Somebody catches a glimpse of a person on a cell phone in a 1926 film reel and the next thing you know Charlie Chaplin is a Trending Topic on Twitter.
Go figure.
So, what happened is, in case you haven't heard, someone was watching an old film reel from the premiere of a Charlie Chaplin film, circa 1926, and in the footage you can clearly see a woman walking and talking on what appears to be a cell phone.
This makes no sense, of course, but no one has so far been able to explain just what she is doing, or been able to prove the film is a fake.
Decide for yourself about whether she might be a time traveller, but as far me, I enjoy seeing Charlie Chaplin's name in lights again nearly 35 years after his death.....
@ida_of_swe Amused by the Charlie Chaplin trend on footage of a time-traveler talking on a cell phone. Who the F*** would she be able to call in 1928?!
@MR_KENNEDY1 I thin that was Marty Mcfly in that film.. Where was Dr. Emmit Brown?? #Charlie Chaplin
@wrongtothetom if i was a cross dressing time traveler with enormous feet on a Charlie Chaplin set i'd probably phone someone to boast about it too
@davegibbons90 "I'M AT THE CHARLIE CHAPLIN PREMIERE!"... "YEAH!1926!"... "I'M DRESSED AS A WOMAN!"... "THE SIGNAL'S RUBBISH!"
@fieldproducer Charlie Chaplin's time traveller is trending & causing much discussion in our office. What do you reckon? http://bit.ly/9kG5uH

@mattdegroot Although the reason is bizarre I love that Charlie Chaplin is trending! Makes me want to watch City Lights and weep in the fetal position
@danspeerin Was excited Charlie Chaplin was trending, but it's because people believe there's a time traveller in his movies? Sighs... damn you people

The Great Pumpkin comes to Twitter
It's Halloween! Which can only mean one thing: "It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" will be airing on your television at some point. In fact, it is on tonight.
Personally, I have never been a fan of Charlie Brown. I don't enjoy watching that poor, bald headed kid get the short end of the stick time after time. That is not my idea of funny.
But I sure do like the legend of the Great Pumpkin. That's something I can totally get behind...and apparently so can a bunch of Twitter-folks:
@erikajanelle One of my favorite holiday traditions: "It's the great pumpkin, Charlie Brown" airs on @abc7chicago at 7:00pm CT tonight
@philhester It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown TONIGHT! DVR is the devil; this must be seen live or your Halloween is cursed! #IGotARockToo
@kyleistweeting @mar3412 "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" is on ABC tonight!
@peter2160 In my state of rage, it warms my heart to see that Great Pumpkin is a TT. Thank you, Charlie Brown. I will see you tonight.
@Douglas0327 I can't wait for the Great Pumpkin to rise on Sunday! http://grtpmpkin.com/QRY
@eve76 'it's the great pumpkin charlie brown' is on tonight :D
@nemalki The Great Pumpkin comes on tonight. ABC's promotional department is dominated by old white guys who think the cool kids still say "Word."
@53alone Done right, the Great Pumpkin could be made into a Great Pumpkin Pie.
@MurraySchoolsUT MurrEQUOTE: “There are three things I have learned never to discuss with people: religion, politics and the Great Pumpkin.” Linus
@sugarandSpicer I just glanced at the current trending topics: Captain America, Charlie Chaplin, and the Great Pumpkin. win.
@Rav_Bunneh The Great Pumpkin was spotted by chip shop owner, Nigel Manning, just out Braintree last night. Where will he turn up next?

Glee fanatics rejoice! The show is gaining popularity, reaching epic ratings for Fox, practically assuring it will be renewed next year.

@BrianLynch Looking forward to the ROCKY HORROR episode of GLEE. Now that I've admitted this, am I allowed to serve in the military?

Paul the Octopus has died
After such an exciting run at accurately predicting the outcome of the 2010 World Cup, Paul, the Psychic Octopus has died.
Paul endured threats against his life from unruly soccer fans as he became more and more accurate with his choices. Some believe he was actually psychic. Others said he was magic. Still others said it was just a bunch of baloney and there was no such thing a a psychic octopus.
But whatever you believe there is no doubt that Paul the Psychic Octopus made quiet an impression on dry land. Judge for yourself by the outpouring of support in the Trending Topic....

'Hobbit' cast announced
Morgan Freeman to star as Bilbo Baggins in the new 'Hobbit' movie!
Whoops--not MORGAN Freeman. It's Martin Freeman, the British actor who stars in The Office.
Either way it's the biggest news to hit geekdom since, well, since the last time Peter Jackson released a Tolkien-based film.
His new two-film adaptation will be based in New Zealand and be a faithful retelling of the tale of the little guy who finds the magic ring and sword and saves the day for Middle Earth.
At least that's what all the Twitter folks hope. They have made 'Bilbo' Martin Freeman' and 'Baggins' Trending Topics already....
@stuarthoughton I look forward to seeing Bilbo Baggins making a Tim-from-the-office face to camera when Thorin Oakenshield starts singing about gold
@Syfy_online The Hobbit finally green lit, with Peter Jackson directing, Ian McKellen as Gandalf and possibly Martin Freeman as Bilbo. Happy now?
@stukulele Omg! Morgan Freeman is playing Bilbo Baggins? This is awes-... Oh, wait. *Martin* Freeman. Yawn.
@Neilgateley Ace. Martin Freeman is gonna play Bilbo in the Hobbit! Surprising but I think he will be perfect.
@IMDb Martin Freeman is officially confirmed to play Bilbo Baggins in 'The Hobbit'! http://imdb.to/dcgaB5 #castingupdates #thehobbit
@ROBCOZENS WHY IS BILBO BAGGINS TRENDING? (I LIKE HOW I SOUND SO ANGRY) BILBO FUCKING BAGGINS.
@likelectriceels Bilbo Baggins is trending right now. Perfect way to start my day :)

