••Unique Features
• Ultra high quality, plug-in, noise cancelling boom microphone included with Autocoms noise cancelling headset • Does an incredible job of picking up your speech while rejecting the maximum amount of undesirable ambient helmet noise. The precision tuned ports at both front and rear of the ultra compact microphone/s, ensure that the surrounding noise effects the diaphragm equally from both sides and effectively cancels itself out (anti-phasing), whereas the users speech is directed mainly into just the one side, producing a superior speech signal in relation to a minimal noise pick up, and this design works far better than any other type of microphone used in a noisy environment.
• Independent tuned active noise reduction filters with speech boost Tuned active filter system • Work together with the noise cancelling microphones to ensure even less noise is amplified through the system or speakers (typically rejecting 99% noise at 70mph and 95% at 100mph), while also boosting speech for optimum high speed clarity and use up to 180mph.
• Voice activation (VOX) • Reliably turns the microphone/s 100% off while not speaking to ensure that ZERO noise is amplified through the speakers. This not only reduces riding fatigue but also means that all other audio such as bike-to-bike, GPS, phone and stereo music etc are completely free from any additional amplified noise.
• Logical, mixing and control with up to 6 Aux connections • For; bike-to-bike, stereo GPS, stereo phone, stereo music, etc. 4 Aux connections plus optional wireless Bluetooth interfaces (for a total of 6) and a range of optional leads, lets you customise your system to suit your needs, as and when you want. For more information please see the section below "Intelligent Audio, Wireless & Power Control".
• Optional single internal stereo Bluetooth wireless interface • For wireless stereo phone/GPS/music connections.
• Side-tone • Gives you the benefit of letting you hear your own voice clearly which helps you to naturally speak at the correct level according to varying helmet noise conditions, and this avoids unnecessary shouting that non-side-tone products normally suffer. Side-tone also provides you with important audio confirmation of correct VOX set-up and use, which improves rider to passenger communications as well as hands free voice activated bike-to-bike radio use. What you hear you know they will be hearing. Without side tone you simply cannot know this.
• Full duplex • Allows both rider and passenger to speak naturally and freely and at the same time, either to each other or while on the phone. With full duplex there is no need to wait for a break, or "over!" Important local information can be communicated instantly and effortlessly at all times, e.g., "watch out for that truck" etc., even while using any other inputs. Important rider-to- passenger communications are never interrupted or lost while using any other features.
• Independent rider and passenger master volume controls • Lets you manage the sound levels independently to each headset, making it ideal for use with or without earplugs or any combination. Each control is colour coded for easy identification at a glance.
• Independent high quality stereo amplifiers • Provides high quality stereo reproduction to each stereo headset.
• High power, super slim, stereo speakers • Ergonomically designed for maximum comfort, high quality speakers deliver all the sound you need for use with or without earplugs.
• High quality, robust, water resistant headset lead and connectors • Designed to quick release in an emergency, with large orientation markings to ease alignment, even with gloves on.
• 12 months manufacturers warranty • With options to extend the manufacturers warranty to two or three years, for a small addition cost when you register your new product details directly to the UK factory using the reply form on the back of the instruction manuals or via email within 14 days of the original purchase date.
*Some phones may require a personal hands free adaptor.
Intelligent Audio, Wireless & Powe
• Aux 1 - Intelligent Audio Input - designed for Bike-to-Bike •
Both rider and passenger can use an optional bike-to-bike radio connected to the hub, activated via the I-VOX system, providing easy and safe hands free use without losing the rider to passenger communications or any other functions. If you bike power your hub you can also bike power recommended bike-to-bike radios. Take advantage of the optional handlebar remote control to disable the VOX transmit mode providing privacy for rider-to-passenger communications, and then transmit bike-to-bike messages at any time by either pressing the press-to-talk (PTT) button, or toggle back to the normal VOX transmit mode. When the phone is in use and disables the VOX transmit function, the remote control PTT button lets you over-ride this so that you can transmit to other bikes even when on the phone. Incoming bike to bike audio on Aux 1 on either hub automatically reduces the stereo music level on both hubs Aux 4 to 50% to improve speech clarity.
• Aux 2 - Intelligent Audio Input - designed for Stereo GPS •
A GPS can be connected to the hub using an optional interface lead to suit, or if your GPS unit transmits Bluetooth, by using the optional integral stereo Bluetooth wireless interface. Incoming GPS audio on Aux 2 automatically reduces the stereo music on Aux 4 by 50% for improved GPS clarity. Note; you can use some phones via some GPS units, but in most cases you lose the important GPS audio and safety camera warnings while using the phone through a GPS. This is why we provide separate GPS stereo connectivity and separate phone connectivity to manage this better for you.
