An act of kindness can change someone's day. I paid a strangers toll on the bridge today. #tribute2983 911memorial.org/tribute2983/
I just gave up my seat on the train so a family of foreign tourists could all sit together. #tribute2983. Learn more: 911memorial.org/tribute2983/
Getting a defense date on my dissertation is simultaneously the greatest & most terrified I've ever felt.
Speaking of WWI, why the hell is "The Great War and the Shaping of the 20th Century" not available on DVD? Make it happen, @PBS!
How can anyone move into a Trinity House? Just thinking of carrying a Queen sized mattress up those stairs makes me panic. #philly
@poorstruggler Cool, that should work really well. I have Keegan in my office somewhere. Guess its time to dig it out.
@poorstruggler Trying to keep it around 300 max if possible. I can probably Frankenstein some excerpts together too if necessary.
@poorstruggler I thought of Keegan, but how long is it? The class is a freshman seminar on 20th cent wars and we have a lot to cover.
Hey, #twitterstorians anyone have any recs for in-print monographs on the causes of WWI appropriate for non-major underclassmen?
On my way to a diss committee meeting. Afraid its gonna be a Maury-style ambush.
Oh, Mendeley, where have you been all my life? Zotero, we're breaking up #phdtalk
~ Two months until all dissertation requirements are due. Still don't have a firm defense date. This is not a good thing, right? #phdtalk
Thinking about going on for the Ph.D.? Public History alum Joshua Britton (M.A. '07) has some great advice:... fb.me/AszC8OK7
My great grandfather came from Italy and he was discriminated against too. #whitehistoryclasses
Two months before my defense date. Is it too late to chuck it in and try out for Major League Soccer?
How am I expected to get work done when #bayernmunich is about to crush Arsenal.
Musically-inclined #twitterstorians! The new issue of @CommonplaceJrnl is absolutely delightful. common-place.org
Today's not only 100th anniv of first Armory Show but a milestone for those who enjoy being scandalized by things. bit.ly/VVKWEN
Damnedest thing. This ridiculous stupid Eagles documentary has sucked me in. Well played, Henley, Frey, et al.
So conflicted about #ViceonHBO. It looks like my cup of tea, yet the reporters seem just too happy with themselves
