   Heh heh heh.... It's good to see Steve is back & with his humor intact.   
   You too badgolferman. It's the Apple trolls whom I decry. Not Steve.   
      
   What's interesting is Apple says the most important thing is the Emoji.   
   And Apple has the best marketing organization in the world.   
      
   So they know that emojis are literally the main thing customers care about.   
      
   So it's good to know Apple has been working hard giving us what we need.   
   Now even I have to get a taste of these fantastic eight new Apple emojis!   
      
   Luckily I have a 10th generation iPad that had to be "activated" over the   
   Cupertino matrix servers, but it has no Apple ID associated with it.   
      
   Even though I can't add any apps to it without that Apple ID associated   
   with the iPad, I can update the software through the Cupertino servers.   
      
   I just used the atrocious copy & paste between the iPad & Windows (Apple   
   couldn't possibly have designed a worse interaction in the real world)   
   to bring over this proof that even Apple says the big deal is Emojis!   
       
      
   Woo hoo! *Apple added 8 new emojis*! Apple spends my money wisely.
