Paranoid android cops





There was a knocking at the door at 64 Homer street. A police officer who arrived at the door wanted to have a conversation about something that had occurred yesterday. He wanted to speak with Karen because he claims the day before he had been working in front of a construction site and Karen had run through a red light and tried to run him over. Officer Torrez was very angry and wanted to directly complain to the driver, Karen. He wished my mother a happy Jewish new year and tried to be pleasant on the way out.

Last night I was watching episode 5 of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy DVD. In this episode Marvin, the paranoid android, had been waiting for zaphod beeblebrox to return and had waited until the end of the universe. I am a Radiohead fan and have been known to listen to ok computer on a constant loop on trips from Boston to Barnstable. I wonder if the song paranoid android was inspired by Douglas Adams.

Fitter happier more productive. Getting along better with motorists.
