That one time back in the early 1980s when recreated the Texas Fisherman magazine logo for a video my dad was editing for a boat show or something in Houston.

@deancain well, for what it’s worth, enjoyed your L&C work. Always happy to see you pop up on the screen, and now X.

@beinlibertarian Living through that one time was bad enough without a reminder ;) The Iowa Straw Poll experience was quite interesting.

Do you guys remember the viral dress of 2015? I have a theory about it 🤣🤣🤣🤣listen…don’t judge me for my random weird thoughts.

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@THErealDVORAK nailed it.

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@THErealDVORAK "Say less" is just a reinvention of "say no more," I guess.

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

Hey @THErealDVORAK, I rememebr reading the @pennjillette article about the laptop starting up with a countdown timer. Hopefully nobody ever really tried that ;)

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@RLMLDL Curious about this. I have a "book" PDF that was laid out in a cheap PC program almost 20 years ago. Does it figure out where a sentence ends and continues in another block on a page?

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

Seriously. How do A.I.s know movies? ;-)

In *This Is Spinal Tap*, the amplifiers go up to 11, as Nigel Tufnel proudly claims they're "one louder" than standard amps that max at 10. Technically, this is a comedic exaggeration—volume depends on the amp's electronics, not the knob's label. Going to 11 doesn't make it louder; it's a cosmetic nod to rock excess. Real-world amps, like Marshall's JCM900, later adopted higher numbers as a tribute, but the effect is symbolic, not functional. The phrase "up to 11" now means pushing beyond limits, but it's more about perception than actual volume.

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@SpinalTap @grok How loud do the amplifiers go to?

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@KettlebellDan Yep. Multiple accounts. One shows me just theme park stuff that I follow. One shows me "News". Totally different echo chambers, so it is what you make of it.

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@THErealDVORAK @PuppetEdgar Well, thanks for that, John C. There goes hours…

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@DougRDNaylor We just discovered Peacock streaming has the show in the US, but it appears to be the non special edition of S1 so far. Which version do you consider the one we should be watching?

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@Centurylinkhelp any outage in 50021?

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@CenturyLink is there a way to check outage without having to log in to an account? Our office has been down since yesterday evening, but we don’t have access to the account info to check with you.

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

@LPNational I didn’t expect a hex dump from you.

[Allen Huffman @allenhuffman]

Indeed, but team sports is so much fun.

[Libertarian Party @LPNational]

Sad but true

@DontWalkRUN Tips are gifts. If I give a grandkid $50 for a birthday, I don’t think they should have to pay taxes on that.
