  I, myself have a special love for pre-loved and oddly re-purposed vehicles. Ms. Agnes is one of my favorites. And the gypsy in me can't resist the live-aboard houseboat deal. And his reference to "taking my retirement in installments" is class in my book. I also have a special love for novels named by themes, and colors are more fun than most IMO. How can a synaesthete not be taken in by a title like "The Deep Blue Goodbye". In the 70's I was an (un)licensed private investigator (supporting a young family while going to college). This meant doing just about anything not patently illegal or unethical for money. Of course, as time in that profession went on, I learned that virtually everything I was asked (and paid) to do was unethical. Characters like McGee provided color (excuse the allusion) to my image of the work I was doing. I didn't take myself too seriously really, but I occasionally got a kick out of reading or watching Sam Spade, Philip Marlowe, Travis McGee, Magnum PI (for his ridiculousness) and Jim Rockford (for his folksy humility). Our "Man behind the Complex", in fact is a bit of a Travis McGee in my book... speculatively recovering intellectual property long before it is actually lost. There are a couple of paradoxes and a few time loops required to make sense of all that but those of you who know "our man Guerin" probably understand what I'm talkin' about here! - Steve Four. ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org |

And people of a certain age?
The Girl in the Plain Brown Wrapper and Bright Orange for the Shroud are two favorites, your mentioning time loops makes me think of The Girl, the Gold Watch & Everything.
