LIFE EXPLAINED, PART 151

Fiction's easy, a snap. You just make stuff up, try to be a little plausible, add some interesting characters, give them something cool to do, present them with a challenge or two, maybe add a little danger and bingo, you've got a real good story. It's life that's bizarre as can be. There's just no telling what the hell's going to happen one minute to the next, and just maybe it's your ass all of a sudden in a sling. Which is probably why we love our stories so much, the much safer and better deal by far.
