Escape

He was the greatest escape artist the world had ever known.

No trap, no bondage, no cage, chain or restraint could hold him, too nimble and dexterous was he, too gifted in the ways of escape, too naturally inclined toward personal freedom.

But fashions in entertainment change, and with time his audience dwindled. He knew something had to be done.

His biggest stunt yet, to bring him into the modern world and allow him to escape his approaching obscurity.

He leapt into a swimming pool full of iPod headphones, promising to find his way back...

…the body was never recovered.

New Toy

Nobody knew what it was, or what it did, or what we’d use it for, but everyone agreed: We simply had to have it.

It would be amazing, groundbreaking. It would change the world forever.

I was no better than anyone, I admit. Mine was pre-ordered months ago, I’d receive it the day of it’s release.

I couldn’t really afford it, I’d put it on a credit card and had no idea how I’d pay it off.

But I’d have it first.

And I’d no doubt it’d change my life.

When the iDdiction was released, I would finally be complete.