NPR fires Juan Williams-Twitter storm erupts
Twitter is not just for liberals. Apparently Tea Partiers and Neo-Conservatives also use the micro-blogging site. As proof, just check out the firestorm of Tweets which has erupted since National Public Radio fired Juan Williams for espousing racial bias as a Fox News commentator.

Chilean miners get rescued and Trend on Twitter
It seems all you have to do to become a Trending Topic on Twitter these days is spend a couple months trapped a few thousand feet underground and then get rescued by an international coalition of rescuers.
How hard is that?
The whole world watched as the Chilean miners, trapped underground since August, were finally rescued last night. Today, the whole world is Tweeting about it...
@3NewsEditor Watch our Live Stream of the Chilean miner rescue - http://ow.ly/2Sx1z
@YungQ89 i would hate to be the last Chilean miner to be rescued, i would be so scared.
@aDaSober #Chilean miner No quepo en Mí de felicidad!!!
@MNreligion Chilean miner who loves Elvis is on his way up and out of the mine. Comedic miner dubbed "Super Mario" rallies the crowd.
@keithnation "@Erik_Seidel: Just left the drive thru at my bank. The tube came back w cash/receipt + a Chilean miner" very nice.
@nkAzAuRe Lmao! Seriously? RT @YesVs: and ya'll just know there's gonna be a "Chilean Miner" movie coming soon
@Rosental Way Chilean authorities transformed #miner rescue into an emotional TV show will become classic case study http://bit.ly/cSNp7a
@AitchLeMepris A hundred thousand million people are watching the Chilean miner coming out. That's amazing.
@deadromeos The first Chilean miner out said "I do not find my wife attractive anymore, and I am moving in with Diego."
@Jo23siePW Wow, The Chilean Miner rescue is dominating trending topics. 11 men rescued :) yay! Hope they ALL get up safe!!
@Frank_Tireur If a Chilean miner comes out of his hole and sees his shadow, does Chile get six more weeks of winter?
@iamwun "I met God. I met the devil. God won." ~Mario Sepulveda, Chilean miner

@YungQ89 i would hate to be the last Chilean miner to be rescued, i would be so scared.
@aDaSober #Chilean miner No quepo en Mí de felicidad!!!
@MNreligion Chilean miner who loves Elvis is on his way up and out of the mine. Comedic miner dubbed "Super Mario" rallies the crowd.
@keithnation "@Erik_Seidel: Just left the drive thru at my bank. The tube came back w cash/receipt + a Chilean miner" very nice.
@nkAzAuRe Lmao! Seriously? RT @YesVs: and ya'll just know there's gonna be a "Chilean Miner" movie coming soon
@Rosental Way Chilean authorities transformed #miner rescue into an emotional TV show will become classic case study http://bit.ly/cSNp7a
@AitchLeMepris A hundred thousand million people are watching the Chilean miner coming out. That's amazing.
@deadromeos The first Chilean miner out said "I do not find my wife attractive anymore, and I am moving in with Diego."
@Jo23siePW Wow, The Chilean Miner rescue is dominating trending topics. 11 men rescued :) yay! Hope they ALL get up safe!!
@Frank_Tireur If a Chilean miner comes out of his hole and sees his shadow, does Chile get six more weeks of winter?
@iamwun "I met God. I met the devil. God won." ~Mario Sepulveda, Chilean miner

Love: A Four Letter Word
The world feels a little warmer today; a little fuzzier; a little bit nicer place for all of us.
And it's all because of Twitter.
LOVE is Trending Topic today on the micro-blogging social networking site. People are posting their thoughts beliefs, notes and ideas about the most intimate human emotion. Each of us experiences love in a different way. But the end result is the same--it makes us feel good. Mostly.
@planetkristen ℒℴѵℯ is one of the best words ever.
@Barxwanakatio ℒℴѵℯ ℒℴѵℯ ℒℴѵℯ We are a big family!
@marcela_at all we need is ℒℴѵℯ ...I've got it :)
@yendiders "All we need in this world is some ℒℴѵℯ" ;) @adamlambert
@LizotchkaSofya nothing stronger than ℒℴѵℯ
@HayleyTheOne ℒℴѵℯ is hard to find.
@christoferdrew i ℒℴѵℯ ℒℴѵℯ.
@karenlouise143 i ℒℴѵℯ the way you lie.
@FunnyOrFact ℒℴѵℯ people, not things; use things, not people. #funnyorfact
@Audelvia If you ever had your heart broken or hurt, and you forgave that person and still was able to ℒℴѵℯ them like before, that's true ℒℴѵℯ!!
@gabriieliithaxD I ℒℴѵℯ chocolate!

