231. Fritz was beside himself. Why hadn't Ken taken Ben up in one of those aircraft? He had planned it so well, the tampering with the fuel tanks, the loosening of the wing struts, the severed control cables. Damn that interfering hussy Sheila and her irresistable body. Was Ken so smitten by her curves, long legs, amble breasts and her mind to be so there to take him to Bangor's Airport. He'd do them all in.......yes in one felled swoop.
The giant aircraft shuddered its way down the runway but halfway into its run the wings fell off and it skidded to a tentative halt, still wobbling from side to side, the stewardess pulling the emergency door and the plastic slide popped out and the passengers slid down, thankfull the plane never got to take off. Ken was beside himself with frustration. How could I have been so stupid? To think that bitch Sheila talked me into all this. Now I have to slink into obscurity again.
Again. Like all this had happened before and he promised himself he would never try this stunt again just to get a bit of insurance money. There HAS to be a better way to make a living he thought morosely.
Lets see, some plastic surgery, fake documents, resurface in Peru.
Meanwhile Fritz was thinking about the board room meeting with Sheila, all the political infighting, that damn CEO getting his rocks off with the latest pretty boy toy, yes, things were going to get rough in this one he feared.
oops, wrong chapter.

35. And the snake spoke to her and made a pretty good sounding argument that the taboo against apples was greatly overblown and unjustified. She figured that it sounded pretty good and she ought to try it out on him. He, being somewhat naive, took a bite of the apple with little thought of consequences. Oh, what mischief would follow!

This, the equivalent of 1. e4!

40. Animals? Animals! What a cool notion, thought God. Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My! The possibilities for great literature are endless the divine spirit realized. Of course great literature would have to wait for the invention of papyrus and cerebral function developed at the level of thinking. That would take at least 300 million years, also a concept that would require milennia to develop.
