First of all: Steve Jobs is not dead.
Second: Bloomberg posted, then pulled, his obituary today, Gawker picked up on it, posted about it, and into the comments thread on that post I dropped a link to my over Steve Jobs’s dead body post, which has subsequently rocketed to the top of the stats page off of that third-hand high. This has, in turn, lifted the Steve Jobs=Cthulhu post to near the top of the Top Posts, as Steve Jobs surfers see the name in the sidebar and click. And a fine post it is, too (36 painstakingly collected links if I recall correctly)
Third: for no reason I can determine, the Longhorse post is suddenly getting a lot of attention, which suits me perfectly, as I consider it one of my best. And you will, too, once you’ve read it.
Yeah, I like the picture of the long dog myself. As for the evil/genius as Wired magazine calls him, I don’t think those kind die.
Someone on Gawker said it was sad because when this Steve dies there will be no upgrade.
Google “Texas Long Eggs” and you’ll track back to a post or two that discussed whether it was a hoax or not.
You mean Steve IS dead? OMG! Now who will be my imaginary sugar daddy?
Who would Rain dig up as a suitable replacement for Steve?
Yeah, I mean in the world of billionaires there’s not a raging snotload of hotness going around. Don’t know if anyone else has noticed…
But what about Oprah and she’d um, oh… I didn’t read the whole thread. Nevermind.
Not. That. Desperate.
When you are a billionaire the last thing people notice is your hotness. Unless, of course, you’re Rain.
Yeah, that explains Larry Ellison’s track record. I mean, if I were gonna pay for a new face, it wouldn’t be that one.