• Aux 3 - Intelligent Audio Input - designed for Stereo Phone •
Phones can be connected to the hub using the standard lead* supplied, or via the optional stereo Bluetooth interfaces, without losing the rider-to-passenger communications. You can use some phones via some GPS units but see the note in Aux 2 above. Incoming phone audio on Aux 3 automatically reduces the stereo music on Aux 4 by 100% and bike to bike/GPS audio by 50% to improve phone conversation. The VOX transmit mode for bike-to-bike is disabled so that your phone conversations are not broadcast out to other bikes.
• Aux 4 - Intelligent Audio Input - designed for Stereo Music •
Rider and passenger speech automatically reduce the stereo music on Aux 4 to 50%. It doesn’t cut completely just in case you like to sing along. Audio from Aux 1 and 2 also reduces the stereo music by 50%to improve audio quality, while incoming audio on Aux 3 fully cuts the stereo music for improved phone conversations.
• Aux 5 and 6 - Optional Single or Twin Stereo Bluetooth Module/s •
Each of the stereo Bluetooth modules lets you connect wirelessly to one or two Bluetooth devices, so long as one is using hands free profile (such as a mobile phone or GPS, etc) and the other uses advanced audio profile (A2DP, such as stereo devices, mp3 players, etc). The twin Bluetooth module lets you connect to between 1 and 4 Bluetooth devices. These internal modules simply plug inside the hub and pairing is easy and reliable, and once done automatic each time you use the system. Incoming audio on Aux 5/6 can be set to have the same effects as incoming audio would on Aux 2 or 3.
• Intelligent Power Control •
Perfectly designed for portable battery use using 3 AA batteries (not included) or optionally bike powered for mile after mile of fuss free use. Either way you simply get on, plug-in and ride. The system automatically turns on and off via the headsets (when used portable) or via the bikes ignition (when bike powered). Built-in noise suppression helps to prevent any electrical noise from the bike entering the system. Thermal overload and reverse polarity protection help to protect your investment and let you enjoy a trouble free long life experience.
• Intelligent VOX with Ultra High Quality Rider and Passenger Headsets •
When either person speaks, the VOX system automatically turns on the microphones, reduces the stereo music, and transmits the bike-to-bike radio, for safer hands free use. When you stop speaking the microphone automatically turns off and the music gently glides back to its normal level. High quality, robust, water resistant, connectors and leads are custom designed for easy, safe and comfortable use and quick release in an emergency. Built to last but also easy to service or replace. Optional neat on-bike rubber socket holders with water resistant dust caps provide that professional finishing touch.
*some phones may require a headset adaptor to suit the standard phone lead 2.5mm plug (available from Autocom and most phone shops)
For most of the time your Autocom Kit L-1 is going to be perfect used as a portable, but for those longer trips, why not bike power it!

HID LIGHTS:- Fitting HID lights to you motorbike or car greatly increases your visibility during the day as much as it allows you to see better at night. HID lights for motorcycles draw less power than your original bulbs so for example a 55 Watt HID light replacing the standard 55 Watt filament bulb with only draw 35 Watts from your alternator making you alternator work less. On top of this Motorbike HID lights are 300% brighter than normal lights. Here at www.motorbikeadventures.co.uk we use 6000 Kelvin bulbs with an array of fitments including but not limited to:- H1, H3, H7, and H11.
Motorcycle HID lights come in two parts the bulb and the ballast with starter. The bulbs are easy to fit and we have yet to find a bike that we have not been able to fit the kits too! The normal lighting systems of motorbikes is shockingly poor and HID lights add a considerable visual presence to your bike! We have found that HID’s it greatly reduce car drivers pulling out on you on those all too often lane changes where they appear not to have even noticed your there! Bulbs last longer as there is no filament to break and changing both Dip beam and Main is recommended as the HID’s are so good it tends to render your normal Main beam useless! Installation time for a main and dip beam is 1 and half hours approx!
INTERCOMS:- Autocom Intercoms for motorbikes are a great way of communicating and listening to information you need on the move without taking your hands from the handlebars! Our intercom systems allow you to automatically answer your phone, listen to directions from your Garmin Zumo GPS and play your favourite album from your music collection with the need to take your hands from the handlebars. If you carry a pillion the system allows for you to have two way communications with your pillion and for your pillion to have automatic selection and use of their own mobile phone and music!
