to my Chariot.
It's a Chariot 515, actually; as if you care. I mean, pretty much, a
Chariot is a Chariot. The only question is whether or not it makes your butt

whoopie about how many flopdoodles per nanodweeb their Chairiot can do, but
I'm like 99 percent of all Cyberspacers; I'm just along for the ride. I don't
do rez work; I don't do programming, I don't educate expert systems clusters,
so all my beast has to do is be good enough to let me meet girls in Full

and take me to work every day.
I run a machine shop in Yokohama; well, it looks like a machine-shop,
