The Great Wake 7: Body Odor And Long Fingernails


This analysis came strait from the source, got it from the source.  Jeff Spicoli is worn out, but he's not done yet, the Vice documentary squad is on the scene.  The Neo-Journalists.  With Neo-Wave music and hairsprayed hair.  Thought he was taller, I was surprised when he stood.


He smelled of body odor and long fingernails, he looked like an actor, he acted like he was acting.  He frowned.  So much promise way back, free spirit, class cutter, a teacher's nightmare.  Now this, pouting and somber, and sober.  Mr. Hand got the last laugh, the 'told you so' laugh.

But it's a hollow laughter, a sad laughter, it's heavy.  This ain't no disco, this ain't no party, this ain't no fooling around.  He kept talking, I was having trouble following his logic.  Then he looks at me dead in the the eyes, calm like, and said, “What Jefferson was saying was, Hey! You know, we left this England place ’cause it was bogus; so if we don’t get some cool rules ourselves—pronto—we’ll just be bogus, too! Get it?"  And I did get it, we needed some cool rules quick, some Neo-Cool Rules.

Sources Say 5: The Fool's Century

  On the inside it's uglier than most can imagine.  Scandal, cover ups, hook ups, and pick-me-ups.  No telling what kinda narcotics float around, pill to pill, shot to shot, dose to dose, a pharmaceutical disaster.  Like Elvis without any music or Chuck Berry without any moves or Bruce Lee without any kicks or Speedy Gonzales without any speed.  Just dizzy, slurring pigment obsessed drunks, sources say. What does CBS stand for anyway?  Doesn't matter now, they've become irrelevant, a bleak reminder of last century.  The fool's century.  Duped and looped.  Now we know. We started in around the late 40's, picking fights, manipulation, sinister and crude.  Stealthy.  Spies with eyes in the skies.  Peace was never kept, it was invaded.  America was a TV show on CBS.

Sources Say 2: They Miss The Ink

  Related to manipulation abuse, but with a capitalistic twist.  They are paid by the manipulators and the victims of manipulation.  It's a winning business model until the walls come crumbling down on the street, until the curtains pull back.  You thought Oz was bad, at least they got you back to Kansas.  These journal jerks got nothing. Even a few of my sources have moved on, the wreck has left the place dim and disgruntled.  Evidently, what's-her-name stormed out of a staff meeting in tears, mumbling something about pills and booze and karaoke night.  Guess it didn't go well.  Everyone laughed at her when she left the room, seems a real toxic work environment.  They miss the ink. But that won't stop them from cheering on China, and for good reasons.  Ask the finance department.  Money's money, honey, and they got the name, the bull statue, the cufflinks.  They got smear jobs, insinuations, and an editorial board.  Somew...
