This news story about a giant Lego man who washed ashore in Florida caught my attention this morning.
The 100-pound counterfeit statue [it's not really Lego, say spokesman for the company], is emblazoned with the words: NO REAL THAN YOU ARE. Which is good for a laugh if you think about it.
But imagine if someone had edited that to read: NO
LESS REAL THAN YOU ARE.
Then it becomes a chilling philosophical comment about life, our perceptions and the nature of reality in general. Don't you think?
A good editor could have made all the difference.
