Does anyone have a little bit of time for Dave right now? He needs a text file body of dummy data to work with, with multiple permutations:
screenname: tweet data
Dave sez: "where screenname is a twitter username and tweet data is the actual data (well formed, malformed and otherwise) we might expect from the field. need maybe a body of 100 messages and they should be wacky and crazy like we'd expect from the field."

If someone could separate these into 1) tweets that should work 2) tweets that should fail, that would be great, will save us a little time building the test suite.

let's keep it all as one list for now to make it easier for people to contribute, but once we get a little further this is a really good suggestion. something to keep in mind: it's not as simple as should work/should fail. instead, we need to specify what (if any) information we should store in the database for each of these. (so even if the 'wait' is badly-formatted, we still want to record a report from that area).
