Explicitly Implied

L. Wexler explicitly concludes and states, in the last two pages, that Loy has taken an active part in the murder of the four unfortunate.

How could she write this since all the testimonies are contradictive? I don’t buy it.

In fact she doesn’t. She doesn’t write this, but I’m convinced that most readers in the end believe that Loy is one of the organizers and executors of the murder. And if she would have written it explicitly, most readers would have argued that this is unproved and pure assumption.

Is all of this more than a speculation? Does a well implied idea have better chances to make a message believable than a straight forward statement? Yes to both questions!

Anyway, if the above seems un-whatever, I’ll be happy to blame it on the traffic. I have to fill up the 80-90 minutes morning commute to Silver Spring with something. What a better occasion to think about L. Wexler, while listening and repeating to French tapes? It’s much better than staring at the global car burping around me.

Then, during the meeting, my boss asks – “What’s on your plate?” (He likes this expression.) – Today it was leftovers from other people – some over-chewed code to fix… bwah. And I like it when one of my colleagues says – “Like I said:” – then she quotes herself from some previous conversation. What a lovely thing! The other webmaster gave blood today. She was awarded with a sticker - “Be nice to me, I’m a blood donor.” Sure I was nice, while trying to avoid the smiling sticker stuck on her left bumper.

Back home, I realize again, that on Friday evening the Beatles sound like a fly. I’m gonna catch and use them for tomorrow’s fishing. In the meanwhile, some additional distortion will help me get straight.

"Overchewed code." I have to second Sacha's comment. I would, too.
