Dear Steve: Steve Jobs Answers Your Email Questions

By Brian Briggs filed Thursday, July 8 3:00 AM ET

Most questions Steve gets are related to Apple, and his replies make the big tech blogs. However, Steve sometimes gets questions that aren't Apple related, but he still takes time out of his busy schedule to answer those questions too. Here are some of those exchanges...

UPDATE: And yes, these are all real responses by Steve Jobs.

Dear Steve,

I'm a 57 year old man from Peoria and I have an enlarged prostate, which makes urinating a challenge. My weak flow will often dribble on my hands, which totally grosses me out. I know you've had some medical issues. Do you have any advice that might be helpful?

Steve: Nope. Just don't hold it that way.

Dear Steve,

I'm really getting tired of your jeans and black turtleneck attire at keynote speeches. Year after year, it's the same old thing, so much for dressing different. How about next speech you put on leather chaps and a bikini top while wearing make up that makes you look like Gene Simmons from KISS?

Tired of Black

Steve: Nope, not happening.

Dear Steve,

I want to have this mental disorder where I think my arms are pecans and my legs are almonds. I'm not sure why I want it, but I think if you deliver the white iPhone 4 before July 10, I'll develop this disorder.

Steve: Are you nuts? We are doing the best we can.

Dear Steve,

My grandmother told me that I should bake chocolate chip cookies for 11 minutes, but the recipe says 12 minutes. What do you think of my grandmother's advice?

Steve: Completely Wrong. Just wait.
