Looking forward to going home to Connecticut this week and having an actual white Christmas! I'm sure I will be sick of snow 20 min. later.
Yeah, I feel ya - i'll be back in NH thursday for a week... already dreading it - Chris Heath
Cool, have a nice Christmas Veronica - Fee501st from iPhone
I don't like winter very much but it wouldn't be the same without snow. - Sylvain Nadeau
I'm in Central Mass....waiting for snow and already sick of it - Phil B.
Best of luck with flights. Say hi to NY for me. - Dave Friedel from Android
Are you going dark this week or would a week without tech lead to withdrawals? I think I'd be 5150'd around day three... - Thomas from FreshFeed
she has her iphone, as long as the battery will last... dun dun dunnnn... - Fee501st
I'm expecting her to make tech gadgets out of snow once she cracks. - Carlos Urrutia
its been snowing here on LI NY for hours now and its a mighty blizzard and a Northeaster to boot - VAL D. Zone
They do have broadband in Connecticut. It's not like it's off the grid. If she's not at home, she'll be in a snowy Dunk. Most of them have free wifi. - Dave Friedel
We're going to NYC. I'm really looking forward to it, and kind of glad it may be white, but I'm not looking forward to the cold temperatures. California has seriously thinned my blood. Highs in the low 30s sounds scary. - Laura Norvig from iPod
@Dave LOL, yes we have broadband here in CT and run on Dunkin'. :-) - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
I used to live in Providence, the center of the Dunk universe. - Dave Friedel
snow tends to lose its charm after a while... - WarLord
Veronica
Awesome. Apparently I am not showing up in some people's Twitter timelines.
Yea, you dissapear from mine from time to time, normaly I reloaded tweetdeck and it fixes it. - Fee501st from iPhone
Sigh. - Veronica
Yeah, I was wondering how you were blocking yourself from my timeline. :( - Jason Wong
This is very annoying to me. - Veronica
yes. I thought it was tweetdeck at fist, but its not. she just does not seem to be refreshing right now on my timeline. - Carlos Urrutia
At least you're in the biz and know who to call... - Jason Wong
Ghostbusters? - Carlos Urrutia
How does Twitter expect you to command your minions with bugs like these? - Paul Reynolds
And yet there sometime is some kind of double post in Facebook - Jerry Perez
I don't tweet so I would not know - VAL D. Zone
That's a pain. I can't say I've noticed your disappearing act, but I use brizzly, I dunno if that makes a difference. - Amy
Amy: did you see her tweet about answering as eric cartman? :) - Carlos Urrutia
Carlos: Yup - Amy
Don't worry Veronica, Sarah's and Felicia's does it to. - Fee501st from iPhone
Amy: weird. maybe its only affecting some of us then. - Carlos Urrutia
Maybe one of their servers is on the blink or something. - Amy
i guess so. still, annoying though :) - Carlos Urrutia
I had that same problem was @leolaporte. I had to re-follow to get it to show. - Nolan Alston
Hmm. It looks like there are millions of Twitter feeds I'm not showing up in. - aldenoneil
And by minions, I of course mean Fee. - Paul Reynolds
Will you guys let me know if I pop back into your timelines over the next few days? It was a known issue and they've been working on the fix. - Veronica
Will do V! - Fee501st
Pual: I got a direct line red telephone! i don't need twitter. If she says fire the nukes, i press the button - Fee501st
Veronica: Posted anything recently that i can try an check? :) - Carlos Urrutia
within the past few hours, but not recently - Veronica
I see you - Ned Garcia-Mathews
Veronica: last i see on the public timeline was your comment about answering as eric cartman. I'm obviously not counting your replies :) - Carlos Urrutia
Your most recent comment came through :) - Carlos Urrutia
I've noticed that some time ago but I thought it was just me. - Sylvain Nadeau
hi am samer can you add me and how are you - samer jamal
Amy
Amy
You could fry eggs on my laptop after half an hour these days. Stupid fans are unreachable too. #blameDave
thats hot yo! - Fee501st
fo shizzle - Amy
time to get a new laptop then :) - Carlos Urrutia
Well, it would be if I had the money :) - Amy
Maybe you should use the laptop to keep you warm. - Jerry Perez
The cat might get jealous. - Carlos Urrutia
Amy: You need to remove the dust from the heatsink. Use compressed air. - Sylvain Nadeau from iPod
Assuming you have a bad fan: Take it apart... more. Just keep looking for screws. That sounds like a great machine to learn on. Worst case is you broke an old, overheating laptop. Once you full dismantle and rebuild one, you can do it on any laptop. It's not as scary as it appears. - Dave Friedel
