If quarantining is in fact an extreme and inhumane solution to the AIDS
problem, then I'm sure that you could discredit the idea with some simple
arguments. Explain why it is extreme...how it would violate human rights,
maybe. Explain why these excesses would far outweigh any slowdown in AIDS that
might result from such a quarantine. 

All I'm saying is that I believe there is no idea that is so dangerous
it can't even be talked about. To deny this would be to deny one's faith
in the democratic process and the value of the "free marketplace of ideas."

Rosalea should have known better than to underestimate Myer Mortifee.  The last
time she'd had him in her clutches, he'd constructed a CB transmitter using
transistors made from his own vomit.  But this time he wouldn't escape her so
easily.

She heard the footsteps of Jed, her servant, arriving with the glass of
champagne she had ordered to celebrate Mortifee's final capture.  The door
behind her opened.  "Just put it on the table, Jed," she said, turning.  Then
she realized she did not face Jed, but instead a pistol in the hand of Myer
Mortifee himself.

"Don't move, Miss Cepela," he said.  He dropped the silver tray he held onto
the floor, spilling the glass of champagne.

"How did you escape this time, Mr. Mortifee?" she asked.

"Let's just say that your guards didn't inspect my digestive tract as
thoroughly as they could have," he sneered.  "Now, give me one good reason why
I shouldn't kill you right now."

"I'll give you two," she murmured breathily.  She moved her hand slowly to the
neckline of her silver jumpsuit and pulled the zipper down to her waist.  She
shrugged the suit off her shoulders, baring her full breasts.

Myer looked at her in disgust.  "That kind of cheap floozie act won't work on
me, Cepela.  I can get all I need from your friend Jed."

Damn fruits, Rosalea thought as Myer leveled the pistol at her head and pulled
the trigger.

Hemant stared across the table into the eyes of his opponent.  God, he hated
playing against women.  Men he could face on equal terms.  But his chivalrous
upbringing always gave female opponents an advantage.

Vedula stared back at him, and smiled, enjoying his discomfiture.  She leaned
forward slightly, and his eyes turned reluctantly away from her inviting
cleavage.  Bitch, he thought.  She sat back, arranging the ermine coat around
her shoulders.

"So are you going to move, or not?" he growled.  As soon as he said it he knew
it was a mistake.  His temper was going, which was just what she wanted.  She
knew she had him anyway.  She was just prolonging the agony.

"Five-minute limit is not up," Kilduff said.  He stood as the impartial judge. 
Like Vedula didn't have him under her thumb.  She was like a cat, toying with
her prey before snapping its spine.

Vedula looked down at the board before her, seeming to consider a number of
moves.  As if there were more than one.  "A-5," she said.

Hell.  "Yeah, you sunk my fuckin' battleship, bitch."  He spat across the table
at her, and the last thing he felt was Kilduff's blackjack on the back of his
skull.

[...etc...]

I decided I was going to get organized.  I was fed up with having to search
the entire flat just to find the telephone bill.

I bought a stack of three A4 filing trays.  They are labelled "READ ME",
"DEAL WITH ME", and "FILE ME".

Bits of paper arrive by post, I read them, then I leave them lying around
somewhere.  Within a day or so they'd migrate to the top tray.  (I'm not sure
exactly how this bit works, but I think it may involve Helen.)

When bits of paper become 'urgent' in some sense, I find them by looking in
"READ ME".  I then re-read them, decide they're not *that* urgent, and put
them in "DEAL WITH ME".

Unfortunately, "DEAL WITH ME" is now sufficiently full that I've had to start
moving stuff straight to the final stage, "FILE ME".  In a few months "FILE
ME" will be full and I'll have to decide what to do next.  Probably buy
another tray.

This morning Mantis received a gorgeous office equipment supplies catalogue. 
Over a centimetre thick.  I love that stuff.  Apparently staplers are now
called "stapling machines".  The new catalogue has eight pages devoted to
stapling machines.  Plus all kinds of shiny folders for putting bits of paper
in, and lots and lots of hi-tech-looking disposable pens and pencils.

My favourite item is the Post-It Note roll dispenser.  You pull out and tear
off as much Post-It note as you like, like a toilet roll.  They also have
little rainbow-coloured Post-It flags for sticking to pages of books to mark
your place.
