The Architext Replies!

You see, I've been grubbing about for a suitable image for our upcoming anthology, and hit upon the idea of using our very first Monkey cover, which had been supplied us by our creator The Architext! Being something of a foolish lout, I had deleted that original cover, sent it on its way to cyberoblivion, where it is somewhere spinning in a black vacuum just north of Alpha Centauri with that crazy man in the Prometheus probe with his return visions of bikini-clad babes in Switzerland ... or something. Anyhow. I used my great powers of location to send out a message to our once and future thing, The Architext (who had long ago left us to conquer new worlds), and asked it about that original monkey. And lo, it replied!

I'm a low-level software goon in the finance world now. I can spin a few random capitalism-related phrases your way if you're interested, like credit default swap valuation, or photon nanotube high-viscosity therbigulator. Of course, as a socialist-communist-libertarian, I'm taking the place down from the inside, ala Homer Simpson and his nuclear panner plant. Anyway, I think I can find the monkey but it will take a few hours. How could you delete it? :[ <-- that is supposed to be a grimace

I check in on TQR every now and then. Seems to be thriving more or less. I always dig the minkies. I'll see what I can do when I get the chantsz.

Wait, did you say "book cover"???

Cheers, Archi
