(Last) Stand on Zanzibar
You don't know
You don't care
You can't see me
Anywhere . . .
Hey
Well, Bill's all shot up (got my last boosters last week) and
visa'd up, and ready to invade the Dark fucking Continent (still got
to get a script for malarone, the anti-malaria pills, should be able
to get one at Health Plus according to Mike, one of he guys going on
the trip). This trip should be a hell of a lot of damn fun, I get to
make my legit (that means I keep my pants on) acting debut, and I am
so much about that it's not even funny, some of it opposite one of
Danny's friends, who according to him is one of the most famous
actresses in Tanzania, which is very cool- I don't know how famous
that actually makes her, but so what- then off on a six day safari out
onto the Serengeti, where we'll be checking out, among other things,
Ngorgoro Crater, and Olduvai Gorge (I'll see if I can find some
fossils to bring back, or for you Creationists, some of whatever you
think that stuff is), and some lake I forget the name of, where I hope
to borrow a rifle from one of our guides and blow the brains out of at
least one crocodile, hopefully a damn big one.
The script- MY script- for the DF scenes in Africa are already
written (unlike the Prague semi-debacle) and have passed muster with
Mr. Boyd, in fact he was very complementary, he said one scene in
particular was very "touching". Okay. And while I'm willing to admit
the DF's origin bears some resemblance to that of a certain great
white ape, I see it as homage, not plagiarism. At least it's not an
homage to Congo Bill, that'd suck ferociously.
(YEAH. ESPECIALLY SINCE THAT'D MAKE ME CONGORILLA),
Exactly.
I've been working some with Ritchie, getting him to help with me
the translation of some of the dialog into K'Swahili, which is what
they speak in Tanzania (what's the difference between Swahili and
K'Swahili? Beats the fuck outta me, bwana), it's been going like this-
B: Okay, translate, "I'm gonna stomp your mother fucking head into
library paste, you goddamn piece of shit."
R: We, uhm . . . we don' talk like dat, mon.
B: Yeah, but I do.
I leave Monday morning (the 16th) to fly to Dulles, to fly to
Amsterdam (8 hour flight) to then fly to Dar es Salaam (10:30 hour
flight). I can't fucking wait (not the plane rides, those I'm
dreading, but the trip itself). I'll be back at Yeager at 8:35 pm May
31st for those of you wanting to be there to throw streamers at me or
whatever.
So, what's been up with Bill lately?
The site continues to draw a lot of responses, like I've said
previously, I don't know if it's the hot weather or what, you'd think
people'd be out doing fun stuff instead of sitting in front of the
computer, but as we all know, Bill can't figure people, especially
women, especially good looking women that he's attracted to, so- lotta
comments on the match photos in last issue, from awesome, to funky
(funky? is that good funky, or bad funky?) to obscene, which I think
is a bit much. I think the thing that disturbs most people about them-
and even people who liked them, like Danny, said they found them
disturbing- is the expression on Unholy's face. This isn't some guy
who's selling a fake punch to the tater, this is a guy who's genuinely
hurt, and you can see it.
I stopped by to see him a couple days after the match, cos I was
honestly concerned about him- small fucking world, he lives in the
same house Joe and Laura did from '80 till '84, he opens the door and
I blurt, "I've had sex in your shower"- Loretta and I spent the night
with Joe and Laura for some reason, back in the day, and ended up
getting it on in the shower, have I ever mentioned I MISS THOSE DAYS-
and he looked like he'd not only been hit by a bus, but dragged behind
it. His chest was all stippled with tack holes, his eyes were black
and his nose all swollen and purple, his lower lip all puffed out, and
those nasty, nasty lacerations on his forehead- he really should have
gotten them stitched- were seeping yellow/clear serum. He looked like
something from Dawn of the Dead. I wish I'd gotten a picture.
He was in great spirits, kept thanking me for the match, Jesus,
dude, whatever. Next time I'll kill ya, make you really happy.
