But this is what his obituary might look like if he happened to die:
Steve Jobs’s Obituary, As Run By Bloomberg (thanks GAWKER)

Special thanks to Bloomberg for releasing this.
This came up in the blogosphere a long time ago — but it’s still funny.
At Giants Statium in San Francisco, Yahoo owns the ad next to the outfield marker for 404′.
If you spend a fair amount of time on the web, you’ll know that 404 is the server error code that is returned by a webserver when the page is not found.
This used to be just a funny coincidence, but it’s gotten to be kind of sad lately with the disintegration of Yahoo! over the past few months.
But it’s still gives me a bit of a chuckle that a web company owns an ad next to something that says 404.
Thanks to Michael Arrington for the photo.
So a friend just sent me a link to this blog dedicated to the worst possible tatoos. Some of these can be excused by late-night liquor-driven decision-making. And others… who knows? Like this:
Oh! Chewie is Irish! That explains so much!
What?
There’s more. It really just keeps getting worse as you go.

Dear Iran, re: your recent ‘missile launch’ :

Ok. One more of these then I’ll quit I swear:
As Seen on TV: The 10 Most Laughably Misleading Ads
#1? The Magniscribe Pen, where the woman is ‘calling now’ to order the pen she so desperately needs USING one of the pens? Classic.
And I’m not sure this is real or not, but check out the reviews page for #2: My Lil Reminder — a voice recorder/reminder system. Click here and do a search for ‘Bob of Ohio’.
This is completely awesome:

I have to say, though, I love the websites with a big sticker on the front page that say ‘Top Secret’. Shh… don’t tell anyone else on the internet!
But really. The best part of it is these guys. Spokespeople for #5. The brains of the operation:
Just becuase it’s so amazing, i’ll provide you with a little excerpt of what you get when you watch the video. Pure science.
“I’d like to explain how our product works. The enzymes in our product break down the molecular structure of the fuel. So if you were to look at gasoline or diesel under a microscope, on a slide, you’d see clusters of molecules. Much like clusters of grapes. Our enzymes attack those clusters and break them down into individual molecules, allowing for a more complete burn of the fuel. So if you’re shooting less out your tailpipe as an emission of our byproduct, you’d go further down the road and your fuel economy would be on the rise. It’s as simple as that. Thank you.”
It’s like he learned chemistry from Peter Griffin.
