why twitter still sucks

every once in awhile i return to twitter to check the news, or comment on say, the debate. so when i asked a meaningful question to practicing catholics who are pro-choice, how they are able to comingle both in their lives, i was met with a response, "get a grip" by the lady who used to be in that tv show, 24. she's a comedian, and played Keifer's assistant - she always had the serious look on her face while she sat in front of a glowing computer.

this sarcastic response tells ya two things:
-its your fault if you expect anything meaningful from twitter (meaning, it's my fault). Some times you get lucky -- it's how Riley Gale and I became friends, and how was able to engage with people I really admire (like Chilly Gonzales). but for me to expect a serious answer to an honest question is my fault.

and it proves the Scott Adams dictum (is that the right word?)
that you can't expect rational information from artists - a catch-all description for people in entertainment, be they actors, writers etc. But when you run into someone in the entertainment world that has a little background in business or economics or worked in non-entertainment settings for years - you get a fuller, more experienced person who can engage on multiple levels.

that's all!

Sweet Bites, Sweeter Memories

Is there a cookie that instantly takes you back to someone special? Spill the crumbs—I want to know what sweet treats live in your memory.

I’ll go first. My parents? Total cookie lovers. . We always had a stash of Pinwheels (those chocolate-covered marshmallow beauties), old-school iced oatmeal cookies, and those ridiculously fun frosted animal cookies that made snack time feel like a party. It was such a treat for us kids to have cookies.

And when the cookie jar ran dry? No problem. I’d play mad kitchen scientist—mixing margarine (yes, the fake butter), sugar, and a little flour until I had a makeshift cookie dough. Desperate times, delicious measures.

Your turn. What cookie takes you there?

'My local home depot looks more like a homeless camp with a 7ft tall wall of garbage than an actual home depot parking lot' - 'this isn't an exaggeration at all.'