Speaking of blood, I saw this in the newspaper a while back and was
actually going to mention it then, cos it just flat boggled my mind,
but then by the time I next got around to doing a newsletter I'd
forgotten the guy's name, but then I saw it on the wall of Allegra's
cubicle the other day when I was up at ZMM (some people have to go
there every day, ha), I never made the connection with the name, but
her dad Clarence "The Human Pincushion" Plumley has donated an
incredible 41 gallons of blood- which she says is now up to around 43.
Dear Lord. Makes my piddling 4 gallons seem like a drop in the blood
ocean (Lets Surf The River of Blood, great song, great title). I'm
fucking impressed, Clarence, keep up the good damn work.
And before we leave correspondence, I got a pissy e-mail from
someone I actually know, not some anonymous reader, who sussed out
what the solicitation for people to stick needles in my ass was all
about (yeah, and how hard was that for you to figure out, like you're
a fucking genius or something?), here's how I see it, call it cheating
(and all the other nasty things you called it) that you want, the
bottom line is that it's not going to be the drugs lifting the
weights, I'M LIFTING THE FUCKING WEIGHTS. Let me say that again, I'm
still the one lifting the fucking weights. So fuck you. No, wait, did
I say, fuck you? I meant, FUCK YOU.
People been complaining about no funny Bill's Dad stories in a long
time, well, he hasn't been funny in a long time. This past winter took
a lot out of both my parents, aged them quite a bit, internally,
anyway. My Dad's finally starting to act old, he just doesn't have
that spark anymore that he's had all my life. It makes me really sad,
but I don’t know what can be done about it until Joe finally builds me
that damn time machine.
My Dad has started his crazy cooking stuff again, so he is feeling
some better. I stop by the other morning and he's already pulling some
goop out of the refrigerator-
Dad: Try this.
Bill: What is it?
D: (unpronounceable sound) chicken.
B: WHAT is it?
D: (unpronounceable sound) chicken.
B: That's what I thought you said. And what planet do they eat this
on?
D: China.
A couple days later he offers me some Fiery Taco Bake.
B: I'm not liking that "fiery" part.
D: It's not that bad.
B: I've told you at least ten million times I can't eat spicy food
anymore. It destroys my stomach.
D: You destroyed your stomach with all that drinking you used to do.
B: USED to do? Anyway, I don’t want any.
D: Go ahead and try it.
B: I don't want to.
D: Just one bite.
B: I DON'T WANT TO.
He starts looking all mad and hurt, Jesus-
B: All right. One bite.
D: How is it?
B: Other than the time I accidentally drank that lava, this is the
hottest shit I've ever had in my mouth in my fucking life. I can't
even swallow it.
D: I knew you'd like it if you tried it.
That's about as funny as it gets these days.
I did have some good eats at Joe and Laura's last week, she made
some cauliflower soup from a recipe of Rachael Ray's, it was
excellent, ditto the sun dried tomato bread she baked to go with it.
Took Al to the doctor today, the bad news is he's gonna live. Oh,
lighten up, I'm just kidding. Actually, Al's been pretty good lately,
just in time for me to leave and fuck him up again, by messing with
his schedule. I wish I'd been there the night week before last when
somehow (or so he says) a squirrel got into his bedroom. Al was quite
animated in telling the story, "The little bastard got in my closet,
climbed all up in my clothes, I got him out of there and he went under
the bed, I got him out of there and he went back in the damn closet"
and on and on, Al chasing this fucking squirrel around and around his
bedroom- "I didn't want to leave him in here, what if he wanted to
jump up in the bed with me, you ever see the teeth on those things?"
"Oh yeah, Al, they're fucking killers" I'm in tears just hearing him
tell about it, I'd have probably laughed myself into a hernia actually
seeing it.
