- Gecko-boy, seeking shelter from the Hawai'i rainy season, has just
- wandered into the Place and ordered a shot or two (or three) of
- Jack Daniels, when his vision begins to blur.
-
- "Hot damn!" he says, "I'm getting drunk before I drink -- the arrow
- of time must be reversing. Whee! The universe is contracting!"
-
- Then he remembers that Steven Hawking had been proved wrong about that.
- He also notices that objects and people around him have started to
- fade. Yes, faster now, everything is simply winking out of
- existence.
-
- He begins to panic. "Can anyone hear me? I don't want to be ABEND!"
-
- Gosh, is this what purgatory's like?
-
- Gecko-boy, aka Mike
