INQUIRE ABOUT ADVERTISING ON THE ADD BLOG

The ADD Blog by Alan David Doane, What You're Missing on My Twitter Feed

What You’re Missing on My Twitter Feed

Here’s a roundup of my recent tweets on Twitter (slightly edited and remixed for clarity here on my blog). I’d love it if you’d follow me on there; you can do so via my Twitter profile page.

Watchmen 2 comics: Bad idea, and a shitty move, DC. I will lose respect for anyone involved. Just because it’s legal doesn’t make it right.

It’s funny how if my wife had a Twitter feed I would read it religiously, and yet I don’t think she could even find mine.

I remember the first time I ever heard The Beatles on the radio. My mom was driving in St. Augustine; Penny Lane came on and blew my mind.

She bought me the blue greatest hits LP within an hour. One of the greatest gifts she gave me, and there were many. Star Trek. Comics. Life.

Library Of America is like the Criterion Collection of books.

Anyone else think this report of “wild zoo animals” attacking people is a cover-up for a zombie outbreak?

Dumbest comics-related question I think I have ever seen: “Isn’t Ann Nocenti really Roy Thomas?”

Another TRAGEDY as an Indy car driver is killed in a crash during a race going 220 MPH. If only it somehow could have been avoided. If only.

There’s an appealing irony in the fact that the U.S. is ending its immoral war in Iraq because it doesn’t want to be liable for its actions.

“I think bold conservatism will save the country.” - Sean Hannity. For “bold” substitute “cruel.” For “conservatism” substitute “thuggery.”

American Exceptionalism: The idea that everyone should play fair and act legally, except us.

A real editor is the partner and servant of the writer.

I hate when someone writes a blog post and says they wrote a blog. It’s like writing a newspaper column and saying “I wrote a newspaper.”

A blog is a medium of expression, like a book, a movie or a magazine. The individual posts comprising it are “posts,” not “blogs.”
