Abstract

Once upon a time, cave man hunted and gathered while cave woman looked after cave kids and cave kitchen. Life was a struggle. Survival was the only goal. Then came, not too soon after, trains, cars, welfare, television, the microwave, celebrity big brother and so on. For most of us, survival is second nature, giving us plenty of time to think about the ambiguity of our purpose beyond it. We all know death is coming and well, we'd all like to do something or be somebody before the curtain falls.

In 2002, a journalist asked comedian Ricky Gervais: "what advice would you give to someone who wants to be famous overnight?" to which he replied, "go out and kill a prostitute."
