          When questioned by a reporter about the absence of a public record of him making charitable donations, Jobs remarked that he was much too busy creating wonderful things that improved lives to help the poor, sick, and lame. After all, inventing and selling the iPod and helping destroy what little hearing is left in the ear drums of music lovers with those cute little ear buds that make you look so cool naturally took precedence over shelling out a few hundred million to stop the spread of AIDS or fight cancer or whatever. Well, yeah.
           Not to mention the hours, days, weeks, months, etc., etc., he labored in personally inventing the software that became the iPhone that simply drained him of all energy until he was just too exhausted to lift his hand and scribble his name on a check to help disabled children or Shiners’ Hospitals or find a cure for breast cancer. Sure.
           But, wow, did he invent some really neat shit that made our lives so much better. Let’s offer that as his epitaph. And BTW, tell those crippled kids to get their cheap parents to buy them iPods so we can all be slavishly worshipful of Steve Jobs.

          Does any one out there think? If they do, what they think is: Fuck Socrates and the reflected life.

Steve Jobs lives FOREVER ! !  Materialism RULES ! ! !  YEAH ! ! ! !
