I realize I am late to the party but I have become mildly obsessed with Twitter.
Many pundits have condemned Twittering as the death of literate conversation.
I call shenanigans and suggest said pundits may have a vested interest in overly long verbiage which wastes time and burns up precious, precious word counts by which many -- both aspiring and professional -- writers are paid handsome, handsome sums.
RUSTY TROMBONE!
I'd have been paid anywhere between fifty cents and two dollars for typing RUSTY TROMBONE from any reputable journal. It means nothing except for a quick way to earn enough for one of those newfangled coffee drinks.
RUSTY TROMBONE!
Another Starbuck's latte coffee drink.
Most writing contains too many needless words. The reason I can't get through the first page of James Joyce's 'Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man" is -- not my limited attention span -- but the fact it should have been called ''young man artist pic LOL'
The fact I am getting practice at cutting my thoughts down to 140 characters will spare you, gentle reader, several precious seconds of your life. The fact that I have to cut my thoughts down to 140 characters (including spaces) per post spends more minutes of my life than most non-writers would believe.
I love the fact I can write real time reviews of movies/TV shows/music I am listening to at the moment. Mona Lisa Smile sucks!
The only drawback is I no longer get paid for spouting my ill-informed opinions ... Hey wait ...
If you read this ... Please send me three dollars and twenty-five cents.
It is only fair.

Money collected so far -- $3.25. Thank you Barb. It feels so good to be a professional writer again.
Can I send in a pledge like a telethon?
Phone lines are open now. Anything we collect after I get myself a bottle of Scotch and a pack of smokes goes to help ... I dunno ... poor kids somewhere.
Hey, I didn't sign up to help those damn poor kids. What kind of racket are you running here? I expect all of my hard earned recession proof loonies to go toward booze and smokes only.