Best fitted by a professional this system can give you many years of great riding and once you have used one we don’t believe your ever look back. We find most people have problems when inexperienced people try to fit systems like this without the knowledge and experience to know how to set the system up and what elements to use together. Wired intercom system can currently perform multiple task simultaneously which cannot be said for Bluetooth units. In addition to multi tasking the autocom units do not need recharging as they work direct from the motorbikes electrical system and are free from the need to carry fragile charging units. A correctly setup Autocom system will allow the rider to use the system as well off road as on road. The Autocom systems we supply and fit have been used on expeditions round the globe. Often power is not available in remote places and often when power is available people for get to charge their headsets or have other items needing charging so forget the intercom system.
PANNIERS:-We do claim to be experts when it comes to HID Lights, Autocom systems and kitting out a motorbike for local or world travel. Panniers are one of the most important items to consider when considering what panniers to buy. We understand most people have a budget, and need to make their resources’ last however many expensive mistakes have been made because the wrong pannier system has been selected and then a new system had to be purchased and if the this has cost the extra money that would have been used to buy a decent pannier system in the first place. Metal Mule panniers have been tested round the globe, not just by ourselves but by many professional originations. Strength, waterproof, durability and design our key to great pannier system.
Metal Mule panniers offer the best in the areas we have mentioned and more. Whilst other pannier systems leak, pressurise when going over altitude, fold up on small impacts and fall to pieces with continued use our pannier keep on going. It’s an interesting concept that serious travels and expeditions companies use Metal Mules for their own bikes! This is for one reason only! Because they work well in all conditions and in all weathers.

I've heard no mention on television of today's anniversary of the assassination of President Kennedy twenty-nine years ago, but I spent the better part of today trying to dig up my 1988 commemorative issue of LIFE in order to photograph it and put down a few thoughts.
I was a little less than two weeks from turning eight years old when his murder occurred. I was in Sister Mary Pancratia's third-grade class when the announcement came over the intercom. I recall telling someone at the time that I was going to go home and cry my eyes out.
I didn't.
I did, of course, remain glued to the television for the next three days and while I surely had no real awareness of world events at the time, I absorbed a great deal that weekend. And I believe strongly that it was a major contributor to the person I've since become.
I've read and watched a great deal about Kennedy in my lifetime. I'm by no means a scholar with regard to his personal or political lives, but I think I've learned enough about him to be able to have established an opinion of him as a leader.
Unlike the current president, I believe he acted in the best interest of the country and in the best interest of the world. Unlike the current president, he took the concept of public service seriously.
And while so many of his critics like to point to his philandering as a matter of bringing him down in stature, his actions in the Oval Office gained him a stature in the world's opinion that I think no other U.S. president has seen since. And all the while, he was a walking disaster of a specimen, requiring what was probably constant medication (from Taylor Marsh):
• Anesthetic procaine, for his Addison’s disease
• Cytomel, for thyroid deficiency
• Lomitil
• Metamucil, now there’s a commercial for you
• Paregoric
• Phenobarbitol
• Trasentine, to control his colitic diarrhea
• Testosterone, to increase his energy and boost his weight after bouts of colitis
• Penicillin, for urinary tract flare ups
• Fluorinef, to increase his salt absorption due to Addison’s
• Cortisone
• Tuinal, for insomnia – a side effect of the cortisone
• Antihistamines, for an array of allergies
• Codeine
• Steroids… Oh, and Vitamin C and calcium
In less than five years, Martin Luther King, Jr. would be murdered, as would Kennedy's brother Bobby. My mother told me one time that she thought Bobby would have been a better president than John. I'd never thought my mother was all that politically aware at the time she said that (or since), but I believe she was right.
I believe, too, that the Democratic party began taking a serious dive south after 1968, as did the politics of this country. While I'd be hesitant to call JFK the best president we've ever had (although Mr. Rectenwald, my sophomore history teacher thought he was), it simply boggles the mind that our country has sunk to the depths that it has in the last twenty-something years with regard to the leaders we have chosen.
I seriously can't think of one thing that the current president has done for the betterment of this country or its people. Not one.
And so, it is more than nostalgia that drove me to shoot and post this. It's the mourning of ideals that we decided to chuck as a nation since 1968; it's the belief that we'd be a much different — and better — nation had Lee Harvey Oswald not become part of our historical narrative.
From the speech he was en route to deliver on 22 November 1963:
It should be clear by now that a nation can be no stronger abroad than she is at home. Only an America which practices what it preaches about equal rights and social justice will be respected by those whose choice affects our future. Only an America which has fully educated its citizens is fully capable of tackling the complex problems and perceiving the hidden dangers of the world in which we live. And only an America which is growing and prospering economically can sustain the worldwide defenses of freedom, while demonstrating to all concerned the opportunities of our system and society.
