Y’all, I tried, but I still do not get why I would want to use Path. I just deleted the app from my phone (again).

Been there, done that.
In 1982, Jobs began dating Joan Baez. One day, he told the folk singer about a Ralph Lauren dress which would be “perfect” for her. “I said to myself, far out, terrific, I’m with one of the world’s richest men and he wants me to have this beautiful dress,” Baez recalled.

Please consider giving $20 or so to CoSupport’s campaign to build Brown Elementary School a basketball court. It’s a cause close to my heart, and knowing...
