A visionary once wrote, "I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love." So the twisted world we live him threw PILES of cash at him and made him famous. To test his resolve. He may have been the one shot by someone who misunderstood fame for infamy. Some dude whose name I will not repeat out of respect for the dead visionary who may or may not have writing credit for that song. Writing credit is a beautiful invention made by lawyers to make music batter.They invented the music business. Lawyers make everything fair and better. Lawyers know more ways to lie than Eskimos have words for snow.
There are subtleties to the English language. Lawyers know all of the shaduings of words because of something called libel and sl;ander. My job is to explain these concepts to rich Mexican's kids so the whitedevil can't rip them off again. It's the sweetest scam ever. Being paid to talk to people's kids. Molding youth. To connect. So this will be my lesson plan for today mrbossman. I will use the name mrbossman, mrbossmanSIR,and the Spanish "Senor' Jefe" interchangeably to represent the source of evil in the world. A great man once said "It is easier to for a camel to be put through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven." They killed him too.
So no one is trying to kill me yet, except for one extremely deranged feminist who fell in love with me. That's a potentially libelous statement because it is in print. It is not libel because I have witnesses who heard her say it. She often told me she loved me despite the the horrified faces that her Valkyrie girlfriend would make. She had a mohawk and hated men even worse than the one that loved me did. I was special. It was their bond, but I loved her too because she was against most of the same things I was against. Her (now mohawkless) lawyer girlfriend who she won't marry because it represents an institution of oppression or something. You kind of stop listening to demagogs when they begin their rants. At least I do. My ears kind of "glaze over". She was right about marriage but wrong about me. You kill great men, I'm just a troublemaker. I moved to Mexico to escape the toxic culture that birthed her. A culture that may be "too free. " If you measure freedom by gun deaths and people killed by drunk drivers. It's too easy to kill someone in the USA and "they" hate our freedom so they build for profit jails and sell stock in them and no one riots. Slavery is legal now if you break the law. So they offer prisoners ten cents an hour and everybody wins. A lawyer could help an ex-con spin their resume into a job in Congress if they have the right last name. Senators sons go to rehab. Poor kids go to jail. Democracy works.
I didn't like living in a country that was that free. So I moved to a country where it will take me a few years to figure out just how nuts they are down here once I begin to understand the nuances of Mexican crazy. The sun is the toughest dude on the block down here, but the Mayan dudes work all day in the sun because they are true bad-asses who work for the man all day. I am trying to learn Mayan. I will bring the concept of Slack to this gentle family oriented people. Wait. Slack is the language of the man. Mayan women run the show. They must or their men would not be working so hard in the sun all day. "The Morena in my Hamaca" will be the name of the book I write when I speak enough Mayan to be sexy. Goals. If I figure out that Mayans are crazy I will stay though. Three strikes. Three tries. Three cultures, everyone is crazy, "The trick," my married friend said. "... is to find someone whose neuroses mesh well with yours. his ADD makes him a great earner and my manic depression keeps him on his toes!"
You are free to be as crazy as you want to be in America. The gun nuts in rural areas are frothing at the bit. Whipped into a frenzy by the radio and tv guys saying cops with tanks are going to come get their guns. That's fine with the patriotic rednecks at the bar, who say the "Gub'mint can pry my gun from my cold dead fingers." I think Ben Franklin said that. No one bothers killing these guys. They are already dead inside. They got bit by the fear virus. The fear is in their head. As a great fictional character named Spock said, "Fear is the mind-killer". They killed him in Star Trek 2. He said that in a Western town where the bullets only killed you if you believed in them. That was back when visionaries wrote tv scripts. Dudes like Harlan Ellison who wrote possibly the greatest title ever, "I have no mouth and I must Scream" Dudes like him were writing for Gene Roddenberry who put a black chick in space to inspire Whoopie Goldberg as a young girl.
Pry is a pretty nuanced word for a Patriotic weed growing, moon shine drinking, Constitutionalist to use. They GET nuance in the sticks and only act simple to throw the feds off. The same trick that students use to fool there teachers, the easy lies about "don't fro me in the briar patch". "my dog ate my homework" and I am getting into law because I want to help people" I saw a Patriotic movie about moonshiners killing government agents early last yeat and knew it was time to get out of the country. Those guys are what will save America, if it is to be saved, but to do it you would have to invent a new kind of money. The kind that only works in your neighborhood. And when you do invent it, keep it secret or the government will throw you in jail.
The new kind of money should have an expiration date on it, an IOU, valid thru 2015. The problem with money is it just accumulates in piles which have to be protected from the professional thieves that the invention of money money created. What a great scam early money was! Here's a metal portrait of me, I will protect you from those assholes in the Castle from France and those nasty slave-trading Muslims. They call us infidels. They are different, they don;t even charge interest.The clever thief whoi invented "interest" rates "created" money out of thin air. What a hero. Then insurance policies which took the banking industry to the next level Protecting slave ships from storms. But rich people are said to have consciences too, or at least their wives do, so they called these loans to slave owners "Bonds". Bondage. English is nuanced sometimes, and sometimes it smacks you in the face. The rich guys told their wives the bank the bank they insured merchant ships. The wives figured that out, so they invented financial instruments business.
"I'm just buying stock in a bank my cousin owns honey, its in Boston and slaves are illegal there." Who the Bank loaned money to was their business and money laundering was born to keep the women off their back. When they started explaining how the futures market worked and what derivatives were their wives ears glazed over. Polite conversation was saved in the salons and tea rooms and matrimonial beds. And it was all legal.
We stole this country from England after emptying the prisons to exterminate the Native population. It was all legal, France adopted a wait and see attitude after saying the paper looks official. SO maybe they weren't assholes in castles after all. the French do not work at night or longer than eight hours a day because they will burn Paris down. They saw the Nazi's for who they were and realized the true enemies of freedom were rich dudes. America will figure it out soon or turn into one large Prison. I love apologizing to the kids about stealing California, Texas and Florida form them, but like I said, they are smart. They realized it was bad politics to mess with a well armed nation of psychopathic killers. A nation whose lawyers coined phrases like "justifiable homicide" which cops refer to as a "good kill" There's an oxymorn for ya.
My IOU's will read something like this. I owe you one days work. Lets define our terms. You are reading one days work here. Now I'm gonna go talk to some rich Mexicans kids for three hours to get lentil money. And I'm done. I could be convinced to do about an hour of leisuirely gardening and don't mind cooking. There's some stuff that a natural man has to do each day to feel good about life and I intend to spend part of each day doing that so let's call that 3 hours. So that's 7-8 hours of heavy thinking and talking there. l can sometimes bed be convinced to do a couple few hours of back breaking labor, some day in the near future, in return for some booze or some flowers to smoke. Or just because it needs to be done, it depends on my mood, it just isn' happening today without a bribe that fixes my thinking during the labor. There's a case of beer behind the woodpile sort of thing. It doesn't hurt to ask but don't be hurt when I say no. I value my time more than most bosses do, that's for sure. I will always make enough to scrape by, and that's fine with me. It's not fine with most American women and that's one of the main reasons I'm single with my pretty blue eyes and kind nature. Plus, what half end in divorce? More money for lawyers. Yeah. usa usa.
