  • Did you, like me, play Car Wars when you were younger? Ogre? You need to see this: http://t.co/FQQ5bfc5 @SJGames #
  • It looks like some kind soul left an Amy Pond LEGO figure on my desk.. #
  • Do you know what I hate most about social media? Everyone telling me what my views should or shouldn't be. #
  • Upped my pledge for @SJGames OGRE Kickstarter for the third (and last?) time. Amazing project!! #

  • Seriously, why haven't the Powers That Be done a #firefly kickstarter? Let us prove we will pay for it! #
  • InvaderCon, or summer Olympics? Only one will be back in a few years! #
  • ?????????? #

  • The entire office is being punished because someone cooked fish for lunch. Seriously, you can smell it downstairs... #
  • Not only have I had serious security problems running vBulletin boards, now I can't even make a change to my company's account... #
  • Sitting in the chair at the dentist, getting numb. Not comfortably so, though. #
  • Dental visit complete, though I will be numb for hours yet... #
  • Still somewhat numb, most of it is gone. Starving. #
  • Last chanceto get in on the @tmbg instant fan club for 2012. I was in for 2011 and it was amazing! You will be sad if you miss it! #
  • Got my #dwarffortress rewards in the mail the other day. Awesome! http://t.co/7s0z6kY7 #

  • Listening to some @mickpuck Waterboys right now. It's good for the soul. #
  • Thanks for the junk mail, Apple. You know, I really don't give a flying rat pigu what music came out today. I get my music from Amazon. #
  • Upped my @sjgames OGRE level at Kickstarter because it's going to be awesome! #
  • Why does my test MSSQL server have 97Gb of transaction log files? It's hardly ever used! That's 3x the size of the data.. #
  • On 144.200 USB in Cd'A area for the KARS Wednesday night round table. #hamradio #
  • And another Wednesday night round table wraps up nicely. Working the upper-sideband was a lot of fun tonight, even if it was just local. #
  • Slept almost 7 hours and only woke up once. Best sleep I've had all week! #
  • New employee starting on Monday? Do they think I grow computers and software licenses on trees?? #
  • Worked half the day in the server room. Pretty sure I started getting testciciles. #
  • The @AvatarsOfThey borrowed all my stuff #

  • I can't be the only one that wants to build a #dwarffortress amusement park with the new mining carts... #
  • Tabletop gamers may want to check out @SJGames OGRE on Kickstarter: http://t.co/8tCSbbg5 #
  • It would be epic if @rifftrax took on Metropolis. #
  • Wow, robot Hel in Metropolis looks like the first Cyberman. #

  • We just keep getting more snow... #
  • Well that was the poorest quality presentation of a movie I've seen in years, nice job Regal Cinemas Riverstone.. #
  • Thanks to fellow #hamradio enthusiast @G7IGB for the FF! #
  • Cafe Rio in Cd'A is an acceptable replacement for the sadly missed Cafe Chulo. Plus, their mint limeade is delicious! #
  • I hung a 20m extended double zepp in my backyard today, only about 20 feet up though, no way to get higher right now. #
  • Watching me some Thundarr the Barbarian now. He was cooler than Conan. #
  • Just finished testing my new homebrew 20m extended double zepp antenna, then was talking to my elmer on 10m and got great copy. #hamradio #
  • My wife is at SakuraCon in Seattle this weekend with her friends. I hope she's having fun without me... #

  • Dwarf Fortress has consumed three hours of my morning.. #
  • I just said something I thought I'd never say: "We *only* have a hundred megabit Internet connection." #
  • I just bought a turntable for use with all my @tmbg Instant Fan Club 2011 and 2012 vinyl! #
  • Down another pint of the ol' A-, two more and I hit 5 gallons. April 1 is my 8th anniversary of being a regular blood donor. #

  • I just threw some chicken breasts on the Traeger grill. Tomorrow is ribs and potatoes! #
  • 784 day uptime on my server. I hate to kill that, but it needs a reboot... #
  • On the air at 144.200 USB for the KARS Wednesday night round table. Haven't heard anyone yet, but it should be starting any moment. #
  • K7ID round table is sounding grand on the band.. #
  • K7ID's Wednesday night round table is winding down. Using SSB on 2m keeps a few people away, but it's fun. Next week is 10m! #
  • I could not stop myself from continuing my @tmbg IFC membership for 2012, and upgrading to super-president level. This is beyond awesome! #

I used to blog pretty regularly but for the last several months have really fallen away from it. So here's a review of what's been going on at Casa de Cord:

    I was elected to be the Executive Director of the Kootenai Amateur Radio Society for 2012. Mainly because I was willing to serve. This is the 40th anniversary of KARS' founding. We have some fun stuff going on this year, and the big Ham "holiday," Field Day, is coming up in June.

    Tonight I was part of the KARS Wednesday night round table on 144.2 Mhz (upper sideband). The round table has been a fun radio activity and doesn't take much of my evening.

    I've been busy at work and at home, and when I have time I like to play a few games. Mostly Dwarf Fortress and Towns.

    I'm very comfortably settling in to being a Dvorak typist, but frequently have to switch back and forth at work. All my home systems stay in Dvorak mode unless my wife is using it.

    I just finished reading ]]> http://bogomip.net/blog/2012/03/21/whats-up-lately/feed/ 0 Twitter Weekly Updates for 2012-03-18 http://bogomip.net/blog/2012/03/18/twitter-weekly-updates-for-2012-03-18/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=twitter-weekly-updates-for-2012-03-18 http://bogomip.net/blog/2012/03/18/twitter-weekly-updates-for-2012-03-18/#comments Sun, 18 Mar 2012 14:03:00 +0000 Scurvy Jake http://bogomip.net/blog/2012/03/18/twitter-weekly-updates-for-2012-03-18/
