Faithful viewer David Kingsbury pointed out the fact that President Clinton is spending this weekend at Steve Jobs' estate in Woodside, California, as mentioned in this UPI article. Now, most reasonable people would see nothing particularly noteworthy about President Clinton staying at Jobs' place for the weekend, as he winds his way down the fundraising trail. Thank heaven we're not reasonable people.
No, we're the ones who would much rather read a lot more into that seemingly harmless fact than "reasonable people" would consider savory. (And no, this has nothing to do with Clinton's alleged indiscretions with Paula Jones, Monica Lewinsky, or anyone else.) In fact, AtAT's sources report that Steve is secretly still actively searching for a permanent Apple CEO, though the official party line is that the search is on the "back burner." And just because the news services are claiming that Steve will not be joining the Clintons as they stay at his estate, that doesn't mean that he won't enter via the secret underground tunnels in order to keep his appointment with the commander-in-chief and family. See, Steve has decided that what Apple needs most these days is young blood. Very young blood.
Two words: Chelsea Clinton. You heard it here first. We expect the formal announcement of her CEO-ship won't come until she finishes up her freshman year at Stanford, but that still leaves plenty of time before she stars as the special guest at MacWorld Expo in July. The truth is out there.

 | | The above scene was taken from the 5/2/98 episode: May 2, 1998: Why are the Clintons staying at Steve Jobs' estate this weekend? Meanwhile, more rumors fly about Apple's upcoming consumer-level machine, and Rhapsody continues to improve, as it prepares for its next release at the upcoming WWDC...
Other scenes from that episode: 668: Here's to the Little Guy (5/2/98) Still more rumors about the alleged entry-level Mac are emanating from the high priest of osfuscation, Mac the Knife. Reportedly, the ADB bus and the serial ports are being left out on the upcoming low-cost motherboard, while the Universal Serial Bus (USB) replaces both of them... 669: Looking Forward To 1999 (5/2/98) It seems that we get a lot of mail from viewers wondering what's up with Rhapsody, Apple's next-generation operating system for servers and power users. Well, we're not following it as closely as we probably should be, primarily because none of us is a registered Apple developer, so we don't have access to the first developer release, which has been out for about six months now...
