The Facts in the Case of Tim S.     
   
  Describe the crowd at the bar "Jack London's." 
   
  Fool-begged, foolish-compounded, folly-fallen footlings. foison plenty 
of flickering Flibbertigibbets, fluxive flouting-stock flewed as 
flax-wenches, fleering and flap-mouthed flirt gills and flesh mongers 
full-gorged yet frustrate.  Also: pajocks and pantaloons.   
Also many insects of type Manomorium pharaonis. 
   
  They weren't that bad were they? 
   
  True. Those were pearls that were their eyes.  Also stars may be 
made from them.  The propolis of the lattice if one must admit it. 
Bee glue to Betelgeuse if they are lucky.  Otherwise orphic orts 
when one is bored and nothing else is on.  Marrowbones. 
Quodlibets boring.  Desist at once.     
   
  Describe the mood in the bar after the decedent screamed.   
   
  The crystal fretting (CF) was fracted. 
A certain ontological void was created. 
The exterior envelope of the crystal fretting was palpated to 
effect a hiatus in the lattice-work. 
   
  What effect did this have?  Was it permanant? 
   
  Dehiscence or fission de facto of course always implicated and 
a liminal porosity expected but anticipated invagination of light 
delayed and the Da of Sa and the non-place of Vorstellung 
temporarily inhibited by glissement all glockenspiel causing 
the CF to groin glutted by vacuum awaiting glissando.  Everyone was 
tense.  Sphatic. 
   
  How did the decedent die? 
   
  The decedent inserted the barrel of the Colt Model 70 semi-automatic 
pistol into his mouth.  Since the decedent was completely orthognathous, 
this action was performed with some grace. 
  The decedent than depressed the trigger of the pistol at the same time 
lowering the barrel of the pistol so that the bullet, when discharged, 
penetrated the fauces instead of his brains.  Instead of dying at once 
the decedent experienced exsanguination and died only after 17 minutes 
had expired. 
   
  What then occurred? 
   
  The decedent uttered the digraph "uh" which was held for a demisemiquaver 
with insignificant (at this time) fermata. Enuresis followed with 
subsequent engorgement of tissue.  Sphincter relaxed the bowels 
evacuated.  Matters most sanguinary ensued not at this time deemed to 
be of sufficient interest to be denumerated.  However spallation was 
noted immediately after decease but hypercharge minus baryon yields 
impossible quantum number so strangeness not calculated.  Spinthariscopes 
must be improved.  Also the exuviae of certain insects shed in 
the vehicle owned by the besanguined felodese were made sanguinolent by 
the blood gushing from decedent's wound and have been deemed of aesthetic 
interest. Also, the decedent wailed like a limpkin. 
   
  What were the contents of the stomach of the decedent?  (stomach contents) 
   
   Saturated and unsaturated aliphatic compounds with an even number 
of carbon atoms.  Palmitic, stearic, and oleic acids.  A partially 
digested jalepeno.  Additional analysis would reveal trace amounts 
of diquat.  Analysis not performed by indigenous medical personnel. 
   
  Was any "scat" (powdered cocaine) found on the person of the corpse 
when the corpse was examined by indigenous medical personnel? 
   
  No. No "scat" (powdered cocaine) was found. 
   
  List the decedents three wives. 
   
  Nancy who was fancy.  Fancy Nancy 
  Jeannie whose eyes were so greenie. 
  Sweet trembling Jennie who hands were so slow. 
Jennie the de trop. 
   
  Were any of these wives fecundated by the decedent? 
   
  Yes, one such wife was fecundated.  The wife named "Jennie" 
   
  What was the issue of this fecundation? 
   
  A monster most horrible.  With, however, a garland briefer than a girls. 
Fugnacious and a non-funambulist lacking all limbs it was fordone 
almost at birth.  A folie a deux persisted between the decedent 
and the fecundated wife and indigenous medical personnel were 
not consulted before the birth due to a mutual sense that 
they were fordone.  Afterwards the ex-fecund wife was faradized. 
To no good effect.  Still she made little eyres of her cell and 
expressed a wish to be desexed.  Faradization continued but her 
desire is not defeasible.  The inexplicable motility of the edible 
continued. 
   
  Describe the funeral rites of the decedent. 
   
  He was exenterated by a skilled mortuary technician, dighted 
by this same technician in unhabitual habiliment and then 
deflagrated. 
   
   
  Did all the instruments agree that the day of his dying was a dark, cold 
day? 
   
  No.  The sidereal day in which the decedent died had hardly begun. 
The previous day had been pluvious but little clouds were sporting in the 
welkin and the spinny stars shone seder on the little town.  Also, 
the orreries in the orthoclase spun merrily.   
   
   
  Did dolphins waft home the hapless youth blah blah blah? 
   
  No. 
   
   
  Did the decedent at any time have a SIAP (Single Integrated Action Plan)? 
   
  No. 
   
  Was the decedent born on a Wednesday and hence "full of woe?" 
   
  No, the decedent was born on a Thursday and hence should be thought 
of as having "far to go." 
   
  Have skilled exegetes analyzed the decedents literary remains? 
   
  Yes. 
  Their judgment? 
   
  Immature influence of Garcia Lorca.  Sterile staminody. 
No pnanerogam he. No diaphantine analysis required. 
   
   
  Did the decedent have any hope that if he had not killed himself he 
might have helped 92 year old Professor Charles Hartshorne 
complete his sixteen-fold analysis of divine dual transcendence 
in terms of polar contraries and arrange each element of transcendence 
in a neat table of the combinations of each polar contrary in their 
double applications or inapplications (zero cases) so that their 
logical relationships can be surveyed almost at a glance as did Joseph 
Pickle of Colorado College? 
   
  No.  None. 
   
  Did it mean anything? 
   
  It?
