We’ve been earning a living on Macs for twenty years, but we don’t have any iconic Steve Jobs or Apple stories to share. From System 6 to Lion, from a Mac LC to a MacBook Pro, from the iPod to the iPad we’re writing this with, Apple gadgets have simply been a happy part of our life.

Our guest columnist has been fucking annoying for the past three years.

After much prayer and serious consideration, I have decided that I will not be seeking the 2012 GOP nomination for President of the United States. As always, my family comes first and obviously Todd and I put great consideration into family life before making this decision. When we serve, we devote ourselves to God, family and country. My decision maintains this order.

If you’ve been following the news about GOP voter-denial drives, you know that new registration requirements just happen to exclude folks who tend to vote for Democrats. But we’ve never come across an example that puts the problem into focus.

Until now.

Dorothy Cooper is 96 but she can remember only one election when she’s been eligible to vote but hasn’t.

The retired domestic worker was born in a small North Georgia town before women had the right to vote. She began casting ballots in her 20s after moving to Chattanooga for work. She missed voting for John F. Kennedy in 1960 because a move to Nashville prevented her from registering in time.

We are Anonymous! Recently something very disturbing has come to our attention. You must take all notices and information claiming to be ‘Anonymous’ with a grain of salt. Consider EVERYTHING.

Operation Invade Wall Street is bullshit! It is a fake planted operation by law enforcement and cyber crime agencies in order to get you to undermine the Occupy Wall Street movement. It proposes you use depreciated tools that have known flaws such as LOIC.

Our guest columnist seems to have watched “Casino Jack” recently. He’s also a sixteen-term congresscritter from Virginia. Oh, and he’s a Republican.

My conscience has compelled me to come to the floor today to voice concerns I have with the influence Grover Norquist, the president of Americans for Tax Reform, has on the political process in Washington.

My issue is not with ATR’s goal of keeping taxes low.

Like Ronald Reagan said, and I believe, “the problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.” I want to be perfectly clear: I do not support raising taxes on the American people.

My concern is with the other individuals, groups, and causes with whom Mr. Norquist is associated that have nothing to do with keeping taxes low.
