“We Need More Bad Science Writers” http://bit.ly/dqSaOb Australian media take note.
So of all the things said in all the media by cranky Americans, Helen Thomas’ comments lead to resignation? Over-reaction?
@SnarkyPlatypus Oui, certainement. Leur stratégie consiste à se plaindre et de dormir dans des mesures égales. Je suis dans la crainte.
@SnarkyPlatypus Bonjour. J’ai décidé que les chats ont choisi la bonne stratégie pour aujourd’hui. Et vous?
Almost emerges.

All bunnies read the Bible, @drearyclocks, I seem to remember reading that somewhere. http://bit.ly/ap2Jkl
Quarterly Essay is a print-only beast, @jeamland, though you could hack Marr’s laptop or Black Inc’s server maybe?

You think J Bieber is annoying? TAKE THIS, CANADA! http://mysp.ac/axwkXQ HT @macleanbrendan and Aussie Ingenuity
@duncanriley Would both Angela Bishop and Wikipedia lie? Died in Liverpool Hospital this afternoon, it says.
Ah, Adriana Xenides has just died. That probably explains the weird confluence of moods this evening.
RT @renailemay: Taking humans out of the network equation is key to security and uptime. [Also, hospitals work better without patients.]
You know, just because I ask a question, it doesn’t mean I really want the answer.

There’s 6.8 billion people on the planet. How many, right now, are masturbating? And how many of them are over 70?

@franksting Beer, good idea, yes. But perhaps I should do a summary piece. It was a fairly intense 3 days and more stories will emerge.
RT @jonoabroad: Hmm persistent cold. Take the blood of one to two vegans twice daily. Won’t cure you, will make you feel better. [Agreed.]
@firstdogonmoon Is there such a thing as a non-whiney blog?
That said, @franksting, last week’s and today’s “Patch Monday” have stuff recorded at Microsoft, and I did a colour piece for Crikey.
There isn’t a specific debrief piece on my trip to Microsoft, @franksting, stories have been emerging bit by bit.
“Patch Monday” podcast filed! And now I can notice how crap I still feel. This cold has been taking far, far too long. Grrr.
Dear Reaper, please not be doing upfuckage in bits of my podcast what I have already mixed causing me to have to remix them kthxbai.
Struggling to concentrate on the various interviews that’ll go into “Patch Monday” today. I’m clearly still fuzzy from the cold. Grrr.
WTF? Qld Premier is confirming soldiers’ deaths in Afghanistan? I thought we had a Minister for Defence for that sort of thing.
