Can it be? Already?? Yep. We've reached the end of Necessary Chances and the Operation Quickline series. Sid and Lisa and company will be back with a new assignment and organization in a few months. But there's a small catch. My fiction serials will be moving to my Substack newsletter exclusively.

Given that The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was written in the 1970s, it's odd how prescient this quote seems. I want to know who these six guys are.

At least Xanax kitty hasn't taken up all of TobyWan's bed. And, yes, he's not entirely thrilled about sharing.
