“Our legendary personalities are evergreen ‘brands’ with the benefit of worldwide recognition,” reads a message on the Richman agency’s website. Guardian UK Article *vomits* Where is the line drawn between “public figure” and “celebrity”? How can a dead person have an agent, particulary where there are no specific works concerned other than a sense of character? It’s one thing to insist that Duck Soup is a work that should be protected (which any more simply means controlled by whomever has the most buX0rs), but shouldn’t personalities and such pass into the public domain as well? ( boingboing : Bill Gates 0wns Einstein, Groucho , Freud, Asimov, Fuller, et al )
OMG, I want a "Hydra Wind" so badly I could scream! I'd want it fitted out a little differently, of course; the one they show is way too "expensive cosmetic surgery clinic waiting room" for my tastes. But otherwise? How about a mashup of these people and these for an amphibious, ecologically sensitive RV experience? I would never pay rent again!
ReplyDeleteI just need a couple million dollars. Hmmm.
I think you should bag one of those XV truckies, and then drive through someone else's doublewide, usurping their location, annexing it into your own mobile kingdom, in the tradition of our RV-based ancestors.
