“I should’ve suspected trouble when the coffee failed to arrive.”
(Excerpt from the novel DUNE.) Paul had one last glimpse of Idaho standing against a swarm of Harkonnen uniforms—his jerking, controlled staggers, the black goat hair with a red blossom of death in it. Then the door was closed and there came a snick as Kynes threw the bolts. “I appear to’ve decided,” Kynes said. “Someone detected your machinery before it was shut down,” Paul said. He pulled his mother away from the door, met the despair in her eyes. “I should’ve suspected trouble when the coffee failed to arrive,” Kynes said. “You’ve a bolt hole out of here,” Paul said. “Shall we use it?” Kynes took a deep breath, said: “This door should hold for at least twenty minutes against all but a lasgun.” “They’ll not use a lasgun for fear we’ve shields on this side,” Paul said.

Late reply, and you might have discovered this by now, but you can get soft wrap without the awkward breaks by using `:set wrap linebreak nolist`. Movement keys work as you'd expect when prefaced with `g` (or you can use a modifier key via vimrc). See vimcasts.org/episodes/sof... for details.

Had to walk past the old building after reading the story. Sad days. Heart goes out to everyone there. 💔
Street level photo looking up the south side of what was once the LA Times office building in Downtown Los Angeles on 2nd Street. The surfaces seem bedraggled, and the windows at pedestrian level where newspaper spreads and historical photos once appeared are dusty and empty.

Lichtenstein was the monster. ;)
Pop-art, Lichtenstein-esque rendition of Boris Karloff as the character commonly yet mistakenly referred to as Frankenstein, in the 1931 movie of that name.
