@godlessgirl actually, no. doesn't have to be religious tho. can be the attitude one takes towards oneself, or towards loved ones. in reply to godlessgirl #

@kitchenmage re diabetes vs celiac. hate 2 say it, but wd guess that there's fat, age, class, & race issues in play. http://bit.ly/cdiEnU in reply to kitchenmage #
@bhenick my maternal grandfather was NUTTY about punctuality. "early is on time, on time is late." tough on kids, but a good lesson. #
@kmcdade http://bit.ly/d8MM9q 🙂 looks good from here! in reply to kmcdade #
@kitchenmage reading bio, I wouldn't think of him as a blogger first…wondering if it was printed in book as "ice cream" – editing FTL? in reply to kitchenmage #

blog post: #xtracycle A++ would ride again – http://bit.ly/cMvEPO – btw, this is my 4th post this week & I have 2 more drafts. a record? #
@kegill @deandad has written quite a bit about the for-profits over the years. IIRC that's one of his previous gigs. in reply to kegill #
@dylanw I think I need to turn this into an essay. "even the one-man-band needs a cms" #
@dylanw even if you're still the only one updating the site, it's way easier/faster to update content. #
@dylanw protip: what does your boss (or their boss) worry about re: website? how does CMS make that better? #
@dylanw depending on the CMS, availability of commercial and/or community support. #
@dylanw easier to ensure design consistency across many pages. #
@dylanw easier to handle emergency situations: someone else posting, or you posting from any computer anywhere. #
@dylanw able to add features you don't have time/chops to do yourself. higher likelihood of secure/solid PHP (etc) than homebrew. #
#ff "marketing: ur doin it rite" edition: @wsdot @salalcu @einmaleins @xtracycle @Nerdmeritbadges @ScrivenerApp #
happy to see that @salalcu is taking the ribbing well. 🙂 #
awesome. RT @SalalCU: @rshevlin @MonGinder @mmpartee @epersonae Well, at least we don't ask that you call us…… Tim? #
@MonGinder @mmpartee @rshevlin http://bit.ly/6JJqJt (short answer: 24MPH) in reply to MonGinder #
heard him just a few weekends ago! RT @dylanw: RIP Daniel Schorr, the last of the giants of radio journalism. http://n.pr/cgoM1q #
@dericjones @Matt_Vance alas, not on @twinstarcu website. (long story) but yeah, it's pretty weird. #
morning quite productive so far, tho spent too long chasing issues for autozooming gmap view. (didn't work. ended up with weird workaround.) #
@mental_floss lots of cute…but that last one is a little too much "can't sleep clown will eat me"! in reply to mental_floss #
@Oakwright when I was in college, watching X-Men on TV was essential part of Sat mornings. (still have crush on wolverine.) in reply to Oakwright #
@dylanw if you need help on "CMS is awesome" speech, let me know. I got lots. (actually, should write that down anyway.) in reply to dylanw #
(funding probs in the empire?) RT @itsjustbrent: That's how you rob a bank. http://flic.kr/p/8kZUex #
@mmpartee altho as weird names go, Salal's not bad. in this neck of the woods (so to speak) anyone who gardens knows that particular shrub. #

@kitchenmage I'm liking brizzly for multiple acct posting. (love posting as @olylibfriends!) #justahappycustomer in reply to kitchenmage #
also, I hate the fax machine. "if it doesn't say anything, then it went through." WTF? #
know those tasks you do so rarely that you feel daft trying to remember instructions you got last time? yeah, that's what I'm doing now. #
@emmettoconnell it's entertaining to try different pieces: so far I've gotten DFW, King, LeGuin, Doctorow, and so help me, Stephanie Meyer. in reply to emmettoconnell #
@emmettoconnell yep. I set up an account recently to play around with it, but haven't done anything yet. in reply to emmettoconnell #
@rshevlin well, I for one have always appreciated your service to the under-researched. 🙂 in reply to rshevlin #

@dylanw I thought it was netscape 4. then again, that's from the time when I'd blame N4.7 for ANYTHING. in reply to dylanw #
74F and sunny? why yes, I believe it is time to take a break. #
paging @eoctrl: any way to get info about @TRLDistrict library visit stats by day of the week? (esp from 2008 or earlier) #
one last sunday CMT memory: dropping a paper cutter on my toe. really. (the handle fell off.) I'd almost forgotten that was a sunday. #
@jillheather but our local library system seems to have these moments of cutting the nose to spite the face, so…. ::shrug:: #
@jillheather dunno. not a librarian, so I couldn't say. in reply to jillheather #
now I'm feeling all nostalgic for summer sundays working at @CMTacoma: reading, doing homework, making ice cream in a coffee can. #
@jillheather as for sundays in summer, I think the #s aren't there. people go outside. (sundays working at children's museum were dead.) in reply to jillheather #
@jillheather in our system's case, it's all about budget cuts. we used to have sundays in winter, but now no $$$. still have some evenings. in reply to jillheather #
RT @jessamyn: RT @wawoodworth "One item (real or imagined) that you would want your library to have. GO." Me: sunday hours. [me too!] #
@Oakwright make virtue of necessity & add ice? in reply to Oakwright #
RT @FinancialBrand: RT @jrothmanshore BofA is advertising lorem ipsum online http://bit.ly/cm05Om Hope they got a good CPM rate #

@dylanw afraid I agree. looking at actual budget docs, the basic problem is that revenue is down. in reply to dylanw #
@olybuzz just a reprint of http://bit.ly/b8IRUA I think. (saw on front of actual paper, too.) in reply to olybuzz #
things I'm noticing about http://bit.ly/dwZMnv – a lot of hate/disdain for poor people and state employees. 🙁 #
finding http://bit.ly/cTKQIq weirdly addictive. wish they had a graph (etc) of current budget tho, might cut down on uninformed ideas. #
@pat_ramsey glad to hear you are ok! in reply to pat_ramsey #

@dylanw there's a reason they call it "going to the salt mines" – see http://bit.ly/cm7klD for example. #

@dylanw no child nodes left behind? 🙂 #
@Oakwright thanks. #
@zacpalmer thanks…no hate here, just cranky. 🙂 (been trying to remember the line from the neighbor abt constr site reaction.) in reply to zacpalmer #
