Explosive - Cargo 2

About the Book

Alas, my friends,  there's more. You thought you'd suffered enough. But, no. The first explosive-cargo book was, sigh, only the first.

There's another. This is it. It's called Duck and Cover. I'm so sorry. But too late now. You'll just have to live with it. Besides, you knew the job was dangerous when you took it.

Anyway, Duck and Cover is what they used to tell us to do if a nuclear weapon went off near by. I'm not quite sure why. It would just mean that you'd be incinerated on your knees rather than standing up. But, then, I've noticed that the kind of powerful people who get their jollies thinking about World War III rather like having the rest of us in that position. Not standing, I mean. But that's another story.

Anyway, Duck and Cover wouldn't really wouldn't work against H-Bombs. Maybe only fire quackers. Get it? It's a joke.  Quackers? Duck. Ha. Ha. Never mind.

But it works as a title for this book. 'Cause it's really fowl. That's a joke, too. Okay, it was stupid joke. But somebody had to tell it.

And on that note . . .

Onward and Upward.
