Red-Headed Oprah: Woz-dating D-lister Kathy Griffin to open Mac-based girls’ school in Mexico

“Comedian Kathy Griffin [and “My Life on the D-List” star] reports she’ll be heading to Mexico in April for the launch of a girls’ school — “like Oprah,” she says, referring to Oprah Winfrey and her famous Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa. What does Kathy aim to do? ‘I thought it would be a good way to get press in Mexico. I can pass along the morals and values that are important to me in my life and get my name in the Puerto Vallarta newspaper,’ she deadpans,” Marilyn Beck and Stacy Jenel Smith report for The National Ledger.

“But seriously, folks. It’s real. ‘Steve Wozniak is supplying all the equipment. When he heard about it, he came in on it, which makes it special and wonderful,’ Kathy says. ‘If nothing else, they’ll get some Apple computers.’ Griffin and the billionaire Apple Computer cofounder have been dating since last summer,” Beck and Smith report.

    “…a dozen hacked Apple IIs with no cases….”

    That way the cases can be used as structural elements in the building itself.

    Apple and adobe — together at last!

    Hey, any event I’ve ever worked (Video, Production, or Lighting) both Woz and KG have been class acts. Her comedy is an act. Although, some have a hard time separating the person from the act.

    And I know Woz is into education.
    In fact, that’s his ONE BIG THING: education.
