From the easter bunny @ Burgundy Room http://instagram.com/p/XjMCJgpvSC/
There's at least three rabbits and a cowboy in this bar. Typical Hollywood.
So this Easter Bunny was in the bar... and then this photo happened. Cc blazenhoff wish you were here… http://instagram.com/p/XjVz5mpvZ2/
RT @macengr: Good stuff from @heathervescent The Experience of a Transaction: at Tedx Zwolle http://feedly.com/k/YZF6nC
RT @Blazenhoff: Friends who leave Burma Superstar leftovers in my fridge are always welcome back. Thanks @heathervescent !
@Blazenhoff I opted against the lamb curry because I know your preference! Enjoy!
@ajreijnders Thank you! Happy to be of service!
RT @ajreijnders: @heathervescent Thank you Heather for this clear overview in the world of transactions ! @ajreijnders #tedxzwolle
@seancarasso I have played around w/ relay rides, but I haven't used it yet. DM me contact info & I can share more vehicle details.
Way back, way back, way back, way back, now there you go, there you go, there you go, there you go http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3ZAGBL6UBA
@Blazenhoff Good thing you got the lowdown on it this weekend. ;) :LOL @TewingTewing
I'm so sick of the phrase, "for security purposes"
@nelz9999 oh I know. the convenience of raping my data soul.
LA Superior court may get a cacophonist in the jury tomorrow. Or I might merely hang out all day in the courthouse. #juryduty
@Radiskulls ah thanks.
Evenings with Autechre and Mouse on Mars.
Inspired and ready to chop wood and carry water. Life goes on.
@ericgarland I've been meaning to do a systems map on how the subscription revenue model caused the recession. Or at least contributed.

I love the bass line on this song. Someone should really do a punk version of it. http://rd.io/x/QVP_nDdyF-M/ #hall&oates
Dear @geminica thank you for the ELO. It continues to provide a boon. Miss you!
The future is a 24/7 Air Supply Burning Man camp. #eventhenightsarebetter
@LSchlehuber Fascinating... let me percolate on it.
If no one is tweeting about out check splitting conversation, its a missed opportunity.
It's quail o clock in the Mojave. I'm watching three pairs of desert quail walk across my front "yard".
Seasons of the desert: night, day, wind, stillness
I used to have a 2+ hour one-way commute in Silicon Valley. Now I have a ~3 hour drive from the door of one house to the other.
@cascio @localrat @nraford I saw a list on a wiki-like page a while back. Will see if I can dig it up.
@localrat this is one on my level by @mungopark52 and Blueprint.tv for VirginMedia http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEXEonTlfT0 cc @cascio @nraford
@robtow Gorgeous visions of desert spirits. I hope you are healing well, shedding skin for the new.
Fascinating! MT @FuturityNews: @UOregonNews study says animals don't get credit in the shaping of society, but should http://ow.ly/jU6dl
Articles to sell books. Articles as book excerpts. Books as stretched out articles. le sigh.
I love this atypical LA weather so much.
Just had amazing customer service from @IntuitInc. I'm certain it's cause my guy is a @USAA member (& knows what good cust svs is)
@Cruftbox wish I was lunching w/ you too! Lunch tomorrow?
Crash - smash. Admit it guys, you love a good financial roller coaster.
"Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight" such an amazing song!
RT @WorldFutureSoc: WordBuzz: Rotique http://www.wfs.org/futurist/2013-issues-futurist/may-june-2013-vol-47-no-3/wordbuzz-rotique (thank you, @heathervescent and @localrat)
I continue the ELO marathon with a new world record. It's so fine!
I have achieved INBOX ZERO! (for the moment)
Everyone is still missing all of what I find the most interesting point about bitcoin. They are not futurists.
@sblackmoore have you seen any videos of my talks? I always mention Bitcoin and my opinions in them. :)
@sblackmoore here's the tedx one: http://www.heathervescent.com/heathervescent/2013/03/tedxzwolle.html and there's another one here http://www.heathervescent.com/heathervescent/as-presenter.html
@sblackmoore and I much prefer giving the talks than watching a video of me giving them afterwards. :)
@sblackmoore damn, I just bought the kindle version cause I thought it was ab time to read yr stuff. I'll swap ya coffee/drink 4 city of ...
@sblackmoore Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed. Name your poison & we'll figure out a swap time. What's your take on BC?
I remain at INBOX ZERO!
@sblackmoore yup yup! all ways to use it.
@sblackmoore Do-ocracy. the people building/using the currency decide how the currency can be used. Non-hierarchical cooperation. Anarchism.
@sblackmoore totally following you here.
Called it years ago #futurist MT @jowyang Expect a flood of Bitcoin copy cats to emerge, flooding market with virtual currency.
@sblackmoore that's not the craziest/most amazing thing about Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a template for many more currencies. Interop Exchanges.
@sblackmoore but I'm certain most people don't even see the template and will attempt to "copy" it. They don't have to copy it.
@sblackmoore sure that's a possibility, but there are so many more/different values to create currencies around.
@sblackmoore Here's a future vision (from 2010) http://www.heathervescent.com/novenify/ (check the payment tab)
@sblackmoore beyond reputation. shared values. like recycling, or local businesses or puppies or libertarianism.
@sblackmoore I'm finding it difficult to communicate in 140char. sorry. not trying to be vague or fragmental.
@sblackmoore so maybe that drink sometime then...
Dear people interested in #bitcoin. @sblackmoore and I just had an interesting conversation about it here. it was not hashtagged
Roses & Iris: the scent of loveliness a week ago; today: putrid. That's a metaphor for something.
@robertobrien sweet!
RT @berkun: How is anyone not themselves? #ihearthuckabees
@sblackmoore @IsobelCarr soon, there will be a car app for that. (duck and run out of the convo)
@robertobrien Thank you!
My attempt for a quiet night at home painting my nails has been foiled. Hollywood calls.
@IsobelCarr @sblackmoore watergun option? I had a colleague who would throw a banana peel at someone everyday.
Hey @ilainie we need you for mandrag stat!
@busynessgirl everything is temporary. :)
Upstream Color. Upstream Color. Upstream Color. Today!
Decided to put Amaretto in the cake I'm making. The kitchen smells amazing!
Hair still smells of wood smoke - even after shampooing. That was a fine and smoky party.
Spent the morning with a necromancer in bed - thanks to @sblackmoore

