I have performed, but could never do it as a living, even if

people paid to see me. One show every 6 months, that I could handle.

But every night? No way. What a fucking job. All jobs suck. I'm

making less than 200 a week in the cab sometimes, just barely holding

on, but I'll take it over going on stage twice a night all over the

country for just enough money to take me to my next job. God, what a

life. I applaud those who do it. But I also laugh at them. I can do

both, because I am able to see most things from both sides, not just

one like most idiots. We can go to the store and ridicule the

performers, that would be fun. I've done that. Let's do that, Bill.

You and me, together as one. I'll pay for staying at your place by

taking you out at night. Some nights I will want to go out alone, but

will take you along anyway, because I'm staying at your place rent

free. When can we sign the papers, Bill? I want to stay at your

pad. I want to be your pal.

Don't feel bad I believe there are a lot of people who find it hard

making a living.

Tommy,

 

for one, I wouldn't waste my valuable time out ridiculing comics

chasing their dreams. I do that in here because anyone that wastes

their time ridiculing me in here isn't much of a comic and has no

business pursuing industry. I think I proved that point with old so

and so.

 

Two, I don't think we are all that compatible. We don't even get

along in here, you hate the things I talk about. You hate the things

I believe in and stand for. Don't bullshit yourself Tommy I'm not

your kind of scum. Plus Tommy you're old enough to be my dad, would

you hang out with someone in their 80's?

 

Three, we've already discussed this previously, L.A. has changed since

the days you squatted the streets and it was determined that you

couldn't handle it now. Take my word on it you wouldn't like it

here. Stay in the warm friendly confines of North Carolina where it

is safe. I don't just feel that way about you, there's another mother

fucker that lives out here that is wasting his and his family's time

and should take his sad little ass back to North Carolina. He can

still make his home movies there.

 

Four, there is only a handful of comics that I would actually make an

effort to go and see live, and they don't do the Comedy Store. They

usually play at the Grove or larger venues in Socal. Most of the time

they are performing in middle America for real people.

 

Honestly if you do come out here against my better advice, and you do

have some smack on you I will definitely meet with you, I'll bring my

own needle though.

Some of that was actually pretty funny, O'Really. Some of it was

even true. Except for how much L.A. has changed since my departure.

Everything has changed. Change happens. It's changing here.

Everywhere I go turns to crap. It's almost like I'm a trail blazing

pioneer in making neighborhoods go down the tubes. Truth is,

everywhere I've lived was already on the way down, which is why they

rented to me in the first place. I don't care about L.A., O'Really.

I lived in the small town of Hollywood. I knew many parts of L.A.,

but lived only in Hollywood. Wherever you live, no matter how big the

town, you can only stand in one spot at one time.

Tommy, be honest you are you're own person. You don't need friends

and you don't want friends, you are a lone wolf.

 

What you do need is someone to hand you a wad of dough on a weekly

basis so that all you have to do is lay around, drink beer, and have

bowel movements all day.

 

That would be your ideal retirement.

I lived in the old part of Hollywood among the SSI people. I

applied myself, but they turned me down. Not nuts enough. And they

were right. I was too egotistical to put on a good enough show for

the state psychiatrist. I tried again two more times since and was

turned down both times. Yes, I'll take that monthly check and live

quite happily. I'm proud of it. I'm getting ready to apply again,

only this time I'm not going down without a fight. It's probably too

late, but you never know. I know a guy in L.A. who had asthma really

bad, in the hospital by ambulance nearly every other day. He applied

for it and finally got it after years of trying. He died within two

months of getting his first check. So you got me right, O'Really.

I'll take the check. Weekly, montly, anyway you want to divvy it up,

I'll take that fucking check - just like I took it when my best friend

Charles died back in '91. I was his payee. I got his check every

month and cashed it for him, then gave him all the cash. When he died

the checks kept coming. It went on for 9 months until one day I got a

letter saying it was time for them to see Charles for his every-two-

years re-evaluaion. Well, he couldn't make it, dead you know? So

that was the end of that. The checks stopped coming the following

month.

Wrong, Bozo! You can't make turds without food, and food costs

money. Toilet papers aint cheap either, not when you use two rolls a

day.

I hope you mean that and I hope you're right, although it's

really hard to get federal aid these days. Maybe they'll take pity on

me now that I'm 60. Or maybe they'll figure I don't have long to

live, so why not toss me a bone to keep me from going out and killing

a bunch of people. I don't have the guts, and never did, to pull the

sort of stunt necessary to get medical support - such as pretending

I'm going to leap from a tall building. It takes guts to pull off

such a stunt. The kind of guts I had when I was a kid.

 

Oh, by the way, meant to add in the other thread about getting out

of the service. On the way to the all-day selective service exam,

everyone on the bus was talking about what they were going to do to

get out. They all talked about claiming to be gay, as they had all

heard that this would work. I believed them. I always believed most

people when I was a kid, because I was honest with my own comments and

assumed everyone was the same. Those kids talked about all sorts of

things they were going to do to get out of the service. But at the

end of the day I was the only one not excused, the only one held over

for the night - a free meal and hotel, an appointment the next day

with a shrink. I was truly amazed that I was the only one. I really

believed some of those kids would hold true to their boasts.

I hear the best shit of one's life is at just the moment they die,

when it all comes pouring out in one big relief-filled moment of

ecstacy and fear combined that also sometimes causes one to

ejaculation at just the moment they cease to breath. So it's

basically a wild and wooly combination of gasping for air, taking the

greatest shit of your life, and ejaculating, all at the same time.

Of course I mean it. I hope you can get all the assistance you can

get. I don't wish you hardship, I'm sure you had enough of that in

your life.

 

I don't fault any young man for not wanting to go to combat. History

has shown Vietnam was bullshit, and I think we are all seeing Iraq is

the same.

 

What I find disturbing is that 40 years later at the age of 60 you

would be still boasting about it as it was something to be proud of.

 

I've known you long enough in here to know, you like to say shocking

things. I'm sure you mean every word you say, but I also think you

say it because it gives you some kind of vindication to continue to

bragging about it. Deep inside I suspect you're not all that proud of

it.

 

If the military was not your cup of tea, that's fine and dandy, but I

think you go one step further and demean the service of other

Americans who chose to Serve and you shouldn't do that.

 

I'm empathetic to you disclosing that you were institutionalized as an

adolescent, not that I was institutionalized, but I was on the other

side of the counter.

 

No one likes to be told what to do and they sure don't like to be

barked at, but I found this Tommy and my life has been a lot more

brief than yours. I found that the more affluent someone is the more

autonomy they enjoy over his or her every day life. I wish you Luck.
