Twitter Weekly Updates for 2009-12-19

I'm at McDonald's again. It's a great study spot, probably shouldn't be tweeting and spreading the word. #
Only McGuinty can prevent college strike. My latest @globecampus: http://tgam.ca/F10 #cdnpse #
@cdnpse It's more that I'm married to my school work and writing. 🙂 in reply to cdnpse #
@TerryFallis I thought you were playing Jeopardy. Guess I'll have to wait two hours. in reply to TerryFallis #
@TerryFallis What is a book? #
Me like cookie monster: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYsi7Ro9ljQ #
Damn, I'm out of chocolate. I can go to the store, but it was much more fun to raid the gf's gift last year. Being single sucks at times. #
@cuppres I'd use something along the lines of "North American's oldest student media cooperative" This is why I'm not a copy editor in reply to cuppres #
@cuppres We drink a lot in reply to cuppres #
Okay, next week I'm writing about cute rabbits with waffles on their heads. #
@SheenaGoodyear "Not by targeting the obese, but by targeting the real problem: poor lifestyles and eating habits." in reply to SheenaGoodyear #
@SheenaGoodyear I agree, that's why I said Lincoln U was misguided (wrong) in how they implemented the course. in reply to SheenaGoodyear #
@SheenaGoodyear: I've never said there should be a physical requirement or rules about body to graduate. I agree there should not. #
@SheenaGoodyear Unis can make certain non-subject courses mandatory; no debate. I see a course focused on healthy living being similar. in reply to SheenaGoodyear #
@SheenaGoodyear not directly, I'm saying there is no debate about unis dictating mandatory courses. in reply to SheenaGoodyear #
@SheenaGoodyear I don't assume that; hence why I say the choice should be mandatory for all students. in reply to SheenaGoodyear #
@danigirl1987 they already force classes. Mandatory writing classes is a perfect example. @SheenaGoodyear @globecampus in reply to danigirl1987 #
Just submitted an @globecampus column… three days in a row; I didn't get the Christmas break memo. #
@SheenaGoodyear @globecampus I say the university is right to teach people of how to live a healthy lifestyle; teaching is not imposing. in reply to SheenaGoodyear #
@SheenaGoodyear I like Toronto as well; just playing up the rivalry and stereotypes. in reply to SheenaGoodyear #
@SheenaGoodyear You should move to Hamilton, much better than Toronto. You can still travel to TO for the two good things without the crime in reply to SheenaGoodyear #
@cdnpse Actually, the Latin phrase was the beginning of my thought process. Not trying to be cosmopolitan, this time. in reply to cdnpse #
Mens sana in corpore sano? My latest @globecampus column: http://tgam.ca/FXA #lincolnu #cdnpse #highered #
Nothing wrong with the RFP, I read it the same way I read the L'Osservatore Romano. It's an editorially autonomous house organ. #cfsfcee #
@TheVarsity your piece on How to Destroy the Book is nearly a trending topic, but let's keep it a twitter secret from non-tweeting editors #
@alexsevigny it could be worse, you could be in an airport named after the Iron Lady. in reply to alexsevigny #
RT @TalentEgg My thoughts on the 1,000 books everyone should read http://bit.ly/6kbcn6 #
@DanPagan It's the nice thing about a lot of my "Ontario focused" pieces, you can change the province and it still applies. in reply to DanPagan #
Great line in response to my column. It's not that pols are anti-student, they are pro-vote. #
My latest @globecampus column: Students need to vote or move out of the neighbourhood! http://tgam.ca/FTY #cdnpse #OUIT #Durham #Oshawa #
@alox I'm just trying to start a flame war with @RadicalBeer. I do this when I'm bored. in reply to alox #
@CanEdProject my take on the tuition tax 2 wks ago http://www.globecampus.ca/blog…..cash-cows/ #highered in reply to CanEdProject #
@RadicalBeer You're a disgrace to the legacy of the RFP; providing social thoughts and analysis. I want the pylon back! in reply to RadicalBeer #
[New joeycoleman.ca post] Yes, I left Facebook. http://www.joeycoleman.ca/2009…..-facebook/ #
@FierceFab you are not going to believe this. I saw a Translink bus in Hamilton tonight! Seriously, and it was pulling into a Tim Hortons! in reply to FierceFab #
@maconcampus @JoeChidley another summary of @globecampus original reporting? Come on Maclean's, Canada needs more than one higher ed site! in reply to maconcampus #
@kitestring you should visit him. BTW, he's in the City Centre. Maybe it's being in City Hall that makes him sad. All the naughty politicans in reply to kitestring #
