Steve Jobs is my HomeBoy

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Local DJ on Kelowna rock station said today that Jobs did a lot of acid at one point of his life, he said it really opened up his mind?

Now that Steve Jobs has expired, does he qualify for EI?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Pancreatic Cancer is PC.

What happens when Steve gets to the Gates?

Too bad, but he's been fighting that cancer for a long time.
Actually hung in a lot longer than expected.

I don't reeeeeeealllllllly don't get why everyone is poking fun at the fact a 56 (or what ever) year old genius died! As I get older I realize 56 is too damn young! The dude was only a few years older than me when he started his battle with cancer.

Cancer sucks! :crazy:

I wish it would fuck off already!
BTW, NOT A FLAME ... JUST AN OBSERVATION ... :P

How could one not laugh at Steve Irwin?

He's a crocidale hunter that was killed by a sting ray... or as it's also known. The poodle of the sea! :shock:

And more to the point, what if there's two buttons on the Gates and not one, which one does he push?

Also, can he go straight to heaven, or does he have to sync himself there via iTunes?
