| 12:39 | McCain will allow DADT repeal over his dead body. Which doesn't seem like much of a stumbling block, does it? |
| 12:44 | This upcoming iPhone app has me... intrigued. Scroll down and you'll see what I mean. http://bit.ly/fO9Vox |

| 09:42 | Done voting. Guess that means no more phone calls from pleasant young women until this time in 2012. |
| 09:43 | RT @JohnRossBowie: Cali: if you've got kids, do the right thing. No on 23. Please. [Or even if you don't.] |
| 10:40 | @JustaSunGod Did, did, did, did and did. Okay, only did it once. But that's enough, right? |
| 11:56 | Every time I read a #w00tstock account like this one from NYC, I'm glad I wasn't there. http://is.gd/gCWYL Okay, that's a complete lie. |
| 17:24 | Christine O'Donnell may indeed be a witch. She's just not a very good one. |

| 15:54 | RT @paulandstorm: [P] PTERADUCKTYL #syfymovies [More like Donald or Daffy? My vote's for Daffy.] |
| 21:14 | Packed. Laundry done. (Yes, in that order.) Still 36+ hours before I head east. I hate waiting. |

| 07:53 | Beautiful morning in Santa Rosa. Think I'll explore for a while. |
| 13:19 | “Governor [Christie], stick to the truth, there’s a videotape.” Oopsy. http://bit.ly/97GNWV |
| 14:18 | Most excellent point by point takedown of NOM's attack on Prop 8 verdict. http://bit.ly/9nnP7c |
| 16:29 | DE Tea Party Senate candidate is opposed to masturbation. But she still qualifies as a whack job, right? http://bit.ly/bEK2Vi |
| 17:06 | @scapersuse Knock 'em dead, Suse! |

| 10:33 | Say a word of respect to the late Morrie Yohai, one of the inventors of the Cheez Doodle. My orange fingers thank you, Morrie. |
| 18:08 | That medical coverage I applied for a few days ago? Got lost in the ether. Back to square one. Damn Internets! |
| 22:33 | Packed & ready to go on a quick overnight to SLO. Maybe I'll find something to photograph on the Central Coast. Possible, right? |

| 08:32 | Dell learns what every politician discovers: it's the coverup, not the screwup, that gets you every time. http://bit.ly/bBMUVK |
| 08:36 | AZ Gov claims illegals are going around beheading people. It's like she wants to kill tourism dead. http://bit.ly/d4IA7Y |
| 09:07 | On waterboarding as torture, NYT calls a spade an entrenching tool. That's called balance. http://bit.ly/bFWpb4 |
| 16:09 | Shooting at Mission San Juan Bautista with my Lensbaby. Strange and liberating to know all the pictures will be crap. Which they were. |

| 06:28 | RT @tomtomorrow: Thomas Friedman's column this morning one of vilest things that vile man has written in a long time. http://nyti.ms/alyYFu |
| 08:32 | Just dropped car at the Toyota dealer. 80k service plus however they resolved the uncontrolled acceleration problem. |
| 08:52 | Thanks, @sandrift. Usage graph at att.com tells me I'll be okay with new 2GB data limit, even with tethering. |
| 09:27 | RT @JustaSunGod: You've just gotta love HTML http://bit.ly/dgbmsd #NSFW [HTML? Or XML? Yeah, I know that's not the point.] |
| 09:40 | @barryeisler You can check your usage at att.com. Mine stays below 2GB a month. But you can keep the current unlimited plan. |
| 10:12 | Thomas Friedman is "a barely literate cartoon mustache of oversimplification." http://bit.ly/avvqIK |
| 10:19 | @sandrift Are you sure that's really a problem? @meatflag |
| 10:34 | @barryeisler Looks like you have to switch data plans if you want tethering. Which I do. |
| 10:55 | @VictoriaDahl They don't want to make everyone show papers, Victoria. Just those suspicious looking people. You know, not like us. Well, me. |
| 11:08 | BP accounts for 97% of OSHA violations the last 3 yrs, shouts "We're number 1!" http://bit.ly/djYNUm via Daring Fireball |
| 11:16 | @JustaSunGod But not soon, right? |
| 11:34 | NV Gov Brewer claims dad died fighting the Nazis. Where did he find them in 1955 when he actually died? http://bit.ly/95YwIG |
| 12:04 | Via @CaliLewis, the Bacon Moon Pie. http://bacontoday.com/bacon-moon-pies/ (Didn't know there was a Bacon Today, did you?) |
| 17:56 | Finally got my car back. Turns out the water pump was leaking. Luckily covered by my extended warranty. |
| 19:47 | RT @barryeisler: Classic Chomsky video on the myth of the liberal media. http://youtu.be/KYlyb1Bx9Ic |
| 21:10 | @VictoriaDahl Or flouted. He could have flouted her orders. |

