• 01:45:59: do the laws banning texting while driving specifically say the driver, or is everyone in the car prohibited?
  
• 01:51:54: i hate ads that say "there's never been a better time to..."; have they really researched it?
  
• 01:53:35: #shutup chevy! responding to "Everybody says imports are the safe bet" w/info about Chevy's warranty doesnt disprove it
  
• 02:34:48: politicians cut taxes becuz no one knows what our government should cost
  
• 02:54:10: it's not the number of tweeters in ur life that counts, it's the life in ur tweeters
  
• 05:26:50: i get furious when ppl parrot all the myths about the alleged Obesity Epidemic. couldnt find an email addy for Michelle Obama to tell her
  
• 05:30:31: if today's kids have the prospect of a shorter life, it's *only* becuz of these dangerous "solutions" to a non-existent Obesity Crisis
  
• 05:34:16: the only way most ppl will eat vegetables is by making them into "junk food"! adding sauce or cheese or fruit juice to disguise the taste
  
• 05:43:09: @LightsaberJesus but exercise/sports does hurt lots of ppl--in fact most of them, sooner or later
  
• 05:45:46: today's kids aren't eating enough! fact!
  
• 05:47:47: The total fat intake of kids is currently about 32%. That is well within even the 25-35% recommended for children by Dietary Guidelines.
  
• 05:51:06: "...researchers have repeatedly tried and failed to demonstrate benefits from lower fat diets beginning in childhood." http://bit.ly/9KhWl3
  
• 06:00:52: "the risks of lowering fat content of children diets so outweigh the benefits as 2 totally invalidate the recommendatn of the expert panel"
  
• 06:11:02: "considerable evidence showed that low-fat diets left children short on nutrients as well as calories to supply the energy they needed"
  
• 06:13:17: breast milk delivers 40-50% of it's calories as fat http://bit.ly/9KhWl3
  
• 06:30:26: @LeRoiSUGAR kids, like adults, have a natural diversity of shapes and sizes. large 10yos r the future football players & r generally healthy
  
• 06:32:18: @LeRoiSUGAR fats actually convey nutrients & enable the body to absorb them. there r NO unnutritious foods w/lots of calories
  
• 06:36:09: @LeRoiSUGAR in my opinion, some of those kids are starving, which is worse than being large
  
• 12:49:47: @LightsaberJesus do & eat what u want, it's just that long-term health benefits are unproven. do athletes have a noticeably longer life? no

• 16:29:57: i shoulda known better than to wear slacks w/cuffs while walking in deep snow
  
• 16:31:36: @VariantVal pony tail messy, bra strap slipping off, i'll bet u look real sassy!
  
• 16:32:45: @Ldyshtfck oh like that's the first time

• 16:40:23: @wickedlibrarian just color ur hair in ur avatar
  
• 16:57:30: RT @Jamberta: Muslims go home? Do those people know that Islam is a religion and not a country?
  
• 17:05:23: @KellyOlexa i told the office mgr once that i had to love someone who, when told to get some paper clips, gets 6,000!

• 17:17:20: i've been checking my checking acct online every day, awaiting my 1st unermploymt check, then i think maybe i didnt tell them about my bank
  
• 17:18:50: if i never entered my direct deposit info, then they will mail me a prepaid debit card. no wonder it seems to be taking a long time

• 18:45:54: @tsum i see buzz in my gmail sidebar, but not my google apps sidebar
  
• 19:05:07: i think twitter blocks should wear off after a while
  
• 19:06:46: i agree RT @elizapi: Photo: DAMN Jane Seymour looking good http://tumblr.com/x976bt9kq
  
• 19:10:49: @NICOLENICHOLS words is just words, no?
  
• 19:40:38: @Jamberta yeah, i had to "fan" a group i dont approve of just to make a comment. i unfanned but worried that would delete my comment
  
• 19:47:36: @NICOLENICHOLS i like to use cuss words sparingly so i dont ruin the shock value
  
• 19:48:44: @tsum google apps looks just like gmail but it hosts my own domain. it'll prob be there sooner or later
  
• 19:51:18: @NICOLENICHOLS yep, when i cuss, ppl jump!

