Penny, Jose Canseco is all sorts of crazy with his tweets. I follow Jesus and have his tweets sent to my phone just so I can say that I got a text from Jesus. I don't respond though. He never replies just like someone else I could mention.

The Iron Sheik is pretty damn funny.

I've been friends with the writer since Jr High. She is excited and perplexed by this instant access we have to celebs that we've never had before via Twitter. I'm some cases it's not good (Charlie I'm Batshit Crazy Sheen) and in other cases it's great like Wayne Coyne. TTT is a great guy, very down to earth, and pretty funny.

My personal twitter highlights included a DM from Chris Hardwick and Edward James Olmos, who also follows/ed one of my lists.
I'm surrounded by assholes

My other brush with celebs was a back and forth with Jesus and Mary Chain and a couple retweets. Not sure if that's really them or someone in their entourage. Either way, it was cool

I don't know why, but I got rather excited when Yoko Ono started following me. Also, James Gunn - director of Slither had a conversation one time. Oh, the best one was when Fake Fred Schneider retweeted me. I'm such a dork.

My favorite day on Twitter was receiving direct messages from Two Tone Tommy AND Johnny Quaid within an hour of each other! 
The fact that my heart's beating is all the proof you need.

Nice!  And to think I have not logged in to my twitter account in a few months and have never tweeted.  A situation I must remedy.

I'm going to have to give twitter another try!  Nice thread.
