Mark Kohut sez:
the false "history" that spy novels, boys' adventure
novels, etc.assume/create in readers..
For values of "etc." including history books and
textbooks, seminars and symposia. . . .
"Local News and Sports!!!":
Production staff murmered into walkie-talkies,
technicians could be seen through the fateful
window, waving light meters and checking
soundlevels outside as Zoyd, breathing steady,
silently repeated a mantra that Van Meter,
claiming that it'd cost him $100, had toward
the end of his yoga phase last year hustled
Zoyd into buying for a twenty that Zoyd hadn't
really enjoyed discretionary use of. At last all
was set. Van Meter flashed Mr. Spock's Vulcan
hand salute. "Ready when you are, Z Dubya!"
Zoyd eyeballed himself in the mirror behind the
bar, gave his hair a shake, turned, poised, then
screaming ran empty-minded at the window and
went crashing through. He knew the instant he
hit that something was funny. There was hardly
any impact, and it all felt and sounded different,
no spring or resonance, no volume, only a sort
of fine, dulled splintering.
