EMACS TAKES ALL THE FUN OUT OF INTERNATIONAL CAPS...
arielwaldman: RT @qdot HOLY SHITTING FUCK IT'S INTERNATIONAL CAPS LOCK DAY http://capslockday.com
adora: @arielwaldman CAPSLOCK IS FOR WIMPS! HARDCORE GEEKS SHOUT WITH THE SHIFT KEY!

Dearest Reader,
I am not in Texas.
I am not driking avocado margaritas, taking ecstacy, or having run ins with the law. I do not have a MacBook Air, I do not use my iPhone in flight, and I have never, ever, called myself a Web Communities Strategy Developer. Or a Social Web Applications Design Strategist.

Me: And then murdering the first 3 people I see on the street.
Me: And then watching The Princess Bride.
Shawn Morrison: So you have plans.
