For something to do before the medics arrive, something to take your mind off the fire in your side, fill in the form attached to your copy of Wixom's summons--he took the paper, didn't he?

Counting Wixom, over four hundred bucks. Plus mileage.
All things considered, not a bad day. Not a bad day at all.
