(I watched it for the first time last week. Very entertaining.)

“I could also add brother-in-law Jimmy Neader and niece Ericka Neader, but they were a thorn in our side.”

Sounds like there are some stories there.

Thanks for the links -- I was traveling in early October and somehow missed Cringely's passing.

Wow, Bob Cringely and John C Dvorak in the same year. Feels almost like Washington and Jefferson.

Flawed humans? Certainly. But the world is left a little less weird, and (dare I say) a little less brightened. Rest in peace, gentlemen.

Jefferson and Adams :)
