TwitterLit: What's the connection?

Over the last year (and a little more) since TwitterLit's been in operation, I've celebrated a number of events with theme posts. TwitterLit--and KidderLit--have recognized momentous occasions such as April Fool's Day, Be Bald and Be Free Day, National Grouch Day, and the anniversary of the internet.

Theme posts aren't identified as such in the Twitter posts; there's just not enough room. But if you visit the TwitterLit or KidderLit sites you'll see the themes and be able to browse entries by theme. Themes are also visible when you view TwitterLit and KidderLit posts by bookmarklet (bookmarklets: TwitterLit | KidderLit -- to install drag to your toolbar).

I recently came up with a slightly different idea for a theme. The ten TwitterLit lines posted between May 19th and May 23rd will all be connected in some way. They'll all be listed under the theme "What's the connection? (5/19/08-5/23/08)." I'm not even going to tell you what the connection is! That's for you to figure out. You can talk amongst yourselves :)

There's no prize or anything; this is just for fun. And in the future there may well be more What's the connection? posts. I hope you enjoy it!