Oh and if it turns into a paper weight... #DontBlameDave - Dave Friedel
Sounds like Dave will replace your laptop if you screw it up. Wow, nice one Dave! - Jerry Perez
Yes I'll replace it. I didn't say with what. - Dave Friedel
Dave: It's only 2! I'm superstitious, I don't want to take it apart any more a) because it's badly designed b) because I have terrible luck with these things c) because it's already come back from the dead twice. (Laptops and wine do not mix.) - Amy
Kill it with fire? Ok, I'm out - Mo Kargas
Sylvain: Yeah, I think that's the best option. - Amy
Mo: Not 'killing', cooling :) - Amy
Error - Mo Kargas
Then fry eggs on top of it. - Dave Friedel
Eggs might be messy. Try bacon... - Thomas
Eggs cook at a lower heat though. :) Maybe I could try with one of those microwave poaching dishes... - Amy
Could you make some bacon and toast with that. Mmmmmmmmm. And put the kettle on. - Dave Friedel
Second the compressed air advice. Mine was hitting 95C and switching itself off when gaming. Blew air through it, left it for a bit to let any condensation evaporate. Then next gaming session it didn't even reach 65C. - Ghworg
I'll give it a go :) - Amy
On desktops, I've found drilling holes in their shells actually cools them down and makes them a bit faster. - Itachi
That also works on turtles... - Thomas
lol, alas it's a laptop. I'd say it's a badly designed one too. - Amy
compressed air should definitely work at least a little. - mjc
My laptop would overheat and shutdown by itseft in less than 10 minutes after being powered on. It took me some time to figure out how to fix it. I blew compressed air through the heatsink at the back of the laptop to remove the dust and the overheating problem disappeared. - Sylvain Nadeau
Veronica
Texting "LIFE" to 25383 donates $5 to #ThisAmericanLife. Such an easy way to support one of the best shows in podcasting/radio. #NPR
Done! love NPR! - Fee501st
Will this work if I'm texting from Canada? - Sylvain Nadeau
Sylvain Nadeau: you can just try and see, it sends a confirmation to make sure, if you get a confirmation, you type YES, then it probably worked - Fee501st
Fee: I just followed Veronica's suggestion and donated via PayPal. - Sylvain Nadeau
Amber Mac

Veronica: Doh, there goes my Sonny and Cher suggestion then. lol - Amy
Sweet merciful steve jobs no Barbie Girl please. - Roberto Bonini from iPhone
Veronica
@Googleman81 yeah, not really interested in that kind of thing personally.
When I read the article I immediately knew you wouldn't go for that. - Sylvain Nadeau from iPod
I've been asked a couple of times by difference companies, and it always feels yucky. - Veronica
You should go for it - that way you can get accused of review bias and blow up on one of your shows... http://www.youtube.com/watch... - Thomas

Question: generally how far above and below your own age do you deem acceptable to date? (No particular reason other than curiosity)
I'm married, but I think at my age I would be amazed that anyone would date me. - Fleagle
lol, theoretically then. :) And none of this 'it depends on the person', people, ofc it does - I mean generally. - Amy
I would say +5 and -10 but it also depends on the person's age. If I'm 20 I wouldn't date someone who's 10 years old. - Sylvain Nadeau
Divide by two and add seven for how much younger. Not sure about older. - MVB (Grinch of FF) from iPod
I'm 45 so I would go +/- 6 Years - SCS Watching the Sun
I'm 37, so -10/+5 I think... - Thomas
-15 and +5. I'm shopping for a trophy wife. - Dave Friedel
I dated a 24 year old and I was 46 - VAL D. Zone
I'm thirty. I'd probably go as young as 21 or so, but that would have to be one mature female. I don't have an upper limit. - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
I'd be reluctant to go more than five years in either direction. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
I'd probably do -10/+5 at most. - Carlos Urrutia
Iiiiiiiiiinteresting, and you're all guys, right? On paper I'd probably want to agree with John (dendroica) but...I'm 27 and I definitely don't think I'd go younger than 21, I don't know about up the way, maybe +10. - Amy
I think women in general seem to think '-5/+10' or thereabouts, which is kinda interesting. (Maybe only up to a certain age, mind you. And maybe it's just the women I know. I have one friend who's bf is at least +12, another who's is +10.) - Amy
I would date guys who are 15 years older than me; probably one year younger. - Shevonne
Hehe, so weird that guys/girls are opposites in that way. Although, not surprising. - Amy
minimum: legal age, no maximum - Irma Vermaat
Amy
Amy
Musicians, please note: it is NOT a 'UK tour' if all the dates are in ENGLAND.
