Nappy Grardi Has

I’m tired, filthy and smelly. I miss B painfully. I haven’t showered since many hours before sitting in the rain at the corner of Royal and St. Ann, and I have New Orleans all over my shoes. We got back to the metroplex around 9pm.
So, now what? Go home, shower, sleep? See my girls? Clean [...]

I noticed this too!

Firefox’s download manager background image looks like it’s flipping you off.
Mozilla development’s resolution?
“WONTFIX”

Sure, it’s a stretch. But when it first pops up, and it’s moving, it really does look like somebody giving you the finger.

I want a redo, but it’s too late

My schedule has been so whack latetly. I decided last night I should take a nap so that I could sleep today and get up for work. Well, I slept from 6pm until about 2:30am. How lame. I totally missed a “date” with Rob to work on songs for this weekend.

We had fun with J.D. for [...]

This dude has it all figured out. I think.
Whenever I read things like this, I always feel so weird for the next few weeks. I wonder if any of the strangers I see on the street might be this person or this type of person.

Not enough for this spoiled college boy

Once again, I’ve been chastised from numerous directions about my lack of regular updates here. “You’re asleep all day, and you work all night,” some say, “so GentleNews is the only way I can be sure you are OK.” For the last week, I haven’t even had the luxury of sleeping all day. I work [...]

Suffer the pornographers and spammers unto me

A guy called last night because something was wrong with his server. I couldn’t quite figure out what was going on, but I wanted to get his issue resolved. However, just as we were onto something, the guy said, “Hey, I gotta let you go… Trump’s about to fire somebody.”
I guess the problem wasn’t really [...]
