Dark Matter found
Met up with Teddy-wan Kenobi, who is my favorite publisher and adoptive parent (I was adopted too late so I didn’t get his looks).
Teddy-wan has an impinged nerve, which means he has a bad back. “I’m on a diet,” he said. “I lost 13 pounds and then gained 3. Need to lose 30 in total. (Horrible cussword.)”
“But cheese has lots of calcium, ergo it’s good for the vertebrae,” I pointed out, for I am The Rationalizer.
“Okay,” he said.
“What did the doctors say?” I asked.
“(String of unprintables.) There’s a dark mass in my lower back and no one knows what it is.”
“You mean. . .they’ve discovered Dark Matter?!”
“Yes,” he said, “in my ass.”
Physicists, take note.
Blood’s A Rover, the new novel by James Ellroy. Teddy-wan covered it in plastic. I thought, Isn’t the title a quote from A Boy And His Dog by Harlan Ellison? Nope, it’s from a poem by A.E. Housman.

Dark matter in his ass? Probably from hanging out with Jojo Binay too long. High time you got some new friends Teddy Boy. And we don’t mean Erap, Doods, Brenda and Bongbong.