LOL - Dave Hodson
Sadly most don't even know the difference. - Amit Morson
Oh no. Is Miley Cyrus on tour again? - Fleagle
Fleagle: LOL - Carlos Urrutia
lol, no, Owl City actually. *awaits ridicule* - Amy
So it's not a "Europe tour" unless every European country is covered? Or a "US tour" if only 20 states are played? :-) - Slappy Line
At least when they say 'European Tour' they don't just mean they're playing France. - Amy
Geography fail! - Christian (Simply X)
Dude Owl City fucking rocks. Don't hate ;) - Itachi
Well, I know, that's why I was awaiting the tour news so I could go see him. :) I don't mean to single him out in particular since his email just says, 'European tour....yadda yadda...starting in the UK' I mean musicians in general, it happens quite frequently. - Amy
That's like a North American tour with 20 dates in the US and 1 in Canada. - Dave Friedel
Yeah, those Canadians would be getting a pretty bum deal there! :) - Amy
Yes, we would. - Sylvain Nadeau
Veronica
Shooting a new web video pilot today!
Oh can you tell us what it about? - Fee501st from iPhone
It's pretty obvious if you think about it :) - Veronica
Gadgets!! or is it GDGTs? - Chris Heath
No, Chris. You must look to the past, and to the future. - aldenoneil
I'm sure its Tech related, hopefully with a video game slant! :D - Fee501st
Something to do with the 'surprise' mentioned on the S&L site? - Amy
I like that idea :) - Fee501st
lol, just thinking outside the box :) - Amy
Speaking of new video. Just found out about this http://womenstechguide.msn.com today. Am I the only one who didn't know about it? - Sylvain Nadeau
We found it the other day :) - Fee501st
I was offline a few times in the last few weeks. I guess I didn't go far enough to see what I had missed. - Sylvain Nadeau
There was a link to the womens guide on FB -- I figured you guys were a little advanced for the videos :) - Veronica
You're going to teach geeks about women? What aspect? The user interface? The skinning system? The hardware? Maintenance? Defragging? - Matthew DeVries
After market customization? Cool paint jobs? God knows they don't need an improved cooling system *thinks about his secretary in her winter coat all damn summer*. - Matthew DeVries
lol, ok, 'defragging' sounds way dirty in that context. - Amy
awesome! - CoreyTess Trujillo
oooooh you guys! - Veronica
Hehe, maturity level in the minus numbers currently :) - Amy
Bad Amy! No Timtams for you :) - Carlos Urrutia from Android
Veronica, as much as I want to, I can't follow everything that you do. Sometimes life gets in the way. - Sylvain Nadeau
I wouldn't say you're exactly the target market for a women's tech guide anyway, Sylvain. :) - Amy
Amy: I know but I might still be able to learn something even if it's only how to explain something to someone who is not as geeky as I am. - Sylvain Nadeau
Ah, very true :) - Amy
Veronica
Time for another giveaway on the 'ol Facebook page! http://www.veronicabelmont.com/2009...
