I was obsessed with early Apple in the late 90’s and emailed Woz one night on a whim. He wrote me back a few hours later. Such a wonderful guy.

I hope this is nothing serious.

Ha! I used to email Woz and Jobs all the time as a kid. They'd both respond! It was wild!

Woz is a truly nice guy. I wish him all the best.

I lost the email but I emailed Jobs back when he killed all the Mac clones and he wrote me a great personal email back with his reasons. Might have been a jerk to a lot of people but he had some good qualities

I mean, making a company worth billions pretty much guarantees you have to step on a lot of people on your way up and do some shady shit.

Some of the whacky meeting stories involving him are way out there.

The stories we’re gonna hear about Taylor swift in a few decades are gonna be legendary.

“She once made me eat a live bat while we were getting set up for a show. Said she would personally ensure every one of my family members would be fired from their jobs if I didn’t. Halfway through, she stopped me and said ‘good job, you can stop now’ and took the now dead bat from me and then consumed it herself by unhinging her jaw and swallowing it whole.” - Taylor Swift backup dancer, 10 years from now probably
