Love Means Never Having to Cross the Floor
 The phone rang. It was Alice.
ALICE: Hey idiot, turn on the CBC. Belinda Stronach is talking about the Conservatives and Peter MacKay.
BLAMB: That's last week's news.
ALICE: Just turn it on! Quick!
I flipped on the tv . . .
[ tv ]
REPORTER: Can you tell us how you came to your decision to cross the floor?
BELINDA: Well, I remembered seeing this graphic once, and it reminded me that in both politics and matters of the heart, all loyalty is unrequited. Suddenly, the path was clear.
[ /tv ]
 ALICE: It's your stupid chart again!
BLAMB: Listen, you can't start blaming everything that happens in the world on me, just because people choose to use that graphic.
ALICE: Don't you think you should speak out against the chart? Before someone really gets hurt?
BLAMB: Nobody's gonna get hurt. Hey, I made the C-List on Blogebrity!
ALICE: Blogebr-whu? What kind of name is that? Blogebrity? That's terrible.
BLAMB: I made the C-List!
ALICE: And?
BLAMB:Uh. That's it.
ALICE: Actually, a blog tabloid is more appropriate than some of the other activities people have tried, like the Blogshares. Blogging is all about personalityy and ego, not "shares" or economics.
BLAMB: Hey, I saw Quon'dar on the street the other day, what's he doing back in town?
ALICE: Quon'dar? He left.
BLAMB: I tried talking to him, but he got away.
ALICE: Are you sure it was him?
BLAMB: I recognized the shape of his dorsal fin.
Alice was silent. A minute passed.
BLAMB: You still there?
ALCIE: I'll talk to you later.
She hung up.
