I am a small man, with small ideas. And I'm proud of it.

I like focus, detail and precision. I like examining the mundane, the available, the free. I avoid the rare, the precious or the hard to get.

I see nothing wrong in me.

Our world has been ransacked by Giants. They demand their fees and taxes. They dominate the media. They rampage if their names aren't mentioned in connecting with each and every event. They create their own events to make sure they are mentioned.

I like walking down the sidewalk, along strip malls and seeing people driving in their cars. I like the daily rythym of work and small successes of making a program work, or watching a deal fail.

I would like my world even more, if I didn't have to avoid the deadly footsteps...of the Giants.
