A lot of energy and talent in that room. And a lot of documentation. I don’t miss those acid washed jeans, though. 🤣
Good times on the Unix sysadmin team with @jtl more than 30 years ago. We had a Boss Lady (center) and everything. She was a role model for me even though I could never fit into her shoes (stilettos).

#ThisDayInBuster… September 4, 1927 94 years ago today saw the filming of what was arguably #BusterKeaton’s most dangerous stunt, the #FallingHouse in #SteamboatBillJr. A 1-take wonder that fell to greatness in cinematic history & thankfully didn’t end with Buster being history.

I’m not sure if it’s the @Roku or the @Xfinity app, but I found myself in a time warp around 9 pm last night.
Phil’s Tavern / Herzog Supply have been razed, revealing the “Raxworthy” ghost sign on the building next door. It looks like a lot of the bricks are being reclaimed. #chicago #westloopchicago #chicagoarchitecture instagram.com/p/CQT8GE0hjbQ/… – at Chicago, IL

When you get married, everyone tells you “Don’t go to bed mad” but nobody tells you “don’t start an argument at 10:30 pm”

Classic. :)
in 1995, while interning at apple, i bought a NeXT cube for $150 at stanford surplus while designing mac os X with steve, he liked to tell us how the NeXT was better so i started bringing in my cube to win arguments by showing him that things weren't as good as he remembered
