Jan just sent me this link:

Click on it and it will take you to the Apple web site and you can see the memorial to Steve Jobs, which was organized for all of Apple’s employees.
It is wondrous.

My favorite speaker was Johnny Ive. Man, those Brits, they just know how to express their ideas and thoughts so beautifully. I think they call this being articulate. It makes my heart sing. I would like a transcript of his talk. I think it was packed with truth and full to the brim with love. That is my favorite combo! Truth, love (and throw in beauty) and we’re HOME!
My other favorite thing was watching Chris Martin give. his. ALL! Whatever you might think of the band, you have got to give it to Chris Martin — he gives EVERYTHING he has and he doesn’t hold back. He does in public what we all do when we dance in our bedrooms in front of the mirror. And I loved him for it, especially in this particular moment.
And I could just about tolerate Al Gore, and for me that is saying A LOT!
If, like me, the People Magazine article memorializing Steve Jobs didn’t cut it for you, this will.

I skipped to the end to hear Johhny Ive and you’re so right. So articulate and beautiful. And I too don’t care what anybody says, Chris Martin is earnest and optimistic in a world that is not and I’ll defend him til the end for it.
