OG just tore this poor telephone tech support girl Amy at Real Networks to shreds. He was convinced that RealPlayer had hijacked his computer turning all JPEGs into unusable JFIFs. I think JFIF may stand for JPEG Flung Into Future, but I’m not sure. Anyway, first OG called Amy an ignorant slut. Then he accused her of being behind a Real Networks conspiracy to take over his computer. Finally he hung up on her, as she was apologizing profusely. She was almost certainly in tears. Morale of the story, don’t mess with OG’s JPEGs. Turns out though, that it was Firefox 3’s fault, not RealPlayer’s. I think he’s trying to find a phone number for the Mozilla Foundation now.
OG is very excited as he will soon be in possession of a rare Mexican box of Mentos. His growing collection of Mentos from around the world is one step closer to continue.
Items from Old Gary’s desk: The Italian box of Mentos. OG loves these because he can pretend they’re a box of cigarettes, and because they read “Chewy Dragees”. They’re almost all gone because YR ate most of them.
He said I removed pokkariJavascript from the upload page, but YR says he has strong evidence to the contrary. I honestly can’t remember.
Old Gary is quite disturbed at the notion of vegetarianism/veganism. He had a coffee mug custom made that reads, “Dear Justin From The Future, For every animal you do not eat, I will eat two. —Old Gary”. You can only see the message when the mug is heated.
