- 23:57 Instead of flying out Canadians in Cairo to London, wouldn't it be easier/cheaper to bus them to Israel (or to the ferry point for Jordan)? #

- 13:08 As much I want to laugh at Peter Mackay for forgetting about WA and OR, I didn't know Arnold S. was no longer Governor of CA! #Maritimer #
- 13:58 Egypt is burning. Well, not quite, but 4 channels adds a sense of urgency. twitpic.com/3u863t #
- 22:14 @ShireenJ More likely a wireless router issue. Try changing wireless channel and moving router 1 foot from anything electrical. #
- 22:21 The solution to Egypt's high unemployment? Build more pyramids! Like Vegas, good to keep things fresh. :) Dude, you are 82, time to retire! #
- 22:24 @ShireenJ Well, wireless routers don't work any better over there...and if the issue is caused by CITY TV, then it wouldn't be better there #
- 22:27 The Tunisians and Egyptians have inspired me the protest the lack of democracy at work. My boss acts like a dictator. (sarcasm) #
- 22:29 I love when people try to influence the company I work for. Private sector companies don't listen to individuals, just focus groups. #
- 22:33 @ShireenJ That pretty much proves it is NOT a DSL issue. Your phone cable isn't shared. Wireless channels and CITY computers: yes. #
- 22:37 @ShireenJ Well, the Internet in general slows down in prime time, but since you are in Toronto and so is CITY, I doubt that is issue. #
- 06:37 @ShireenJ Unless there is a major outage, Toronto Internet traffic stays in Toronto. That said, possible CITY's servers are somewhere else. #

- 08:39 "one can tell where a train is headed by the direction from which it enters the station" latest gem I found on Wikipedia. #
- 08:41 Dear Airtran, why don't you fly out of Burlington, Vt anymore? And please consider a late day flight out of Bangor, Me. #
- 08:42 @LetoriaDiva FYI, hotels there are pricey this time of year. #
- 10:44 "Saudi Arabia anticipates a rise in domestic energy demand, which within 20 years , approaching its current output." hmm #

- 16:27 Pris dans la tempête? Pas grave, tou.tv (Radio-Canada) a maintenant une application iOS ! twitpic.com/3tyblw #
- 16:37 French language TV and a metric converter in the top 3 free apps. Proud to be Canadian. :) twitpic.com/3tye95 #
- 16:40 @dpjanes Bandwidth is free until you have to add capacity. Then it is freakishly expensive. Then it is free again... #
- 17:16 Why MTV ! USA would buy a remake of Skins instead of the original UK version is beond me. twitpic.com/3tyop2 #
- 17:19 ...Example 2. I think the actress playing Effe was 18 when this was filmed. twitpic.com/3typgw #
- 18:21 @dpjanes Name one innovation that ever came out of Rogers Cable (Ted died richest man in Canada). #
- 18:28 @CBCNB What kind of poutine? Acadian (aka râpé) or Quebec (cheese curds and fries)? #

- 08:49 I guess George Bush Sr. is safe... twitpic.com/3s020b #
- 22:49 ... The ALC site outage is a conspiracy of central Canadians that want to keep Atlantic Canada out of the 50 million jackpot. :) #

- 04:44 Dear Moncton, if that 4:40AM flight just woke you up, it was a Boeing 727-200 (tri-jet) flown by Kelowna Flightcraft Air Charter Ltd. #

- 19:10 Yesterday's Modern Family was laugh out loud funny. If you are in Canada: j.mp/aaatv . A shame City TV couldn't find advertisers. #
- 19:19 @draper1206 You need a trip to Britain if you think there is a "British" accent. They vary incredibly from one region to the other. #
- 20:08 With the $15 for 12 issues promo, I have to wait for the paper version of the Economist (that I don't want) to activate the iPad version! #

- 20:18 @larrylarry You don't have to talk to your boss all day to know what he wants. Ditto, politicians don't have to talk to all 31 M Canuks #
- 20:23 How can Twitter spam bots exist for 5 hours without being eliminated by Twitter? #
- 20:25 @larrylarry Well a scientific poll of 1000 Canadians is almost as good as asking all of them. But the published margin of error is important #
- 20:31 @kurtpeacock I wonder if taking the free Wentworth Valley road would have been better. #
- 20:34 @eriklanigan Tacos sans Mexicans is the norm here in Moncton. Non Kentukens also sell chicken and don't get me started on pizza #
- 20:40 I know my life sucked in Toronto. But I still can't wrap my mind around the fact that I gross less than 30 grand a year here in Moncton. #
- 20:48 To try and get some value out of federal taxes, watching InSecurity on CBC site: bit.ly/fVfgI0 #
- 20:58 This puts fighting over Israel in perspective twitpic.com/3ps1vg #
- 21:09 ...Dam, even per person, Australia and New York Stat! e have similar GDPs. #
- 22:00 I declare CBC's InSecurity must-see-TV, Naked Gunesque entertainment. cbc.ca/insecurity #

- 23:37 Wow, that last tweet was my 7,777th ! #
- 23:41 @ShireenJ As long as TV stations are subsidising the cost of online content, we'll have to put up with it. Web only content kind of sucks. #
- 00:15 @ambermac Since Target will be _replacing_ most Zellers, I'm not sure the iTunes and Hulu wish is à propos. #
- 00:18 @ambermac Um, Dunking Donuts and Jersey Shore in Miami Beach could easily pass as Canadian (for Quebeckers). #
- 00:29 @ambermac Jersey Shore is excellent. Like The Simpsons but with real people. The Miami version is especially relateable to Canadians. #
- 00:32 If words had no meaning, what would you tweet? Don't worry, unlike _some_ people, I won't shoot you if you can't answer something clever. #
- 00:34 ... In case that was too obscure, the suspected mass murderer asked the fallen congresswoman a similar question a while back. #
- 00:36 I deal with so many customers with obvious mental health issues that it is scary to think some of them might have guns. #
- 02:10 My iPad cost me $ 44 in New Brunswick sales tax. So I'm reading a library eBook (via the Overdrive app) to get my money's worth. #
- 02:11 ... Considering how many ebooks are unavailable because borrowed, I'd say the New Brunswick ebook service is quite popular. #
- 02:21 ePub New Brunswick library ebooks are now available via the Overdrive iOS app. Using your computer to download elibooks was so last year. :) #

- 02:06 I read Russia's entire Wikipedia page to try to gain insight into the winning of tonight's game. Nothing. #
- 02:11 "Say hi to the people on Facebook for me" (Facebook is banned where I work). #
- 02:14 I feel guilty about tonight's game. I stopped watching after it was Canada 3-0. #
- 02:25 With all these tablets à la iPad, Galaxy and Xoom, time to invest in toilet seat makers. #
- 02:26 Hard to believe this time last year the iPad didn't even exist yet. #
