@wmhartnett What I'm envisioning going on in your office right now: http://tinyurl.com/5f3k2k
Things I love equally: Burning myself with acid, breaking my toes with a framing hammer, proposal writing. Guess which one I'm doing.
@dorsey It's not bad advice: I gave a talk about data vis using swear words and naked people: http://tinyurl.com/6za6cp
@bergus Been rumored for a while. Most of us are looking for answers to the million questions the memo created. Not much else to say.
@gmarkham The outrage? No penalty called. Decided the game too. Every paper in the state ran that photo on 1A HUGE the next day.
Thanks to @mattwynn, had to bust out the Omaha Stylee: http://tinyurl.com/5ll7uv
@mattwynn Not sure. I wonder though. They emerged around the time 311 did out of Omaha. Might be subconsciously linked.
Maybe my most favorite football photo ever: http://tinyurl.com/5df3pm
Where have these guys gone when I need to throw myself into a good mosh pit: http://tinyurl.com/6ry377
@DailyDeadline I'll take That's Complete Bullshit for $200, Alex.
@mallarytenore Hang out at Five Guys in the Progress Energy Tower. It's turned into a St. Pete Times ghetto. Bumped into 9 staffers one day.
Honoring of the passing of Mitch Mitchell, the drummer from the Jimi Hendrix Experience: Now playing: Live at Monterrey, 1967.

Having one of those days that goes Holy shit this is going to be cool ... holy shit this is going to be a lot of work.
More layoffs at the Tampa Trib. This time, one of their most visible metro columnists gets the ax: http://bit.ly/gw1Q
@ckrewson My move away from text driven powerpoints is inspired by Cal Henderson of Flickr: http://tinyurl.com/6cwdtl
@agahran Official title is Using Databases and Crunching Numbers. It's for the SPJ Reporters Institute for young journalists.
@ckrewson This is a talk I've done a billion times -- using data on the beat -- so I've got 20+ versions of it to pick and chose from.
@ckrewson I'm speaking at a Poynter conference today. Lately, I'm taking a hybrid approach: powerpoint, lots of photos, text for key points
