Mr Philosopher: Perhaps Logic's truth tables are the only way to sort this mess out.

If not, try Sartre: Reality comes with an eraser.

Reality comes with an eraser?!

Someone must have already eaten mine cuz that's the first *I* have heard of it.

They could, of course, both be real, if one accepts the theory of quantum entanglement and apply it to macro-biological systems. Imagine it like this....

At the moment of demise, the soul of El B was rent asunder by opposing forces into two pieces. What should have happend was that the dark matter would have headed down to old Nick, and the light matter upstairs to somewhere more spiritual. But the dark matter had, in fact, consumed the light matter in such a complete and overwhelming manner that El B's soul became a singularity. Upon the split, quantum entanglement laws meant that each half of this unholy character was a copy of the other and would behave in the same way. One half went upstairs and was immediately rejected for obvious reasons. The other headed downwards where it was also rejected as being too rude and obnoxious even for he rancid burning pits of hell. So, spat back onto the physical soil of Earth, our protagonist is now left to drag himself around in limbo... as two perpetually entangled half-wits.

damn it Kim, you beat me to it! i was going to build a strip with the fake fake El b with googly eyes saying: "it's a larf, innit? *HAR HAR HAR!*"

Charlie said...

I agree, McCrumble. *obnoxious snoring*

Lady G said...

Wait...
If he was a half wit to start with....
Wouldn't that make him two quarter wits now?

Dr McCrumble - you should turn that into a script. Maybe even for a Star Trek episode!

Sarah - go for it. Don't let my scripts stand in the way of your creative ideas. Blunt Cogs can easily stand parallel stories and ideas.
