  4. dgtljunglist says:

    fourth? I think they’re all in shock that something was posted.

  5. mads koch says:

    Great. I’m not alone. 5th

  6. j says:

    7? I can’t believe it. I love seeing a one after CARs. Now I must go elsewhere.

  7. fatbo says:

    wow. sure am glad I kept this rss feed in my bookmarks.

    iPWN!

    Gracious!

    Sakes Alive!

  11. Brother Mugga says:

    Why not write CARS *while* zooming around on a jet-pack? Then we’d all be happy. And you could infiltrate the underground bunker of a lazy-eyed evil genius at the same time. Three for one. It seems so obvious now I’ve said it.

  12. eh says:

    no ponies

  13. David says:

    See, CARS is not really dead!

  14. Sudo Nym says:

    The physical pages? You mean… there’s a real world out there somewhere?

    My God — this changes everything!

  15. Ivan says:

    JFC on jetpack leading a vast horde of lesbian ninja sexbots.
    Just to keep things in perspective.
    Oh. Free Cake too.

  16. Magnanimous Wang says:

    Macworld is a joke. And John Moltz is John Gruber.

  17. Aaron says:

    sure, just as the wound is about to heal, you rip the scab off.

  18. Hi Dearie,

    I think that you forgot to include the footnotes in your nice little article for that Mac World magazine. There are the little superscript “1″ and “2″, but no explanation below. Remember to always include your footnotes!

    And, honey? I hope you’re wearing clean underwear. You know what I always remind you.

    I hope you’ll be home for Memorial Day. We’ll have cake. I know you always like your cake.

    Mom

  19. CB says:

    Oh John. Welcome back. We love ya.

  20. Dingle Barry says:

    21st!!!!
    Uh… I’m slow.

  21. Moof says:

    The mystery is explained. John’s pulling a Dvorak! Drive hits to a reputable web site article by appealing to the lemmings of the one real true site. Wait a minute, wait a minute! John Moltz Dvorak! And here I thought it was Grüber.

  22. Ace Deuce says:

    Hey. who said you could post without warning us?

    Oh, sorry.

    How ’bout them (Sub)Mariners?

  23. begreen says:

    25th!

  24. Chris says:

    26th! w00t. Yay for something being posted.

  25. iMoo says:

    HA! Beat Huh? again! *sigh*

  26. Nxxx says:

    A miserable twenty-eight. Probably thirty-one by the time I get round to clicking the track ball.
    Oh and welcome back Master, we are not worthy.

  27. Huh? says:

    HA! Beat by iMoo again!

    Hey. Wait a second…..

  28. Sudo Nym says:

    The big Three-Oh!

    You know, Moltz, you could cover jet packs on a revitalized Crazy Apple Rumors blog. Just an idea.

    And, uh… where did you get that cake you’re eating?

  29. michael says:

    The hiatus is over! oh wait… sorry.

  30. [...] Just because CARS just got a post is no reason to freak out.  I mean, it’s not a real CARS post, is it? It’s just a link to a Macworld article.  An intelligent, well thought out, and [...]

  31. kingthedestroyer says:

    Nice to see that you can still post…well back to the salt mines.É

  32. Nobody will ever use more than 64K posts says:

    If you die in Macworld, you die for real.

  33. Pony RD says:

    So this whole thing has been a dream? I want my sexbots now, then , damnit!

  34. The Rocketeer says:

    There’s no need for jet packs on the iPhone, but I wouldn’t mind having an iPod dock added to my jet packs.

    Futuristically,

    The Rocketeer

  35. Mein iPhone ist kaput.

    Love,

    Manny.

  36. Gary says:

    I read that article without looking at the byline first and almost immediately had the strange feeling that I had been there before. Sure enough.

  37. [...] it worked do well for my most formidable predecessor, All I’m putting in this post is a link to a post I wrote about Delicious Library on my other [...]

