Twitter and Facebook are really the methadone of social interaction. I should scale back.

I notice that I'm still able to see Twitter and Facebook. Now when *those* guys go dark, we'll have ourselves a protest!

@ Ademas, por favor, no quejarse sobre el cafe! Si buscas, puedes encontrar cafe igual o mejor que en tu pais. Te prometo. ;-)

@ Welcome to the US! Recuerde: No hay fumar. No tome cafe de pie. Hay que comer a las 12:00, cenar 19:00, y dejar propinas. :-)

I'm way out of practice. It took me over an hour and half to write my last post and it was barely 1200 words, and not particularly great.

Considering Malcolm Gladwell’s Blink is a ~70,000 words long, I've written enough words to fill 18 books, with a novella to spare... :-)

Out of curiosity, I just exported my blog, stripped out the code samples, and counted the words: 1,282,501 words over ~10 years. Wow.
