World Icons: Steve Jobs

I know enough about Steve Jobs to say that he is a damn visionary. Although I have never owned an Apple product in my life, I have used them long enough to be able to say that all those virtual arm-waving that Tom Cruise was doing in Minority Report is just a few generations away.

But still, summing up Steve Jobs in three letters: L.S.D. That's right. Anyone who's tried psychedelics has seen God, and is all right in my book. I mean, they could've died as soon as they met the Almighty, but they didn't. Why? Because they realized they purpose. A purpose which is far bigger than them. And for that, I tip my imaginary hat to you, Mr. Jobs. Although I do hope for the day when I myself could own an Apple product. Either that or five tabs of acid. Whichever comes first.


Steven Paul Jobs. 24 February 1955 - 5 October 2011.
