Steve Jobs
to be honest i didn't know who Steve Jobs was until i heard on the radio that he had passed away and i asked my parents about him and they said he created apple's products. in class i watched a video in dedication to him and i realized what an amazing guy he was because i came to find out that he dropped out of college and was also homeless at one point but yet came up with the most used technology today such as the i-pod, i-phone, i-pad and mac. something the speaker said that got my attention was "live each day like it's your last and one day you'll be right" this quote was very inspiring to me. Steve probably never intended to do this and it makes me think anything is possible and you don't have to be the smartest person in the world to create something or do something big in your life.

great connections to the video about steve jobs. he also has many critics, but overall, he did some amazing things in life. one story we didn't touch on was a story about his biological father. steve had frequented his father's restaurant in san francisco for many years without knowing he was related. when steve's sister found their father, steve wanted nothing to do with him. the man told steve's father that he couldn't raise his children when he was younger, but eventually ran a successful restaurant. he told steve's sister, "We had famous people in here every day. Even STEVE JOBS would come in! And he was a great tipper!" apparently this man only learned he was steve jobs' father after steve passed away. interesting...
