Robert Sheckley died on this day 17 years ago. He was a brilliant, witty writer, one of the finest short story writers of Science Fiction, an inspiration to Douglas Adams. His grave is near me and I clean the weeds off when I pass.

@neilhimself I was horrified … until I reread the last word and it wasn’t actually ‘piss’

Sorry, it’s 4am and my eyes are blurry.
