92 year old Daring Fireball (almost)
Friday, May 25th, 2007
Los Angeles, California. Tomorrow my mother will be 92 and one of the things she wanted for her birthday was a new “uber-geek” t-shirt. What better t-shirt for a die-hard Mac user than a DF* classic. None of her contemporaries know that the heck it means but any serious Mac user who sees her will. Of course if they ask her who Gruber’s "jackass of the week" is she’ll say "George Bush" and get off easy.
*Daring Fireball Daring Fireball is the definitive site for those of us who follow all things Macintosh on the technical side and it’s written and published by John Gruber. My mother can barely use her Mac let alone differentiate between 6 and 8 bit video so she can’t join the class action.
Wonderful!
Happy Birthday to your Mum! Have a great day Richard,
All the best,
Jon
Jon, I’ll let her know, thanks.
Best wishes from the other side of the Atlantic too!
Thanks David, I’ll let her know. In typical fashion we have a packed day today: bill paying in the morning, then a drive across the city to the LA Arboretum to look at the blooms, then a fancy lobster dinner down in Santa Monica. I’m tired thinking about it.
