This lady on that PBS antique show bought a vase for $3 at a garage sale in Georgia. Some old man told her it was worth around $3500.

George Lucas's main function now that he's finished with star wars is to show up unexpectedly on the set of other movies, look at their special effects and tell the director, "you know, you can do all of that with computers now."

and Steve becomes one of the largest shareholders of Disney, a corporation that seems to be interested in pushing online video content from its myriad of networks through some funny little program called iTunes, which is owned by...Steve Jobs. Funny how that works out.
