I tested my tagline on some friends. They didn’t get it. So I added, “Buckle your seatbelt, Dorothy”. I tested it with a friend, an American this time. He said, everybody’s supposed to understand it, at least in the States. So I removed the Dorothy part. It’s here, you know, just in case you’d need it.

Where would I be happiest? In my ideal world, of course. Everybody has one and each world is different. In my world, I have the most beautiful women and houses and cars and whatever. In your world, you have all of them. If we take it too seriously, if we can’t admit that we’re living in a common, maybe-not-ideal world, it can make big troubles. But dreaming about it is definitely safe if I’m not going to act on it. To make it come true, that’s another piece of cake or post of blog.

But how does it look like? How does it feel to be there? It’s not easy to answer. Is there murder in the ideal world? Is there money there? Is the annoying next-door lady there? Is your ex there? To put it another way, if you can choose whatever you like after death, what heaven would you make up for yourself?

You can remove all the dark sides of life, erase murder, poverty, sadness from your heaven. Then you would die of boredom. No problem, you say, let’s remove boredom, too. Philip K Dick had a character in the Eye in the sky who removed everything she didn’t like until she found herself in an empty universe.

I want murder because I like detective stories, I just don’t want murder to take place where I live. Well, in an ideal world, I would try it once to experience it, then undo it somehow, because I am a good and moral person after all.

Nem mindegy.

When I practised Aikido, my master told us, Let your opponent hit where he wants to, then let him fall where he wants to. I would apply the same Aikido strategy with spammers. They send out tons of mails in the hope that one out of a thousand will click on a link. Let’s make them happy, let everyone click on the links. Plugins could be added to mail clients that processes each spam and clicks every single link in it. Spammers would get many times more clicks, they would need a larger infrastructure to cope with it, and a click wouldn’t mean an intention to buy anymore.

This is the title of the radioplay that I sent yesterday to the BBC radioplay competition. Cross your fingers, so you’ll see my name on the shortlist in August.
