Is Steve Jobs: "People want to own their music, not rent it. People prefer ownership to subscription based services".

-Macworld Atlanta, 2004

He does not want us to become enslaved in a system of media "rentals" or "subscriptions" which drain us of our free spirit and in the end leave us with nothing but a bunch of credit card bills. Steve Jobs wants us to OWN our music, he wants us to experience the joy of ownership as a means towards improving our lives. Keynes couldn't have said it better himself.

Cody Dawg is definitely NOT a pillar of economic liberalism. In fact, Cody Dawg has repeatedly said that she would rather "be dead" than live in a society "where any poor person can just go out and by a song for $0.99".

- a thread from last year.

I am shocked and scandalized!

Cody Dawg? A commie?

OMG!

PS: in before anybody else and the lock thing too.

FulcrumPilot · Oct 17, 2005, 07:06 PM

Steve Jobs is the reincarnation of a hindu god of gadgets, I am sure about this.

rozwado1 · Oct 17, 2005, 07:07 PM

This thread is now about yams.

BlueSky · Oct 17, 2005, 07:10 PM

Steve is so good to us. Steve rocks. I'm going to name my first-born $0.99.

Thanks for putting me in the header of a thread, but please find that thread, please, where I said "I would rather be 'dead'?"

I'd really like to see it - just to refresh my memory, you know.

But, I sure do love yams...candied...whipped...just baked in a campfire down at the beach.

WITH CHEESE ON TOP!

Cody Dawg · Oct 17, 2005, 07:49 PM

Oh, I think I do remember that thread now...

Wasn't that the thread where you said you'd invented a new penis pump?

BlueSky · Oct 17, 2005, 07:49 PM

I only discovered I like yams a couple years ago. Now I feel that I want to live my life over, because of all those yam-free years.

Kids, take it from me: Eat your goddamn yamns.

Well, that thread may not actually exist. But it's the principle of the matter which counts the most.

There is no spoon.

I think Steve could be the tea cup. He gets all filled up with RDF fuel and then he goes does keynotes.

I don't like yams. Or tea.

Cody Dawg · Oct 18, 2005, 09:24 AM

Hi Kerrigan:

How are you today?

I've decided not to eat yams today.

I'm eating acorn squash instead. Yes, similar consistency and lots of vitamin A just like yams. Split in half, scoop out seeds, place in shallow roasting pan with a little water, put a few pats of butter in the middle of each half, spoon some brown sugar into each half, and drizzle a little [real] maple syrup in each. Bake for 45 minutes to one hour. It's REALLY good.

I'm getting ready for hurricane Wilma and a new puppy coming to our home on Thursday or Friday - an Australian shepherd.

Now where's WDLove and Kevin?

Stradlater · Oct 18, 2005, 09:30 AM

Cody, get some butternut squash sometime soon. I made a puree soup with squash, apples, and a little bit of bacon and sage. It was fantastic.

Here's the little dog who had his leg operated on last Monday and had his little knee rebuilt.

I thought he was going to die - he had to have two surgeries four hours each.

Anyway, now he's recovering with his knee rebuilt and two pins in his leg and I think he's going to be fine after all is said and done...poor little guy.

Cody Dawg · Oct 18, 2005, 10:06 AM

Stradlater: Post that recipe, will you?

(Or is there a rule about not posting about other members' recipes?

)

Randman · Oct 18, 2005, 10:10 AM

Dogs can be quite resilient.

Cody Dawg · Oct 18, 2005, 10:11 AM

Oh, and Kerrigan? I actually do embrace the values of laissez faire as long as contemporary criteria are taken into account.

Such as the fact that we should all eat home-grown yams and not imported yams.

Cody Dawg · Oct 18, 2005, 10:13 AM

Is that from your dog's spay, Randman?

The French bulldog had to have her spay done and she developed a bad hernia from it and he had to go in and repair the hernia afterwards - similar to the way your dog looks.

But, your dog's incision looks...mean...and sore. I hope she was okay!

I'll post it when I get home. The computer here is going haywire and crashed when I tried to post a long message. Ah, Windows!

Randman · Oct 18, 2005, 10:48 AM

No. She had her pancreas removed about 2 years ago. They also took out her private stuff as she was 11 then and not likely to have pups.

Last year, she needed to go in for some mammary gland tumours removed. She's 13 and a little slower these days but it's amazing how fast she bounced back from both surgeries.

I'm here Cody. Congratulations on the notice the thread title.

Cody Dawg · Oct 18, 2005, 11:44 AM

I'm going to have to iChat you.

Did you see that we have a hurricane on the way? That's all we need down here.

I have a dog flying in on Thursday too!

wdlove · Oct 18, 2005, 12:38 PM

Yes, Cody I have been hearing about Wilma. Hoping for the best.

That puppy is so cute. I love the coloring.

Cody Dawg · Oct 18, 2005, 12:53 PM

A testicle did not descend so he needs a surgery to remove it.

But, isn't he cute?

I think he's adorable, though that picture is about 3 months old because he is almost 6 months old now. He was supposed to be a show dog.

Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon have one of his brothers.