[...]
But now we have the military, the scientific, and the economic strength to do whatever must be done for the preservation and promotion of freedom.
That strength will never be used in pursuit of aggressive ambitions—it will always be used in pursuit of peace. It will never be used to promote provocations—it will always be used to promote the peaceful settlement of disputes.
We in this country, in this generation, are—by destiny rather than choice—the watchmen on the walls of world freedom. We ask, therefore, that we may be worthy of our power and responsibility, that we may exercise our strength with wisdom and restraint, and that we may achieve in our time and for all time the ancient vision of "peace on earth, good will toward men." That must always be our goal, and the righteousness of our cause must always underlie our strength.

Frank Lloyd Wright's Usonian-designed Duncan House at Polymath Park near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. You're looking at an intercom system circa 1958.
(words and pic courtesy of dan brown, chicago)
I got a nice little visit from someone today.
I hear a knocking at the door at about 3:00 pm today.
I wasn't expecting any visitors today. Hmmm, odd. I
open the door. There are four men standing on the
kitchen porch of my apartment.
Man with clipboard:"Hi. We're from Chicago building
inspection. Did you recently have an intercom
installed here?"
Me: "yes."
Man with clipboard:"By this man?" Guy with a baseball
hat looks at me.
Me: "I don't know. I didn't see them when they put it
in."
Big fat well dressed man: "May we come in?"
Me: "Sure."
In they all come and they look at the new intercom for
a second. Then sort of shuffle and mumble. The fat guy
looks at my microwave and says "What is that?"
They all stare at the object.
This is the object.
[link to pic above]
Pretty fake looking, eh?
This is what's left of my Halloween costume from last
year. I have stuff like this all over my apartment. I
craft, ok? It's halloween time after all. If they had
looked in my fridge they would have found a severed
arm. There is a severed head in the freezer. But I
digress.
"Ok, we're not really building inspectors." Out come
the guns.
Great. And what am I wearing? Unshowered and sporting
my grey zip-up hoodie - Unabomber style.
Naturally I ask for ID. This is the first thing that
pops into my head. Not "It's not a bomb", not "What's
going on here" but "Do you have ID." I see badges. Ok.
This is for real.
Long story short they explain that they are the FBI
Joint Terrorism Task Force and tell me that they guy
who reported me was Baseball hat guy! This is the same
guy who, incidentally, stole my ladder! This
idiot was left alone in my kitchen for five
hours - at any time he could have examined this toy and
seen that it was nothing, but no - HE calls the FB
fricking I.
They start asking questions; who I am, how long I
lived here, where I work. I explain it's simply a
costume, I never wore it out in public, only a gag
made of broom handles and dvd boxes. They start taking
pictures, all very friendly now. I'm still farking
FREAKED OUT but we're laughing and I'm showing them
the blinking light on it and explaining that they can
actually TAKE the stupid thing if they want to. I tell
them to please explain to my new landlord that I am
NOT in fact a terrorist and that I really want to
cooperate because I don't want anymore "surprise"
visits and is there anything I can do to follow up.
That sort of thing.
I put the "bomb" in a paper pag and they went on their
merry way.
Whew.
So how's your day going?

The precision tuned ports at both front and rear of the ultra compact microphone/s, ensure that the surrounding noise effects the diaphragm equally from both sides and effectively cancels itself out (anti-phasing), whereas the users speech is directed mainly into just the one side, producing a superior speech signal in relation to a minimal noise pick up, and this design works far better than any other type of microphone used in a noisy environment.
• Independent tuned active noise reduction filters with speech boost Tuned active filter system • Work together with the noise cancelling microphones to ensure even less noise is amplified through the system or speakers (typically rejecting 99% noise at 70mph and 95% at 100mph), while also boosting speech for optimum high speed clarity and use up to 180mph.
• Voice activation (VOX) • Reliably turns the microphone/s 100% off while not speaking to ensure that ZERO noise is amplified through the speakers. This not only reduces riding fatigue but also means that all other audio such as bike-to-bike, GPS, phone and stereo music etc are completely free from any additional amplified noise.
• Logical, mixing and control with up to 6 Aux connections • For; bike-to-bike, stereo GPS, stereo phone, stereo music, etc. 4 Aux connections plus optional wireless Bluetooth interfaces (for a total of 6) and a range of optional leads, lets you customise your system to suit your needs, as and when you want. For more information please see the section below "Intelligent Audio, Wireless & Power Control".
