I'm moving like a irritable sloth on nyquil these days, posts will
ooze out as my metabolism shifts from coma to near-sentience.

Stories of tortures
Used by debauchers
Lurid, licentious, and vile
Make me smile
Novels that pander
To my taste for candor
Give me a pleasure sublime
Let's face it, I love slime

Not quite, so here's the assignment for all you young and willing
students -- explain to us all as regards the significance of "The
world is all the case there is" and how it applies to "V." Bonus
points for anyone sniffing out extensions on this riff in GR or AtD. I
expect your assignments to be in before the cock crows on All Saints
Day, preferably printed in pencil on hexagonal grid paper.

It's not as if there's someone chomping at the bit for Chapter 10, is
it?
I'll be here at the Castaway Inn through Samhain, don't forget to tip
your waitresses. The Portobello Gardenburgers aren't bad, just so long
as you understand that they taste nothing like meat and by the way --
vote yes on Prop 19 'cause we all could use a good laugh.
We'll be back with Vera Lynn accompanied on the piano by Asia Carrera
in just a minute, but first, this public service message:
As far as the vapor business goes, then, hydrazine is
like gasoline. You don't stick your head inside a gas
tank so you can inhale its delightful aroma; nor do you
light up your favorite weed where there are gasoline
fumes around. In fact if you do any smoking at all
around either gasoline or hydrazine, we guarantee
you'll be enjoying it less.
