@saramg @sean Those might be the most amazing "American fries" I've ever seen. When I think of American fries or Freedom fries, I think soggy McDonald's fries.

@outofcontrol Would be nice if the US did something to get out in front of it as well.

@stevegrunwell The fan will be there whether you acknowledge it or not. You're not going to be shit when you hit it, so just enjoy the boost it gives you when you blow past it.

@sebastian I certainly would never submit a talk to a conference a second time if that was how I found out I was not selected!

@ramsey I'm thinking the same thing!

@ramsey One of my buddies used to work for Microsoft and quit to drive a Zamboni. He's so much happier now, even with the *huge* pay cut. I can see myself doing that when I decide to retire, but the hamster wheel of capitalism makes that a far-off goal.

@ramsey I make the same resolutions every year, thus I make yearly revolutions.

@saramg Wow, that's amazing!
