Now that Steve Jobs Has Passed Away...

...we will forever be indebted to the many ingenious ways he had changed technology and brought it to a more personal level for all of us in the world.  


Here's a Simpsons episode parodying Apple entitled MyPod and Broomsticks.  First aired on November 2008, it's not exactly a tribute of sorts, more like a tongue-in-cheek commentary on the consumptive nature of iPod buyers and the tens of billions Apple/Mapple must be making out of all of us.  I think it's still an episode Steve Jobs would  have approved of.






And later when Lisa accrues way too much bill for her song downloads, she travels to the bottom of the ocean in a submarine to meet Steve Jobs himself in his signature black semi-turtleneck sweater.  Yes, just to underline Apple's tradition of secrecy prior to unveiling its latest innovation, Mapple's headquarters is located deep in the ocean, and can be accessed by plugging into its USB slot. 

In all of these, thank you, Mr. Steve Jobs.