I have a feeling I'm going to win a prize. - Dave Friedel
you wish :) - Carlos Urrutia
I swear, it's like the force. I can sense I am going to win something great. - Dave Friedel
It's possible, Dave. She could be doing all this as a ruse to get your address so she can exact revenge for the cat-lady costume. Don't open the box if ticks... :) - Thomas
1/10000 chance of winning. I like those odds :) - Sylvain Nadeau
I'm telling ya, I'm going to win. It is going to be huge. - Dave Friedel
"Friends and Family of Veronica are not not eligible, void where prohibited, many will enter few will win" There always fine print ;)! - Fee501st
Dave: Were you wafting your hands around and wearing a robe while you wrote that? Coz I don't think Jedi mind tricks will work in this situation... - Amy
Amy: LOL. but it would be impressive if it did :) - Carlos Urrutia
I have foreseen it. I shall win a grand prize and be the envy of all my friends. - Dave Friedel
Oh Mystic Dave, what do you forsee in my future? - Amy
That you will not be winning the contest. ;P - Dave Friedel
I kinda pictured lots of muppets in her future :) - Carlos Urrutia
lol! I was looking for a bit of a broader prediction there - Amy
Veronica
Apparently gin and I are better friends than I originally thought. Vodka, you are so last year.
Oh are you drunk?? Ok, now for some questions... - Dave Friedel
Oh dear. V, don't drink and answer Dave... - Thomas
I want drunken picture uploads... right now. Are you passed out? - Dave Friedel
That would make the uploads difficult. - Thomas
I'm not drunk! - Veronica
Well, she's conscious. - Dave Friedel
Not even slurring... - Thomas
I had three drinks and a big dinner! - Veronica
How big were these mugs of Vodka and Gin? :D - Dave Friedel
Ok Ok Ok... - Dave Friedel
But maybe I shouldn't have tweeted that because now everyone thinks I am... - Veronica
Play up to it... (evil grin) - Thomas
Well, when you mention two different hard liquors in one tweet........ - Dave Friedel
...you're having a good night! I tell ya, that 'don't mix drinks' concept is nonsense. - Amy
Is she drunk now or did she sleep it off already? :) - Carlos Urrutia from Android
3 drinks != drunk - Amy
She could have had more after wards, for "medicinal purposes" of course :) - Carlos Urrutia from Android
Amy: It's not just the quantity of drinks but also how fast you're having them that determine if you're drunk or not. - Sylvain Nadeau
I heard when starts hugging people for no reason, that's when she is drunk ;) - Fee501st
Sylvain: And a boatload of other things. I was an alcohol licensee in a previous job. - Amy
Bombay Saphire Gin rulz! Very smooth so you can drink it straight up or with a little tonic. Great in the summer. Viva la Gin! - echostreamer
glad you had some fun . . . I think I'm like you V, I sip my gin and enjoy it with a little tonic and lime. . . keep having fun and tweet me when you are. G - George Ordway
HENDRICKS GIN...is not for everyone. - Andrew Skretvedt
I love gin! And I'm with echostream, sort of. Bombay Saphire is good straight up or in a martini. If I'm mixing it with tonic then I knock it down the regular Bombay. No use wasting the good stuff with a mixer. - ChiliMac
Casey McKinnon
@paula_rhodes How tall are you? I'm 5'1.75".
Best things come in small packages! - Fee501st
It doesn't really matter how tall you are. What matters the most is what you do and how well you do it. - Sylvain Nadeau
Veronica
I’m totally better than an Olympian (at the hula hoop) - http://www.veronicabelmont.com/2009...
