Here's Joe mugging with friend Gail at a pool party at friend Miki's house in the 70s. Joe loved being photographed with women, especially nude women - life of an artist, I guess. Joe's other love was Harmilda, the mascot of his hometown, Harvard, Illinois, 'Milk Center of the World.' Anybody who loved Joe's 'laughing cow' series, saw the influence. Joe was smart, perceptive, a wit. He played passing-good sax and his canvasses always bubbled with the bounce and movement and sway of life. What a loss...

The FBI uses Macs according to Security Focus columnist Scott Grannerman after an FBI agent came and lectured his CS class at Washington U. "[M}any of the computer security folks back at FBI HQ use Macs running OS X, since those machines can do just about anything: run software for Mac, Unix, or Windows, using either a GUI or the command line. And they're secure out of the box."

"'If you're a bad guy and you want to frustrate law enforcement, use a Mac'... Macs evidently stymie most law enforcement personnel. They just don't know how to recover data on them. So what do they do? By and large, law enforcement personnel in American end up sending impounded Macs needing data recovery to the acknowledged North American Mac experts: the Royal Canadian Mounted Police." Woops... so much for the Mac's squeaky clean, creatives and education image...