I'm I allowed to admit to listening to Don Henley right now? #
@hyfen I miss the days when MovableType was the platform leader. It was clean. in reply to hyfen #
[New joeycoleman.ca blog post] Missing the old Joey Coleman – http://www.joeycoleman.ca/2009…..y-coleman/ #
@cfs_quebec Really, that's the best you can do? At least @FakeJoeyColeman made sense most of the time. LAME in reply to cfs_quebec #
@dmolenhuis Where is the $280,000,000 going to come from? #cdnpse #cfsfcee in reply to dmolenhuis #
FTR @dmolenhuis under two hours response time is the fastest I've ever received from CFS/CFS-S. Hope it continues #cdnpse #cfsfcee #
@dmolenhuis Where is the $208,000,000 going to come from? in reply to dmolenhuis #
This is what I need to get back into doing: http://bit.ly/4DHneV Sigh, to motivate myself and find the time to do it again. #
@queensprincipal I mention the scarf and you change your picture to remove it? That was your brand; now how I'm I to distinguish you? in reply to queensprincipal #
@alexsevigny on a plus side, I got to watch Kinsella on CBC say political theater is bad for the political process. Rather amusing. in reply to alexsevigny #
@alexsevigny I admit it, I'm jealous. in reply to alexsevigny #
@dmolenhuis where do you propose the funding to come from? People have rejected tax increases. Suggest solutions please. #cdnpse in reply to dmolenhuis #
@kitestring I will be there. in reply to kitestring #
Really National Post? I'm no fan of the Kangaroo Human Rights courts, but for once they were on the right side. http://bit.ly/5j3rZI #
@qui_oui @alexsevingy tidy writing is overrated in reply to qui_oui #
@hyfen It's not that bad; you don't really notice the difference below – 30 in reply to hyfen #
New recruitment ad? Be an RCMP officer, you can commit crimes and keep your job: http://www.nationalpost.com/st…..id=2332276 #
Really Alberta Liberals, this is a scandal for you guys? http://www.calgarysun.com/news…..42391.html #
@ffejery to be clear, I asked the question because I haven't seen the building. It's been too long since my last Kingston trip. in reply to ffejery #
@ffejery that's why I asked the question. So far, 1 in favour of Centre, 1 in the middle(?), none opposed. in reply to ffejery #
Today's @globecampus article on Queen's fiscal sit: http://tgam.ca/FNG The Queen's Centre is nice, but is it necessary @queensu tweeters? #
@queensprincipal do you ever take off the scarf? #
@durocast thanks in reply to durocast #
@durocast stream of www.y105radio.com tonight in reply to durocast #
Suggests you follow @helenegoderis editor of @the_newspaper. #
I love Sunday night radio. Prince (Little Red Corvette) and then Sarah McLachlan (I will remember you) #
@alox by HR, you mean Human Resources. She could have a UN Human Rights complaint; but she doesn't seem the secretive type. in reply to alox #
@FlyingDan I'm going to replace that section with a graphic banner over Christmas. in reply to FlyingDan #
@StephGunther it be great if @alexsevigny did that; it makes me week easy covering a national story happening locally. in reply to StephGunther #
@alexsevigny congrats; hopefully your students will find Sunday to be a favourable day for your marking. in reply to alexsevigny #
@helenegoderis if it were not for you, I'm suggest we ban American students to be safe. BTW, love the pic except one detail 🙂 in reply to helenegoderis #
First blog post on the new (under construction) joeycoleman.ca: Higher education news round-up http://bit.ly/8bsqFk #
@adamriggio yes, spelling fail again on my part. in reply to adamriggio #
@nursekama says she's going to be updating this page: http://www.nursekama.blogspot.com/ First time in 7+ mths, looking forward to it. #
Really? Can't we have fun in life? Gal resigns after sending email asking people to vote on sexist male in office http://tinyurl.com/ydmnxkj #
@danigirl1987 sequins, that's what they are called. I'll stick to "shiny object" in reply to danigirl1987 #
@danigirl1987 tells you how much I know about shoes. I have three pairs; walking, running, and dress. All are black and comfortable. in reply to danigirl1987 #
@emmagodmere @danigirl87 give me a $5 pair of white heels, a glue gun, and some glitter and I'll save you $75. Women and shoes – no cents 🙂 in reply to emmagodmere #
@danigirl1987 @wolfewylie sounds like it was a good party last night in reply to danigirl1987 #
Disabled my Facebook account today; didn't feel I was getting much out of it. Going to return in Jan with a plan for using the site. #