• Optional single internal stereo Bluetooth wireless interface • For wireless stereo phone/GPS/music connections.
• Side-tone • Gives you the benefit of letting you hear your own voice clearly which helps you to naturally speak at the correct level according to varying helmet noise conditions, and this avoids unnecessary shouting that non-side-tone products normally suffer. Side-tone also provides you with important audio confirmation of correct VOX set-up and use, which improves rider to passenger communications as well as hands free voice activated bike-to-bike radio use. What you hear you know they will be hearing. Without side tone you simply cannot know this.
• Full duplex • Allows both rider and passenger to speak naturally and freely and at the same time, either to each other or while on the phone. With full duplex there is no need to wait for a break, or "over!" Important local information can be communicated instantly and effortlessly at all times, e.g., "watch out for that truck" etc., even while using any other inputs. Important rider-to- passenger communications are never interrupted or lost while using any other features.
• Independent rider and passenger master volume controls • Lets you manage the sound levels independently to each headset, making it ideal for use with or without earplugs or any combination. Each control is colour coded for easy identification at a glance.
• Independent high quality stereo amplifiers • Provides high quality stereo reproduction to each stereo headset.
• High power, super slim, stereo speakers • Ergonomically designed for maximum comfort, high quality speakers deliver all the sound you need for use with or without earplugs.
• High quality, robust, water resistant headset lead and connectors • Designed to quick release in an emergency, with large orientation markings to ease alignment, even with gloves on.
• 12 months manufacturers warranty • With options to extend the manufacturers warranty to two or three years, for a small addition cost when you register your new product details directly to the UK factory using the reply form on the back of the instruction manuals or via email within 14 days of the original purchase date.
*Some phones may require a personal hands free adaptor.
Intelligent Audio, Wireless & Powe
• Aux 1 - Intelligent Audio Input - designed for Bike-to-Bike •
Both rider and passenger can use an optional bike-to-bike radio connected to the hub, activated via the I-VOX system, providing easy and safe hands free use without losing the rider to passenger communications or any other functions. If you bike power your hub you can also bike power recommended bike-to-bike radios. Take advantage of the optional handlebar remote control to disable the VOX transmit mode providing privacy for rider-to-passenger communications, and then transmit bike-to-bike messages at any time by either pressing the press-to-talk (PTT) button, or toggle back to the normal VOX transmit mode. When the phone is in use and disables the VOX transmit function, the remote control PTT button lets you over-ride this so that you can transmit to other bikes even when on the phone. Incoming bike to bike audio on Aux 1 on either hub automatically reduces the stereo music level on both hubs Aux 4 to 50% to improve speech clarity.
• Aux 2 - Intelligent Audio Input - designed for Stereo GPS •
A GPS can be connected to the hub using an optional interface lead to suit, or if your GPS unit transmits Bluetooth, by using the optional integral stereo Bluetooth wireless interface. Incoming GPS audio on Aux 2 automatically reduces the stereo music on Aux 4 by 50% for improved GPS clarity. Note; you can use some phones via some GPS units, but in most cases you lose the important GPS audio and safety camera warnings while using the phone through a GPS. This is why we provide separate GPS stereo connectivity and separate phone connectivity to manage this better for you.
• Aux 3 - Intelligent Audio Input - designed for Stereo Phone •
Phones can be connected to the hub using the standard lead* supplied, or via the optional stereo Bluetooth interfaces, without losing the rider-to-passenger communications. You can use some phones via some GPS units but see the note in Aux 2 above. Incoming phone audio on Aux 3 automatically reduces the stereo music on Aux 4 by 100% and bike to bike/GPS audio by 50% to improve phone conversation. The VOX transmit mode for bike-to-bike is disabled so that your phone conversations are not broadcast out to other bikes.
• Aux 4 - Intelligent Audio Input - designed for Stereo Music •
Rider and passenger speech automatically reduce the stereo music on Aux 4 to 50%. It doesn’t cut completely just in case you like to sing along. Audio from Aux 1 and 2 also reduces the stereo music by 50%to improve audio quality, while incoming audio on Aux 3 fully cuts the stereo music for improved phone conversations.
• Aux 5 and 6 - Optional Single or Twin Stereo Bluetooth Module/s •
Each of the stereo Bluetooth modules lets you connect wirelessly to one or two Bluetooth devices, so long as one is using hands free profile (such as a mobile phone or GPS, etc) and the other uses advanced audio profile (A2DP, such as stereo devices, mp3 players, etc). The twin Bluetooth module lets you connect to between 1 and 4 Bluetooth devices. These internal modules simply plug inside the hub and pairing is easy and reliable, and once done automatic each time you use the system. Incoming audio on Aux 5/6 can be set to have the same effects as incoming audio would on Aux 2 or 3.
