Of course, the very notion is preposterous, but then all words and thoughts in some form are imaginary – making sense of them requires a shared knowledge and set of beliefs to make them come to life. Where the problem arises is when art starts to imitate life, for who would have thought that the make-believe of a two-year-old's predictions about the weekend's football action might actually yield a winning bet or two.
