Regular readers may have noticed a downturn in the reliability of our posts recently. We’re sorry. After more than five (?!?) years going strong, the blog in its current format is losing steam. A group of current and former writers is currently having a discussion on the best way to keep NAP vital, interesting [...] The wife and I have started a mom and pop software enterprise. Here’s the first bit of PR we’ve mustered – something the artist requested to put in her site’s upcoming events area… tigerBaby is a new mom and pop software enterprise based in Chicago. tigerBaby’s primary mission is to match great Chicago print [...] OK, so one of the bands that people always try to sell me is Steely Dan.

She has a really striking voice imbued with character, and despite her youth it seems real, rather than a put-on like I hear [...] You know every once in a while when searching on the internet you get a weird result. I can’t even recall what I was searching for that got me to this result but it was one of those moments where you kind of had to follow through and see if it was just as [...] Last week, after being reminded of its existence by an internet friend, I watched Dave Chappelle’s Block Party.
