in theory at least, anyone reading the story attentively should be able to work out the solution. of course, you may need to have the twisted mind of Rock Lobster to follow his notes, but he won't keep anything from you.

did i not mention i borrowed the car from Adrian ? it's been, ah, "modified" so that i could get to Lobster & Red's office without actually ever going through texas. bug problem : solved !

by the way, we're thrilled you love the story, perhaps you could do us a tiny favour, it seems there have been, ah, a few complaints from other tenants about Red's target practice, would you mind suggesting that he do that in a less sonorous environment ? or at least outside normal business hours ? thanks !
We have some misunderstandings with Red... As he pointed out, CB caps only crank out at 17-22 Decibels, and that's before the silencer. Unless Rocky has a problem with the plink of the BB, Red doesn't seem to understand where the noise complaint is coming from. It's quieter that an Aspire Revo's fan. Perhaps Rocky is mistaking the noises after one of Red's typical Tex-Mex lunches as gunfire....(It would account for the air pollution complaints as well)...

Normal business hours? Is there such a thing for a P.I.?

I'm lost. Red's office is in Texas. How can Rocky's be down the hall and in another state?

Red says to tell Rocky to come by Bonzo's Backfire and discuss the matter. He can now afford to by his own beer....

Of course, how else would you have been able to fit an infinite table inside?
