It was great to sweep the Cubs, but I’m a little over it now that the SOX appear to be on a decent winning clip (at home).
OK, so the post has a little to do with baseball.
First, if you’re in Austin, consider donating blood through the Tweetup Blood Drive. I’ll be there at 10:15am. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate your Independence than by helping others with vital materials for life. I don’t donate enough.
OK, maybe if they lit off fireworks while your arm was being tapped – that would be a better way.
If you’re unfamiliar with a Tweetup, it’s an event started by someone on Twitter, but open to all. I’m @joeyTWOwheels, if you dare join the microblogging world (Stalelife is on there, too: @Stalelife).
There’s no cost, and Twitter is a great way to keep up with friends, news and companies – some people use it for polls, to find work and/or hired help. All the uses are still being created every day, by people who use it.
Second, for you Austinites, if you watch videos online, consider filling out this survey for KLRU, the local PBS station. It will help them greatly. Psssst - you could also win two tickets to a live taping of Austin City Limits.
Pre-Independence Day Goods:
The carwash is very cool, but I didn’t always think that. As a kid I imagined the carwash eating the car. Scary. As seen through my moonroof. ^
Does anyone know what the hell that is? We’ve got a few of them hanging around on the house.
When people ask to see pictures of the kids (in person), these are the most recent ones on my phone.
Of course, they couldn’t both look at me at the same time. But they do love their Red Wagon.
Have a wonderful Independence Weekend!
