Man, I am REALLY missing those days when the National Enquirer ran nothing but Big Foot sightings and alien probing stories. Unfortunately, in recent years the Enquirer has become a fairly accurate and legitimate news source, breaking some fairly major stories in the tabloid world, which is all the more disheartening as their latest headline claims that Steve Jobs has only 6 weeks... Read More

Newsflash: Steve Jobs IS human

Or at least he WAS, back in 1978 when this video was made. Gaze in wonder as a 23-year old Steve shows caveman-like amazement at his image appearing on a TV set and prepare to gawk open-mouthed as Steve demonstrates just a hint of the emotion we mortals call “nervousness” when told he will be simulcast to New York as well.
