360’s been kind of flakey lately, partially due to the fact that we’re not maintaining it as well as we should, since we’ve got some secret migration plan. Comments get a little screwy, top posts aren’t in sync across all servers, flickr integration isn’t consistent, nor are reviews surfacing properly.
I don’t mean to harp on these issues, except for the fact I missed one of my friend’s blast messages. It was a pretty important one too – JT has passed away.
JT has been one of my more interesting friends. He lived a full life, bodybuilding in the Palisdades. Had a nice stable of cars and women to match. His best friend Rick had some issues in jail after a Vegas trip went wrong. And he was always protective of his little sis (who I think was getting engaged to Rick at some point).
I never met JT. Thought about trying to find a way to buy him a beer or six while visiting the Santa Monica offices, but that never really materialized. So I’m still not sure if he’s fictional or not. I think I like it that way. I’m starting to think that some of the best friends are the ones where you’re not sure if they exist or not. It makes his passing away a little easier for me to deal with – not so much a death, but more, just finishing a good book.
Anyway, his best friend had this Colts collage as a background image – and it shows me that I could have fit in with JT and his circle of friends.
whaddya mean, jt passed away?!