He says he finally got it out by taking the bedroom window out of
its frame and setting it down on the floor like a ramp, and then
eventually herding the squirrel up it and back out of the window. It
may have been a damn hallucination, but if so it was a very detailed
one that he recounts consistently, so I'm more inclined to believe it
really happened, unlike the golden glowing people who used to screw
all night on the rooftop across the way a couple years ago and drive
poor Al to total distraction.
What's Bill been watching? Not a lot. The suck ass Cubs some, but I
can't really get into baseball this season for some reason. I'm
getting IFC now, which is good, I can watch the Zatoichi films if I
want, but they won't be the same as as Movie Club, I watched a
documentary on John Waters the other day that wasn't bad, he's
interesting just cos he's so fucking weird, but his movies have always
pretty much left me cold, Divine's really eating dog shit, okay, big
deal, you didn't grow up with Stevie "The Geek" Schultz (no relation
to our boy Chris, I'm sure). Speaking of, I hope he- Chris, not Stevie,
who I'm fairly certain must've died young- was able to record the
Frazetta documentary on IFC that I had to miss cos of stupid
wrestling.
Also watched Running Time, which is a pretty bland and nothing kind
of title, I think it's so called cos it's all one shot- the movie
starts and that's it, there are no cuts at all until it ends. It's
this heist caper type film, in black and white and from '97, it has
Bruce Campbell, who I like, but who will pretty much act in any damn
thing, this was good, but cut out all the Sci-fi channel dreck for me
if you would, Bruce, and some girl- Amanda, or Anita, it was one of
those double A names I think, maybe Angela- Barone, who was hot,
again, real woman hot, not Pam Anderson cartoon hot, she was cute, and
built fucking great. If you get IFC, check it out.
What's Bill been reading? Again, not much (what HAVE I been doing
lately, come to think of it?). I did read one of Sarah's books on
Celtic mythology she ordered when she was in for Spring break, all
those old myth cycles are 90% sex and gore so of course they're fun
reading. I came across this legend I was unfamiliar with, this minor
god Gwydion had this pal, who also started with a "G" but I can’t
remember, we'll call him Gus, who was all hot for this one Celtic
princess who didn't want anything to do with him. Gwydion, through raw
deceit and treachery, sets up a war between this girl's kingdom and a
neighboring one, then while all these good guy warriors on both sides
are out fighting and killing one another cos of this sneaky bastard,
there's no one left at princess's house to protect her when Gus comes
by to take her by force. Nasty fucking pair, Gus and his buddy.
This higher up god, Math (insert your own joke here about higher
Math) finds out and calls the wretched duo in front of him to punish
them. He tells them, not quite in these words, "Since you're both so
damn sexed up, you can just go off and fuck yourselves" and he turns
Gwydion into a stag and Gus into a doe and sends them off into the
woods, saying come back in a year. They come back in a year (along
with a fawn, how fucking funny) and Math says, "Nah, not yet" and
turns Gus into a boar, and Gwydion into a sow. They come back a year
later (yeah, with a litter of piglets, I'm howling here) and Math
says, "Nah, still not yet", and off they go again, one a male wolf and
one a wolf bitch. When they come back a year later with all their wolf
cubs they’re pretty much gibbering idiots, "Fuck, just KILL US,
please" and Math says, "I hope you've learned your fucking lesson". I
should think so. Irish justice, got ya.
Anyone who caught this issue's title reference to the old SF novel
by John Brunner, Stand On Zanzibar (which I'll be doing in a couple
weeks), give yourself two bonus points. It came out in '68, I read it
a few years later while still in junior high, and I couldn't make
heads or tails of it, I'd like to try and read it again as an adult
and see what I get out of it. I liked Brunner's more straight forward
stuff, like the very good The Sheep Look Up, or his early, very Brit
SF/horror novel The Atlantic Abomination (I think the DF worked him
once), the old paperback version that I had, had a killer cover.
