Knowing When To Say....
“You know what your problem is? You don’t know how to tell everyone to kiss your ass RJ! DNC is a militaristic right wing psychopathic asshole who thinks that bars are gathering places for decent people to have a few drinks, find some pussy and go home.
Well let me tell you, bars are where lowlifes go to score some nose candy or get some weed or trade drugs for sex from bar skanks RJ. You need to tell DNC just that.”
“Well, he really feels for people NF. He believes that even the lowest lowlife dive has someone in it who really wants to just have fun or get away for a while to hang with folks they know.” “Oh, a place where everybody knows your name…and they’re really glad you came…he believes every bar is “Cheers? What kind of drugs is he on? Bars are where whores, homo’s, dikes, convicts and wanna be bikers go to try to be cool RJ.”
“DNC is under a lot of stress NF, he is attempting to build a business out of what is really nothing except the notion that people want to know where to pursue happiness. I know the guy is wound tighter than a cheap watch and he sometime acts kind of weird, he gets that far away look in his eye sometimes when you talk about certain things.” “Yeah, he was in the Marines, he belonged to a CAU, he don’t talk much about it RJ.”
“I wonder why NF?” “Think about it, he has a wall full of awards and a display case full of medals. Marines don’t give out medals for baking cookies, he was like you, a cop out west somewhere working undercover until he got hurt. Didn’t he go to the VA for awhile because he was sick RJ?” “He has nightmares, PTSD NF.” “How do you know?”
“I picked him up at his house one morning after one of his nightmares, he eased down the stairs with his shotgun because he heard a noise in his basement. The noise was a loose filament in the refrigerator coil. “So he’s a little tense, why go to the VA over that?” NF, what if I told you he shot his refrigerator twice with triple OT buck?” “Who else knows that RJ?” “No one.” “Don’t tell anyone RJ.”
“Tell DNC there comes a time in a man’s life when he just has to say ‘fuck it’! In fact don’t tell him RJ, I’ll tell him. There comes a time when women won’t talk to you, friends treat you like an alien and your family uses you like a doormat. It happens to any man who has got to pay bills and is responsible enough to go to work and pay his fucking taxes.”
“OK NF, I’ll let you talk to him, do it in the afternoon or evening after he’s taken his blood pressure medication, pain pills and antibiotics.” “WHAT, why all the fucking Meds?” “Internal bleeding, old wounds that haven’t healed from the service and constant worry about his Mom since his Dad died, threats from in-laws since his wife died, his brother wrecked his Chevy and he has custody of his sisters kid who’s a total fuck up.”
“RJ, I’m gonna talk to DNC, his life reminds me of that song by the ‘BAND’ you know, ‘The Weight’.” “What you gonna say to him NF?” “I’m gonna tell him, ‘when bitches won’t love you, friends don’t know you and pills don’t fix you, FUCK IT! Pack your bags, hit the road and FUCK IT! Mail the bills, call the job, tell the world to kiss your ass and FUCK IT! That’s what I’m gonna tell him.”
Thanks NF.
RJ
