Frank Tweets 10,000 for @loswhit
I’ve been twittering since August 2007.
Until a few minutes ago, I had updated 9,999 times.
I did not want to tweet number 10,000 because I honestly felt like I already talk to much.
So I took a few days to find somebody to tweet for me.
Meet Frank.
Frank was sitting outside my local Starbucks and said hi as I walked in.
So I walked outside, made a friend, and asked him if he could tell 8000 people one thing, what would he say…
Frank is 67.
Frank is a professional arborist.
He got laid off from his job in Valdosta, GA as the city arborist in February.
He has taken care and planted hundreds of thousands of trees.
Frank wanted me to tell you to…
“Be kind to yourself and kind to your mother, as in mother nature.”
Thanks Frank for your advice and for helping take care of mother nature.
I’ll do my best as well.
and sure, I’d love to take your picture.








Congrats on 10,000 awesome tweets. I look forward to the next 10,000!

Something.

I don't really know her.
They're going to use my blog about the Great Date Exp for the BC website.
I have no idea why or how they found it.
Good stuff though.
So close to seeing your wifey out here last week.
We're moving back to ATL in Dec.
I'm trying to get excited about it…
He was rad.
Kudos. Is there a better word?
Now … los, hook me up, what is that awesome piano soundtrack?
Garage Band. LOL

" It will do us little good to wire the world if we short-circuit our souls. There is no delete button for racism, poverty, or secretarian violence. No keystroke can ever clean the air, save a river, preserve a forest. This transformational new technology must be an extension of our hearts as well as of our minds. The old rules still apply.

This quote is on the side of my starbucks cup that I'm drinking out of while I watched that video.
Brilliant.
Nice touch Los
Love it!
That flippin ROCKED!
Thanks.
Amazing as usual. you set a new standard today for 8,000 ppl.
Thanks Los, Keep it up!
Thanks for hanging out in this digital world with me.
Hi Fellow Ragamuffins!
In the spirit of new friends I was wondering if you could help me out? I'm a former youth pastor I live in Australia and i'm keen to find out all i can about the online/network/campus church set up that i hear about so much from the US. Its such a new concept here in Australia and I'd really appreciate if you could take a few minutes to answer 4 easy questions i've posted on my blog here http://tiny.cc/hSm5h
Any info you could give me would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Ed
Stop by anytime man.
Great idea, great post, great tweet!
Gracias.
Wow what a great way to to do tweet 10,000. Thanks to you for the challenge as well and thanks to Frank for his words
Frank is the man.
This is awesome! I bet you made his day
God is good!
Amen!
and your naming your new tree "Frank" right?
Of course
Only you would think of that Los!
Always trying.
very nice! classy music. reminded me of charlie brown
Totally.
nicely done. way to go in your quest to continue to bring others along with you in your journey.
The man was nails. We talked for an hour.
He reminds me of the guy from the dos equis commercials
This is one of the reasons you rock, Los. Thinking outside the box, yet again. I knew you were quiet this weekend. Missed the tweets from church. God "planted" you & Frank together!
Amen.
First off I love that frank actually knew what twitter was, also I love that he was telling his friend about it and was truly excited to be able to take part in your 10,000 post.
Seems like a cool dude.
Here is to your 1 millionth tweet
happy 10K! Great photo too!
drop the tweet and get on your feet…you might be surprised who you meet…
Awesome idea. Take a milestone and honor someone else with it.
Hope Frank is doing well.
спасибо, прочитал на одном дыхании
that is the best! i video people all the time asking them questions. the question usually being, "If you had one that you would want to tell the world that you learned in your life, what would that be?"
this reminds me of all my times just going up to strangers and interviewing them. this is awesome.
wish i could talk to this dude, my favorite part of creation is trees.
Visiting Anna’s brother in Franklin until Saturday. You available? Call me…
You know what? Its this kind of thing that makes me really like you. Seriously… you're cool. (not that that means a darn thing coming from me! LOL) If I am ever in Atlanta, I am taking you and the fam to dinner… ok?
Impressive. That dude knows himself well.
And nice pic, btw
Что то слишком мудрено… И по-моему расчитано на блогера чем на вебмастера
That is why you have 8,000 followers on twitter, and I am one of them.
Now that's a lot of tweets and a sweet thing to give to a friend also!
I so agree
my fav part is you asking Frank his name the second time. That was the most perfect thing. And yes, you may take my picture
