ATD: cover: "seal"

"Zoyd thought his best bet might be to find an RV park someplace and try to 
blend in. He reserved a space a few miles out of town up Seventh River under 
a fake name, praying nobody was listening in on this phone. Then, gingerly, 
proceeded in the cedar-shake eyesore to Bodhi Dharma Pizza, which he could 
hear tonight before he saw it. All the occupants of the place were chanting, 
something that, with vibes of trouble to come, he recognized — not the 
words, which were in Tibetan, but the tune, with its bone-stirring bass, to 
a powerful and secret spell against invaders and oppressors, heard in 
particular a bit later in the year at harvest time, when CAMP helicopters 
gathered in the sky and North California, like other U.S. pot-growing areas, 
once again rejoined, operationally speaking, the third world."

"Those Himalayas!" Takeshi reminisced. "Right at the worst part, that sudden 
blizzard sweeping in —"
"— and we'd lost our way — everything white! Couldn't find the pass! The 
seconds were — ticking down!"
"Your wristwatch — with the turquoise numbers — only thing in the storm 
anybody can see! The bomber is already back in Geneva — with a perfect 
alibi! Suddenly — who do we run into, in that little shack — at the edge of 
infinity . . . literally!"
"Kutsushita-san!" Both men collapsed in laughter. "Everybody thought he'd 
drunk himself to death —"
"Instead he'd gone off to Tibet — to save his soul!"