This is your 2nd Hula hoop Video! Very good job Veronica! Too bad its not in the Olympics i sure you would get the gold :) - Fee501st
That should be an event in the Tekzilla Olympics. You'd probably destroy Patrick in this one... - Thomas
I hope Power Supply chucking is in the Tekzilla Olympics! I good at that! - Fee501st
LOL - Veronica
There would have to be some sort of PC assembly competition, too - fastest to build a bootable PC wins... - Thomas
Just saw the the video, and the first video of her showing her mad hula skills :) _Damn_ you're good! :) - Carlos Urrutia
I can't compete. I haven't seen my Hula Hoop in over half a century! - George Brickner
Wow, you're pretty darn good at that. I had no patience for it as a kid - I think I threw ours over a fence in frustration. Probably along with the pogo-stick... - Amy
Amy: You'll probably like the new pogo sticks then. you can REALLY jump on those :) - Carlos Urrutia
Hey, now there is an idea. A video of veronica on a pogo stick. - Carlos Urrutia
Carlos: Nah, I've learnt my lesson: rollerblades etc. = fine, things that require skill = not fine - Amy
Bradley Langerman loves Vernica's comment pages. - Bradley Langerman
Amy Sansom loves cheese. - Amy
John Fillers likes Amy Sansom's loves cheese comment on Veronica Belmont's Friendfeed post. - Fee501st
Amy Sansom likes John Fillers' comment about liking her comment about loving cheese on Veronica Belmont's Friendfeed post - Amy
Carlos Urrutia likes Amy Sansom's comment about John Filler's comment about liking her comment about loving cheese on Veronica Belmont's Friendfeed post. - Carlos Urrutia
Veronica: Nice moves! Personally, I wouldn't last more than 5 seconds. - Sylvain Nadeau
I like cheese - Veronica
Thomas Serio started to like Veronica's liking of cheese in response to Carlos Urrutia's liking of Amy Sansom's comment about John Filler's comment about liking her comment about loving cheese on Veronica Belmont's FriendFeed post, but sadly his hands fell off halfway through typing it... - Thomas
lmao :) - Amy
I'm jealous of the cheese! - Jason Wong from iPod
Veronica you totally rock the friendfeed.com website comment pages. - Bradley Langerman
I doooo? - Veronica
Sylvain Nadeau
Twitter isn't working for me today. Let's see if I can post through FriendFeed.
It's working now. Looks like I didn't miss much. - Sylvain Nadeau
Dwight Silverman
Direct Twitter access is down for me and many others, but I see via FriendFeed & Facebook that some can still post. WTF??
I have the same problem. It seems there's a problem with a router somewhere between us and twitter.com. - Sylvain Nadeau
It's been down for two hours?? I woke up and it's down for me. 2 hours isn't a good sign. I should plan on panicking. - Lise
Veronica
OK folks, how many times we can RT #BeatCancer today? Each tweet with that tag gives $.01 to cancer research http://beatcancereverywhere.com/about...
+1 - Fee501st
Do replies with #BeatCancer count? - Thomas
As long it has #BeatCancer in it, it counts - Fee501st
BTW, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. #BeatCancer - Sylvain Nadeau
I'm trying to #beatcancer too. - George Brickner
Veronica
@arielwaldman well, unfortunately for them, the only awesome thing Verizon has going for them *is* their network.
The funny bit is, their network won't be so awesome should they eventually get the iPhone and everyone who's anti-AT&T swarms them at once... - Thomas
A phone that works when you need it to *is* awesome. - Dave Friedel
Verizon might get swamped when it gets the iphone, but i dont think it will be bad has AT&T im sure not everyone will switch! - Fee501st
I don't get it. Surely AT&T are charging all the iphone users enough to cover the costs of upgrading their network and installing new masts and whatnot? - Amy
Amy: Money is probably not an issue in this case. There are other resources required like qualified personnel. - Sylvain Nadeau
Sylvain: lol, surely they have the money to... Ohh, I see what you're saying, it's run by eejits! ;) - Amy
I don't know, I'm pretty fond of my Verizon Mifi card too! That with my Touch eliminates the need for an iPhone stuck with AT&T. - Happa Haoli
I just love how so many of the iPhone faithful almost take the Verizon commercials personally, as if it's a direct attack on them. God forbid someone pokes fun at the Church of Apple. - Fleagle
Fee: That's the thing - I've not had the connection and dropping issues with AT&T as I did when I was on Verizon (which I was for years). Not saying AT&T hasn't dropped the ball with the iPhone - repeatedly - but outside of *major* cities like SF where congestion is a problem I think a lot of the AT&T bashing is nothing more than folks wacking at the pinata of the month... - Thomas
Thomas: Yea, my AT&T service is good around me, Only complaints is it only EDGE in my area and its spotty at best at my workplace. - Fee501st
Cellular sucks in this country. That's it. I'm so moving to Japan. - Dave Friedel

Probably those illegal things you do for Coffee ;) - Fee501st