I'm just one more character in the diner this morning. #laliving
Just got the Ducati tuned up for riding!!
@MykalBurns I had no idea you rode! What do you have?
@sblackmoore it was sooooo good. I was on like a 5 day binger. I have to know though, is he related to Scott Crane, Tim Powers' Fisher King?
Took my Korean Spa experience to a whole new level today. 3 words: carpet steam cleaning.
@sblackmoore they don't let guys into the ladies side!!!!
@MykalBurns totally. I need to go up to the Crest and wear in my new front tire.
@sblackmoore a bit more rudimentary technology was used. I'm sure your imagination can fill in the gaps. ;)
Just landed the most awesome space in Chicago for the APF Professional Development Seminar in July. So excited!
Those people attacking/making fun of people who have different beliefs from them are just as bad as the people they are attacking/belittling
Apparently today is the day I connect people & help them get jobs/work/make their dreams come true. I hope the universe returns the favors.
@ericgarland you think they've all been captured by John Galt or something?

Friends, a dog, an RV. A Sunday afternoon roadtrip.

Its coyote hour in the Mojave.
Watched a yellow orange slice moon set at 3:30 am. Quiet desert. Stars lighting the sky. And then a single streak of fire across the sky.
Monday morning: views of the Mojave with coffee. A cool breeze blows through the screen. Its already over 80 degrees. I relax.
Sounds of Amboy 93 degrees: heat expanding metal, train whistle, bomb echos, panting dog, the wind. Silence descends.
This is the beginning of a beautiful RV-lationship.

@nelz9999 I hate that. Play whack-a-mole with them.
Awesomeness is coming back to your computer & finding all your tabs for new motorcycle gear open.
Futuristic cocktail attire from the year 2027 - I can do that! I wonder if they'll kick me out. ;)
@HeatherSchleg it's all in the editing - taking things out of context.
@HeatherSchleg What Hollywood Execs & Producers lack in creativity, they make up in editing together slop. They can make anyone look crazy.
I love driving the empty LA streets blasting Def Leppard. Thanks @pinkyracr for the excuse for a midnight drive.
@CDurnez Thanks for the shout out! How are things going?
Why it's important to use a "professional" vs self-claimed futurist, part 1: the need for certification: http://profuturists.org/blog?mode=PostView&bmi=1274288
@Urbanverse thanks FGM!
+100 MT @gregorylent the #1 requirement for a futurist, professional or otherwise, is an elevated state of consciousness. rather rare.
@gregorylent completely agree with you. There remains work for all levels of consciousness along the spiral. Refinement happens.

I have the best friends and business partners. Our meetings are screaming matches with bursts of laughter.
OH: Nigerians are good looking people but not 500 euro good looking.
I hope all my business meetings go like tonight's. That was a blast with Chocolate Cake.

If anyone is curious, the moon looks fucking amazing here in LA. Ivory rising in slate sky.
Morning meditations with Ulrich Schnauss makes me think anything is possible. The soundtrack for an epic life.
@giyom totally! Any chance you'll be at IIW May 7-9? And want to catch up? It's in Mountain View.
Indeed! How goes things on your continent? RT @rightfuture: @heathervescent If you're in LA, wouldn't be Mr Mojo rising?
@dgwbirch thank you Mr. Birch! Hope we can catch up soon!
If the mainstream media is talking about Bitcoin, that means Bitcoin is mainstream. There remain radicals on the edge.

Strangely, I miss installing client software. Just did this for the first time in probably a year.
