this is Ljube just trying to get back at the person killing
really pay attention to his vote, which was for Hunter
I urge the remaining people to vote for Hunter

And then there were six ...
Bill, Dave, and John were sitting at the Random House table, in the afternoon, wondering what was going to happen next. They were down to six, from the original group of 22, and they couldn't help feeling depressed about the situation.
"Come on, guys ... buck up!" said John. "We have to present a good face to the crowds. There are hundreds of fans here, and we have to smile and shake hands and do all the things that the people who sell our books deserve. If it weren't for them, we'd not get anything!"
"John - we're just waiting to die, don't you see? No matter what, we die. We have tried everything ... and we have the blood of eight of our own on our hands, don't forget. Seven, I guess, since Anne was the right one ... maybe six, if it was really Tom Wolfe, but we've been wrong nearly every time before. What's going to change it this time?" said Bill.
"Yeah... John's right. We need to present a good face here. Heck, if we're going to die, I'm going to die with a smile on my face. And clean underpants ... hopefully ... guess that depends on how I die, though ..." said Dave. "Well, I guess I can try... but I'm not going to the bathroom, no matter what," said Bill.
<... but then a time-warp occurs, and ... >
<... no, wait. Nevermind. He's definitely toast.>
Hunter, Paul, and David Sedaris cluster together at the Simon and Schuster exhibit not too far away.
"Ahh, that's some good stuff," said Hunter. "1982, i think, if i'm not mistaken ..."
"Haha, good one Hunter. They'd never give you something older than about three months at a place like this," said Paul. "You're just letting the tension get to your head."
"Oh, I do not know. This tastes pretty good," said David Sedaris.
"Yeah, but you two were after all both pretty close to being chosen earlier today ... I think it's just the stress."
"Sounds more like you should be stressed, haha," said Hunter. "Being right next to two possible killers ..."
"Hey, hey, don't push it, Hunter," said David. "If you're going to kill him, just do it."
"Yeah, you too, bub," said Hunter.
"Hey - please guys, let's not get into a fight here," said Paul. "Or if you are going to, let me get away from here first ..."
Paul inched away, and headed to his Houghton Mifflin exhibit. David Sedaris also went over to his exhibit at the Time-Warner annex.
--
Bill, Dave Barry, and John were sitting around the table, all staring off into nowhere - the same nowhere, oddly enough.
"I'm off to go buy a soda," said John. "Be back in a sec." He went off towards the soda stand.
A few minutes later, Dave said, "Hmm, bathroom ... be right back!" He wandered off the other direction, towards the bathroom.
Dave and John run into each other a few feet from the table. Literally; John's coke spills a little bit on Dave. "Hey, get that top on properly," said Dave. "That Coke is pretty sticky, it will ruin my ... oh, yeh, it's just a shirt, nevermind."
"Sorry ... you can borrow one of mine if you need," said John.
"Nah, I've got plenty," said Dave.
They walked up to the desk - and saw Bill Bryson, fallen across two seats, his neck broken in two places.

The five remaining authors get together to discuss what will happen next ...

Dave Barry, David Sedaris, John Irving, and Hunter S. Thompson stood together in McCormick center Sunday morning, each looking at each other suspiciously.
"Hunter - I don't know how you got away with it, but you better stay away from me," said David Sedaris. "I'm not letting you kill me, even if nobody else believes me."
"Well, that's good, because I'm not getting anywhere near you - you're liable to twist my head off," said Hunter. "If you can, anyway - I doubt you'd beat me in a fair fight, and trust me, I don't fight fair."
"Well, I think we're safe now," said John. "That Paul - never speaking up to defend himself, even. Crazy whacko, he was ..."
"I hope so ..." said Dave Barry. "Although you can be a bit crazy yourself, Irving ..."
"I propose we split up in 2's," said David Sedaris. "I'll stick with John Irving, and you two stick together. That way nobody is with the person they think is the murderer."
"Sounds good to me," said Hunter. "Keeps me safe from the likes of you."
"Eh, whatever you want," said John.
"Sure," said Dave Barry.
They walk away in their pairs, Dave Barry with Hunter, and David Sedaris with John.
--
"I'm glad I'm away from Hunter," said David, "but I'm worried about Dave Barry. I think he's going to end up toast ..."
"Nah, Hunter wouldn't kill him, even if he were the murderer - it's too obvious," said John. "Dave is his alibi."
"True, but we're down to only four of us ..." said David. "Ah well, at least we're safe together."
"Yeah. Let's get a soda," said John. "I'm thirsty..."
"Sounds good," said David.
They walk up to the counter.
"Diet coke, for me," said David. "Large."
"And I'd like a Cherry Coke," said John. "Medium - I don't want to have to spend all day going to the bathroom. Age does have its disadvantages, wink wink."
"Yeah, I'm sure i could handle a large with no problem," said David.
--
"Good thing Sedaris is on the other side of the exhibits," said Hunter. "I want as much space separating us as possible ..."
"Um, I think you're safe," said Dave Barry. "Two of us could take him on, I think..."
"Yeah, that Sedaris is pretty wimpy," said Hunter. "I once took out three guys at once with a couple of rolls of pennies and a steel-toed boot. I'm sure I could handle him ..."
"Sounds good ..." said Dave Barry.
They walk into a bathroom.
--
"Hmm, back to the tables, you think?" said David. "Or are you still interested in browsing some more?"
"Either way," said John. "You done with your soda yet?"
"Yeah, i'm done," said David. "Actually, this might be a good time to go take a break in the bathroom ..."
"Haha, what was that about you holding a whole large? Hmm? Guess I'm not as old as I thought ... " said John.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Ah, here's the bathroom."
"I might as well go too, i'll need to soon enough."
--
Hunter comes out of the bathroom, and waits outside for Dave Barry. A few moments later, John comes out, and nearly runs into Hunter.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" said John. "You are supposed to be with Dave!"
"And you are with that jerk Sedaris," said Hunter. "Where's the bum?"
At that point, David Sedaris walks out, and sees John (but not Hunter, who's behind John).
"Heya, ready to go," said David.
"Yeah, let's ... you don't want to hang around here," said John, trying to urge him the other way.
"Hey, that's Hunter ... what, you kill off Barry already?" said David.
"No, he's ... hm, he's been in there a while now. I'm going to go take a look ..."
--
Hunter comes out a minute later.
"Looks like I was right," said Hunter. "Dave Barry's in there alright - and has his head on in quite an odd fashion. You #$%#$%!!"
John holds David and Hunter apart as best as he can. "Okay, okay, so we just do this again, right?" says John. "Now, we vote ..."
----------
The vote is due by monday. I can't update again today unless the votes are in soon. I may also not update monday, as i'm working tonight AND tomorrow morning, so depends on my sleep abilities.
