There. I just broke the story. The news came out LITERALLY twenty seconds ago, making me one of the 9,000 bloggers in the world to tell you this within the first five minutes of the 'aftermath'.
Jobs had been sick for some time with numerous kinds of internal cancerous problems. Also, he recently resigned his CEO post, which, if this was a novel, would be referred to by my annoying english teacher as 'foreshadowing'.
Fortunately, there is hope. Jobs left behind a prototype 'iClone' app, which could be used to resurrect him and have him up and inventing in no time.
This really is a metaphor for the economy. It can be added into the great pantheon of name puns: Bernie Madoff, who MADE OFF with a ton of people's money. Anthony Wiener, who texted a pic of his wiener. Rick Santorum, who... never mind.
And Steve Jobs, whose death has now become synonymous with the great death of American jobs. Hence this post's title.
So, in memory, I give you... Steve Jobs.
