Item the First

I learned of Steve Jobs' death tonight at the local branch of the public library. On my MacBook Pro, which might have disappointed Mr. Jobs somewhat, seeing that my machine is some few years behind the current retail cutting edge. No matter. I benefitted from his work and that of those working with, for and under him just the same.

Merci beaucoup, M. Jobs. Requiescat in pacem.

Item the Second

It seems that the Army of Paul Krugman may indeed have arrived in Manhattan...and elsewhere across the planet. We may have hope yet of averting an economic apocalypse that seems to have been in the planning stages for a while now. (By whom, and whether by accident, design or some unholy amalgam...yet to be decided upon.)

Item the Third

Ontario concludes its latest provincial election tomorrow.

If you've got legal voting rights here in Ontario and haven't already exercised them thus far? Tomorrow, please do.

Vote.

I'm a little disappointed to learn that CBC television is televising the hockey game rather than the election tomorrow. I mean, I enjoy hockey, but isn't the election more important?

Not quite sure I understand the "logic" of it myself!

I voted over a week ago, but I will be *working* as a poll clerk tomorrow. :-)

That's you and [livejournal.com profile] james_nicoll, then.

Thanks for your service!
