Don't worry DG, if pshrynk certified him sane, he's out of his mind. Then again, when was the last time we took orders from a complete (or maybe incomplete) loon locked in a cage in the back of the taxi? When I last looked it was RSE driving with VR riding shotgun. The transdimensional-fullinsanity-monkey in the trunk cage has an IV of ZCs so he's no threat to anyone except maybe himself.

Very true. I'm out of my mind like a hermit crab is out of his shell, and I'm looking for a few new brain pans to set up shop in.

29th February, 2009, at approximately 56:12pm, on the corner of Filbert and Wall Street, Trafalgar Heptagon, San Franhattan, if I've done my calculations correctly.

A recent hypothesis suggests the entire universe is a hologram. At Montsnmags Taxi Service, on such principles we build the interiors of our taxis. Thus, when you last looked you affected the outcome, and the universe has fundamentally changed since. Now you are a transdimensional-full-insanity-monkey in the trunk cage, the Professor is a man in a propeller-beanie and a monkey-mask, and he's currently taken a long cool drink from dg (who is now a zorange crystal glass with a twirly straw full of Zany Carter Deluxe).

RSE and VR are on the roof going through your luggage looking for bacon and daffodils.

I think the question is redundant in hindsight ("hindsight" being the operative word - you been workin' out, desertgrandma?).

or alternatively xraysight, meaning the need for any clothes to come off is redundant....

You have a working GPS, show me the way outta here? Mine keeps telling me to turn right at the next corner, in a voice sounding eerily familiar.

Out of tea?

Eww, Rooibos. I don't like red forests... I'd rather have some Earl Gray.

I've never quite managed to develop a taste for Rooibos. And in fact, Chai is pretty much the only "flavored" tea I drink. (Ok, also sometimes jasmine, because I developed a taste for it in China.) I usually prefer plain tea-plant tea leaves, though I like variety in source and drying method (green, oolong, black, etc.) Sometimes I drink plain peppermint tea, though.

Dear Sir,

Due to apparent mental incapacitation, I have been granted power of attorney over Mr. LazyScot. As such, your letter has been passed on to me.

The medical personnel treating Mr. LazyScot are somewhat at a loss as a cause to the source of his incapacity, and following my disclosure of your letter, wonder if you might be able to shed some light on his rather strange behaviour. Among his "symptoms" are:
  • an insistence on wearing a tin-foil all-in-one suit with hood, and a fencing mask, all the time (this has provided a challenge in administering electroconvulsive therapy),
  • a habit of answering questions with phrases such as "be careful asking questions, you might be acutelated if you ask the right question", or "the blue one... no, no the other blue one, yes that blue one, over there, next to the fish" before giggling manically and ending up rolling around on the floor in hysterics.
  • he is very upset if his USB key is removed from him, the one brief period when it was taken from him all that was seen was a partial list of filenames before he grabbed it back (the charge nurse of the day is still on sick leave), among the filenames was the cryptic "Who Vera, Harv"
  • at a thankfully decreasing rate (currently about once per day) he shouts "incoming" and appears to anyone watching to go very fuzzy before falling over and saying someone incomprehensible things like "that tasted mauve",
  • he breaks into a cold sweat when anything like a small fury animal appears (generally he is kept clear of any Television Sets),
  • he seems to have developed an immunity and all sedatives, and, judging by the time he found the senior consultants' cocktail cabinet, he is also resistant to alcohol.

Despite the extensive medical publications his condition is providing them with, they would appreciate it if you can provide any useful information. I will gladly pass the such information on. I am assuming that, given their interest in your letter, you would not wish to contact them directly.

Yours Sincerely,

Mr Xander Tortion, LLB,
Partner, Billit, Chargeit and Grabit,
Legal Services.
