It’s hot in Topeka so we recommend that you stay hydrated. Also don’t forget to grab a string cheese on the way out. We bought them in bulk and don’t want to see them expire. Hell, take two and have one for later. We also have the knock off bag juice products. Capone Solar really isn’t that bad if you don’t mind the taste of old orange and pickle juice.

Punch, kick, it’s all in the mind. Or that’s what weirdos will tell you. Then you strike them in the face and ask them if that was simply a personal construct or not. Of course they will go call the cops which is the adult version of tattling. Which is really the only reason nihilists and solopsists get away with being smug jerks in a civilized society.

Let’s look over the stack of papers on our desk. Doesn’t seem anyone has died too recently but everyone is talking about scary weather. So it must be summer and that puts us right in the mood to talk about frightening beaches where people die suddenly. No, we’re not talking about sharks or any famous movies featuring them. We have The Fog(1980).

Just as you might dismiss that we would do another manga episode. Yet here we are, in all our glory. So if we can come through, who is to say, truly, that you will never see a lookalike that could hawk you a sugary cereal product in person? You won’t but as a wise bard once sang, don’t stop believing.
