"Have you ever tried to get 10 people in our galaxy into one attack all at the same time? It's impossible."

John passed a note to Fred that said, "Can we leave soon? We may be boring them, but we're boring us, too."

Fred scribbled "OK - 2 minutes," and passed it back.


A skinhead clomped into a dirty apartment, munching on a meat pie, and slammed the door. He noticed a red light flickering and instantly dropped the coke can and meat pie into a mess of dirty plates and cutlery on a counter, then lunged over a couch. He grabbed a set of headphones and put it to one ear.

"... ever tried to get 10 people in our galaxy into one attack all at the same time? It's impossible."

He flicked on a tape recorder, thinking, "If they don't say anything important, I'll erase it. I don't want to get caught being out of the apartment when I was supposed to be listening for action on the bug."