• Intelligent Power Control •
Perfectly designed for portable battery use using 3 AA batteries (not included) or optionally bike powered for mile after mile of fuss free use. Either way you simply get on, plug-in and ride. The system automatically turns on and off via the headsets (when used portable) or via the bikes ignition (when bike powered). Built-in noise suppression helps to prevent any electrical noise from the bike entering the system. Thermal overload and reverse polarity protection help to protect your investment and let you enjoy a trouble free long life experience.
• Intelligent VOX with Ultra High Quality Rider and Passenger Headsets •
When either person speaks, the VOX system automatically turns on the microphones, reduces the stereo music, and transmits the bike-to-bike radio, for safer hands free use. When you stop speaking the microphone automatically turns off and the music gently glides back to its normal level. High quality, robust, water resistant, connectors and leads are custom designed for easy, safe and comfortable use and quick release in an emergency. Built to last but also easy to service or replace. Optional neat on-bike rubber socket holders with water resistant dust caps provide that professional finishing touch.
*some phones may require a headset adaptor to suit the standard phone lead 2.5mm plug (available from Autocom and most phone shops)
For most of the time your Autocom Kit L-1 is going to be perfect used as a portable, but for those longer trips, why not bike power it!
[The picture of Kate posted here is from the early 1980s.]
What follows is a short story I wrote in 1970 while I was a junior at Davidson College. I based it on one of two visits I'd made that winter to see my old girlfriend Kate at Hollins College (now Hollins University), where she was a freshman. We'd stopped dating a few months before we met up .
Her new boyfriend's nickname was "Jimmer". I liked the name and adopted it for my lead character. Kate became "Sarah", which was her name until she was three years old, when her father, who didn't like the name, had it changed to Katharine.
I looked a wreck that day - my hair was really long, and I had this thick scruffy beard. Kate didn't recognize me at first. All in all it was an extremely painful day for me. It killed me to see her, but I wasn't going to let her know it.
This story won first prize in the Queens College short story contest in 1971 for which I received ten bucks. It was published later in their literary magazine. It annoys me that I named it:
UNTITLED
Kate herself liked the story. At her suggestion I’ve retitled it
KIND OF BLUE
Jimmer realized as soon as he entered the lobby that the girl at the switchboard was too busy to get Sarah on the intercom, so he made himself comfortable. He sat down in a chair near the front door, kicked off his tennis shoes, and removed his glasses from his jacket pocket and balanced them neatly at the end of his nose. From another pocket he withdrew a small notebook and a ballpoint pen and began writing at the top of the first blank page:
“Your honor,” continued King with ironic deference to the white man who looked down on him from behind the bench like a bored nun, “this courtroom – and I’d like the record to reflect that I am referring to the people within this courtroom, since the courtroom itself is merely a room with a lot of chairs, a few tables, a couple of pitchers of water, and some air, and should therefore in no way be considered to be the addressee of my remarks per se – this courtroom has not once – as I have noted elsewhere – but on several occasions been the unconscious victim of a brutal miscarriage!” King stepped back from the bench and turned swiftly to face the courtroom spectators who now sat upright, attentive as school children, all of them silent as death, with the exception of one slightly-built long-haired youth who fidgeted in his seat throughout the entire proceedings, eating fishsticks and silently quoting Latin declensions. At a given
“Excuse me, can I get someone for you?” Startled, Jimmer looked up into the fat red face of the desk girl.
“What – no, that’s ok, I was – I mean, yes! Sarah Butler, on the, uh, second floor. No, third floor.”
“Second floor,” she said, turning to the intercom and flicking a switch.
Ok, then, dammit, the second goddamn floor. He looked away from her and read over what he’d written so far and decided it wasn’t much good. But it could have been great, he thought, if that bitch hadn’t – well, have to start on something else, I suppose. Something good and lurid for a change:
The savage desk girl flung her incredible body upon him like a thrill-crazed animal, nostrils flared, lips quivering with desire, her eyes crying HURT ME! as she tore the flimsy Villager blouse from her breast and hurled it across the room. In an instant she was naked, save for the crotchless Weejuns which clung tightly to her feet in just the right
“Are you Jimmer?” interrupted the desk girl. He sighed without looking at her and put his notebook away.
“I think so. Is she in?”
