Steve Wozniak says his fellow Apple co-founder Steve Jobs needs to relax. In the wake of Jobs stepping down as CEO of the company they both founded, the Woz said, “Steve needs now to just have some ‘Steve time’ … He deserves it.” Why?

It takes so much out of anyone to be under just constant pressure and demands like that,” Wozniak said of his fellow mogul. As to the future of Apple, Wozniak is optimistic: “Remember, [Jobs] was surrounded by great, great people at Apple … those people are still there.” It’s true. Chief Operating Officer Tim Cook, who will take over as Apple CEO, has effectively run the company since Jobs’ medical leave in January. Short story: The iPad 3 and iPhone 5 are gonna be so awesome.

A second suspect then joined him. Jennifer Goodwin, Penn’s agent, confirmed to The Associated Press. that the actor was robbed early Tuesday morning.

He said the story is set sometime after the events of the second movie and that there’s a plan to bring Neil Patrick Harris back, despite the fact ( spoiler alert! ) that he was killed in “Harold & Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay.”
