When you don’t make it to the office until 3pm you know you are in for a long day.
Trying to decide if I should watch Generation Kill or just play Call of Duty 4.
In rare form, have sent a link structure out wrong three times. Dumb.

After finding the hole the mice were coming in from and sealing it those little assholes decided to chew through the wall. Oh, it’s on now
Dropping science
Trying to embrace risk.
Have noticed a spike in activity on Facebook recently. For a while it seemed like my newsfeed was dead. Curious about F8 conference.
The mouse that was trying to take over my apartment is now in heaven
Got up before 7am and got a ton done this morning. Doesn’t really make up for feeling lame for passing out at 10pm on a Friday night though
Earlier this week it looked like I would be in China by today. Instead I am heading to Connecticut.
Press Release Mumbo Jumbo
continuations:
It makes sense for press releases to conform to a standard structure including a summary first paragraph and quotes for use in articles. But there is no good reason for the awful phrasing found in most press releases, the insertion of way too many buzzwords, and the use of generalized superlatives. Together they form what I call press release mumbo jumbo. I encourage all...
I wanted to love you Neighburrito but you really let me down.
heading to the gym for sparring
Trying to figure out where I could go swimming.
Just watched Generation Kill. Is it bad that it makes me want to play Call of Duty 4?

I’m disappointed that this isn’t a real band. Andre 3k, Kanye, Fonzworth Bentley…and some other guy dressed in tuxes channeling the Temptations? SOLD.
About to get my data load on.
Had a great breakfast with a representative of the Singapore Media Development Authority. Seems to be a great place to start a company.
Consumptionscape is my new favorite word.
Giving up on even trying to guess what the next few months will bring.
Still grossed out by the mouse that ran across my foot while I was going to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
Rocking a beard until all the bugs are fixed on the new site.
About to catch the ferry to Governors Island
Listening to Bonnie Prince Billy and recovering from a couple hours at the gym boxing this morning.
Had a milkshake, cheeseburger and chili fries for dinner. Braces removal celebration is now officialy over.
Starring at the gum I bought in Japan to eat after I got my braces off. The wrapper is so cool though that I don’t want to ruin it.
Almost ready to give into this Iphone thingy. Don’t tell my N95.

Glad to see not much has changed in my hometown.
There is always someone working on the same idea as you.
Last full day with braces. Hopefully
finally about to try John’s Pizza in the West Village
Just got ripped off by ConstantContact.com because they “suspended” my account instead of closing it. You have to call to close. Lame.
Can’t figure out how to pull a user’s location via the twitter API. Can anyone help?
Of course I find the answer myself two seconds after posting. It’s not listed in the documentation but the API always returns location.