“Her roommate says she’s on her way down. I hate to do this, but would you mind putting on your shoes? It’s a rule, not me, they just – “
“Look, I’m real sorry but I drove all afternoon to get here and I’m tired, ok?”
“I’m sorry, but it’s a rule,” she said stubbornly. “The student handbook says -”
“Ok, ok, I’ll put them on!” He picked up his tennis shoes and slipped them over his bare feet. This girl is sick, he thought. Probably picks her nose in the library.
Seconds later Sarah walked into the lobby and gave him a hug, kissing him on the cheek. She seemed really happy to see him.
“I think we better go outside for awhile, Jimmer,” she said as she put on a faded green army jacket. “I want to talk with you.” They left the dormitory and walked through its parking lot toward some tennis courts. Sarah directed his attention to the hillside behind the far end of the courts.
“Unless you’d rather drive around off-campus, we can sit up there and talk.” She took his hand and he shook it loose. After a moment she added, “It’s kind of nice up there – kind of a nice view of the campus and all.”
“Yeah, ok. I’m a little tired of driving.”
They plodded up the hill until they came to a tree about halfway to the top. They sat down, and Sarah stretched out on her back. Jimmer looked out over the campus. Surrounding the school buildings, lake, and playing fields on three sides were the foothills of a mountain range. The sun was easing down behind them, and the air was getting cooler.
“Gets dark pretty early here,” Jimmer said after a long silence.
“It does,” she said from the ground. “The mountains cut off about an hour of sunlight.” She sat up and looked at him, and he watched the sun and the mountains. “I got your letter.”
"That’s great, Sarah. A good postman, like a good raincoat, won’t ever let you down.” He followed the path of the sun until it all but disappeared. “That girl at the front desk wouldn’t let me go barefoot in the lobby.”
“It’s one of their stupid rules. You can’t go barefoot anywhere on campus.”
“Shit, the way she acted it was like I had plant blight or something.”
“Why don’t you want to talk, Jimmer? She asked. “You used to like to talk with me.”
“I’m talking with you, aren’t I?”
“Well, you’re not saying anything,” she said. “You’ve really changed.”
“So have you.”
“I know.” She lay on her back again and sighed deeply. “We’re not the same people we were two years ago.”
“No, we’re not. So what?”
“I mean, it’s been a really long time. Since we last saw each other. Almost a year. I hear about you all the time.” She hesitated. “Everybody says you lost your mind and all.”
“Really? Everyone?”
“You haven’t been...doing anything, have you?”
“Not since last spring. I don’t do anything at all. I don’t even drink anymore.” He reached for a cigarette but decided against it. “I don’t smoke anymore either. I don’t even date, for Christ’s sake.”
Sarah laughed in disbelief. “You don’t date? Not at all?” Jimmer shook his head. Sarah laughed again. “God, if I were a boy, I’d be screwing every girl in sight!”
She removed a cigarette from a case in her jacket pocket and lit it. “Why aren’t you dating anyone, Jimmer?”
“I don’t know. I just don’t feel like it, that’s all. Maybe I’m queer. Maybe if I stopped hanging around the bathrooms at school I’d meet someone.”
A small underfed English setter ambled by out of nowhere and nuzzled his head in Jimmer’s crotch. Jimmer scratched the dog’s head and under his ears, and the dog licked his face. To fill the silence Jimmer decided to say something completely profound; it didn’t bother him that George Bernard Shaw had thought of it first.
“You know something? There are times when I really envy dogs. I mean, not like I’d like to be one or anything. It’s just that I find that the love I need lavished on dogs and cats and such things, and they don’t do anything to deserve it. They get it because they ask for it. And they’re not afraid to ask for it. But those of us who really need love don’t get it because we’re cowards.”
Sarah was silent and, he guessed, a little impressed. The dog sniffed along the inside of Jimmer’s leg, snorted, and trotted off downhill toward Sarah’s dormitory. “Well, it’s your own fault, Jimmer,” she said. “If you’d just bother to go out and, you know, meet people once in awhile, maybe you’d find someone. Someone who’ll really love you.”
“Oh, go to hell, Sarah.”
She sat up. “Ok, that does it. You go to hell, Jimmer. I’m not sorry we quit dating anymore!” Jimmer turned and looked at her for the first time that day. “You can’t say anything nice in your letters,” she continued, “and when you finally come see me, you don’t even act like a friend.”
Jimmer laughed. “Friend?”
“What we had is over. You never took me seriously, Jimmer. You never took anything seriously. You talk about wanting to be loved, but you don’t mean it. Everything’s just a great big joke to you!”
