My Twitter History (Part III)



·  Why is that Kim & Kanye are allowed to reproduce...together, but we still can't legally get a good Cuban cigar here in the U.S. #messedup
· Adrian Peterson's surgically repaired knee doesn't bow to no one.
· I blame the survival of the high five on TV camera crews insistence on showing crowd shots at college FB games.
· They say not to criticize a man before walking a mile in his shoes, unless he's wearing Crocs then you have the right to verbally abuse him.
· Wonder why so many aspiring actors in LA work in restaurants? They say that good things come to those that wait.
· When I look out window & squint it looks like we're living on a white sand beach ... sans the nagging tourists asking to use our restroom.
· Are New Year's resolutions like birthday wishes in that if you tell someone they won't come true? If so, I'm vowing to gain weight in 2013.
· @juddapatow any movie forcing me to break multiple Commandments before credits roll gets two thumbs up..wait, Megan Fox is married, right?
· Less than two months before pitchers and catchers report, and hopefully this year they report for the Twins, too.
· I know where Santa goes when his X-mas duties are done, but what does Mall Santa do? Wait for the start of carnival season?
· My family Christmas this Sunday plus Vikings-Packers game that afternoon has the potential to produce severe mood swings and chest pains.
· Jumper cables & a good sense of humor during a Minnesota winter are as attractive as six-pack abs & great hair some place where it's warm.
· With X-mas almost over it's time to focus on those other unrealistic holiday expectations...or what others call New Year's resolutions.
· Does the whole make a list & check it twice begin day after X-mas or are we given a hall pass til Jan. 1? My New Year's Eve depends on it.
· Nothing puts you more into the holiday spirit than watching three wise guys (DeNiro, Peschi & Liotta) in "Goodfellas".
· A holiday dilemma...24 hours of "A Christmas Story" or a "Ridiculousness" marathon? #ralphievsrob
· I find it funny that some people I know criticizing the "junk" on TV that kids are exposed to today grew up watching "Hee Haw".
· I think it's a good rule of thumb to never watch a movie which has more characters than are allowed in a Tweet.
· I was such a rebel back in my youth that I didn't even clap when someone told me I was happy and I knew it.
· If you think about it "Twas the Night Before Christmas" is really a glorified Facebook post. #notacreaturewasstirring
· Is it pathetic that the only winter activity I really enjoy is blowing snow?
· "A Christmas Story" confirms the only reason I still endure winter is for the chance at a White Christmas, after that I long for warmth
· A Q&A that applies today. Q: Was "A Christmas Story" just on? A: Yes, 'Twas.
· Was "This is 40" a good movie? Yes, 'Twas.
· My goal today, to only 'Tweet using the word 'Twas. So...'Twas nice to see the Vikings win a big game for a change.
· Why do successful people always credit "a strong work ethic" for their accomplishments. It's like recognizing oxygen for living a long life.
· Better hit the hay because as they say the early bird gets the worm ... if it's even possible to find a worm through two feet of ice.
· Retailers really missed out on promoting a "Be Buyin' Like a Mayan" campaign today...you know, shop like there's no tomorrow. #endoftheworld
· Bet Fleetwood Mac is sweating bullets with all this Mayan talk hurting their "Don't Stop (Thinking About Tomorrow)" sales.
· SNOBLOG (order of Snow Blower Guys) duties complete, kids off to school, wife off to work ... & I just realized how much I miss mosquitos.
· It's a dog-eat-dog world out there and sometimes I feel like one of those pig ear chew toys and on bad days a squirrel.
· That's not "Boo!" Christian Ponder is saying, it's "I DOOOOOOO!"
· Hey Christian Ponder, that's not "Boo!" they're saying, it's "something old, something new, something borrowed & something BLUUUE!"
· My golf game mirrors my life... lots of time spent in water, sand, long grass & trees all the while avoiding that hole in ground at end
· I'd give much more validity to the Mayan prophecy if they had done it with jazz hands.
· When the MIT basketball team hosts a White Out night do their fans dress up as "delete" keys?

· If I were on a deserted island the one person I'd wish for is someone with an iPhone so we could look up how to build a coconut radio.

· Rumors have it they were considering a "Dirty Dancing" remake but then realized no one could put Honey Boo Boo in a corner.
· Who is this huge Ackman guy on w/ Katie Couric. He'd make a great Wolverine if they ever decide to make the X- Men into a movie.
· Is it ironic that after 20 years in journalism I'm just a couple stacks of old newspapers away from being a hoarder?
· You know what they say about clichés ... they're a dime a dozen.
· Tweet and retweet were in a boat, tweet fell in so who's left? #worsttweetof2012
· Zoey Deschanel now divorced from Death Cab for Cutie hubby, which is exciting for me because I've never typed "Death Cab for Cutie" before.

· Adrian Peterson's surgically repaired knee has reportedly dated and dumped at least one Kardashian.
· If the GOP had selected Adrian Peterson's surgically repaired knee as its presidential candidate we'd be looking at a lame-duck president.
· Why is it if I break into someone’s home to watch them asleep and/or awake it’s a crime but when Santa does it they glorify him in song?  
· Excuses are like meth labs. Not using them properly can blow up in your face.

· Not only don't I fear the reaper, I don't follow him on Twitter because he probably wouldn't say much other than "you're dead to me".