| 06:45 | Leaving the Hyatt. Next stop Hertz at the airport. |
| 09:40 | So this is Indiana. Looks a lot like Ohio. |
| 09:43 | For those of you keeping score, Indiana is my 44th state. |
| 10:20 | They have White Castle in Indiana. You have no idea how happy that makes me. |
| 10:26 | Oh, the things I do to myself... http://yfrog.com/bh65nlj |
| 13:30 | Day one of the road trip was not without incident, but I made it to Terre Haute. More adventures tomorrow. |
| 15:16 | Today's lesson: folks in Terre Haute let their dogs run free. Chased by two, pant leg nibbled by one. Good exercise for the heart. |
| 18:32 | Nothing sadder than an in-room jacuzzi and no one to share it. *snif* |
| 18:33 | @TomMartin_KY Only cutting through the eastern corner on my way to West Virginia. |
| 18:35 | @lara_adrian Thanks for the shoutout, Lara. Glad you liked the RT Book Fair pictures. |

| 07:14 | What to say about a friend getting his own trading card? Romance writers are weird, but I bet you knew that. http://bit.ly/daU9Zt |

| 10:41 | On my way to Moscone for Wondercon. Wondering if I should... |
| 17:11 | Back from Wondercon. Miserable drive down 280 in the rain. But it was worth it to visit with Virginia Hey and her keeper, Jean. |
| 17:17 | @VictoriaDahl I know I'm late (blame Wondercon), but I vote #1. If you could get the slight smile from #3, you'd have a winner. |
| 17:43 | Passover means yet another run of The Ten Commandments. Did you know it was an anticommunist rant? I didn't. http://huff.to/aK3TcB |
| 19:05 | My first experience with Windows 7 on a borrowed laptop. What the *frell* were they thinking? |
| 19:33 | RT @ebertchicago: Molly Ivins on a Pat Buchanan speech: "It probably sounded better in the original German." |

| 06:52 | @chrismarquardt Bunch of 16s and a couple of 32s. Don't want to have to stop shooting to change cards. |
| 10:55 | If a Bloody Mary is bloody because of the tomato juice, wouldn't a Bloody Mary without alcohol be a Bloody Virgin? |
| 10:56 | RT @BreakingNews: Smithsonian rejects suit worn by O.J. when he was acquitted of murdering his ex-wife and her friend http://bit.ly/amXFKr |
| 13:36 | Having lunch at my local sushi place and looking out at a real Noah's Ark of a storm. |
| 14:32 | Got an email at lunch from Citibank Fraud Detector Van. Raced home, called and discovered all's well. What did they think they saw? |
| 17:23 | Re: my credit card fraud warning, wonder if this is the reason: http://bit.ly/ayT1Lr My MobileMe acct renews in a little over a month. |
| 18:57 | @VictoriaDahl Okay, Victoria, how in the world do I unwatch that? I feel so... so dirty. http://tinyurl.com/ylxvrnm |
| 21:17 | I just generated a #TweetCloud out of 3 months of my tweets. Top three words: check, accepted, gallery - http://w33.us/6u31 |
| 21:20 | One warning if you try that #TweetCloud thing: even if you uncheck the box, it still tweets the result. Bad #TweetCloud! |
| 21:31 | Think Air Traffic Control's the one part of travel that's still run by adults? Think again. http://bit.ly/a3bdaT |

| 12:06 | For those who wonder what a Flash-less world could look like, a small example: an Imperial Walker animated in CSS. http://bit.ly/9DL20s |
| 13:50 | Chair of Joint Chiefs has a Twitter account, and he isn't afraid to use it. (DADT must go.) http://bit.ly/akgqA8 |
| 15:53 | How much does it bug McCain that the world has passed him by? On gay soldiers and so much more... |

| 10:41 | Today's plan: shooting and wine tasting. For now, watching Kristy get styled. Talk about gilding the lily; as if she could get more awesome. |
