TommyLog – A Knock at the Door

If you needed help, would you ask? A person named Tony knocked at my door last night, saying he was homeless and asked for a warm sweater or coat.

What would you do in that situation? Would you give him a warm coat or sweater? I know how I responded.. how would you?

TommyLog – The Things We Take for Granted – RIP Steve Jobs

NOTE: Sorry about the video quality. I wonder if my Zi8 is dying.

This past week we lost one of the greatest and most brilliant minds in my time and possibly ever. My father called and likened Steve Jobs to the mind of Albert Einstein, WOW now that’s saying a lot. To think Steve stared Apple in his home garage, was kicked out, brought back when the company was on the verge of death and today, Apple is one of the largest companies in world with stock selling right around $400.00. Stunning. So many tech items that we take for granted were made commonplace by Mr. Jobs and the team at Apple! GUI, WIFI, mouse, USB, iPod, iPad, iPhone and so many many more. What a life and what a legacy he leaves behind.

Now for the real question. What life and what legacy will we leave behind? Will we leave this world better then it was when we got here? That’s the true test of Steve and the life he left. He left this world so much better then it was when he got here. He did not accept the norm. He shot for perfection and it showed!
