We all know that Schwarzenegger loves Twittering and yesterday he uploaded a short TwitVid that began with him holding a very large knife, apparently a metaphor for his budget cuts. Har, har! As of 11 a.m., it's received over 100,000 views.

Basically, Schwarzenegger is continuing to solicit the public's ideas on saving the state money via Twitter. One budget saving item is to sell state cars, which Ryan Stothard in Australia took note of, hypothetically asking "if California does have a state property auction, should @Schwarzenegger sign everything to boost prices?" Next thing he knows, Schwarzenegger thanks him and makes a video, knife in hand, about it. "Does this mean I can put 'advisor to @Schwarzenegger'on my resume now?" he later joked.

ummm.

what the hell is up with his watch?

i know, right!? that watch looks like an office clock.

Talk about robot bling.

He could probably autograph that, sell it off and save a state park.

You're right to query. It looks like a kind of cartoon time-bomb thing. Bizarre.

It probably is an office clock - how big does a watch have to be to look huge on Schwarzenegger's arm?

you know, maybe just maybe he was thinking of using it on himself.

I know if that was my job right now, I'd be looking for an easy way out.

Maybe Maria will show him how it's done.

Just who does he think he is, Crocodile Dundee?
