Just paid my last AmEx charge card bill that has daily expenses on it. I am funneling money to the Chase CO debit card and getting miles for gas and such instead. If I do enough little stuff like this, the debt load will be gone before my goal date.

I just read something indicating that it only appears on your page that the person is following you - they don't actually see your tweets in their timeline.

I'm guessing in their backend, two things normally happen:

1) @user1 sends follow request to @user2. If approved, @user1 sees @user2's tweets (and most people automatically accept follows)
2) When @user2 approves the request, they're added to @user2's followers list.

What's happening, I think, is that #2 is happening by itself. If @user1 never requested to follow @user2, and @user2 sent a bogus "accept", @user1 just shows up in the "following" list, without actually following @user2, because #1 never happened.

In any case, my timeline still shows all of the tweets I'd expect it to.

It was staggeringly beautiful in GGG on Saturday and Sunday as well. Saturday afternoon was so nice we decided to build a potato cannon.

Northern Wales or further south. If north try something around Chester. If in the South try Bristol or further inland Bath but you'll have to deal with the toll bridges for anything down there.

We're now talking about not going (to the Ryder Cup) because of not being able to use valuable :rolleyes: MR points, which I really need to get rid of. We don't want to drive/train/bus whatever hours each day just to see it, so I think we'll go back to plan A and just hit Ireland for a few days this summer.

It's the call after that where the boat oar will be needed. And it's with the same people. :rolleyes:

The weekend was nice down here as well. However, we're back to summer :rolleyes: in regards to the weather.
