Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them.

"Thank�"
Being in debt and celebrating a lower deficit is like being on a diet and celebrating the fact you gained two pounds this week instead of five.

"Hi. I'm Steve Jobs. And I ain't got jack spizz to announce at this MacWorld so I figure I'll run that Quartz Extreme demo again. Oh yeah, but first I'll re-introduce all the products we've already released and talked about at previous MacWorlds. Then I'll, *cough*, gloss over the fact our fastest system supports only PC133 SDRAM. And then I'll talk about how we "listened to our customers" and added a 17" LCD to the iMac and talk about how revolutionary that is."

Keep the rubber side down!

Always has been and alway will be:

SJ: Good Morning, It's..

**Crowd Cheer**

SJ: It's great to be here in New York

**Crowd Cheer, SJ takes sip of Evian**

SJ: We've got some really great things to show you today so let's get started.

**Crowd "whoops"**

Etc...

And the following are bound to make an appearence:

SJ: You get the idea.
SJ: And the PowerMac is done!
SJ: Ladies and Gentlemen, the Pentium 4!
SJ: I'd like to invite [insert name here] up on stage..
SJ: A free* upgrade.
PS: 10 pies to go.

"WHY?"

he cries as he finds out the audience actually came to MWNY02 !

Then, on stage, he takes out his mobile phone, dials a number, waits..phone is answered by a 10 year-old boy, who says there are no worthy developments to announce. dials another number. Has a short discussion. Turns to the audience and asks them if they want to see the latest Pixar-movie for free...audience laughs. Steve replies "hey, I am dead serious, do-you-want-to-see-it-or-not?

"Good morning" is what he will say.
"Whaddoyou want, fu�king bast@rds" is what we will think.

Wouldn't it be nice if the whole audience would say " Good morning Steve " back?
I think it would really put him of balance.

"We" will be the first word

and he will continue:

We...have finally achieved world domination, but we are still having some problems with PowerPC supplies so please come back after we gained full control of every person on the earth and when Bill Gates will be in a cage right next to my office desk.

or it could just be:

We...are very excited...
