  • Another day of wonky AC at work, but the portable AC is cranking here at the help desk. What fun. #
  • Joshua Kadison up on iPod. Whatever happened to this guy? Off to Google…. #
  • Pondering lunch. Wegmans today I think. #
  • Wolfmother’s “White Unicorn” up on iPod. This song is so reminiscent of Styx, especially the beginning guitar riff. #
  • Scrabulous addicts on Facebook – it’s now called Wordscraper. Search for it and add it, and we’ll get our games on again! #
  • Does anyone like old O.A.R.? Reggae-ish O.A.R. versus new O.A.R. that sounds like every other guitar rock band? #
  • Just about time to get out of here and get the kid. Yeehaa… #

  • At work. AC malfunctioning, but help desk has its own portable AC unit, and in its own room. We are cool, the rest sweat! #
  • I like to play air drums when stopped at traffic lights, and like it when people see me do it. It brightens their day to see me going nuts. #
  • “Hotel California” up on iPod. Still one of the best rock songs ever written. #
  • Pondering what to make for dinner tonight. Trying to remember what’s in the freezer. #
  • Nj folks -if you want some local NJ news you should check out Ledger Live – daily videocast from Star Ledger. http://ping.fm/K1fgR #
  • Sometimes I wonder if folks think I am a magician. Like I can fix their computers simply by uttering “A la Peanut Butter Sandwiches!” #
  • @bpende @jerseytodd – JerseyTodd, Zombie layer: “So…uh….let me pick your brain about that accident you had…..” #
  • This new Candlebox song is pretty rockin’. Surprised at them having new stuff out. Thought they were gone. #

  • Fought losing battle with easy set pool yesterday. Ring is dried out and brittle and cracking. Duct tape held some,but really need new pool. #
  • American Heartbreak’s “Last OF Superheroes” up on iPod. Great tune. #
  • “Experimental Film” by TMBG up on iPod. One of my all time fave TMBG songs. “I don’t know what makes your face implode….” #
  • Much better day today than yesterday. Will fight with pool a bit more when I get home. #

  • A new week. Cranky and anxious today. #

  • Mediocre mood made worse by argumentative caller to help desk. #

  • Mornin’. Have “Sailing” by Christopher Cross as my morning earworm, thanks to @PWFenton and his sailing story on his latest podcast! #
  • Breakfast done. Listening to Push My Follow #11 #
  • Mosquito bites on my hand, just below the knuckles. So annoying. One of those blood suckers must have gotten in the house last night! #
  • Interesting concept for an online radio station – I Hear Dead People. All songs featured have at least one band member dead. http://pin#
  • Link to I Hear Dead People: http://ping.fm/AEzgp #
  • Ok it’s lunchtime. Wegmans. Salad. Yum. #
  • I didn’t know Chris Farley had a younger brother – Kevin Farley – also an actor. I guess he’s going the Jim Belushi route. #
  • Great Friday song up on iPod – Fishbone – “Party at Ground Zero”…. Nothing like some good ska to get things rolling into the weekend! #
  • Sweet! Cake coming to the Starland Ballroom in October! #

  • At work, listening to latest Bitterest Pill. @DanKlass talking about Neil Diamond cover bands. Really funny. #
  • Is anyone having trouble with Weather.com’s iphone specific page? I open it in mobile safari, and it redirects to regular mobile site. #
  • URL is http://ping.fm/Z4KEY #
  • I tried clearing cache, cookies and history to no avail. #
  • Put on @adamcurry ’s latest DSC but I am feeling like it’s no longer the “podcasters’ podcast” anymore. Too much politics. #
  • Can someone with an iPhone 2.0 go to http://ping.fm/Z4KEY and tell me if it is iPhone specific site that you see or standard mobile? #
  • I think Weather.com sees Safari under 2.0 software as not an iPhone. If so, need to let them know. #
  • @alderfearn Thanks for the info! #
  • @istarman: Yes, they do, but only because they can’t keep their own DB straight. Why should we as users have to to that work? #
  • Listening to @Coverville while working. #
  • Oy vey. Twitter. Come on now guys. Get yer act together. #
  • Lunch time. Sandwich at my desk, with podcasts as a side. Yummy! #
