Back when I spent a great deal of time at those 2 places, I had thought the idea was to model them after the Death Star. NOW I KNOW.

But mostly mad love all around.<br /><br />Other than an ipod I don't own any Apple products (although I was pretty stoked about finally getting an iphone this month) but I'm surprised at how upset I was at Jobs' death. Sad day. Virtual hugs all around.<br /><br />Christian - Thanks for stopping by!
