Summary
The first thing you learn is that a standard Brickford fuse burns about a centimeter a second. More or less everything is secondary to that: how long is your fuse, and where are you when it runs out.
Everything other than that is just embellishments on a theme. Tin cans full of gun-cotton and dynamite. Milk bottles stuffed with barbed wire and twisted nails; how brittle a barrier a human body is, against any real damage. He can remember the earliest days, still: bent over lanterns or candles, or patches of moon, craning at increasingly bizarre angles to keep his own shadow out of the way, trimming jute to exacting lengths while one of them ran down the seconds and squabbled half-heartedly about the math. [...]
This thing with Ogata has a fuse on it, is the point. Sooner or later, it’s going to run down.
OR:
A haircut, a dubious backwoods blowjob, and some facts about grenades.
