Daily Twitter Notes

Sometimes the day does not allow a blog post let alone write about things on my mind or I hear about like economic, political, local news (sports too).

With Twitter, you at least get some of the flavor, a flash moment during the day, of what I am thinking about. You can follow during the day or see the digest below.

Here are the highlights of my recent Twitter activity. If you want to see the full version click MN Headhunter on Twitter

MN Headhunter on Twitter | June 27 - 25, 2008 (last one first):

June 27, 2008

• Twins win again but I fall asleep and do not see victory and now will be up all night. bummer

June 26, 2008

• @fanchatter I like that trade. Mayo was not happy about the TWolves. Dump Walker and Jaric salaries. Lose Jaric's hot girl but that's OK
• ESPN rumor: HOLY SHIT!!!! Mayo, Jaric, Walker and Buckner to Memphis for Love, Miller, Cardinal and Collins
• @Odenized if all I have is Mayo and a logo at the end of this night then I think we hosed ourselves
• #NBA I want to believe the Timberwolves have some grand route planned but again believe that the road is filled with potholes and detours
• #NBA Timberwolves draft another guard? Please tell me a trade of someone is coming around.
• www.twellow.com, very cool to play with.
• #NBA I hope Mayo is a mellow guy who hides his enthusiasm, if that's how he really feels, we are in trouble. L.A. to MPLS can be tough
• #NBA look at that, McFail got one right this time.
• Minnesota Twins on a ROLL. ESPN speculating if Twins will bring someone in for the playoff chase. When was the last time that was asked?
• #NBA: ESPN talking about Wolves at #3. Funny comment on Love, "13% body fat is great if you are a sea lion but not for a NBA player"
• Gopher football fans: Sam Maresh heart valve surgery went well. Hope he has a good recovery. Football would be a bonus.
• Besides the age difference, I wonder if Paula Creamer thinks IT recruiters with a web presence are hot. Can anyone hook me up?
• Negative numbers: Great day for some golfers at the U.S. Open at Interlachen in (Edina) Minneapolis. Horrible day for the stock market.
• MN Headhunter blog: "Recruiter 101 | Getting Started" http://tinyurl.com/6fksad Starting to add content I should have been doing long ago.
• Watching @Animal and @recruitingblogs spar online is funny. They are Canadian. Canadian's don't fight. Maybe they should thumb wrestle.
• @tbrunelle Thanks for the link. Great quote "In truth Wall Street is in for a radical makeover." The dot com bubble was a lesson not learned
• Stock Market: GM at its lowest since 1955. 1955 is not s typo. 10 GM's can buy you McDonalds. Market drops through support level. Bad day.
• #NBA Timberwolves redo logo and uniforms http://twincities.bizjourna...
• Supreme Court strikes down D.C. handgun ban.
• #NBA "With the 3rd pick the Minnesota Timberwolves select..." why do I feel that whatever they do will be the wrong guy? Oh yeah, history

June 25, 2008

• College World Series: Fresno State becomes the lowest seed to win title in any sport. They call themselves "goofballs". Very cool.
• Oh I forgot to say Nader is a f'ing idiot for what he said. There. I feel better now. Back to recruiting.
• Obama responds appropriately to Nader's attention grabbing comment.
• @Animal I care that local tech folks read my blog. I like when recruiter friends do and say nice things but they are not my target audience
• @marenhogan My experience is not how many people read your blog but who. I do not care if my recruiter friends like my stuff tech folks I do
• Wall Street numbers: Oracle does well. Research In Motion with a miss and getting pounded in after market trading
• Fed Res: Rates unchanged. Labor market has softened. Inflation a risk. Slow economy and fear of inflation has them stuck.
