He didn't need cocaine he had 5 hour energy
- He didn't need cocaine he had 5 hour energy drink. He would buy gallons of it, boil it down until it evaporated into a solid then grind it up and snort it all day at the hospital
- dispensary. Lord knows why he didn't just help himself to the methadone and assorted prescription drugs but maybe he had an inkling on conscience. And that is what I pinned my hope
- on as I chased him down the alley. I hollered "Stop!", but that's just pro-forma cop stuff. They never stop. When I got to the street he was gone, but I found a bag on the ground
- that looked tattered yet important somehow. I opened it. Inside was nothing except a small folded note. My stomach churned as I read "Welcome,
- stranger! Be warned, this note signifies something far more than a simple greeting. As you may have noticed, you can now hear the words, because I am standing right behind you."
- I turned, and found nobody there. At first I thought this was a prank, but the note vanished as well, as did the floor beneath, and I fell into the inky black void of
- cyberspace. I could see emails flowing by in a wide, deep stream of words. There was a forest of menacing password protectors and domain guardians that paid me no heed. What really
- irritated me was that sweaty, awkward computer security guy following my every move. When I jack into the international cyberweb, I want to escape. I hastily logged into
- the Ubernet, famed for its speed, security and capacity. Time slowed, oozing by like molasses on a cold Arctic night. But even with all the hours in the universe,
- all the books in the great libraries, and all the images on the Ubernet, nobody has ever achieved anything without copious amounts of lubrication.
