My tweets of the last week:
- @SmashleyDubs @Not_Pele Was just thinking of checking out Yakatori Boy for an off-night, like Tuesday or Thursday, maybe get a room? in reply to SmashleyDubs #
- Attempting to watch Scott Pilgrim, but Michael Cera's pasty, weak-chinned mug is sort of impossible to look at for extended periods of time. #
- @marykateruf This movie is so incredibly bad. Jesse Eisenberg all the way. in reply to marykateruf #
- I must be officially old now, because the fortyish minutes of Scott Pilgrim I managed to sit through were terrible. Oh, and get off my lawn. #
- @alexcmurphy Oh, they weren't strictly sequential. I had to skip around to actually see some fights. It seemed like something I'd like @ 15. in reply to alexcmurphy #
- @alexcmurphy Are we talking about DIRECT adaptations of specific works or general comic adaptations of an overall work / group of characters in reply to alexcmurphy #
- @alexcmurphy I'd say Watchmen makes that list for sure despite the retool of the ending. Ghost World also an excellent pick. Not Kick Ass? in reply to alexcmurphy #
- @alexcmurphy I think if we're talking about the ability of an adaptation to translate a concept from page to screen Watchmen gets high marks in reply to alexcmurphy #
- @alexcmurphy If we're arbitrating based on if the narrative quality on screen matches the quality on the page, that's a different story. in reply to alexcmurphy #
- @alexcmurphy For the record, I think Kick Ass was enjoyable, but in terms of this conversation needlessly went off the rails for the finale. in reply to alexcmurphy #
- @mikeyil I hit an "Asians in not-Asians-only business meetings" jackpot on our stock photos last year, still reaping the rewards. in reply to mikeyil #
- I feel that watching Apollo 13 last night was good preparation for this technical call- can I make the project work with a sock & duct tape? #
- @brimil :06 away from running an eight minute mile. Hut. #
- @Not_Pele On a similar theme, I found a comic website that reliably displays your ad every time I load a page. Clearly they know their demo. in reply to Not_Pele #
- @jonarogers @eedawson It's sold out :(… in reply to jonarogers #
- I know this makes me a major(er?) nerd, but OMG I got the only out-of-print X-Men TPB I'm missing for $20.50 instead of $80. i <3 ezsniper #
- @jonarogers I would seriously find a way to get down there to go with you, but I think my little brother might kill me if I go without him? in reply to jonarogers #
- Is it actually ironic that I might have to visit the office during a break in my "Managing Competing Priorities" seminar, or Alanis ironic? #
- @SocialBrown That's just a meetup, though – not the full conference. Wish I could escape up there mid-week! in reply to SocialBrown #
- Always good to hit a seminar where I learn but ALSO reinforce smart things I already do. Fitting in gourmet lunch w/ @marykateruf also key. #
- There really needs to be an entry in my gym's exercise log software for "fronting a rock band." I guess I could list it under calisthenics…? #
- @marykateruf LIES. in reply to marykateruf #
- @theoreticalgirl Yours does? Wow. I always wonder how many calories it burns. I'm pretty active while I play. in reply to theoreticalgirl #
- listening to "Eye Of The Tiger – Survivor" ? http://blip.fm/~12nhqk #
- Two tracks into the new @Eisley LP – sounds absolutely incredible. I can't believe they topped the production of the last one /cc @toofeets #
- @toofeets Seriously, it is so good. We are just sitting in our kitchen freaking out. I can't remember the last LP I felt that way about. in reply to toofeets #
- @alexcmurphy We just got our copy today. Perhaps I can preview it to you tomorrow night :) in reply to alexcmurphy #
- Burning new Arcati Crisis CDs for tomorrow's show. I really wish I'd kept better track of how many we've moved – over a thousand, now? #
- I don't know that I've ever screamed at the TV quite as much as during that viewing of How to Train Your Dragon. Damn, that's a good flick. #
- @sayitrahshay I loved that it was so genuine, and that it had a strong female supporting character that was never a damsel. in reply to sayitrahshay #
- @alexcmurphy The actual was so thrilling! Everything with Toothless made me absolutely crazy, even though I knew no one would die. in reply to alexcmurphy #
- @magaIicious Um, largely "don't hurt Toothless!" but other stuff too. in reply to magaIicious #
- News flash: I do not look great wearing a corset. #
- @whedonesque Tie: Anya & Wash. Runner Up: Topher. in reply to whedonesque #
- Had an awesome soundcheck @doriansparlor, now @ Raw for sushi w/drummer Zina. T-minus 2.5hrs until our fully electric sneak preview show! #
- One hour until we hit the stage @doriansparlor. Wondering how to best make use of the catwalk… http://twitpic.com/48xo8p #
- @amanda_nan you have to see me and G together to get our full impat, but here's a quick peek ;) http://twitpic.com/48xust #
- Our 1st ever fully-plugged, fully-drummed set is history! There were guitar solos, rock poses, dancing audience, corsets, & pleather pants! #
- Oh, darn – apparently the entire show tonight was streaming, and I didn't even know to tell you. Boo! #
- @nealwiser @jopincusion @amanda_nan Videos are a little noisy, so maybe not YouTube quality, but I'll add them to fb/arcaticrisis this week! #
- Back still a little funny after all of my rock poses last night (why must they all end in backbends?), but some Sunday yoga helped loosen it #
- How many 90 year olds do you know that have rock bands at their birthday party and make speeches on mic with Charlie Sheen jokes? So awesome #
