Either I should be more deliberately confusing or the themes here actually make some manner of sense. One or the other.<br /><br />Therefore I am reluctant to say much specific for fear of spoilers.<br /><br />I would like to point out, though, that the question that occurred to g.l. indicates to me that she would probably, if she cared to try, have a very difficult time trying to convince anyone she wasn't clever. Incisive curiosity is cool.<br /><br />Indeed, there are roses on Mars -- and thus soil and thus ants, and algae and phosphorus and about a golybillion sorts of microlife without whose support we would surely die. There is taste, too, and horticulture and competitive growing contests and every kind of human passion from romance to avarice. Symbols of fertility can have a long shelf life.<br /><br />I meander. Forgive me. It's too hot to think straight here.<br /><br />Yours,<br />CBBCheeseburger Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384136287767500794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-76842256743989705242011-05-23T16:14:34.171-04:002011-05-23T16:14:34.171-04:00very dramatic ending this chapter. and then i thou...very dramatic ending this chapter. and then i thought, "wait. they have roses on ares?"gl.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11890196589573443189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-84675756878499636652011-05-23T13:01:23.444-04:002011-05-23T13:01:23.444-04:00I'm not sure what i've broken but comment ...I'm not sure what i've broken but comment notification via email seems to be busted.<br /><br />Bro: if you're reading this, for time being logging into Blogger "manually" seems to be the only way to see or moderate comments right now.<br /><br />My net access is very spotty, but I'm trying to check in when possible.<br /><br />CBB on the beachCheeseburger Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384136287767500794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-63127275225303205272011-05-21T14:54:50.262-04:002011-05-21T14:54:50.262-04:00D'oh, checking the checkbox.D'oh, checking the checkbox.SaintPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02064605142705446251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-38310932050583611782011-05-21T14:54:14.345-04:002011-05-21T14:54:14.345-04:00I never saw it coming.

I was practically giddy when their professor told them how to get rid of her. Of course, now, they'll be working not to rid themselves of her but of each other so that there's no competition for her affections. I doubt she'll be interested in either of them.<br /><br />I do foresee a possible happy ending though: They inadvertently destroy their budget so effectively that TWO people must be gotten rid of, and it's them. They realize they were fools for letting a woman come between them (bros before hos, neh?) and make fast friends again as they prepare to enter *DUN DUN DUNNNN* THE PRIVATE SECTOR!<br /><br />TRHTeddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06429915965397673079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-12905458787114635752011-05-20T10:28:43.678-04:002011-05-20T10:28:43.678-04:00Dang.

I've said it once and I'll say it again: you, sir, are a masterful creator of characters.<br /><br />Also, it's good (though disheartening) to see Marlboro waking up to the reality of the culture around him. Probably not so hard for him to imagine Air's conjectured tragedy now.<br /><br />Enjoy your time away, CBB.Sheik Yerboutinoreply@blogger.com
