OUR MAN in EUROPE: HOTEL DAVE: No. 28: "...Always trust your Stalker."

OUR MAN in EUROPE: No. 28: "...Always trust your Stalker." Ol' "pal", Artemis Blagovich-Smith, recently released from an Italian jail (credit card-fraud), now on some "vague" kind of parole, re-appears on the Piacenza (Italian) scene.... He, apparently, is absolutely NOT welcome/wanted/invited (back) to Bologna, Ferarra, Rimini, Cremona, Pisa, etc., etc. And positively EXCOMMUNICATED from Rome.... Some "Papal Bull" thing...... Anyways; he's back! -hogging the steps of the "loggia" at the Palazzo Gottico.......... Did I mention he has beautiful teeth?..... U got dental problems?... Go ROB the 7-11 (local store), get caught, busted, spend 6 months in the "slammer"?... It saves U $28,000 and, again! -apparently?, even in Italy, they give U $100 to catch the "optional" bus-ride into town when you're set free!.......... They say that Crime dosent pay, but for some?... It IS a lifestyle and DOES take care of that pesky Dental thing............. Where was I?...... Dental thing?..... Artemis B.S......?..... Oh yes: He (Artemis) has decided - a tad late in life - to become a "prolific songwriter" with a specific focus on re-writing JAMES BOND movie soundtracks........ He showed me a list of song titles; those pesky lyrical contents, to be composed at a later date...... Check 'em out!......(from his list:)...... "YOU ONLY LIVE THRICE!"....... "DIAMONDS ARE FOR DICKHEADS!"...... "GOLD-BUGGER!"...... (I liked that one)....... "THE PRICK WITH THE GOLDEN GUN.".......... "CASINO SOUR."...... (Sound like a cocktail, I guess.)...... "QUANTUM FRICKIN PHYSICS, ASSHOLE!" (my personal favourite)....... And so on, and so on............................. I, getting on in my years, begin to see that just about EVERYONE has a Stalker...... It may be your best friend; U may have MARRIED one!..... It's someone close, for sure....... The trick is to identitfy him/her....and accept the "cretins" existence....... Once acknowledge?... U can ALWAYS "trust" your Stalker.... They are often just a benevolent mosquito; yet still: a Mosquito!...... Enemies & friends?..... Now, THAT'S a "Crap-shoot!"....................... "FROM RUSSIA WITH GLOVES...".......... OK, Atemis. I grow weary. I think - if U don't mind? - I'll take a loooonnnngg snooze....:) .......................................... c 2012. davedelacroix/lord borgo/piacenza/italy/suns, today? -has got it hat on! -grazie dio!...:)
