So far: born, living.
Not quite dead yet, but working on it.
Greenish, apparently.
Apologies if I'm ranting... better here, than on the street.

@colinbowern I do a bit of this, and one thing I've learnt is to minimize exceptions. "No, you can't do that because no one else does."

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@rafaelmagu yeah, me too.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@LexRegina72 TV News is the same, for sure.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

"Celebrate with a tweet" it said.

Now, that's my idea of fun.

#MyTwitterAnniversary it said, and who am I to argue?

Maybe nothing much else happened in 2008.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

Here's a different perspective on the news, @NewshubNZ .

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

Women just love Abba.

No more describing anything as 'red' or 'blue' for the rest of the year now, thanks.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

What's happening? You may well ask, Twitter. Same bloody thing: Airlines now using kites or balloons or chickens or something.

@meganjwhelan Funnily enough I had it tonight - mashed with peas mixed in (off the plate, not earlier), with a generous helping of cheap hot sachet gravy.

@AshleyCnz @alikatchch @paulbrislen Somewhat underperformed in our move, financially speaking, but shit, we now live in the Marlborough Sounds, so who cares.

@billbennettnz Take your sleeping bag and a thermos of tea.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

That's a very slow aircraft

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@billbennettnz Seltzer will go the way of ice beer, which was once a big deal for a year or so in USA.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@colinbowern Exciting times, although some boxes will be party poopers and remain unopened for years.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@billbennettnz I'll take that. Thanks. Far better than <the name which shall not be spoken>.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@billbennettnz Yeah yeah. I bet.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@billbennettnz Ask William, whoever he is.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@billbennettnz @AndyStig Do recipients see the account details of where a payment is coming from?

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@fastchicken Certain market stall holders sadly fall into that category (observation based on having run a market stall for a few years). But yeah.

[Don Pointon @toothpickdog]

@sponno Well done to make it white. So many (admittedly not picket) are dark colours, which you can see straight through. That's how eyes work.
