I had two cigars as a result of Twitter activity in the last week or so.
First up, CAO Cigars sent me an LX2 after I participated in a simple contest via Twitpic. LX2 is shorthand for “ligero times two,” making it a full-bodied smoke. Talk about truth in advertising! I enjoyed this one, but I [...]

John recently set up his neighborhood cigar shop, New Trends Cigars, with a Twitter account. When we stopped in for a smoke Saturday afternoon, we found ourselves explaining Twitter to one of the regulars. This guy has been seeing it talked about on the news and spotted the links appearing everywhere, but he still had [...]

The dealer couple behind us are getting into an argument. Meanwhile, I’ve made $2. Woohoo! #
Almost burned down the next table. #
Need to try harder next time. #
My panel is coming up soon. “Make Prose Work for Your Book” — I think I can fake my way through that. #
2 minutes to panel start, and [...]

10 pages of Tweets has made me glad I went to karate rather than watch the debates. #

Welcome to Illinois, land of random tolls and $4.12/gal gas. Bastards. #
Home. Bed calls. #
Vacation meals and no karate make Mikey a fat man. #
@LordShaper Get the PS3. Then you’ve got yourself a Blu-ray player. #
@Hellstorm Not if you pick up the specials at Best Buy! PS3 is also our standard-def player now. Less clutter [...]

Wondering what keeps setting off neighbor’s floods. Don’t see anything big over there. Maybe the Cthulhu bullfrogs I keep hearing? #
Party rocked, btw. Thus no tweets. If I had time for Twitter, that may have indicated a lame party. This does not happen at Journey’s End. #
Back is killing me this AM. Glad to be [...]

Just learned of the Four Little Ponies. Poor suckers. #
@BrianKeene You CAN, but why would you WANT TO? #
We have returned loaded with party supplies. Tomorrow, PA may just become a smoking crater. #
@kellidunlap So which one are you? #
New air mattress has either developed a small leak or doesn’t like the added weight of [...]

Returning to Journey’s End with a belly full of Smokey Bones BBQ. Fuel for sowing the seeds of chaos. #
Would YOU want to have sex with @BrianKeene in a tent? Didn’t think so. #
Leaving @BrianKeene to chat with the Twitter people. I am taking my wife to the tent. #
