This image is a few years old now but found it today when looking back to my trip to NY City a few years ago. Not a perfect shot for focus as I was trying to quickly take the shot without him knowing. I get a kick out of the old guy sitting at the Apple bench playing with the laptop and the big beard.

Great pic. I see that being me if I live that long. That beard is fairly epic.

That's Steve in disguise. He often does that to monitor AS employees.

Agreed.

I like how the hair on his templates grows down and merges with his beard. He could have a killer Saint Nicholas look for the holidays. (The more traditional, tall, thin, European-style Saint Nick as opposed to the fat, jolly, Coca-Cola-produce Santa Claus of the US.)
One should never stop striving for clarity of thought and precision of expression.
I would prefer my humanity sullied with the tarnish of science rather than the gloss of religion.

Dude's probably a 25 year old Williamsburg hipster who's done some hard living.

His fixed-gear bicycle is waiting for him outside.
