I told a friend of mine about Tweetdeck, and he told me about HootSuite.

I already dumped and uninstalled Tweetdeck.  HootSuite is web-based.  Nothing 
installed
on your computer.  Plus, a lot more features!

Try HootSuite 2.0. So many cool features it will certainly make your Tweeter

Gregory has always harder on dems. He was a cheer leader for Bush, during the 
run up to the war. There were few hard questions for Bush and company, even 
after it became fashionable to do so. During the primaries, he was all over 
Obama after Iowa, and was not that kind to Clinton. However, he rarely 
criticized the repugs, except for Guliani

Phyllis and I have been discussing Gregory on MTP, and whether he seems to be 
more aggressive with Dems than Republicans, or if it's simply holding the feet 
of those in power to the fire. At times, his stance reminds me of the obviously 
biased Tom Brokaw (sorry to say that). Why do you dislike Gregory?

THE LAWS OF ULTIMATE REALITY 



& Law of Mechanical Repair 

After your hands become coated with grease, your nose will begin to itch and 
you'll have to pee.



& Law of Gravity 

Any tool, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible corner.



& Law of Random Numbers 

If you dial a wrong number, you never get a busy signal and someone always 
answers.



& Law of the Alibi 

If you tell the boss you were late for work because you had a flat tire, the 
very next morning you will have a flat tire.



& Variation Law 

If you change lines (or traffic lanes), the one you were in will always
move faster than the one you are in now (works every time).



& Law of the Bath 

When the body is fully immersed in water, the telephone rings.



& Law of Close Encounters 

The probability of meeting someone you know increases dramatically when you are 
with someone you don't want to be seen with.



& Law of the Result 

When you try to prove to someone that a machine won't work, it will.



& Law of Biomechanics 

The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the reach.



& Law of the Theater 

At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle arrive last.



& The Starbucks Law 

As soon as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee, your boss will ask you to do 
something which will last until the coffee is cold.



& Murphy's Law of Lockers 

If there are only two people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers.



& Law of Physical Surfaces 

The chances of an open-faced jelly sandwich landing face down on a
floor covering are directly correlated to the newness and cost of the
carpet/rug.



& Law of Logical Argument 

Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.



& Brown's Law of Physical Appearance 

If the shoe fits, it's ugly.



& Oliver's Law of Public Speaking 

A closed mouth gathers no feet.



& Wilson's Law of Commercial Marketing Strategy 

As soon as you find a product that you really like, they will stop making it.



& Doctors' Law 

If you don't feel well, make an appointment to go to the doctor, by the
time you get there you'll feel better. Don't make an appointment and
you'll stay sick.



And my favorite:



& Law of Probability 

The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of 
your act.

Gregory has always harder on dems.  He was a cheerleader for Bush,  during the 
run up to the war.  There were few hard questions for Bush and company,  even 
after it became fashionable to do so. During the primaries, he was all over 
Obama after Iowa, and was not that kind to Clinton.  However, he rarely 
criticized the repugs, except for Guliani

Phyllis and I have been discussing Gregory on MTP, and whether he seems to be 
more aggressive with Dems than Republicans, or if it's simply holding the feet 
of those in power to the fire. At times, his stance reminds me of the obviously 
biased Tom Brokaw (sorry to say that). Why do you dislike Gregory?

I wish MSNBC would give him Meet the Press or some other show. I hate David
Gregory. I do not think he will get his own show any time soon, but he does
seem to be moving up the food chain. He is no Tucker Carlson
