Apr. 21st, 2010 01:38 pmAs of this morning, the number of Tweets made on my Twitter account surpassed the number of posts on my LiveJournal account.
Get ready to Twitter the stars...as we play the star-studded, big-money Twitter Game PM!
My improv friends who are heading to the Chicago Improv Festival held a farewell party last night at a club. The invitation said the party would start at 9 PM. I arrived around 9:15 to find less than a dozen people there and the DJ was just getting set up. Since the improv group is called "Those One Guys," the bar had a drink special called "That One Drink," made with vodka and one or two other random ingredients. The drinks I got appeared to contain vodka, pineapple juice (or pineapple-flavored vodka) and Sprite. I joined the others on the patio around 10:40 when the rest of the improv group finally showed up.
I saw the person who was looking to hire Colorado Springs actors/improvisers for a soon-to-open dinner theater. He said the theater is tentatively scheduled to open in July or August.
Apparently, typing the word "game" in my 21:38 Tweet triggered a spammer's auto-reply to me. The message said I "just lost the game" and included a link to his Facebook page (which is also based on the phrase "You just lost the game.") His Twitter account is nothing but that message sent to various people. A similar thing happened a few months ago when I typed the word "fart" in a Tweet. That message was re-Tweeted with the added phrase "FART ROBOT APPROVES!"

- 14:25 I wonder if the folks tweeting #saynotodrugs smoke tobacco, drink alcohol or eat/drink anything with caffeine. #BreakingNews Those are drugs #
- 15:59 I've followed a few fake celebrity Twitter pages recently. Even though they're not the real deal, I still put them on my "celebrities" list. #
- 18:04 Note to phone solicitors: If your Caller ID name is "-UNAVAILABLE-" so am I. #HeresAQuarterBuyAClue #
- 18:49 12seconds - Butterscotch head bobbing tiny12.tv/FWETV #
- 18:49 I just got the 1st Video! badge on #12seconds! - 12seconds.tv /channel/jtr115 #
- 21:38 The party is taking its sweet time getting started. At least the music is drowning out the hockey game on TV. #
- 22:26 This place is practically deserted. Almost everyone's out on the patio smoking. Every time I move close to the crowd, it scatters. FFFFF! #
- 23:00 Okay. More folks are here and I've got a few vodka and ???s in me. NOW0the party's started! #
