Dumping lumber off at the South Transfer Station is the most inefficient workflow I’ve ever witnessed. #cantgetthathourback
Being a goy, I’m thankful for Pesach. It forces me to leave work early, wrestle on the crispy lawn w/ my boys, + take days off mid-week. #fb
Methinks another script for The Mummy films is writing itself! A “Door to Afterlife”? http://bit.ly/axi46t
Superb. RT picture of Bobby Fong, president of Butler University… says a lot about Fong! http://twitpic.com/1bk153 /via @rebaaron
On our walk today, my wife continued to marvel at Julia Sweeney and her splendidness last night at #wits. An absolute delight.
Julia Sweeney is an incredible performer. I regret not attending one of her monologues.
If I’m bound to end up being a version of my father, how will I know who I will be? I didn’t know him, but I think I like him.
Hi Julia! #wits
Hitting #wits tonight w/ the Z’s. Hoping we get seats on the floor + not in the balcony; me always get sooo schleeepyyyy under the overhang.
Saw part of this on the tube last night. Oy… What’s happened to this man? RT Palin Lends McCain Aid http://nyti.ms/93KOQ3 /via @nytimes
Way too fun! RT @softweets Stellar video: a Hasidic wedding band covers @LadyGaga’s “Paparazzi” + substitutes lyrics: http://bit.ly/c0k9LZ
I actually just asked Bella (@srgilliss) if “beerfest” was one word or two. Context: discussing “Hot Tub Time Machine.” #fb
OK, the @facebook post insights per post (# of impressions with percentage feedback) embedded in the stream is super handy - and unexpected.
Yes. I’m putting off writing script for today’s record. #fb
True. Said the same thing of Cusack to colleagues yesterday. RT @ebertchicago My wet review of “Hot Tub Time Machine.” http://bit.ly/8YdFxq
Re: last tweet. Right sentiment, wrong string quartet. Strike Parker, substitute Johannes.
RT @iA First iPad newspaper design presentation tomorrow. The only way to see the designs in real aspect so far is making print outs… :-(

At the WCHA finals + envy those fancy Zambonis. My exp. driving at the Wayzata rink wasn’t as smooth. That’s right, I blame the machinery.
Thanks to my sister-in-law (@msfeland), I now have a voice to pitch for a show about humans, animals, and meaning w/ a stirring backstory.
Finally took the time to stop following my mayor — too many tweets about delegates + glad-handing and not enough about the job and issues.
I’m much too boring + mainstream, but I do enjoy reading pieces like this and learning a little somethin’. http://bit.ly/dcX5zM
I now fully believe in the power of spring + a long walk along Bassett Creek w/ family, + Minneapolis’ favoring of all parks south of 394.
Proactive orchestras = solid customer service. The insight that a friend asked another to go is worthy of building on: http://bit.ly/9AAVhW
Seliger’s photo of Rielle Hunter w/ her 2-year-old girl anchoring the GQ piece is distasteful. There has to be a line — for moms + editors.
Click on the Washington Times’ religion editor byline and you’ll learn more than you might expect: http://bit.ly/ct3qeV
Reading the “Ramayana” to L-man. Digs it. Hindu stories of war, meditation + cosmic justice w/ fab illustrations. http://bit.ly/c5MOK0
Yes, we actually drove to Northfield and rented a room at the AmericInn. Now, margaritas, summer sausage, and swimming. Later, Indian fare.
My sister-in-law, @krebsbach’s bride, actually did a cost analysis of riding the train for a family vacation. Whoa.
“I never dreamed that my discovery four decades ago would lead to such a profit-driven public health disaster.” http://nyti.ms/cUUQVn
This flight to Chicago is an absolute nightmare — an elderly tour and spring break tans. Heaven help me; I’ve worked up a lather.
I avoid reading her, but I might have to try this one so I can cringe. RT @RDispatches Islam, Meet Maureen Dowd: http://bit.ly/cugStD #fb
Always nervous + anxious + sleepless before an @softweets production trip, but this one’s big. It’s a mystery, it’s a mystery.
hover from my feet / peer into the depths / that cream-and-berries face / first asleep / rests / mystery in my ability / to recreate my best
3G is saving me from a complete Comcast broadband meltdown.
Laundry, laundry, + more laundry.
Pretty dang funny when I hear the L-man (age 4) tell his mom that her “armpit has a beard.” #fb
Dear NYT Carpetbagger blog. If you can’t add insight to the Music by Prudence oddity, or even acknowledge it, are you really liveblogging?
This is no longer a family show.

“When you put six guys in the finals – that is what you are after, getting six...”
– — University of Iowa Head Wrestling Coach Tom Brands
I suspect a quote like this indicates why he is having so much success as a coach. Of course, he’s emphasizing determination, hard work, and hustle — but, more importantly, performing through executing at your best: “hitting...