• 20:10:25: @LightsaberJesus i think they do! some want to force ppl to exercise, even against their will, under threat of early death
  
• 20:11:32: @LightsaberJesus some want to re-engineer offices, malls, even cities, to avoid what they call an obesigenic society
  
• 20:14:13: @LightsaberJesus all without any proof that it would make a difference!
  
• 20:38:38: @Lilykily i love the typestyle (font) of your blog's logo!

• 22:05:48: @66Betty wow! what was the word?
  
• 22:10:51: @66Betty terrific!
  
• 22:13:05: @VeronikaG i was afraid of that! it was a 70's men's cologne, kind of lime-y
  
• 22:15:03: @TabooLaRossi i have 2 cats on my lap, we're huddling for warmth! ur tweets about the approaching madness were very poetic
  
• 22:19:08: @LightsaberJesus u'd be surprised, tho it seems very intuitive, how unproven all 3 premises are! for example:
  
• 22:20:34: @LightsaberJesus "it is not clear that increased physical activity actually prevents or reverses age-related weight gain (DiPietro, 1999)"
  
• 22:27:10: @LightsaberJesus "...research continues 2 find no support 4 the popular belief that [we] are less physically (cont) http://tl.gd/89j0b
  
• 22:30:06: @TabooLaRossi blogging? i had checked out ur blog once a while ago
  
• 22:32:38: @LightsaberJesus ...there is no statistical case for interpreting increasing...BMI as an increase in fatness (cont) http://tl.gd/89k40
  
• 22:36:34: @LightsaberJesus in fact i recommend the 14pg paper "Obesity and Public Policy" http://lnk.in/opptctc an good read, very scientific
  
• 22:38:49: @LightsaberJesus hope u didnt mind arguing, i was in an argumentative mood
  
• 22:39:35: @TabooLaRossi yep, throw another cat on the fire!
  
• 22:40:59: @TabooLaRossi what do u do for a living? is this the busy season?
  
• 22:44:04: @tsum Barry told me he couldnt find my coffee at trader joe's either :-(
  
• 22:47:01: RT @Hey__Mister: RT Can U help? Getting a count of atheists on twitter by hashtag! If you're an atheist, RT this whole message #atheist
  
• 22:48:03: @tsum cuz it was half light roast & half dark roast too
  
• 22:50:03: does Howard Stern have a talent? i think he's famous for being famous, like Paris Hilton
  
• 22:52:01: @TabooLaRossi good!
  
• 22:53:12: @TabooLaRossi i need a job in IT, but i'm too old to crawl around under desks and in crawl spaces
  
• 22:57:25: @tsum that's a lot of coffee to go thru 1 or 2 cups a day. i may do that tho, but it may be difficult to match TJs blend
  
• 22:59:04: @tsum i do have other open cans too, pick today's coffee at random--i like variety. this 13oz TJ can lasted about 3 yrs
  
• 23:15:22: @tsum as u can see, i'm not very particular about coffee. if the can is beans, i open & grind them all in the store as i dont have a grinder
  
• 23:16:47: what a joke, that local schools only allowed 5 snow days this year. that's like serving sizes on snack pkgs
  
• 23:23:31: good name! RT @mandiengram Anyone tried the PC Decrapifier to remove trialware? I just really like the name. http://ow.ly/16aCX
  
• 23:27:05: @VariantVal i'm surprised when ppl go to work sick...& the boss doesnt send them home
  
• 23:28:10: @BurstzLawyer i like a nice plaid carpet
  
• 23:29:40: RT @_7654_: RT @JCX: RT @ThinkAtheist: Atheists are often charged with blasphemy, but it is a crime they cannot commit... -G. W. Foote # ...
  
• 23:39:42: @VariantVal even the boss got sick!
  
• 23:50:26: @jillhanner in original Battlestar Galactica in the 70s, they said Felgercarb instead of Crap, & i still use Felgercarb
