Its not all about the soap...

I am a fan of various dramas or "soaps" as people like to call them. One in particular at the moment is Emmerdale.

For all those people missing out on the awesomeness that is emmerdale, I wanted to fill you in on one particular storyline. Now before you exit your screen, it is a interesting storyline. A girl in emmerdale, which I am not too sure of her age has just started acting a storyline that invovles her...having a bonemarrow transplant. I thought it was a excellent storyline, in the sense that not many people know any real information about this type of transplant. Yes they get kidney transplants, understand the process of liver transplants but when you say bone marrow transplant... well lets just say some people have responded in a very strange way:
"Do you have to wait until the person dies to get their bone?"...."no" would be my perplexed answer.

So if you are interested in following this storyline then you should start watching Emmerdale.

I am also gutted (even though I dont like Apple products as a consumer) that Steve Jobs lost his battle with cancer at the age of 56 on Wednesday. He showed great determination and strength throughout being told he was ill and accepted the concept that he wasnt going to win that particular fight in life.

A great quote which he said in a speech, once he found out he wasnt going to be able to treat it was this:

"Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart."

 

If that isnt a reminder to be grateful of life, then I don't know what is. Within hours of his passing, Apples shares drop 1% which only adds to the big question "Will Tim Cook be able to pull it off?" and since his disappointing release of the iphone 4s (not the iphone 5 like everyone hoped) shares dropped more. Steve Jobs was Apple. He will always continue to be the person that created such great technology back in the beginning with his apple mac's and his new thoughts on the world of technology.apples-tim-cook-continue-steve-jobs-work

I personally believe that Samsung and Apple in the future will be the main rivals of each other, especially with the current court arguments and the recent news that Samsung is taking Apple to court (normally its the other way round)

So yes.... my post summary is this: 

 

Life is ever changing, too fast for some, too slow for others, but if you take it for granted.... well you will end up with nothing.

Toodles for now.
