Code, nerd culture and humor from Greg Knauss.
Damned Fireball
Oct 16 2009

John Gruber, the proprietor of the wildly popular Daring Fireball, is funny, smart, an extraordinarily engaging writer, an insightful analyst and a Yankees fan. And therefore the scum of the earth.

Every year that the Yankees buy their way into the post-season — meaning every year — he replaces the logo on his Web site with some sort of gang sign. Those of us who are Daring Fireball fans but cannot abide an association with organized crime now have an alternative:

Damned Fireball

Damned Fireball is a Grease Monkey (for Firefox) and GreaseKit (for Safari) script that corrects the problem. If you just see code when you click the link above, then you need to install Grease(Monkey|Kit)1.

Go Dodgers!

1. Man, doesn’t a Grease Monkey Kit sound like something you’d order from Amazon, and then really, really regret?

Hi there! My name's GREG KNAUSS and I like to make things.

Some of those things are Web sites (like the Webby-nominated Metababy and The American People), software (both commercial and open-source, including contributions to projects like CPAN and XScreenSaver) and stories (for Web sites like Suck and Fray, print magazines like Worth and Macworld, and books like "Things I Learned About My Dad" and "Rainy Day Fun and Games for Toddler and Total Bastard").

My e-mail address is greg@eod.com. I'd love to hear from you!