Christopher Columbus Day!
Christopher Columbus, Italian explorer, funded by Spaniards to find a short route to the Indians (as in, folks from India.)
Of course what he did instead was find a small Caribbean Island and get a holiday named in his honor.
Not too shabby. As long as you don't focus on the mass genocide committed as a result of his discovery.....
@Juice_TTCRep I just discovered the Internet....HA! Top that Christopher Columbus!
@DeathStarPR Christopher Columbus: discovered nothing, kidnapped, enslaved & murdered natives & gets a national holiday honoring him? Well played, sir.
@GaryJBusey "Hide your kids, hide your wife, and hide your husband too. 'Cause Christopher Columbus is raping everbody out here." - 1492 tweet
@TUSK81 Christopher Columbus discovered America just like I discovered that BevMo down the block.
@GlobalTechNews 3 shockingly bizarre things about Christopher Columbus: Columbus was an interesting dude, but what you think you k... http://bit.ly/aU9E4C
@JayDixon22 RT @_DougiePhresh_ So if this is Christopher Columbus day when is Indians were first here Day?
@laqueenbash Christopher Columbus, hero or murderer? O_O
@michel_le RT @SkotchDavis Christopher Colon A.K.A Columbus Was A Vile Venomous Individual That Traveled The Lands Stealing & Destroying. $.D.
@loubrutus I celebrate Christopher Columbus Day by leaving home for Indian food, getting lost, winding up at American Grill and enslaving the staff.
@UREpicNinja Christopher Columbus Should Not Trend......Lady Gaga Should! :D

2010 Nobel Peace Prize is awarded to jailed Chinese dissident
His name is Liu Xiaobo and he was a student advisor to the group who protested in Tianenman Square in 1989. He is perhaps the most famous jailed Chinese dissident. One of those people corrupt government officials just don't know what to do with, so leave him in jail. Likely forever.
But thankfully, gratefully, the Nobel group has recognized his efforts and awarded him the 2010 prize for peace.
Perhaps he will be freed one day and more importantly, will live to see freedom restored to his homeland....

Ryder Cup overload on Twitter
Ryder Cup hysteria is sweeping the globe as folks tune in to see who gets to go home with the coveted title...
Well, lots of folks, if not everyone.
Four of the top ten Trending Topics on twitter right now relate to Ryder Cup action: Mahan, Rickie Fowler, GMac, Ryder Cup.
Not sure if this online popularity has translated into higher viewership this year, but it certainly gives you an idea how popular this event is and how plugged-in its watchers are...
@skysports_ed #rydercup Chant to Rickie Fowler on the first: "where's Bianca gone.....?!"
@Devotuned I guess Rickie Fowler tried his best to pull it out for the USA but we were too far behind in the end?
@maciarielwood I love RICKIE FOWLER :) the only imaginary husband my father approves of
@KengCheong Wow! What a great Ryder Cup. Congrats to Europe....down to 17th hole of the final match between McDowell and Mahan. woot woot woot
@eastdallasnews McKinney native Hunter Mahan can't save U.S. from defeat in Ryder Cup http://dlvr.it/6SlZf
@blazindw Dammit Hunter Mahan...you messed it up for everyone! How you just gonna hand Europe the Ryder Cup on a silver platter
@jbates0515 @hux78 man was that close or what? I can't imagine the pressure for Mahan.
@WillBryant22 I can't believe Johnny Miller didn't rip Mahan...had it been another golfer (1st name Eldrick) would he have done the same?! #letitmarinate
@jbwilliamz John Travolta just landed his plane outside my office in Llantrisant. He's off to watch the #RyderCup apparently. Spectacular.
@gerry_berry I've drank cider from a mug once #RyderCup #CiderMug
@sammylambypie Oh my goodness, well, what a day!!! Didn't think it would be that tough today, but the Ryder Cup should be exciting! #rydercup
@newrosscom Congrats to European Team and Graeme McDowell #rydercup
@lakerboy1988 All the European #rydercup players should be banned from the PGA tour.
@tonimoragues Enorme @ovidiov @fueradelimites por su seguimiento #rydercup. La ha líado tanto que le ha petado la cuenta. Un hole in one twitero es eso.
@HonestFrank Everyone still agree with #rydercup not being 'crown jewel' of listed sporting events for terrestrial TV? Challenge Cup, Epsom Derby are
@rydercup Ryder Cup regained by Europe, on the 17th. Gmac the man!
@GolfMonthly Golf Monthly columnist @Graeme_McDowell wins deciding point for Europe to win the Ryder Cup... great going GMAC
@conorobyrne @ppaudioteam will pp pay on gmac sinking winning putt even though it was a concession
@PaulAzinger GMAC!!!!!ONE OF THE BEST PUTTS I'VE EVER SEEN!!!
@TheCelticManor It's there!!! Well done GMac. Our Wales Open champ does it in front of our 2010 members in 17th pavilion.
