Twitter Alert
Heartbroken as [I] went to the Faisal Base Karachi today, hoping to get onto an aircraft with relief goods, doctors, media for real life stories of people affected. But the airbase after committing transport cancelled [it at the] last minute. Hundreds of people in Jacobabad waiting for our arrival disappointed. No issue, tomorrow we go by road.
[I have] been out of network for the past four days. Feel isolated but definitely inspired. I finally have page one of the film.
Feeling utterly blah and let down. Pulling up my socks and going to focus on work. That’s the only thing that stands by you unconditionally.
$200 million aid for flood-hit Pakistan provided by US. $20 billion compensation for oil spill hit Gulf coast demanded by US.
According to Twitter, Hugo Chavez has a BlackBerry. I feel technologically challenged.

Looks like I have some new plans on Wednesday. I will be able to introduce the “American Idol” judges panel. We will send you a picture.
You can’t play to rumours. You can’t let hate beat you down. You need to know who you are and kill them (haters) with kindness. Take the high road. Positive energy.
Best way to unwind after a tedious day, a game of Scrabble with Mom. Even more refreshing when I win.
Was watching Karate Kid. Loved the film. Have been seeing all of them for years and they never fail to make me love kids even more.
