          Very soon, obscurity will turn into a prize commodity for the filthy rich.

                I plead guilty. Not having to fend off groupies is an unexpected bonus.

                  Fool's names,

                  Like fool's faces,

                  Are often seen

                  in public places...

                  Why be a public fool when you can be one privately???

                      I think somehow there is the wish in everyone of us to be famous. If not, why are there so many shows on TV like "Germany´s next Topmodel" or "Deutschland sucht den Superstar"? If one hasn´t got any special talents, there is still the possibility to do something extremely extraordinary or disgusting. That´s the same story in Germany, too!
