“I don’t presume to tell you your business. I’m just a guy, okay? I mean, I claim no, like privileged prerogative. You know that, Jane. This isn’t about me anyway. It’s about you. It’s always about you.” Truck Stoppe looked at his hands with an earnest, albeit superior, smirk on his face.
Jane Doppelginger wasn’t surprised. “Okay, it’s about me. But just because I’m the center of attention, doesn’t mean I’m an exhibitionists. Boundaries get crossed… certain transgressions. It isn’t anybody’s fault. These things we say, Truck, these lives we talk about. Whose are they? I’m so sick of them” She lit up a joint an took a hit.
“What are you doing?”
“What?”
“We’ve got the Kaiser call at two.”
“I’m cool on Kaiser.”

01/31/2005 scoop (2): Windswept, lustreless, barren. The coyotes run. The cacti weep. Creaking ignposts lead us to the abyss.
01/31/2005 qualcomm: is this some kind of hurlyburlyism?
01/31/2005 The Rid (2): Mluh, still.
01/31/2005 Litcube: Jane is having a bad day.
01/31/2005 Litcube: Author, why is Truck Stoppe looking at his hands? To me, it was nearly construed as a self-conscious reaction at first, but he's doing it in an earnest, albeit superior manner.
01/31/2005 TheBuyer: The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it.

01/31/2005 John Slocum: I don't understand this one. But then again, there's no wine in it, so it doesn't surprise me it's above me.
01/31/2005 Mr. Joshua: slocum...contact me thru the usual channels
01/31/2005 John Slocum: are those the schllrorg channels, by any chance?
01/31/2005 Mr. Joshua: no, email
01/31/2005 Phony Millions (2): How do you come about an earnest smirk? Is the contradiction in terms intentional? Is 'exhibitionists' supposed to be plural even though it's the object of a singular subject? Is Jane's last sentence in the second paragraph supposed to have no period???

02/1/2005 Litcube: EWAN!?
02/1/2005 Ewan Snow: Yeah, I meant to take this one out of the queue before Sunday night, but fell asleep and forgot. More evidence of the madness pure acme hubris caused in my quest to corner the market on frozen concentrated orange juice...
