It was interesting to watch its location go directly to Flushing Queens ( biggest chinatown in the city for those not in the know). Called up the local precinct and they told me I had to file the report in the precinct that it had been stolen in. Then I had to track it down myself and contact the precinct where the phone ended up in.
Kojack is a fictional character so I said "screw that" and just wiped the thing out. Getting my irish ass karate chopped ( much higher odds on their end ) and my organs sold on the black market in some Flushing back ally were the last way I needed to die over an iPhone. While it would have made a cool premise for a low budget action pict, I can think of more dignified things to die over.
He lived just two years short of the median life span for someone that has this kind of tumor in its earliest stages.

Sure Steve Jobs was an arrogant egomaniac. Sure he delayed some conventional treatment that might have extended his life.

Give the guy credit for coping to it in this autobiography and not holding his regrets to his grave.
I can already the hear the American lawyers for the RIAA, in perfect distributed unison, asking their big boobed secretaries for the telephone access code for France.

Can we please forget this sad chapter in our history? Thousands and thousands have died, trillions spent, and liberties seemingly irrevocably lost.
