My first three Twitters or Tweets
Apr 28th
I grabbed a snapshot of my first three twitters or tweets as people are calling them. My first and oldest tweet is at the bottom.
Look at the dates between my second tweet and my third tweet. Now that’s commitment to a joke. I wanted to tweet several times before that but resisted. Then I forgot about twitter, then I wanted tweet again. I almost forgot to post again on the same day. Now I’ll be using it all the time.
How I Met Your Mother
Apr 1st
Yesterday Karen and I were watching the latest episode of How I Met Your Mother. During the “The Bracket” episode “Anna” who thought Barney was Ted Mosby said she had created the website http://tedmosbyisajerk.com/. I immediately paused my TiVo, Karen gave me the look because she knew I was going to look it up and see if it was real (they rarely are). To my surprise the site was real and had a couple of pages including the letter Barney left for Anna and he forgot to sign it Ted Mosby.
The site was very funny. Karen and I got a huge laugh out of it. So last night I decided to send an email to the person who registered the site and tell them how much we enjoyed it.
Today at 4:28PM my iPhone rang and the display said “Blocked”. I never get Blocked calls so I decided to see who it was. To my surprise is was Carl MacLaren one of the show’s producers and the person the show’s bar is named after “MacLaren’s Bar”. How awesome is that? He thanked me for my kind words and appreciated the fact that I went to the trouble to let them know I enjoyed the website. Then, and this is even funnier, because it’s obvious to anyone who reads my email signature that I’m in IT, Carl MacLaren asked me for tech support. Now that’s cool. Since I am very familiar with the question he was asking I was able to answer it quickly.
Carl MacLaren, I want to thank you for giving me a story that no one will ever believe because of what day it is.

“It’s in my purse” What does this mean to you?
Apr 29th
Have you ever ask a woman for something and she said “It’s in my purse?”
To me this means searching the house for her purse because you thought you knew where it was. Then looking for it in the regular drop zones.
Success, I’ve found the purse. But it’s empty because she’s changed purses again.
You know you’re drinking too much coffee when…

My wife uses Quicken for all of our business and personal finances. She will occasionally use a feature called “Scan for Bills” where the software will look through all of our accounts and try to determine if there are any payments made which occur frequently enough to consider a regular bill. When doing a search for that today, she noticed that my favorite local coffee shop, Coffee Crossing, came up as one of the suggestions for a regular weekly bill.
One large blended caramel latte, skin milk, no whip cream.
What can I say, it’s that good, you should try it.
Funny, Very funny.

Last night after finishing some shopping I was leaving Target. I was behind two middle age ladies and we were walking past cars in the lot.
As we walked a car near the ladies honked it’s horn and startled one of the ladies. It’s was hard to tell where the honk came from.
As I passed the same car the horn honked again, the ladies turned around to see why someone was honking there horn.
About that time were all started laughing, she pointed into a van I was standing in front of.
There was a large brown labrador retriever sitting in the drivers seat and every time someone would walk in front of the van he would honk the horn.
I watched him honk the horn at two other couples.
Very funny.
This is funny, from Popeye’s
Nov 29th
I went to Popeye’s today for lunch with my friend Shawn. He didn’t order a meal just a couple individual items.
So when his order was ready the guy at the register brought his order to counter and yelled through the store “Two Spicy Breasts”.
LOL, it was pretty damn funny.
I keep going through my house yelling (with an Italian accent for some reason) “Two Spicy Breasts”.
Never really gave it much thought.
Sep 24th
Karen and Allyson have been gone for the weekend and noticed something that I never really gave much thought.
When I’m alone, I sing a lot and talk to myself. And it’s not even songs that I sing, it’s whatever I’m doing at the time.
For example on the way down stairs I’m singing “I like going down the stairs, yes I do, yes I do. I like getting to the bottom.”
If someone had pointed it out before today I would have said “No I don’t” right before saying “Yes, yes I do, yes I do”.
