[edit] Chapter Ω - Mass Confusion

New job: fix Mr. Gluck's hazy TV, PDQ! -Sun Tzu

Carlos fell asleep on his keyboard. When he awoke, he looked at the words his head had spelt out on the screen during his slumber -

"On the nature of toads; in general, they are terrestrial animals, rarely entering water, unlike their cousins the frogs. This was Carlo's recollection, when he paused to regard a particularly fat specimen of amphibian that was crouched, in warlike posture, on his knee, as he swam through the dissipating fogs of unconsciousness, back into the hazy mist that qualified as his waking state of mind these days."

It didn't seem to make any sense. Carlos selected the text, and hit 'delete'. He was glad it was gone.

(Big James looked up briefly from his manuscript. Creativity has its own meaning. He had always been fascinated by the likes of David Bowie, an artist in many ways as well as a musician. Jim recalled how Bowie had described how he had written a few of his songs from the seventies. He took random words and sentences and clauses and cut them up into little bits of paper and then mixed them up and drew out words in any sequence. The meaning was random but the effect was often inspired. Jim did not know where this section would relate to the whole, but he marked it off and was quite delighted with it, in its self-contained glory).
