For at least ten years my spouse has had an old laptop running 24/7 on a small shelf right in front of the throne. It mostly has a very long running word puzzle game running on it and often times results in numb butt syndrome. It died this last weekend and lets just say I had a sad household due to lost game scores.

Well you can’t make a voice call in the stall. Everyone knows the echo. They know what you are doing.

I had that happen with a colleague. He called me to discuss a project and about halfway though I hear what sounded like a toilet paper dispenser and then a toilet flushing. I told him off that I couldn’t believe he was talking to me while taking a dump. He said he thought of me while taking a dump so called. I found out latter that that was an obscure reference to an old movie. Impolite at best.

Here in Israel, we take our queue from our Foreign Minister. No need to know the language.

Generally, the first few tweets are easy, the last few require more work.

@ShyGuy: Is that a bug or a feature for him?
