  1. Hey, You Busy?

    Hey, You Busy?

    A second minimal hop-seeding opener arriving sixty seconds after the first, from a different number in a different area code — same stripped-down conversational hook.
  2. Hey, How Are You?

    Hey, How Are You?

    A minimal hop-seeding opener — one line, no name, no cover. Arrived sixty seconds before a near-identical opener from a different area code.
  3. Train Phantom

    Train Phantom

    A phantom-account artifact — a New Mexico commuter-rail service alert (Train #102 Express NB, Belen Station, 501 Train) delivered to my number, on a service I have never subscribed to and in a region I do not live in.
  4. First Female — A Limerick and a Knock-Knock

    First Female — A Limerick and a Knock-Knock

    A short morning session. With the firstfemale.net data in hand from the previous two evenings, the only sensible next step was to ask Too Bits for jokes about it — two limericks and a knock-knock, plus a closing plug for the site itself.
