Article: 100 Facts about Steve Jobs and Parody Jobs on Twitter

Douglas — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 14:33:59 +0000

While reading an article about 100 facts about Steve Jobs and Apple, I ran across a parody link for Steve Jobs (Steve Jobs ceoSteveJobs on Twitter). I included some of the 100 Facts that I found interesting from the 100 facts below.

I can remember my parents and their Apple IIe, with the large floppy, flipping it over, and Print Shop, with Banner Sheet Paper! Amazing how things have changed from a technology stand point. Apple employees all receiving an iPhone in 2007 (wow), salary of $1, only 6 Board of Directors (including Al Gore), and income from Disney stock at $48M a year. While the salary is only a $1, the perks of the company far outweigh the measurement of such.

Highlights of the 100 Facts -

The Apple Store on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan (the cube) is said to be one of the most photographed landmarks in the world.
Steve Jobs bought Pixar from George Lucas for $10 million and sold it to Disney for $7.6 billion.
Nine U.S. states don’t have Apple stores: Alaska, Arkansas, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia and Wyoming.
Steve Jobs bought Pixar from George Lucas for $10 million and sold it to Disney for $7.6 billion.
Apple once disposed of 2,700 unsold Lisas in a Utah landfill. The computer originally sold at $10,000 each.
The longest-lived Apple computer of all time was the Apple IIe, which was on sale for nearly 11 years.
Apple didn’t sell a Windows-compatible iPod until nine months after the iPod was introduced.
The time shown on all of the devices in pictures on Apple’s website is the same (9:41 a.m. for iOS devices and 10:50 a.m. for Macs). The time is coordinated with when the pictures will be shown during Steve Jobs’ keynote address.
Steve Jobs’ largest parody Twitter account is @ceostevejobs.
Steve Jobs pays himself an annual salary of $1.
Steve Jobs’ annual income from Disney shares is $48 million.
Steve Jobs has big feet, at size 14.
Macs last an average of six years. PCs last an average of four years.
The average PC owner spends 50 hours a year troubleshooting. The average Mac owner spends 5 hours a year.
Teachers and students using Macs are found to be 44% more productive.
When it was first released Steve Jobs gave every Apple employee a free iPhone.
Apple began work on a touch-screen tablet before work began on the iPhone. The iPad wasn’t released until three years after the iPhone, however.
The very first image shown on the Macintosh was of Disney character Scrooge McDuck.
In 2010 Apple’s market cap exceeded Microsoft for the first time since 1989.

Ammunition Restricted and Underwear Ads in bins?!?!

Douglas — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 17:12:01 +0000

While flying out of Nashville today a few signs made light of the poor travel day in front of us to get back home. Good news, changed to 1145 flight instead of 1435. Bad news, all flights delayed 90 minutes. At least it’s not Friday, grrrrr, it is.

Phew, glad it has to be properly packed! That makes all the difference!

Glad to see that clean undies are essential advertising now, just found it humorous but good marketing location.

Funny: The Journal of a North Dakotan (perfect for Winter)

Thanks to Scott E – fitting for Winter -

Aug. 12

Moved to our new home in North Dakota. It is so beautiful here. The hills are so picturesque. Can hardly wait to see them with snow covering them. God’s Country. I love it here!

Oct. 14

North Dakota is the most beautiful place on earth. The leaves are turning all different colors. I love the shades of red and orange. Went for a ride through some beautiful hills and spotted some deer. They are so graceful, certainly they are the most peaceful animals on earth. This must be Paradise. I love it here!

Nov. 11

Deer season will start soon. I can’t imagine anyone wanting to kill such an elegant creature. The very symbol of peace and tranquility. Hope it will snow soon. I love it here!

Dec 2

It snowed last night. Woke up to find everything blanketed in white. It looks like a postcard. We went outside and cleaned the snow off the steps and shoveled the driveway. We had a snowball fight (I won) and when the snowplow came by, we had to shovel the driveway again. What a beautiful place. Mother nature in perfect harmony. I love North Dakota!

Dec 12

More snow last night. I love it. The snowplow did his trick again (that rascal). A winter wonderland. I love it here!

Dec 19

More snow last night. Couldn?t get out of the driveway to get to work this time! I’m exhausted from shoveling. That damn snowplow!

Dec 22

More of that white crap fell last night. I’ve got blisters on my hands from shoveling. I think the snowplow man hides around the corner and waits until I’m done shoveling this driveway.

Dec 25

“White Christmas” my busted ass! More fucking snow. If I ever get my hands on that son of a bitch who drives that snowplow, I swear I’ll castrate the dumb bastard. Don’t know why they don’t use more salt on the roads to melt this fucking ICE!

Dec 28

More white crap last night. Been inside since Christmas Day except for shoveling out the driveway every time “Snowplow Harry” comes by. Can’t go anywhere, cars buried in a mountain of white crap. The weatherman says to expect another 10? tonight. Do you know how many shovels full of snow 10″ is?

Jan. 1

Happy Damn New Year, the weatherman was wrong (again). We got 34″ of the white crap this time. At this rate it won’t melt before the 4th of July. The snowplow got stuck up the road, and the guy had the balls to come to the door and ask to borrow my shovel. After I told him I’ve broken 6 shovels already, shoveling all the stuff he pushed into the driveway, I broke my last one over his damn head!

Jan. 4

Finally got out of the house today. Went to the store to get food and on the way back, a damn deer ran in front of the car and I hit the bastard. Did about $3,000 worth of damage to the car. Those damn beasts ought to be killed. Wish the hunters had killed them all last November.

May 3

Took the car to the garage in town. Would you believe the thing is rotting out from all that damn salt they keep dumping all over the road? Car looks like a piece of junk!

May 10

Moved to Florida! I can’t imagine why anyone in their right mind would ever want to live in that God forsaken state of North Dakota!

A friend shared this cartoon with me, and thought it was funny to post with the winter weather upon us throughout much of the US.

“After it was graded and the child brought it home, she returned to school the next day with the following note:

Dear Ms. Davis,

I want to be very clear on my child’s illustration. ?It is NOT of me on a dance pole on a stage in a strip joint. ?I work at Home Depot and had commented to my daughter how much money we made in the recent snowstorm. ?This photo is of me selling a shovel.

Mrs. Harrington”

Funny: Tiger’s Christmas poem… (Thanks Yolie)

Douglas — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 04:45:26 +0000

Twas the night of Thanksgiving and out of the house?
Tiger Woods came a flyin’, chased by his spouse..?
She wielded a nine iron and wasn’t too merry,?
Cause a bimbo’s phone number was in his Blackberry.?
He’d been cheatin’ on Elin, and the story progressed.?
Woman after woman stepped up and confessed.?
He’d been cheatin’ with Holly, and Jaimee, and Cori,?
With Joselyn, and Kalika. The world had the story.?
From the top of the Tour to the basement of blues,?
Tiger’s sad sordid tale was all over the news.?
With hostesses, waitresses, he had lots of sex,?
When not in their pants, he was sendin’ them texts.?
Despite all his cryin’ and beggin’ and pleadin’,?
Tiger’s wife went investin’ — a new home in Sweden ..?
And I heard her exclaim from her white Escalade,?
“If you’re gettin’ laid then I’m gettin’ paid.”?
She’s not pouting, in fact, she is of jolly good cheer,?
Her prenup made Christmas come early this year
