| 09:42 | Road trippin', across the universe... Today's destination: Palmdale, CA. Then I turn east. |
| 14:44 | Arrived in Palmdale. Weather & traffic cooperated, and there's an Original Tommy's near the hotel. Life is good. Just don't get downwind. |
| 17:23 | Silicon Valley Christmas: giving Flip Video, getting Lightroom & Photoshop. Oh, the joys of employee discounts. |

| 07:17 | Rand Paul supporter who stomped MoveOn member wore Don't Tread on Me pin. Ironic, isn't it? http://bit.ly/dfHEem |
| 09:08 | @sandrift Which #w00tstock did you attend? I've been to two, and would do another in a heartbeat. |
| 09:39 | Yuma County AZ Repugs claim massive voter registration fraud, are determined to be massively full of shit. http://bit.ly/cVK0AY |
| 10:31 | Meg Whitman can't stop talking about how great California was under Jerry Brown. http://gaw.kr/bnJjn5 |
| 20:32 | Don Imus tells Bill O'Reilly he's a pinhead. I find myself respecting Don Imus. Weird, huh? http://bit.ly/druvYR |
| 20:36 | My first studio shoot in a month. That's way too long. Good thing the Arizona Shootout's coming up real soon. |

| 09:03 | I got 40 images accepted to @shutterstock today! Check out my gallery here: http://tinyurl.com/ltgjp5 |
| 10:49 | Just exceeded 10,000 images in my portfolio on @shutterstock. That's one heck of a lot of images. http://bit.ly/d8wvNX |
| 13:20 | Enjoying SJC's free WiFi & Southwest's comfy chairs with AC for my thirsty laptop. |
| 13:24 | Normally I would not desecrate my iPhone. But this has me reconsidering: http://bit.ly/bpYpC4 |
| 17:18 | Ensconced at the Rio. Room overlooks the pool. Sadly, it overlooks it completely. |

| 08:32 | Techi.com literally doesn't understand the meaning of the word literally. http://bit.ly/dlsA1v |
| 13:40 | That study that found 89-99% of BitTorrent files are pirated? Looks like it's a crock. http://bit.ly/bKu9J7 |
| 14:09 | RT @wilw: Memories of #w00tstock 2.4 at #sdcc: http://bit.ly/9M4dda [Wil makes it sound almost as magical as it was.] |
| 15:05 | Webcomic weighs in on anti-Westboro Baptist Church counterprotest at Comic Con. http://bit.ly/bBcIia |
| 19:53 | RT @wilw: I'll be in my bunk. http://bit.ly/bOnrFp [Yeah, what he said.] |
| 20:48 | So. That free "sorry about that" iPhone bumper case Apple said would ship on September 1st? It went out today. |
| 20:52 | Jeb Bush on the campaign trail? I've got the slogan for his presidential run: "I'm NOT the idiot brother." http://bit.ly/cNOfHd |

| 09:44 | American Airlines wants its planes to carry less fuel & make pilots do paperwork to get more. Gee, what could go wrong? http://bit.ly/ap3wbl |
| 12:14 | Stopped at the Palo Alto Apple Store to get a spare battery for my phone. Their line was 4 hours on Thursday. Wish I'd known. |
| 13:36 | @devans00 No line today. No iPhones, aside from the display models, so I just walked straight in. |
| 14:14 | So does this mean we can go back to ignoring soccer for another four years? |
| 15:50 | RT @chrismarquardt: Awesome little iPhone gadget: iPlunge! http://j.mp/c3Qtjn [That brought a smile to my face.] |
| 16:08 | @scapersuse "Revenge is a dish best served with pinto beans and muffins!" #Freakazoid! |

| 07:14 | I love watching Repugs beat up on each other. Who's got the popcorn? http://huff.to/c9nzpN |
| 08:32 | @HappyTinfoilCat I guess we'll see how far dumbth will get you in the AZ GOP Senate primary. |
| 09:07 | I got 13 images accepted to @shutterstock today! Check out my gallery here: http://tinyurl.com/ltgjp5 |
| 09:21 | @VictoriaDahl And here I thought you above that kind of petty jealousy. Counting retweets indeed! |
| 09:36 | Finally caught up with @barryeisler's video interview on @grittv regarding 24 as propaganda and much more. http://bit.ly/cuJj0F |
| 09:45 | Peter Beinart on the Right wing disaster that is modern Israel, and why younger American Jews reject it. I'm with them. http://bit.ly/a5qt0X |
| 18:49 | Someone who understands drilling asks what more we think the President should be doing. Good question. http://bit.ly/bRnvzn |
| 20:29 | Gene Lyons, who wrote so forcefully on NY Times lousy reporting on Whitewater, on their coverage of Richard Blumenthal. http://bit.ly/b4kpfA |
| 20:37 | Why in the world does anyone pay tech industry analysts for anything but comic relief? More accurate to flip a coin. http://bit.ly/aZiy02 |

