Welcome to My New Blog!

Howdy and welcome! I've been on Twitter now since December of 2008. As I've been tweeting and following tweets over the past year and a half, I've come across some really wonderful quotes and words of wisdom. With all these wonderful gems, I've always tried to retweet or favorite them so I would have a record thinking they would someday make a nice collection of quotes. Now I've decided to put together all these collected tweets into this blog and as I continue to collect more great tweets I will put them all here for posterity.
