看有人谈Steve Jobs，我也说说我的看法。
Jobs所在的Apple，用Apple ][ 最早的把计算机从实验室大规模的普及到普通百姓家。
你说Jobs完全是依靠Woz也好，
但不能否认的事实是一个大学都没有毕业的Jobs作为CEO在25岁那一年（1980年）带领
Apple上市，AAPL是自从Ford
以来的最大的IPO，Silicon Valley的VC也是从那个时候开始腾飞的。AAPL的故事在电

Jobs所在的Apple后来又推出了Macintosh，世界上第一款采用图形界面的电脑，你说
Apple是偷Xerox Parc的技术也
好，但Apple的确是第一个把这个技术普及开来的公司。今天我们每个人在电脑上无论

文艺作品里的 metaphor 或 dramatization 是为了突出作者的观点而使用的一种工具
，无需跟工具去较真。就像毕卡索的画，四不象，但这四不象却能帮助表达毕卡索眼里
的立体人物形象。或许乍看不真实，但当你抛开这层 “假”，你会看到更多。
就像阿甘先生的长跑，莫名其妙，既假又 stupid，世界上哪有人那么傻！但 Winston
Groom 就是利用那么一个智力不足的人所作的傻事，来描绘一个无需任何高调理想的坚
持。不是为了乳癌而跑，不是为了热带雨林而跑，不是为了任何目的，他就是坚持地跑
~~~世间已经绝迹的坚持精神。阿甘这人物虽然假且 stupid，但却是用来表达这种精神
的最好工具！

The story can be seen as a metaphor. The father leaving on a boat signifies
his death and the images of the daughter watching for him to come back is
signifying her always thinking about him throughout her life. Towards the
end when the now elderly daughter begins to travel through the overgrown,
dried up riverbed is supposed to explain that she has died and is now

As proven on the field, whatever they had planned at the halftime

CK was sacked for a 3rd and long, not even close to FG range.
That's enough to prove the argument of the power outage being
