Listened to 10CC's Album How Dare You. I swear, almost 40 years later, that crazy thing hasn't aged a day.
Whoever's been picking featured musicians for NPR shows this season, THANK YOU. #Mvula #MitchellHamer #LaHavas ♬♬♬

Why is it so hard to find maps with city boundaries all of a sudden? #oldmanquestion #butireallywanttoknow
Y'know, I'd forgive The Great Gatsby all it's excesses if, just once, a cell ringtone come out of an old-style phone. THAT would be awesome.
In other news, critics speculate that next Rob Zombie movie might go for "scary."
Rotten Tomatoes sez The Great Gatsby consensus is "Style over Substance." Gosh, that's a change of pace for BAZ LUHRMANN.

Words are the ultimate abstraction... angelikapiwowarczyk.com/wp-content/upl… Look at it as a sequence.
Sadly, I fear that movie won't be half as much fun as it looks. :-( #alsoNOTtheprestige
Liked the music in the 2nd Now You See Me trailer... youtube.com/watch?v=KzJNYY… ...then realized it's Woodkid's "Run Boy Run." ♥♬
Thanks to @Cecconi14039m I've decided to go with Saranac Pale Ale. Just looks about right. Thanks, Everybody for your suggestions!

Does anyone else find it kind of icky to hear grown men going on about the president's "juice"? #ANYpresident
I don't think this headline is hyperbole: npr.org/blogs/money/20… For the Web we know, it's nearly a birth certificate.
I so wish this guest-starred @scottmccloud. "@sesamestreet: Want to learn how to read a comic? Elmo can help! pic.twitter.com/3u5z0CXPfL"

So did someone actually *write* the lyric "some little small cafe" or did Sinatra just screw it up? Cause that's a terrible line!
Cross-branding, big corporations, whatever... At least it isn't a motion comic: steerthestory.com #mmmscrolly
It seems "Donald Kaufman" rose from the grave just long enough to write TRANCE.

So, feel free to suggest a better one to @Tomismore but I think 'Identity Vacuum' is a pretty good term [see my last retweets].
@scottmccloud ...but you never quite *name* this principle, as far as I can tell. Have you since? I've used 'Identity Vacuum' on my blog.

@scottmccloud In Understanding Comics, one of my favorite phenomena you describe is that of simpler images standing for our own identities..

So addicted to #stripsearch. Grown really fond of ALL the artists. Hurts to see ANY of them lose! :-(
Thanks, Everybody! "Loaded" sounded best to me, but I wanted to make sure it wasn't a relic of my generation. Apparently, it's fine. :-)
