Well, when you say "considering he made $4.9 billion in the last year alone", you mean his net worth increased by that much, not that there was a sudden increase in his checking account of 5 billion. I'm being pedantic, but it's one way to feel better about myself.

Haven't these glow in the dark balls been around for years? I remember playing catch with something made of a seemingly hard plastic shell that you'd have to "charge" next to a light or in the sun, and it kept its glow for a while after.

When asked to comment, Jobs replied "I, ninja. I mean, iNinja. Patent pending, suckas."

With a couple of action figures on the table, you could do this all the time.

@Stem_Sell: Not pricey enough then. Missing a 0.

There seems to be a giant Arthur C. Clarke shaped hole in this list. I remember reading "The City and the Stars" as a child, and that hooked me onto science fiction forever. Rendezvous with Rama? 2001 (or rather, the Sentinel, which pretty much encapsulates the Prime Directive)? Songs of Distant Earth? It's a crime to…

@ThisCharmingMan: Don't forget Battlefield Earth.

I would add Fantastic Voyage (a precursor /predictor to nanotech, right?) in there and drop Inception (decent, but overrated).

@TheSpoonyBard: It is, only if the road is paved with Ayn Rand fans and books she wrote.

Isn't there an easier way for him to get upskirt pics?

What about Space Cowboy?

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

I'd imagine stages 3 to 4 and then 4 to 5 would happen extremely quickly.

So back in the day, with Windows 2000 running, you used to be able to put icons in "Active Desktop Mode". And then you could "Hide all icons in Active Desktop Mode". And before you do all that, you take a screenshot, and put that as the wallpaper. And then you move the taskbar somewhere non-intuitive (the top of the…

@abhiroopb: Regarding Calcutta, what you mean is it's a big achievement for a young metro system, not a young city. Last time I checked, it's been around for 300+ years.

Once again, blame James Bond. I think Dr. No started the trend for villains / strange humanoids all wearing Nehru jackets. I can't think of an earlier film where I'd seen one. Other than, you know, Indian independence newsreels.
