Ever wanted to hire me but wished, “If only he were smarter, with security expertise, more integrity, and better looking?”
My friend @kyle is available for the 1st time since I've known him, & ticks all those boxes. Total #DreamTeam caliber guy. kylerank.in/about.html 1/2

New book by long-time Linux Journal editor @kyle ."How to Write a Tech Book", a step-by-step guide to technical publishing. (Near and dear to me: there is an entire chapter on how to format code. Trust me, us publishers give bonus points to potential authors who can handle this.) https://www.lulu.com/spotlight/kyle_rankin
@cazabon she thinks they're real too. :)

@katherined I have tea bags in my suitcase as we speak.
A rabbit comes into a shop & asks, "Got any carrots?" The seller answers, "No!"
Next day the rabbit walks in again & asks, "Got any carrots?" The seller- "No!"
Next day the rabbit walks in & asks, "Got any carrots?" Seller shouts, "No! And if you come again and ask for carrots, I'll take nails and hammer you on the wall by your ears!"
Next morning the rabbit comes back & asks, "Got any nails?" The seller- "No!" The rabbit asks, "Got any carrots?"
I'll be here all week.

@mattlanza Eric is making green bean casserole weather analogies. It must not be looking good.
@crredwards the other night my middle-of-the-night Wikipedia lookup was Jane Seymour (Queen of England, not Dr. Quinn). I think it stemmed from some Anne Boleyn conversation earlier in the day. As one has.
It's like Cinemax After Dark but... Wikipedia.
@jzb I'm going to take it a step further-- Stove Top Stuffing is the best dressing/stuffing.
@shawnp0wers @johngreen it appears to be John Green from the past!
@shawnp0wers your northern tip of Michigan inclement weather reminders are on point, my friend.
@shawnp0wers we've not gotten the Green brothers on Mastodon yet? Must work on that.
So I begin Guinea Pigs of Mastodon purely because @garethgreenaway followed me.

OMG I just realized Mastodon is what Twitter would be if it were Canadian
