Selection of My Twitter Favorites, Edition 20

Twitter is a microblogging service where people answer the question "What are you doing?" via 140-character messages from their cellphone, laptop or desktop. You can select the messages you find useful, amusing, or both. Here is the 20th edition of My Twitter Favorites (the oldest post is at the bottom, the newest at the top):

grahamwalker I hate it when you've been sick so long you can't figure out if your chills are chills, or it's just cold outside.
