Apple Computer is posting time-lapse movies of the first 24 hours of the exterior of their newly-opened Apple Store Fifth Avenue. At approximately 5:40am this morning, an ingenious man stood before the camera and – shades of Apple CEO Jobs’ fav Bob Dylan’s groundbreaking video for “Subterranean Homesick Blues” – held simple messages long enough to be easily read in the time-lapse footage:
The cards read “Uschi Lang. I love you. Will you marry me?”

No I won’t.
I don’t see the guy in the Apple video. Have they edited him out??? That would be a shame.
Nice human interest story, but suppose the guy is just some deranged stalker with the hots for poor Uschi?
So, how long do we wait for an answer?
OMG YES MY DEAR! <3
There, you got your answer.
I’m in love with your brother. Sorry.
i saw it on the time lapse .. don’t know why Share the joy can’t see it
Doh. It’s there; I didn’t press the hour link.
SharetheJoy, he didn’t show up the first time I played 0500 either. I don’t know why. But the second time, he did. I saved the video. He’s there.
Share The Joy
Click on the 05:00 hour under the video
That’s fscking pathetic…
you’ve got to wonder what the woman looks like, if she actually agreed.
The bounds of desperation are infinite!
Share the joy, you’ve got to click on the appropriate time slot – 5:00 am…and that dude is there…there is no conspiracy…
That line was packed even up to 2am!!! I wonder if Bill Gates opened up a Winblows store what the outcome would be…?
and your dad … infact i love your whole family .. hope you dont mind?

Considering the restraining order this was a very creative, yet pathetic attempt to get my attention.
I’m already in love with vischi Xing!!!!!!
MDN can sucker us into commenting on the most inane, worthless, waste of space/time junk.
I’m sure Ms. Lang and Mr. Pathetic will make a handsome couple.
i hope i’m invited
“MDN can sucker us into commenting on the most inane, worthless, waste of space/time junk.”
And also brings out the worst of people. like the guy “WTF”.
What a queef!
Who can hate marriage? Geez…
This obviously wasn’t done with the intent of having her see it as it was happening. What do you want to bet that later he called her up — or was with her on the computer — and had her watch that particular hour of video?
I’m sure it was a lot of fun.
People commenting on this are full of the joys of spring…not!
How many of you sourpusses wish you had thought of it first… hey, the guy got some attention, and probably gets the girl. It has nothing to do with whether you, or I, would want to get the same girl or be with this guy. I’m sure a fair number of you (those that actually have a girl to propose to… yeah, right…) wouldn’t actually want the rest of us to see her face, or yours. So, just get a life, and leave the guy alone. I think what he did was cooler than cool. It’s preserved for posterity now.
i totally agree with huh? he was sooooo cute .. if only ever man cared that much

Didn’t know so many MDN posters were so cynical about love.
I wonder how long he had to stand there with each sign.
