Jobs On Track For June Return

nandemoari writes "On Tuesday, Apple shareholders gathered at Apple's Cupertino corporate campus continued their pursuit of details regarding Apple chief Steve Jobs' health. They didn't get a whole heck of a lot of information out of Apple's executives, but they did receive some encouraging news on Jobs' status. Timothy Cook, Apple's chief operating officer, assured shareholders that Jobs still planned to return to the company in June. Jobs obviously wasn't present at the meeting, which might have made it rather uncomfortable when several stockholders stood to sing 'Happy Birthday.' Jobs' 54th passed on Tuesday."

    "I know. Us horrible people, suffering the burden of this. You'd almost think that if it wasn't for things like people buying multiple investment properties, trying to 'flip' properties after 12 months, putting $100k in, and expecting a $400k profit, and pushing the prices of housing sky high, and so forth, we'd not be in a financial crisis..."

    And don't forget Greenspan leaving interest rates so low for so long, contributing to the high housing rates, and not to mention things like the CRA, and activist groups pretty much bullying banks to give loans to poor credit risk people (either that or be branded a racist bank if you didn't give to poor neighborhoods), nor forget the idiots out there selling liars loans to people just to make a quick $$ and sell off the debt to be packaged for investors. And don't forget old Barney Franks and the Freddie/Fannie fiasco....all of that "everyone should own a house" nonsense helped a lot to get us in this crisis.

    And now?

    They want to bail those fuckers out that bought too much house at with ARMs...either to flip or own...either they took a risk or they were stupid and didn't read the contracts. Either way...we should let them fail, and let things reset.

    "...but for people surviving and raising families on $1500 a month..."

    $1500/month....a FAMILY? Who the hell can raise a family on that? I mean, hell...where do you find rent that is much below $800/mo at the cheapest (for one bedroom place)?

    Ease your fluttering hearts my little trend-slaves, your extremely gaunt messiah will Come Again soon. Right after that second mouse button - LMAO. Hey, have you guys played Fallout 3? No, you haven't, you can't play it on an Apple... unless you disguise it as a PC. Have fun with your computer that does everyth^H^H^H^H^H^H^H some subset of what it should be able to.

    Admit it... you aren't comfortable with a computer that has many abilities because you'll end up hurting yourself. It's OK. It's called "non-tech-savvy".
