gi joeAgain, a very obscure story. Some news sites reported that the first American soldier was captured in Iraq. Well, so far not a big surprise. Sooner or later this had to have happened. But already a day or so later, the news came out, that the “captured” soldier was just a toy figure. It is just a crazy story, that our media today can’t decide if a picture is just a real person or a toy.

This makes any stories brought to our homes every day very suspect. What is real and what is just fake? Is the face you are looking at a real one, a computerized one, or even just a toy? It reminds us that we are living more an more in an unreal world. This demands even more from all of us to be as unique as possible and to get our own brand of life going in the right direction. Keeping it authentic, unique, and keeping it up every day, without becoming a puppet, and just being your unique brand.

By the way, the toy is sold on eBay for $100-$250 now.
