As crazy as this sounds, Rock woke up scared that there was a chance daylight savings time might result in the death of everyone who lived in the American central time zone. There was, in his hypoglycemic dream, a cushion that covered the entire zone, and its support consisted of poles and rods that would replace actual human arms when humans slept or were too cold to come out from under the covers. That was all that would prevent the heavy cushion from collapsing on this section from western Kansas through Tennessee, Alabama, and Illinois.
Rock was convinced that he had figured the matter correctly, so much so that he debated the relative importance of arranging sweatpants and golf clubs to keep himself warm and his house intact against making the tee-time he and John Czernecki had agreed to for a round of golf at War Memorial Golf Course.
He gradually began to wonder how this could be. Surely no one would have ever accepted this arrangement.
