did I tweet this yet? New video – Maximizing Application Performance with Sun Studio – Oracle Solaris Video http://bit.ly/akeA5T #
@mschoenu unfortunately, the avg cost of living in Italy is higher than the avg salary, if you can get a job at all. Lovely country, but… #
Heartbreaking when people who wd & want to be great parents cannot be. Perhaps worse that many who are so bad at it so easily become parents #
@TheWorldCalls If you still need help w/that Italian phrase, try @DeirdreS @seancarlos @rosso #
@mkapor recently was on a flight w parents who apparently believed in let it cry itself to sleep. NOT acceptable on planes. #

My arms hurt from moving boxes, which I had to do because neither shipping nor facilities would. Workplace injury. Need a massage. #
created a playlist on YouTube, cannot for the life of me figure out how to tell anyone how to get to it, or even get to it myself. ??? #
@bubbva remind me when and where performance will be? #fb #
I have so many stories, that are not mine to tell… Sounds like a line from a song or poem, but it’s simply my life. #
@montymunford can’t dm you unless u follow me. I & my daughter both graduated from Woodstock school, glad to give any info you want #

lunch catching up with T made the trek to Menlo worthwhile. #
@bubbva bldg 18, but may move unless my teammates start showing up around here! #
@NomdeB turmeric and honey taken how? #
I like being on campus with colleagues, but these days I also love working from my own apt. #
Have you considered that I defend this point with tenacity and passion because I am sure I’m right about it? #
I’ve learned my lesson: any form of commuting falls apart when it rains here; better to work from home when there’s weather. #
@bubbva good tip thx tho today’s prob was the shuttle due to a traffic light being out #
@bubbva I should be in most mon, tues, fri, love to have lunch together! #
I am happy to fight when the cause is worthy, but I’m tired of fighting the same damn battles over and over and over… #
@Joanmarie more like job-related whack-a-mole. The same pesky problems keep rearing their ugly heads. #

why don’t you just leave, then? – I wonder why it is always those like me who are asked that question? http://bit.ly/9JcusJ #

why, yes, I am having beer and chocolate cake for dinner, thank you very much. #

RT @montymunford: <AND SO SAY ALL OF US!> RT @gambino: Brazil official urges more sex for better health http://bit.ly/d5AIYW -dancing, too! #
@bubbva ouch! #fb #
@reiger uh…. which part? 😉 #
@izzyvideo have yet to see one, have no particular yearnings. #
@glynnfoster I suspect that even not quite your best was still plenty good. #
@ebertchicago Vincere more accurately translates as to win. I’ll have to see the film to understand how the title fits. #
is there an easy way to import a bunch of pages from one WordPress blog into another? #
saw a rainbow over SF this morning, now looking at blue sky through rain-streaked windows. #
@davegraham I like it. Wd you rather be remembered lying bizarrely formal and composed in a coffin, or doing something you loved? #
@digitalsista For ~30 yrs I’ve been just me online, don’t need/want multiple identities. Have seen multiple IDs become probs for others… #
@digitalsista …with everything/one so connected, worlds collide, then messy public reconciliation of multiple selves becomes necessary. #
Umm, I guess I just answered my own question about whether to split my Tweetstream. I’ve always been one single me, better stay that way. #
my southern roots are showing: making biscuits for breakfast. No molasses to go with them, alas. #
storage folks: how many of you remember blogs.sun.com/storage ? Was it useful? Want it back? #

HATE how FB apps get around hide settings by giving subfeatures diff names. May have to start hiding everyone who uses these annoyances. #
nice at-home dinner with old friends who have also left Italy. I think we’re a movement by now. @euaccess @rosso we’re waiting for yooooo… #
RT @planspark: Toes, meet furniture. Ouch! – I broke two toes (one on each foot) within a month last summer. Bad furniture, bad! #
@PizzoC have you heard the Chenille Sisters’ version? La la la listen to your mamma… #
@rosso that’s right! We’ll have enough for our own high tech trade association. #
problem with a Skype phone is it makes me appear to be always online. So the kid called at 4:30 am and I’ve been awake ever since. Yawn. #
@faseidl thanks, but I don’t think that works when the only connection to skype is the skype phone #
dreamt that Larry came & (nicely) told me to clean up paper on my desk because it looked untidy. Cdn’t tell him it was my daughter’s mess. #
trying out local cheeses: last night: Humboldt Fog goat chese with a layer of ash inside, and Cowgirl Creamery’s Red Hawk. Both very yummy. #
@tgardner sign at restaurant at St Maarten nudist beach: No shoes, no shirt, no shorts – no problem! #

@NomdeB ate way too much of that Red Hawk today, with Acme ciabatta bread and grapes it was purrrrrfect. #

Exhausted by constant demands to be aware of, let alone care about, everyone’s pet causes. All worthy, but there’s only so much of me! #
@msgilligan FB definitely spawns them, but I get stuff on Twitter as well. @johnnysunshine Agreed, I don’t see the point of mere awareness #
@llcrowe I don’t think Brendan shouting at hard disks was heart touching. Compelling sort of. Still the most viral thing Sun ever did. #
@thinguy I wasn’t at the old Sun long enough to be so emotionally invested. And, anyway, I need the job. 😉 #
@jlb13 My daughter at ~18 mos discovered that glass was breakable. Accidental the 1st time, not the 2nd! Not only #boys #break #shit #
@Roam2Rome I miss rambutans, and mangosteens were my childhood favorties. Nowadays it’s mangos, but those imported to the US are just sad. #
June will be back to school month for me (yes, in addition to my day job). All set for an extremely busy summer. #

@legeza no! thanks for the alert. It shows in the overview as being 17 mins, but only runs for 1… will fix #

@zaps benvenuto a San Francisco, mio nuovo paese! #
@lskrocki I wasn’t a Sunny all that long, but, while I saw lots of women in engineering there, not many seemed to make it to the exec ranks. #
the trip to Ikea alone is tiring, then there’s the new stuff to haul up and put together, then I tested the new vacuum cleaner… tired! #
I don’t miss Italy most of the time, and/but it’s nice to be around people who know exactly what I mean when I talk about it. #
