You know you’re in the South when @JELLO is listed as a vegetable.

@JosephDiorio6 And you JUST put out an email about that!

Yeah that’s how we do room service on the cheap in #tokyo…$2.

Much as I appreciate Japan’s hygiene culture, shutting down all the hand dryers in bathrooms and NOT providing paper towels is #DumbestIdeaEver. Bring your own washcloth. #TravelerBeware

I’ll never quite understand this contradiction in #japanese hygiene : hi-tech heated seat douching toilet coupled with a tiny sink—cold water only, no soap, no towel. #YankeeTravelerBeware

Is it any wonder why this “ITANDA” product bought on Amazon doesn’t work? #Engrish

@JosephDiorio6 @WriterNatalieN I know why November 22 is an important date in history in a certain year years old

Things that make a communicator ask, “why”…. #grammarnazi

@JosephDiorio6 @TSNOTYAW @ProEdStandards @BeaufortBooks @WritersRelief Joe there’s a very simple etymological explanation for this: a bat is the thing you hit the thing that hangs upside down with.

@LymanTweets @yurikageyama Agreed! Great photo for your twitter profile

How long do you hang on to your past conference badge? This one from @IABCSouthern's #connect2comms has an awful lot of fond memories attached. Plus, it's perfect Halloween colors.

@patrickcobb Someone thinks he’s not??

@JosephDiorio6 @uusaint When Ian comes knocking, don’t answer.

@JosephDiorio6 @Chelle_Rutter Cmon Joe… not a potato. Mr. Potato Head, maybe, but not just a plain spud!

To all @IABCNashville friends good news from our Joe Diorio in Ft. Myers: he and Sue are fine, house is undamaged; helping to clear trees at his daughter’s house. No powere the last 48 hours, so his phone likely has no charge!

@yurikageyama @spec_espace Have you ever hear of SALT? Excellent Japanese brand available in the U.S. A bit more conservative on the case design.

@TosinfaksTV We lived in Nashville five years, from 1997 to 2022. We felt much less safe in the last two years. When a nurse gets shot on her way to work on I 440 for no apparent reason, why would I not be next?
