It's very plausible that he really was referring to the present with that comment but its still pretty clear that everyone is reading way too far into it. It seems pretty reasonable to assume he was just making a flip remark without thinking of what would happen next. How could he? I know I wouldn't. How many regular (read: not famous) folks would think a quick tweet would ever get picked up like that even if they did work for the Apples of the world? I'm sure had there been reason to believe bloggers would jump on that one tweet he would've chosen his words more carefully. People like this guy tweet speculative stuff like that all day long and nothing comes of it most days so there was really no reason to expect it this time.
