A Sucker for Mania (let me explainia)

Chapter 6 An Eloquent Display of Innocence Portrayed

"Hi, and I hope you are having a happy day. I hope you are HAPPY... HAPPY...!"

Harvey was a harp he helped out homeless people, they were on the streets with nothing to eats. Happy likes to clown around he likes when he sings upon his steeple...

No

Not you

We never lost control

Alone in the world

The man who sold his soul

Niceties are pleasantries

Travolta flies a jet plane. He don't carry no gun even though he does in the movies, he dances in the sky now 'cause he's "Grease lightning!"

I saw him face off with Cage in a bottle

They went full throttle then they saw dimensionless time in all its multifarious ways of doing things

I told you Face/Off is a very good movie.

But it's stupid too, it really is

And we can go into that later

I took a jew for a date she said she hated me:

JEW G: You a sucka.

JOEY: You a bitch and a half.

JEW G: You a jew and three quarters

JOEY: Bitch and 3/5ths

JEW G: That Gonzo what race is he?

JOEY: Got a funny nose.

JEW G: Purple, right?

JOEY: I think the nose was a lighter shade of purple, ya know the rest of his skin...

JEW G: He was probably the same color under his fur.

JOEY: Who gives a fuck?

JEW G: So what do you do?

JOEY: I'm ya know a teacher, and kinda like a magician ya know in the classical since of the tradition.

JEW G: Cool.

JOEY: And you work for the marines and kill people on a regular basis, like our enemies....?

She laughs. Joe looks at her. Man she is hot, she has... I don't know she looks like Michael J Fox's sister, right? Isn't it funny how you see other people in people but you know they're a different person?

JEW G: Yeah that is weird.

She stirs her drink with her drinking straw.

JOEY: What the hell did you get?

JEW G: Roman coke.

JOEY: Cool. I can't take that stuff ya know.

JEW G: Light drinker?

JOEY: What are you an alcoholic?

JEW G: Don't tempt me.

Beat.

JEW G: So how long you been in the East Village?

JOEY: It's cool, like since 2000. Where are you? From whence do you hail?

They laugh lightly.

JEW G: I'm on the upper east side.

JOEY: Cool. I used to live there.

JEW G: Oh yeah?

JOEY: Yeah, nice right? Families. Lots of white people

JEW G: Really right? (she smiles)
