POSTRASAL PARADIGMS

D'YOU THINK? AMONG THE RANKS OF THE UNEMPLOYED...

MAYBE TO BE SAFE, I'LL BORROW MY MOMS K.D. LANG T-SHIRT.

I'VE SENT OUT THIRTY-FIVE RESUMES AND GOTTEN ZERO CALLS. NO ONE WANTS TO HIRE AN ACCOUNTANT WHO'S BEEN OUT OF THE JOB MARKET FOR FOUR YEARS.

THINKING ABOUT ANDREW

SO NOW IT'S OVER.. BUT PERVEISELY I AM SAD For HIM. INCORRECTLY, I KNOW. OBSCENELY EVEN..

I SHOULD BE SAD. BUT FOR THE GUY MINDING HIS OWN BUSINESS, GUNNED DOWN AT HIS GORGEOUS FRONT DOOR. THE ONE WHO'S LION'S SHARE OF GOOD FORTUNE YAN OUT ALL AT ONCE, AND FOR THE OTHERS.

by Eric Orner

WHAT CAUSE A PERSON YOU OR I MIGHT'VE KNOWN, TO GO HAYWIRE IN SUCH FANTASTICALLY VIOLENT FASHION?

MAYBE IT WAS INFATUATION (WITH A FRIEND WHO MOVED TO MINNEAPOLIS) OR ITS UGLY COLLEAGUE, OBSESSION, VISITORS WHO'VE MADE UNHAPPY ACQUAINTANCE With MANY OF US...

THE ONE WAS ROYALTY, THE OTHER WASN'T. OF MAYBE NOT. ANDREW WAS ATTRACTIVE, WHICH IS A Kind of ROYALTY AMONG US (AND NOT JUST AMONG US, BY THE WAY).

9:04 abc 79

A PART OF ME, A WEAK AND STUPID PART, UNDOUBTEDLY, DIDN'T WANT IT TO FINISH THIS WAY, AN ANIMAL CORNered. I NeeDED AN EXPLANATION. OR MAYBE I JUST HOPED HE'& DISAPPEAR, NO MORE KILLINGS. AN ENDurING AND SCAPY VANISHING. WITH WHISPERED SITINGS AT CANNES AND ASCOT AND VIZCAYA.
