Tangent: Macs, Sci-Fi, a Beautiful Eulogy

islamoyankee

Once, I say, I am a huge fan of Apple Computers and the Mac OS. I’m also a Sci-Fi guy; not über-geek, but a fan. So I’m also really looking forward to the release of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. It’s no secret that Douglas Adams was a fan of the Mac as well. One of Adams’ friends has written a beautiful piece about Adams. You should read it. It not only brings together some of my interests, but it’s a good piece of writing.

Procrastinating and found this link via Shirei_Shibolim. I’m Bob Herbert and quite happy with that comparison. I don’t normally post this sort of thing, but I like the comparison, and I needed some levity. You are Bob Herbert! You’re not the most sparklingwriter, but one of the most solid and selflesson the Op-Ed staff. You focus on New Yorkpolitics, the poor, race issues, and civilliberties. You like to quote others, and rarelyplace yourself in your columns. You keep itreal. Seriously. Which New York Times Op-Ed Columnist Are You? brought to you by Quizilla

  1. Any person who dresses up as Queen Amidala and has Jar Jar P’jamies is an uber-geek. We at MIT salute you.

  3. Ghost Dog, just so you know how culturally clueless you are, it’s Princess Leia, and Yoda PJs.
    EK, the article is about Douglas Adams and talks about his love for Macs.
