admit it. I love Papa Murphy’s pizza. The chicken garlic and Cowboy are staples in our household. #

- Hmm. It seems that my Notes and Shared Items from Google Reader are no longer coming through as comments in… http://ff.im/1DhRk #

- I am absolutely NO good at *teasing* info about something I’m really excited about. I just want to blurt it all out!
# - @jojohnson I can’t say right now, but as soon as it’s ready, you won’t be able to get me to shut up about it. All in due time…
in reply to jojohnson # - Wow. Corn bread catfish nuggets in the JF5 cafe today. I’ll pass, though. http://twitpic.com/294uq #
- Does it bother you to hear people say “iTouch” instead of “iPod touch”? It drives me crazy. Not because of loyalty,, but because it’s wrong. #
- I think it’s a character flaw I have. I get annoyed when people say things are just not correct. Not “elevated stress level”, but annoyed. #

- @kellyrfeller Welcome to the world of iPhone! One of us!
For complete Twittering bliss, you simply MUST get and use the app Tweetie. # - My friend Kevin (@sourcecode) at work got one of the new iPod Shuffles. It’s REALLY tiny. Wow. Pics with my USB drive: http://bit.ly/4M26o #
- Also, I tested the new Shuffle’s inline headphone controls with my iPhone 3G. As expected, the click works, but up/down doesn’t. #
- @googlevoice just read (text to speech) the name of an incoming caller to me. I don’t think GrandCentral ever did that. Neat. #
- @mike_strock You still haven’t been upgraded to Google Voice? Wow. I thought everyone would have been done by now. in reply to mike_strock #
- @mike_strock It’s just luck, trust me. There’s nothing special about me.

- Totally buried in meetings today. So much fun stuff to talk about! iPhone OS 3.0! Fun stuff I’m working on at work! Alas, I meet instead. #
- @Stammy Oh, man, that sucks. I got really sick at SXSW last year. Hope it doesn’t become a geekademic!
in reply to Stammy # - I take back my earlier complaining about meetings. Turns out these meetings were really productive and interesting. Not all meetings suck! #
- @mike_strock No, Mac OS X cannot run inside a virtual machine. Not sure if it’s a technical reason (related to EFI vs BIOS?) or not. in reply to mike_strock #
- Oh, wait. Today is St Patricks Day. And me not wearing any green or drinking. What a bum I am.

- Dear Friend at SXSW: If you were to snag some cool laptop stickers for me while you’re there, I’d be eternally grateful. Love, Josh.
# - Great video review from @TapCritic of the new Boxee remote iPhone app’s gesture-based interface. Can’t wait to use this. http://bit.ly/oX9Z2 #

- Beware the Ides of March. They are currently attempting to blow my house down. Questioning the whole “house made of sticks” thing… #pdxtst #
- @turoczy Wait, what? @missrogue used my Flickr page in her SXSW preso? Pics or it didn’t happen!

- Going to the the store for supplies to celebrate Pi(e) Day. I love nerd holidays!

- @alexcrawley You are correct - I put Cadbury Mini Eggs (those things are like crack!) in the chocolate pie. Turned out not so tasty, though. in reply to alexcrawley #
lol, 96. You doubled my 48.
I got 48: Lightly Nerdy
“Somewhat nerdy. I mean face it, you are nerdier than about half the test takers.”
Now im gonna go cheat
I also got lightly nerdy…
I am your god, bow down before me, all you lesser mortals!
If only I had the periodic table posted at my desk, I might have been a Nerd God,too.
Me….88
This must be log scale nerdness, as I figured that you were at least twice as nerdly as I am.
I always disavowed being a nerd. I have no GPS, so I should lose 50 points right there.
You fully embrace being a nerd, so I
wonder what would happen if I tried?.
Probably end up being Stephen Hawking crossed with Emo or something.
I’m only at 65%. “Low Ranking Nerd. Definitely a nerd but low on the totem pole of nerds.”
So I guess that means I shouldn’t have any friends since I’m not nerdy enough for nerds but too nerdy for non-nerds.
my nerd score was 98
I got 97 on the test,
80 and high nerdy, but I didn’t take anything, honest! ;~)