| 06:44 | Up way to early, and grabbing breakfast before I drop the car off at Ontario Intl. Gonna be a rough day. Short, but rough. |
| 10:02 | SJC. Home soon, but not for long. |
| 11:18 | RT @tinyrevolution: Nice that, after so many years, repealing Martin Luther King Day no longer most embarrassing thing Arizona's ever done |
| 12:13 | Sometimes I hate my life. http://twitpic.com/1ioz53 (This is not one of those times.) |
| 14:09 | Packed for RT & road trip. More or less. But more more than less, I'd say. |
| 14:19 | So buying stolen property (specifically an iPhone prototype) really does get you attention from the authorities. http://gizmodo.com/5524843/ |
| 14:31 | @barryeisler Maybe the larger question is whether bloggers *or* journalists get to receive stolen property without repercussions. |
| 15:18 | Looks like Gawker understands the law about as well as they do journalism. http://bit.ly/bCDvkO |
| 15:26 | @JohnRossBowie It's not that she can't. It's that she won't. |

| 07:57 | RT @ebertchicago: Decoder ring theater. The Masked Marvel is standing by. http://j.mp/97B8AP [Roger's a @Decoder_Ring fan? Me too!] |
| 08:22 | Right wing nutjob who called for bricks through Dem offices over health care votes? Dude lives on govt handouts. http://bit.ly/dgp2HF |
| 09:09 | I got 33 images accepted to @shutterstock today! Check out my gallery here: http://tinyurl.com/ltgjp5 |
| 12:43 | How ironic is it that a report about molestation in the Catholic Church is bylined by Roger Boyes? http://bit.ly/bGAlwL |
| 15:44 | @VictoriaDahl If it's not what I think, then what is it? @barryeisler |
| 16:49 | Am I the only one who read this headline as "the old gang bang"? http://bit.ly/cPtkKE (Must. Delete. Mental. Image.) |
| 22:14 | @reduced Suck? Your podcasts most certainly do not suck. Not even a little. |

| 15:20 | Midichlorians suck. Explanations don't suck, but midichlorian-type explanations surely do. http://bit.ly/bIG3R5 |
| 15:24 | Problem with the Internet is that it remembers the crap you write. For example, Cliff Stoll in 1995: http://bit.ly/bVVanJ |

| 05:51 | SoCal school district bans dictionary that defines oral sex. Now the kids'll have to learn about it on the streets. http://bit.ly/6wBY6m |
| 08:51 | Okay, this is weird. Retro weird. I want so much to buy this album, and I don't even own a turntable! http://bit.ly/8DNTPz |
| 09:21 | I got an image accepted to @shutterstock today! Check out my gallery here: http://tinyurl.com/ltgjp5 |
| 09:31 | Jon Stewart: "Corporations can merge with one another. Gay people can't do that; they can't get married." |
| 09:38 | Jon Stewart: "It's interesting. Especially in South Carolina, you keep giving them a chance, and they keep f*cking that same horse." |
| 11:25 | Maudlin in the extreme, and yet I can't turn away... http://dead.atyourage.com/outlived |
| 11:27 | RT @wilw: The URL says that this is an awkward family photo, but I say it's AWESOME: http://bit.ly/9Ya6Vk [Yeah, you WOULD think that, Wil.] |
| 11:33 | Another example of the clueless news media in action: http://bit.ly/aBAeCt They're not shouting for jobs, Roland. Jobs, not jobs! |
| 11:56 | @Ashley__Graham Pay off the credit card. Think of all the interest you'll be saving! |
| 12:12 | @kaseandannasmom Offended? Not at all. But distracted's another story. |
| 12:18 | @kaseandannasmom Sorry? I don't think you're *really* sorry. I bet you're as pleased as you can be! |
| 14:08 | This is not a joke: The History Channel orders a show starring Larry the Cable Guy. Repeat: *not* a joke. http://bit.ly/bIw75s |
| 14:24 | "Is this Harris? I'm calling from AT&T." "About U-Verse?" "Yes." "The answer is no. And please stop calling." "Removal'll take 30 days." |
| 16:38 | FYI, any statement that assumes that entire groups think in one way is racist on its face, and so is the speaker of that statement. |
| 16:54 | "Subject: YOUR SCAM VICTIM COMPENSATION PAYMENT" But I'm not a scam victim! Not yet, at any rate... |
| 17:25 | If Derek Powazek's right about what Apple might announce tomorrow, I'll be in line for one: http://powazek.com/posts/2234 |
