Well, there was something in the air here on this island so maybe they were piping in stupid drugs in Washington DC?

"From what you're describing," Riley said, "it sounds like they're arguing over a toy on the playground. My mom once told me to ignore the toy and the other person would get bored and move on. Guess we can't really ignore the government, can we?"

"I think that's what got us into this mess," Josh said. "If no one pays attention to what's happening, then the crazies who live for this crap--not me, I'm normal--elect people just as crazy as they are."

"Well, hopefully they fix this," Riley said, making a face, "because if anarchy descends, I'm gonna be one of the first ones to go."

Because he was a wimp.

"Well, if anarchy does descend, we're probably on the best island for it," Josh said. "Pretty much everyone else knows how to shoot things and kill people using a toothpick and their wild-eyed star."

"Hopefully anything like that holds off for...a few days," he said, glancing at his watch to check the date. "I've got a friend coming this weekend and I really don't want him swinging into an adventure and acting like he can save the world. Again."

"I have a friend coming too! Maybe we can pawn them off on each other," Josh suggested.

"Is your friend easily talked into doing insane things?" Riley checked.

"He once tried to help me light a fire in a historical White House fireplace because we were cold?"

"Yeah, they'd probably get along," Riley said because he knew Ben. "As long as your friend doesn't mind random lectures about history."

"He loves 'em," Josh said, nodding. "Mine's named Sam. Yours?"

"Ben," Riley shared. "If Ben wasn't shacked up with someone, I'd suggest they get married and live happily ever after."

"Sam's not really lucky in love," Josh understated. Vastly, vastly understated. "He's kind of married to his job."

"Then, they can be the best of friends and Ben can stop sending me into an early retirement," Riley decided. "Even if I doubt that'll happen because Ben lives to exasperate me."

"Sam loves being exasperated," Josh said. "It gives him joy in his lonely life. They'll love meeting each other."

Poor Sam.

"I'll make sure to find you," Riley promised, nodding. "Ben'll love meeting his soulmate."
