just did my first FB ad. anyone have experience with this?
@sfstagewalker yes I did mine pretty tightly focused (brains!)
I now know, with a strong degree of certainty/confidence, what I do. It's just been called by other names for years.

@Harold where is this rocket city?
Really happy to hear that Rio gets the Olympics. Too bad Barra de Tijuca is the focus. That's LA's version of "the valley".
Hey @jsfuncity. What r your thoughts on 2016 Rio? Opportunity to rent out your casas for cash?
@mactavish it's the "safe" part of Rio.
@Harold is there really no speed limit? do ppl really drive fast? *considering*
Finished up the exec summary for my branding exercise. Really happy with it. Truly reflects all facets of me. My eternal golden braid indeed
Totally excited to see Rashomon at the NuArt this weekend thanks to @janusfilms! Join me: http://bit.ly/13tHYB

RT @johnperrybarlow: To save the world, we'd do well to reduce our obsession with negative consequences & focus more on positive innovation.
I do nothing half-assed.
Zombies are hanging in the back room of he hive. Come join us for a cocktail and hello.
We kicked ass if i do say so myself!
cindy lauper and the goonies ftw!!!!
The Film Rashomon: Such a simple story, and yet, complex in the telling. A masterpiece reflecting humanity.
Go Goth. RT @mktgdouchebag: If I were building a social network to last, I'd target either Deadheads or goths. Those subcultures never fade.
I have filed my inboxes. Here's hoping that nobody will email me. :)
Also, I lost my GTD notebook sometime in the past few days. Feel totally lost without it...
I need to find a day spa type of thing for with the guys. (And no, not a men's day spa.)
Have you seen this Social Media "guru" @mktgdouchebag (http://bit.ly/kG0VH)? (via @SexToyJenn)
I always feel inspired after @thework101 sessions. We've completed my initial branding exercise and moving on to marketing strategies now.
Interested in Personal Branding? I have 2 spots left in my initial personal branding workshop. Contact me if interested. Pre-launch prices.
@twistedcat not really. analogy: korean day spa is to women (like me), as ??? is to men (my associates). (gun range, strippers, beer, ???)
@mktgdouchebag bwahahaha. what does that make me? what is an anti-social media guru called?
@carolinebosher hmmm. London. How many folks in London would be interested? If big enough demand, I will come and teach it. :)
@mktgdouchebag not out of touch. transcends brands. I guess that's just adbustering....
Also @mktgdouchebag Re: Goth & Deadhead social network target market. Don't forget the Burners! (modern day deadheads) tribe.net lives!
@mktgdouchebag um... mary jane perhaps?
@mktgdouchebag have you seen the new ritz cracker box?
@mktgdouchebag no one to rebel against at home (cause they are no longer at home)? these are (not serious) questions for @zephoria.
@mktgdouchebag Only RITZ crackers on it. No BS marketing, cartoons, value propositions, cross/up sells. Crackers pure and simple. I <3 it.
@mktgdouchebag my boyf (@theboyf) said it was a new design theory hearkening back to the 50s. I hope it sticks too. Simple clear marketing.
sometimes an apology is all that is needed. (to others, to self)
@llangit be ruthless!
I forgot to mention. @theboyf was interviewed for TV yesterday! Just wanted all you to know that my nonweb2.0boyf is a rockstar too!
@aturkus what's your favorite floyd song?
Cool Toy Story Mashup (http://bit.ly/2rjTVv) I like it when big corporations embrace media evolution (even if limited to their own content).
Playing beegees and red hot chilipeppers at astro burger before heading over to class @machineproject

Sounds cool RT @scifirules: Neil Gaiman wants you to help him write a story on Twitter #scifi http://bit.ly/g7T2I
I wish I never started reading doom and gloom future possibilities. We are already post-post-apocalyptic.
So happy the rain is finally here. Wash away all the grime!
And with the rain - finally an excuse to make a pot of beef, barley wine stew. It's simmering while I get some work done.
goat/sharp grilled cheese sandwich with homemade beef barley soup on a rainy day is divine.
You know what universe - right now would be a good time to send some paid work my way. you know - like all the paid work i refer.
We are living in the post-apocalyptic future already. Great article about the future by @martinboz: http://bit.ly/1MYN5k

@kayeporter that was an awesome day of "productivity"

Omfg! We r scoring so great at the clothing swap!!!
I feel like giving up on the world again - and all the people in it too. But must put on my performance face.
If you want to see Zombies without Borders, I suggest you catch us at Cannibal Flower - 5797 Washington Blvd, Culver City Tonight. 11pm
@SamL um, LA is full of fucking idiots tonight. Wish I was where you are.
@shesgeeky travel to DC is impossible when I can't pay rent.
Oh and the dog ate the entire effing package of pastries while I was out.
on the bright side: the show does go on. and the crowd appears to love us. I guess we are doing something right.
woke up, it was a Chelsea morning...

Why is it so difficult for city owners to put their dogs on a leash?
time for some pretzel logic, cause any major dude will tell ya.
@benjyfeen I don't get that analogy at all. My rescue does not deal well w any dogs running up to him and hinders his socialization.
@benjyfeen whose fault/responsibility is it when my leased rescue dogs attacks yappy unleased dog?
@benjyfeen gotcha. it just stresses me out b/c I try to do the right thing. I don't want to see any dog hurt, even those of stupid owners.
@benjyfeen good for you. yes, then you know the stress. :)
made my version of chicken cacciatore, mashed potatoes lala, sauteed fresh veggies and a long (red) bottle of wine......
RT @SamL: The day you stop listening to and learning from other people is the start of an irreversible downward path to obsolescence.
@SamL hahahh. that's great. I love our governator.
what is up with the archive button on gmail (with multi-inbox view)? It keeps switching from remove this label to archive which doesn't work
Nice io9 article about the apocalypse in literature: http://bit.ly/TZ2tf
finished fando y lis last night. so many things now make sense to me re: satyricon, jodorosky's later work, sargasso & surrealism of the 70s
Thought fando y lis was jodorosky's baby work, and he really expanded similar concepts in his later films. Still shocking today. Kudos.

I am so not inspired this Halloween. And I have a closet full of costumes. My mind is in a completely different place.
