my new horrible drivers’ license came yesterday.  and since i am sick (no, i did not dodge that bullet :( ), it seems like perfect timing to attempt a re-enactment. unfortunately, i was right when i looked at it and said “i wouldn’t be able to reproduce that face if i tried.” so, yeah, i’m […]

so here it is. the first edition of PictureAndABlog — it’s kind of like dinner and a movie except with less sexual tension… there. isn’t that exciting? gavin’s really sick.  he started getting sick when my ‘rents were here last week but we thought he was just being overly fussy.  he sounded really crappy tonight.  […]

the gavin blog is officially now ‘kidsblog’.  at some point in the future i will make you all change your bookmarks to kids.jazzsequence.com (hmmm…maybe i should change that to kidsof.jazzsequence.com…..), because as it stands now the home page is kids.jazzsequence but any of the links redirect back to /gavin…for now, however it stands as it […]

i reorganized the gallery so it’s somewhat more coherent.  also upped some picks to flickr.

so i configured some (more) virtual hosts in apache and redid my custom error pages.  the error pages got reset after apache got updated recently, so i had to redo them.  you can see a 403 forbidden error here and a 404 not found error here. and i also set up the following subdomains: music.jazzsequence.com […]

i blogged yesterday about saul williams’ new album, but as trent says on nin.com, unlike radiohead, his is not a household name (yet).  saul williams is an amazing black performance poet.  he’s possibly best known for his anti-bush rant, “not in my name” or, alternately, he was in the independent film slam (or so wikipedia […]

at the bottom of my site you will see a new flash widget thing.  it’s a promo for the new Saul Williams album which was done with Trent Reznor and is supposedly the next chapter in the Year Zero saga.  or at least supplementary material.  Trent said a couple weeks ago on his blog that […]

ok, so this would have been better with the visual, but, as it turns out, while i wasn’t looking (read: while it’s been sitting on the desk, not plugged in, acting as a malformed and warped shelf for junk), my scanner up and died.  dead, no pulse, doa, unliving, dead dead dead.  so.  you’ll have […]

ok, so i get a lot of forwards from my biomom. some are cute and worth reading and passing on, some are religious and worth deleting, some are racist and not worth my time, but tick me off anyway, and some are morally outraged at one thing or another. but regardless, i read them all, […]

i’ve added a couple hacks to the site to dissuade viewers from using internet explorer, including a javascript-powered microsoft-free weekend.  back in the early 00’s, microsoft-free friday was a thing.  this was around when firefox was just starting to gain momentum.  there were a couple of ways of implementing msff — one was an apache […]

so we’ve been watching the new bionic woman series. why? two words: katee sackhoff. other than that, it’s yet another remake of an old tv show. since battlestar galactica there’s been — that i know of — dr. who (which would have been fantastic were it not for the fact that the doctor couldn’t be […]

i completely redid my gallery page on jazzsequence. rather than using a coppermine php gallery you login to, i made it more generic and homemade but probably more accessible and much easier to add pictures to (since i pretty much just dump them where i would normally and the gallery will see the new pictures […]