Her eyes were filling with tears. Jimmer turned away again and looked in the direction of her dormitory. The parking lot street lights were coming on, and a bell rang from atop another building nearby, probably the dining hall. “I’ll make out all right,” he said distantly. Several dormitory windows went dark. “Is it time for dinner or something? Is there some rule that says you have to eat now?”
“Oh, right, you’ll make out just fine, won’t you?” she continued bitterly. “Last year I took about all I could take, and then after awhile I just decided, that’s it. I’ve had it. I’m not going to take this anymore. I’m too young to waste my time being so unhappy all the time. I used to cry about it and then all of a sudden I just stopped crying.”
“You ran out on me,” he said simply. “When I needed you most, you weren’t there. You ran out on me.” He looked at her eyes again. Once, a year ago, she had closed them and asked him what color they were. He had answered, “Kinda blue.” They were green.
“Yes, I did, you bet!”
“So you left me. For what’s-his-name.”
“I started dating Lyman. But not right away. Not really until I came to school in the fall.”
“And now you’re in love again.”
“Yes.”
Jimmer threw up his hands in exasperation. “Why him, Sarah? The guy’s the biggest douchebag I’ve ever known! How could you possibly be in love with him?”
“He asks me the same thing about you, you know.”
“Yeah. So, what do you tell him?” The setter had returned for another rubdown, but Jimmer ignored him.
“I tell him the truth. That once you were very nice to me.” She reached down and stroked the back of the setter’s neck. The dog sat down and beat his tail on the ground and yawned. No one said anything for about a minute. The dog lay down on his side. Sarah knelt down to scratch his stomach.
“Do you still have that notebook?” she asked after awhile.
“What notebook?”
“The one you were always writing in. The one with all the stories and things in it that you used to let me read.”
“Oh, that. I don’t have it anymore.”
“There was more than one, right? I only saw one of them.”
“I don’t know what happened to them. I don’t do stuff like that anymore.”
She stood up. “Why not?”
“Because it was just another addiction to get over. I was creating my own little fantasy world, and I decided I’d be better off returning to reality and getting serious about my life again.”
“Is that why you’re such pleasant company? Because you’ve returned to reality?” It was getting colder now, so Sarah zipped up her jacket. Jimmer noticed that with the zipper closed, her hips stood out more prominently.
“I’m different now, Sarah. I don’t need all these stupid illusions to make my life liveable. That’s why I don’t feel a need to date right now – I don’t have to be seeing someone just to reassure myself that I’m still attractive to women.”
“That makes absolutely no sense at all,” she said, “although it’s not surprising, coming from you. It would seem to me that being by yourself all the time would just feed your fantasies.”
"Sorry that I'm not getting through to you, Sarah. I'm not going to patronize you by drawing you a picture." Jimmer looked at his watch. Mickey's big hand was on the one, and his little hand was pointing at the seven, just touching his left foot. "Look, I've got to get back to school, Sarah. I've got a paper due tomorrow, and I'll have to stay up all night."
"Well, ok. Why don't you call me? We'll get together some time when you're not so rushed."
"I'm not coming back. i just came by to say goodbye. 'The train stops at Chicago' and all that shit."
"Is it all right if I just write you then?"
"Why don't we just admit we made a mistake and forget that it ever happened, OK? There's no point in dragging this out any longer than we have."
They looked at each other for a few moments. Then Sarah shrugged her shoulders and said all right and turned away and started walking back down the hill. Jimmer and the dog remained together under the tree, watching her. She turned around and asked him if he was coming.
"No, you go on ahead. i'm going to stay up here with the furry animal for awhile." He paused for a few moments and added, "Your dinner's waiting for you."
She waited for a second or two, then left without looking back. It was so dark now he could barely see her. When he was reasonably sure she was out of sight, he and the setter walked down the hill to where his car was parked. He opened the front door on the driver's side, and the dog jumped up onto the front seat and sat down. Jimmer got in and shut the door.
He scratched the dog's neck and chest vigorously with both hands. The setter closed his eyes and broke into a kind of smile. "You like that, don't you. You old sensualist." Jimmer started the car and drove out the college's front gate.
I should have been a pair of ragged claws, he thought to himself. Like a lobster. Nothing to do but grope around all day and satisfy one's basic hungers. Well, maybe not a lobster. A rabbit. I wonder if rabbits get any sexual pleasure from intercourse. I guess they do. Or they might not do it so much.
"Hey, couldn't you see two rabbits lying side by side after having sex, breathing real hard, their ears all limp and all" he asked the dog. Jimmer laughed and looked over at the dog, who was still smiling. Then they both stared straight ahead at the road, not saying anything.
