Before you will stand James Dean, undead and smiling warmly with both eyes and mouth.
He is wearing a well-fitted UPS uniform and carrying a Bluthner Idyllic Excellence glass piano stuffed with newly-minted Benjamins in one hand, and a 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing in mittelgrün, brimming with fresh cut Juliet Roses in the other.
How strong he is!
In the other, he hands you a puppy – a Cavalier King Charles spaniel.
Yes, he has three hands.
The whole thing is somehow dipped in platinum, rolled in precious gemstones, and presented in an atmosphere of complete and utter peace, scented with new-mown hay and just a hint of Comme Des Garcons Amazingreen Eau De Parfum.
Aretha, Dusty, Marvin and Amy are cheerfully singing “Oh Happy Day” in the background.
Now, there’s puppies everywhere!
Someone is licking your face, but who?
