I sent that to a Marine unit in Afghanistan this afternoon. I was trying to post it somewhere where it wouldn’t be noticed.
Crap.

Fine, I’ll take my shower then. Let me know when it’s safe to come out.

I’m sorry.
I’ve been caught in a Chrono Synclastic Infundibulum for the last five years. Is this the thread I was bumping before I left?

No, it's a bit of gibberish from one of Vonnegut's novels - The Sirens of Titan.
Here's a bit of the explanation, rendered in classic Vonnegutian:
"... since the Universe is so large, there are many possible ways to observe it, all of which are equally valid, because people from across the Universe can't communicate with each other (and therefore can't get into an argument). The chrono-synclastic infundibula are places where these "ways to be right" coexist. When they enter the infundibulum, Rumfoord and Kazak become "wave phenomena", somewhat akin to the probability waves encountered in quantum mechanics. They exist along a spiral stretching from the Sun to the star Betelgeuse. When a planet, such as the Earth, intersects their spiral, Rumfoord and Kazak materialize, temporarily, on that planet."
Chrono = Time
Synclastic = Seamless, like the skin of an orange
Infundibulum = Funnel

I read a few things by Kurt when I was a teenager and pre teen in the 60s and 70s.
I still turned out OK I think.

Actually, I think that he should be required reading, for two reasons.
He has frighteningly accurate visions of the dystopian future, coupled with the fuzzy alcoholic mumblings of LibThink.
He is at once a visionary and an idiot, and smart enough to probably agree with that analysis. (I’m pretty sure of this, having met him personally. He was engaging, insightful, funny as hell and drunk.)

I was trying to be funny.
I do remember that what I read by him seemed a little, um, “off”.
And I will agree that what he wrote made you think beyond the story you were reading.

I know you were.
Most everything I say is serio-comic. Even the true stuff.
