Some of you may recall that I only joined Twitter for one reason. I told my older daughter, Jessica, that I was going to follow celebrities and tweet them until they tweeted me back. I didn’t care if they responded to my humor or if I just bugged them until they told me to leave them alone.
So far I have gotten 5 tweets from Eric Idle and 1 from Ricky Gervais. I am proud to say that it was due more to my humor than my ability to be annoying. I am even more proud to say that Jessica had to get on Facebook and admit that I am not only cool, but that I might even be cooler than she is.
Here are some more tweets:

Pouring My Art Out 
What were the Gervais tweets?
I would have to go back and look.
Take your time…though I thought you’d have them framed…
I been framed…
Love how you mind works… can I use that “follow me… we’ll can be lost together” line? Of Course giving you credit.
Sure you can.
Eric Idle tweeted you five times? Are you sure he isn’t just trying to get you to respond, so that he could impress his daughter?
It is a long story… but yeah… I am pretty sure…
On Twitter, no story can’t be longer than 140 characters.
well… multiply it by ten… five for me, five for him…
And there is back story.
How am I not following you on Twitter?! I will correct that immediately! My apologies.
These things happen…
Ricky Gervais and Eric Idle? Color me jealous. 🙂
I got that color in my crayon box…
Ahh. The highlight of my day is reading what you’ve twat.
Hey now… family show… but sometimes my tweet feels… you know… not so fresh… HA!!! I kill me…
Well done on getting Eric to comment to you. As for Gervais … meh. But that’s my opinion and he responded to you so well done on that respect to.
I am working on other people as we speak.
Excellent 😀
Eric Idle and Ricky Gervais? *bows*

Hilarious as always. I’m jealous of your mind. I’m going to quote some of your tweets on Facebook they are too perfect.
Tell everybody how clever I am!

Then you are a true artist – drawing breath is very difficult.
Not when you are full of hot air… ok… on that note, I am going to bed…

“If your mind is closed, do us all a favor and keep your mouth the same way.”
I might just use that line one day. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure I add an “-Arthur Browne.” at the end of it though, if that’s okay.
I like being quoted. I even quote myself now and then.
