It is forty-one years to the weekend since I was a petrified nine year-old, terrified that the asteroid Icarus was about to plummet into the planet Earth. Today, the day when I choof off to the Sydney Film Festival for "Wake In Fright", is the day when Twitter has been calculated to melt down. According to twitpocalypse.com, the end is nigh at approx 1320GMT (that's 11.20pm in eastern Australia, or about the time @rabbitohs is due to tweet the full time score of the #nrl from Perth).

There's only one solution: Quick, off to Bunnings (eng-us translation: Home Depot) for more signed integers!