  38. Another video that congratulates Steve Jobs on being the world’s greatest living human being? I mean, I’m a Mac guy, but…COME ON!

    Steve #%*& Jobs

    BTW, it’s pretty funny…

  39. Pony RD says:

    What the god damn hell is this “intended for mature audiences” crap?!

    I take complete offense at that!

    (see GSP, LLC tag at bottom – WTF!?)

    ; )

  40. vitamin fortified says:

    What is going on. I was expecting to see the usual boasting about being the 18th post. Or whether or not the Macworld article was the Real Moltz vs the Fake Moltz and someone done came and moved the furniture around, changed the light fixtures and put in fresh linen. Granted the old stuff was what the Thrift store rejected……

  41. Cherry says:

    New Layout?

    Foreboding…

  42. Brother Mugga says:

    Hang on . . . what’s going on with the new layout?

    Hiatus my arse.

    Hiatusmyarse.

    Hmmm: that sounds like a Bond baddie.

    Or ‘Ihaitusmyarse’.

    That’s probably more accurate, alas.

    Am I still typing this?

  43. John Moltz says:

    I’m like that old retired guy who keeps hanging out at his old office. “I got nowhere to go, Jimmy!”

  44. John Moltz says:

    Oh, by the way, there’s also an iPhone theme.

  45. Ace Deuce says:

    John, please, I’m begging you, use a different theme. The current one is too stark, the hierarchical levels are too similar, the link color is nearly black. IT HURTS MY EYES!

    At the very least you could steal the one from Darling Furball. It’s legible and easy on the eyes. Just substitute your traditional puke green color and you’d be set.

  46. John Moltz says:

    No. Maybe I’ll change the link color. Maybe I won’t.

    I really just wanted something that would load a lot slower. And I think I’ve accomplished that.

  47. REV says:

    NEW LOOK BEEYOTCHES!Does this mean that MacWorld’s buyout is official?

  48. REV says:

    NEW LOOK BEEYOTCHES!Does this mean that MacWorld’s buyout is official?

  49. REV says:

    Oops. Sorry ’bout that.

  50. blank says:

    Wouldyalookitdis…

  51. Sudo Nym says:

    I am the old retired guy who hangs out at his old office, and I’m flattered by the tribute.

    I think the new theme is the bee’s knees, not so much because of the design itself, as because the mere fact of change tells me that I’m not the last survivor of a nukeyoolar war after all.

  52. ed says:

    What we really want to know is – What is Ugluk doing these days?

  53. Sudo Nym says:

    Well, the Entity offered to drop Ugluk off in 20,000 BC. Of course, it’s possible he stayed here in the 21st century and took a job writing for Michael Savage, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly, or some other radio blowhard.

  54. Nxxx says:

    Ugluck for President.

  55. The Doctor says:

    The doctor is in.
    Fantastic!

  56. Doc says:

    Why is it that things keep changing? Why did CARS have to go away. Where is my beloved Evangelist, Guy? Why is my MacCentral bookmark now jumping to MacWorld? WHY MUST I UPDATE MY BOOKMARKS EVERY DECADE???

    Come back for reals, CARS, so I don’t have to adjust my daily news sites ONCE AGAIN. Pleaseeeeeee…

    (and BTW, why are there so MANY Mac useers, all of a sudden… I used to think I was kinda special, but now…)

  57. Ace Deuce says:

    Doc, you are special. Very special. They even have special classes for people like you.

  58. Steve G. says:

    @35: Best comment so far (assuming I’m able to award such an honor).

    I think I read somewhere that Gruber/Moltz delocated to here in Philly (yes, I meant “delocated”), so if I see him/them, I will try to get a picture.

  59. Nxxx says:

    Won’t you need one of those Stereo cameras to capture his dual personality?

  60. Steve G. says:

    I’d try the cell phone camera – it’s cheap enough so that if trying to capture their image breaks the camera, I won’t be that upset.

  61. Ace Deuce says:

    The police may already have mug shots available.
