He's making up for all those nights he missed.

Evening folks! Anyone here (besides Liscab, heh) old enough to remember ASCII art?

Smart cars can park in tight spaces. Tweets are tight spaces for telling stories. Smart and BBDO use these facts to maximum advantage in this fun and effective effort that turns the auto brand's Argentinian Twitter feed into a stop-motion "commercial" made of 450-plus tweets (of 140 characters or less, naturally). You can see the effect in the video below, but it's better to go to Smart Argentina's Twitter page and play around. Use the "J" key to scroll forward and "K" to shift into reverse, and watch an animated Smart car (created with ASCII images) tool down a bustling city street and cleverly park between two other vehicles.

You can view their twits here ...

But, IMO, the animation they put together is more fun!

If you don't "GET" ASCII art, you're forgiven. If you do, I think you'll get a kick out of this smart Argentina Twitter bit. I don't twit. But, you can see the individual twits at the link above the video.

Not close enough.......but we have great storm spotters here and a scanner so we know where the storms are at all times.

 

[JustaGuy]

Wow! Grand entry, NCC!

Sun was asking about you earlier. We told her you were here last night.

 

[NCC]

Did somebody mention stormy weather?

 

[Fudgey]

That's cool NCC!!! You got here to late.....

Time for me to go to bed. Goodnight Jag and NCC

What if it's the middle of the night and you're asleep? You have sirens too, right?

 

[Fudgey]

We have storms here in OK. I am hoping we don't have to get up in the middle of the night.

Story of my life Fudgey. Night!

I wish you could shove them down here to me. Nothing severe I hope. Enjoy if you can.

We do have sirens but we can't hear them very well in the house. So we have a weather radio that goes off as soon as a thunderstorm warning is issued. DH will get up and look at the radar.

Sorry, NCC! Where you been?

We had a lot of people visiting tonight. Lisa even posted with one hand after shoulder surgery!

We had a couple of tornadoes south of here. Just a few injuries thank goodness.

Well, it's still better than earthquakes that give no warning.

We just had a 6.0 quake in the ocean off the coast, but 250 miles from shore.

 

[NCC]

I just checked out the radar out Oklahoma/Missouri way. Looks like it has mellowed out, at least a little. The storms that remain at this time don't look too scary. But, ya never know, I reckon.

 

[Fudgey]

Earthquakes......

DH just told me we would go to my office building, it would be much safer there. We are in the high risk area for storms tomorrow evening around 7pm.

Okay.......going to bed now.

 

[NCC]

Night Fudgey. I would be happy to take your storms off your hands.

Sleep well, if you can.


EDIT: Oh, I see some purple now. OK. A little scary.
