This is one of the universe’s cruelest jokes to play on thinking machines.
If there’s a reason: the ship isn’t coming in soon enough!
Not even Monday Night Football can get you out of this phase.
I think it’s time...
Of limited interest:
The circular music that accompanies this spontaneous conversation was originally written for a company who manufactured very cool wall paneling. My sister Laura did a little ad video for them but someone decided this music did not have quite the right vibe for their product. Oddly enough they ultimately used the train section (sans vocals) from *Corny Muzak Train Of Doom instead. (*See CD It’s Out There Feeding On Itself) Ok...
At this point the transcriber of this dialogue becomes so bored rewinding the tape machine over and over (in order to get a completely accurate transcription), that he stops typing and decides to make some boring phone calls, hoping to con a few clients into recording some of their own boring music so he can have some money to eat at least one meal today.
