Do you tweet?

I've begun exploring the service for business purposes. Personally, I really do not need another way to communicate with people or express myself. But I am taking the dive and it is kind of entertaining. I have a tab open for it next to FB, these forums, GSIV forums, stock prices, and one tab to browse news/blog sites, Google, Wiki or whatever.

RTs?

Today has a couple of good ones.

‏@SteveMartinToGo (https://twitter.com/SteveMartinToGo) I’m actually quite funny today. It's my Twitter account that isn't.

@StephenAtHome (https://twitter.com/StephenAtHome)
Obama delivered pizza to volunteer campaign workers this weekend. He's obviously preparing for life in the private sector.


Hashtags?

Some shows create hashtags to talk about. I am determined to get one on the Jimmy Fallon show.

Speaking to Stephen Fry on Twitter.

Soon, if my plan goes according, I will invited to his house where I will reside forever. We'll read The Guardian together in the morning and sip Twinning's Tea, guffawing at the silly antics of Gerald, our bald Devon Rex cat, I imagine we rescued together from a sancuary for mistreated animals.
He'll go off to work, in the public eye of his adoring fans and I'll stay at home playing tennis with our tennis teacher Hans from Antwerp. Edging my game up to a skill bound to impress come summer.
When he arrives home most evenings I will already have run him a bath, where he'll relax and tell me about his day.
I'll grit my teeth silently while he tells me of a young man on set he's begun working with whos ''Delightfully charming elegance..'' never fails to invigorate.

As our summer goes on, we'll spend our evenings sat on the balcony rehearsing his lines and feeling the evening air change day to day from a warm breath on the skin to a crisp, slightly biting reminder to retreat inside to our favourite chairs.
We'll laugh at how Gerald chases the occasional moth attracted to the fire and Stephen will pick him up and nuzzle him adoringly while I imagine pushing my fingers into its eyes as far as they will go.
I'll announce I am tired and shall be retiring for the evening and he will bid me a farewell with wishes of pleasant dreams.
I'll maybe get up in the night and peer into Stephens room just to make sure he is sleeping soundly and gaze contentedly at his peaceful face. Wondering .. knowing he is dreaming of me.

So yeah, he Tweeted back to me.

Man, the last time (http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?64493-Twitter) this thread came up Drayal was still posting here. Days go by!

I followed Mother Monster @ladygaga, JaVale McGee's retweets @JaValeMcGee34, and Megan Rapinoe @mPinoe since then.
