21:16 – Getting hate messages a sign of honour; maturity by being able to laugh at yourself; news still being news if its not new; IRC and Twitter mudslinging whatnot; people getting snippy at me quoting David Letterman’s comments on Aussie Rules football; scoring points if you miss; making fun sounds with buckling spring keyboards; the awesomeness of Unicomp in the US of A and this thing called a sense of humour!

19:18 – Moving lots of blogs into one blog; people like Zombie Plan and Neal from IntoYourHead going the opposite ways; working and living places after university; iTelephone cases and downloading; The Googles and I losing track of core competencies; too much self respect to use Chandler Bing and vacuous people getting angry at Twitter for losing spam followers!

03:18 – This could very well be the greatest episode of the Rubenerd Show of all time. Even though Into Your Head has a spiffy new layout, it just can’t compete with the quality and intelligent discourse of this episode.

12:30 – Clock and calendar silliness; the Queen’s Birthday isn’t the Queen’s Birthday; Queen Elizabeth’s mugshot on Australian coins; blogging about FreeBSD desktop background managers; the de facto one episode a month show; people whinging about too many blog posts; Zombie Plan on useless tweets; MannyTheMailman’s brand new air conditioner; Asia Pacific being ahead of Hawaii; iPhone Apple WWDC speculation; Neal O’Carroll and I suing for the iTelephone name; Elke’s lack of tweets; the world is flat; illegal Dutch pot scenarios and zombies eating skittles.

21:30 – Scaring people who think I’m a chick (ha!); late Friday night train journeys; nostalgia for 2007 Twitterland with Twitterrific; TwitterFon inserting advertisements; moving over to Tweetie on the iTelephone; obsessively using the huge but efficient TweetDeck; and the spectacular cost of mobile phone company text messages!

21:30 – The reason why people hate the iPhone’s keyboard is the reason why I love it; Riverdance keyboard typists; the fun of being a shy introvert; evening walks around Mawson Lakes; the Australian Bicentennial; childhood steam locomotive nostalgia; the New South Wales 3801 streamliner and the Victorian R761; and obsessively wearing out VHS tapes!

20:55 – Fun with dealing with broken corrupt backups, misleadingly labelled auto rent payments and my former webhost Servage now that I’m safely typing this from Segment Publishing!

20:55 – Back in Adelaide again; losing control of RubenerdShow.com for some reason; losing an episode source file again; a silly proposal for an onomatopoeic word to describe places; reminiscing about family trips to Ubud in Bali; our end of year holiday to Singapore; food poisoning isn’t as fun as the brochure said; our new family Christmas holiday ritual; story behind my beautiful shiny new Nikon D60 instead of getting a D40 or D40x; remembering I’m supposed to be keeping episodes under 20 minutes; and a lousy joke about wishing I had Nikon VR on my person!

20:45 – Terribly good jokes told by people who can’t tell jokes; Barack Obama’s inauguration on TV; relieved farewell to Dubbya; more relieved Sarah Palin didn’t win than Barack did; silly thing John McCain said; the American founding fathers; Thomas Jefferson on church and state; getting a Nikon D60 for Christmas; pixel density is more important then megapixels; my old FinePix S9600; how bridge cameras compare to real single lens reflex (SLR) cameras; realising shows shouldn’t be recorded at 2am; an exciting new hobby and discovering green tea is… green tea!

21:00 – You’ve joined me at a tremendously exciting moment; unabashedly ripping off IntoYourHead; microwaving coffee after I said you shouldn’t; Family Guy; Germans can make better Christmas food than the French; family trip to Europe in 1998; asking for the bathroom with sign language; Frankfurt am Main; time speeding up as you get older; Melbourne since 1990; remembering primary school; flag carriers and whatnot; Tom Keene talking about ridiculously expensive bottled water with David Zetland on Bloomberg on the Economy; the political compass thingy; and a Paul Shaffer smoke alarm!
