James Howard Gibbons' editorial LiveJournal

We've gotten used to Lucas Wall using his transportation column for petulant outbursts when he is inconvenienced by the city's public transportation.

James Howard Gibbons
Today, we were treated to a similarly petulant outburst from James Howard Gibbons on the editorial page.

His LiveJournal-like "editorial journal" makes it clear that he's not happy that somehow, his license plates flagged him as someone with a phantom arrest warrant. It's Kafkaesque, he (almost) says!

While blogHOUSTON would certainly never wish misfortune upon anyone (as Ayn Rand might say, we believe in a beneficent universe), we can't help but be slightly amused when certain Chronicle journalists discover the problems that normal Houstonians run into every day. The difference, of course, is that most normal Houstonians don't get to use the city's only major daily to express their displeasure.

We're also amused that Mr. Gibbons is discovering the ineptitude that has resulted from six years of mismanagement by the mayoral candidate his editorial board endorsed repeatedly.

Perhaps the Editorial Idealist should (con)descend to the cave with the rest of us commoners more frequently. He might just discover that the city isn't exactly in an ideal state.
