Friday the 14th of October , was much like any other autumn day in the holiday town of Basingstoke.
And Alfred J Pruffock , an electronic file clerk at an insurance company, was on his way to work as usual when --- Nothing happened!
Scarcely able to believe his eyes, Alf looked down.
But one glance confirmed his suspicions.
Behind a bush, on the side of the road,there was *no* severed arm. No dismembered trunk of a man in his late fifties.
Nothing.
Not a sausage.
Alfred Pruffock reached his office in Dulls-ells Street at 9:05 a.m ....
exactly the same time as he usually got in!!!!
"Morning, Mr. Pruffock "
"Morning, Enid"
Enid, a sharp-eyed, clever young girl, who had been with the firm for only 4 weeks,couldn't help noticing the complete absence of tiny but tell-tale bloodstains on Mr. Pruffocks clothing.
Nor did she notice anything strange in Mr. Pruffocks behaviour that whole morning.
Nor the next morning.
Nor at any time before or since the entire period she worked for that firm.
"Have the new paper clips arrived, Enid?"
"Yes, they're over there, Mr. Pruffock ."
<faintly> "Oh..."
But for the lack of any untold circumstances for this secretary to notice, and the total non-involvement of Mr. Pruffock in anything illegal,the full weight of the law would insure that Alfred J Pruffock would have ended up like all who challenge the fundamental laws of our society.
In an iron coffin with spikes on the inside.Last edited by AlfredJPruffock; 14 October 2005, 11:08.Comment

One of the sales people has just presented me with strawberries and Riccadonna asti because he'd signed up $510,000 worth of work for me to do.
So, it looks like I might be busy this weekend.Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.
