Nyle and Peta were next with a cha cha/tango that was absolutely terrific. During the judges’ critiques, Carrie Ann Inaba attempted to say “Thank you for showing us your beautiful heart when you dance,” in sign language, and it seemed that both her attempt and her meaning brought Nyle to tears. The judges awarded the pair three 10s — a perfect 30 for their efforts. Finally, Paige and Mark performed a salsa/jive that had tricky footwork, great choreography and was hot, hot, hot with a ton of hip action. It was at this point in the show, when head judge Len Goodman said, “If this was judged purely on dancing, you’re the one to beat,” that I got the feeling that Paige and Mark were not going to win. But Mark really helped Paige become a confident and excellent dancer, and their final dance received three 10s for a perfect 30 from the judges.

Before, it never dawned on me that I had something to say. Blues was something I grew into. I appreciated it in a whole other way than when I was younger. It’s a legacy that I’m really proud of.

The truth is, Wozniak has always been the second Steve. Steve Jobs, Wozniak’s Apple co-founder, is mercurial and aloof, but he is adored. For years, Apple fans have hung on his every word. He is praised in the media as a business genius, which he is, and applauded for a fashion-forward sense of style, which he possesses. But being at the museum with Wozniak, listening to him talk about his love and loyalty for San Jose, and his heartfelt conviction that computer technology can make the world a better place for everyone, and his pride in Apple, left me with a question: I wonder if we’re worshiping the wrong Steve?.
