Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more! ~ Dr. Seuss, How The Grinch Stole Christmas!

Fake tan, big glasses, an invitation to the launch of a new lipstick; you've hit the big-time baby. Consider yourself a celebrity.

The modern celebrity needs not a blockbuster film, a bestselling album or royal lineage to grace the cover of magazines. In fact, today's celebrities don't even need talent. What other profession requires such a small skill set?

Hairdressers, chefs, gardeners, anyone who seeks fame can attain it with the right stylist and attitude. But with so many someones running around the place is the new exclusive in-crowd the no-one? God help us! We'll all end up on the cover of OK! magazine.

Think of 400:seconds as a peephole into worlds you've heard about but never dared to venture into. Focusing on a new subject every month, each issue will bring you feature stories, book reviews, movie reviews and other bits and pieces to inspire and amuse you, or maybe just pass the time.

The next issue of 400:seconds will take you into the world of all things Americana in our Road Trip issue. We'll take you to some of the places we'll be experiencing along the way, including murder mystery dinner on the Delta King Riverboat in Sacramento, the neon-tack of Las Vegas baby, and endless stretches of highway through the Mojave Dessert.

Retracing the steps of some of the greats who have gone before us we'll also be reviewing Jack Kerouak's On the Road, Tom Wolfe's The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby and a host of other books and movies to inspire your very own road trip.
