Sometimes, what happens on Twitter shouldn't stay on Twitter
from my friend Brian:
Recently, a book titled *Twitter Wit* was compiled from some of the more entertaining 140-characters-or-fewer posts on the site. Among the highlights in blurbs:
"The baggage carousel sounds a lot more fun than it really is."
"Why should I be the one to take the kids to see their psychologist? I don't even love them."
"Why aren't martini glasses shaped so they don't spill so easily on the bus?"

I'm curious to see whether the editors screened out twitters that were cribbed from Steven Wright and George Carlin. I think their lawyers will be right on this.

You are spot on about that!
My friend told me I should friend her brother-in-law on FB, because his status updates are soooo funny. She read me a dozen of them.
Most of them I recognized from lists of jokes that have been in email curculation for at least a decade.
Her brother in law just removed the >>>>> symbols that clogged the left margin of each joke.
