And you can't even capitalize his name.

mattyb must have moved to France because his humor is not accepted elsewhere.

After all, these people accepted Jerry Lewis.

I'm half English, the French would NEVER admit to laughing at my jokes.

As for Jerry Lewis, have you seen some of the people that received the Légion d'Honneur?

I'm sure it's nothing much but my email to steve at steve@apple.com bounced back.

The rich are cheap. That's how they got rich.

I really do hope he's okay. It would be great to see him bounce back and show back up at work in the summer having regained 30 pounds or so.

All good thoughts and prayers to you, Steve.

We are all indebted to you. Neither my work or leisure lives would be half as rewarding without your vision and your determination to manifest it.

God bless.

How is it that no one even asked for the iReport article when this dude started this thread.

I guess that speaks to our bleak outlook on his health.

Here's the best evidence that the Business World out there (renown for paranoia) isn't treating the hospitalization rumor as reality-based:

APPL stock continues upward today, another 3 points by mid-day.

Steve, with Mark Twain, may again say, "Rumors of my death are greatly exaggerated."
