1955-2011

I’m writing this on my iMac, one of the four Apple devices in the house. I’ve been using Apple computers since 1994 when I got a 6100/60. I made my first sale of Mac software in 2001. Apple has come a long way in the ten years since under Steve’s leadership.

Something in the Air

Every year some new TV shows come out that seem based on very similar ideas. This year I noticed that Ringer and The Lying Game have rather similar concepts. Separated identical twins (played by the same actress), one rich one poor, swap places. One disappears and the poor sister attempts to find out what’s going on while impersonating the rich sister. More or less.

Grimm and Once Upon A Time both bring fairy tales into the real world but in rather different ways.