When I started reading SF as a kid I always preferred the straight
forward stuff, to the experimental "New Wave" SF that was coming into
vogue at that time (late 60's), at that age it was gimme vintage
Heinlein (he was going all new wavey himself at the time with Stranger
In A Strange Land, et al) and Starship Troopers, goofy ass politics
and all, I was (and am) willing to forgive a lot if you're going to
tell me this tremendously exciting tale of guys in way cool futuristic
battle armor fighting big ass monster bugs. Great shit. In fact, my
main problem with the '97 movie was that great, great armor that the
ST's wore in the book was totally done away with. Fuck that.
Sarah was telling me last week about this exercise she had to do in
one of her acting classes, where you talked about your home, and she
talked about this place, which I think is pretty sad on a couple
levels, one that this double wide out in the sticks that she visits
for maybe a month and a half total during the year is what she
considers to be her home, and the fact that this place doesn't seem in
the slightest like home to me, and hasn't for a very long time. And
boy, I can tell you, one thing I haven't been doing lately is keeping
the place up, I used to kind of take pride in the place, but anymore I
don’t give even one tiny fuck. I remember last fall when Anita and
Impetuous (and of course, Mr. Peanut) came out here, they commented
that this was the tidiest bachelor's place they'd ever seen. Well, I
was admittedly trying to impress them (much good did it do me) but I
did used to keep this place up pretty well, if they could see it
tonight they'd probably go, "Jesus Christ, the man is a fucking pig."
Which I imagine they've said anyway, unrelated to my housekeeping
skills.
And this house has also been stinking lately, of sweat (I really am
working out hard again) and stale beer. Fuck.
What's Bill drinking? Just green tea. I really wanted to get into
the beer tonight, mostly so I could sleep, but I just got too much to
do tomorrow to give up the day to a hangover. I don't function well on
no sleep, but I don't function at all anymore when I'm hungover. I
think attrition is finally catching up to even a freak of fucking
nature like our boy Bill here.
Oh, for fuck's sake. I'm a lying sack of shit. I did start out
drinking green tea, hours ago, but I've been on the PBR for a while
now, ten's worth so far, and they're going down fast, so tomorrow will
just have to be however tomorrow is. Tomorrow never comes, anyway.
Just like- no, nevermind.
I haven't gotten into it much lately, cos we've gone down this path
in the newsletter many times before, but the insomnia is once again
back and kicking my ass (as it always does), I haven't slept well at
all, unless I'm pounded or exhausted, for months now.
Been having lots of bad dreams again when I do sleep, lots of
zombie dreams, I guess because I've been writing so much about them
recently, Sarah had a nightmare about her Daddy tangling with zombies
in Africa, she made me promise to take Ritchie's advice and avoid them
while I'm over there at all cost. Okay, I'll try to avoid them, but if
one starts something with ME, all fucking bets are off . . .
Some time back I made note that Pistol Pez Whatley was in bad
shape, and in need of a heart transplant. I guess he didn't get it,
cos he passed away back in January. He real name was Pezavan Whatley.
How you could be holding a baby in your arms and the first thing that
comes into your head is, "I'm going to name this child Pezavan" is
beyond me. But he was a nice guy, and now he's gone, so RIP Pezavan.
I guess it's about time to get to the wrestling portion of our
program, I suppose the biggest news is that the Death Falcon finally
got his new mask. It has a much more classic Lucha look than the old
one, no antennae or saw blades or tails hanging down the back. At
first I wasn't so sure about it, looks wise, but watching film of the
DF in action last Saturday in Martinsburg, I like it, it has that
clean, El Santo hero look to it, and the strangest thing, Danny said,
"I know it doesn’t make sense, but you look younger in that mask than
in the other one, somehow" which is so weird, cos I was thinking the
same thing.
As for how it feels, it's hot and tight, which is normally a very
good thing, but not in masks, it's going to be a bitch to work in this
summer, (in fucking deed, the DF already has 16 bookings this June
through August, not counting whatever might come in between now and
then), I think I'm going to continue to wear the old one in XMCW, and
the new one in the new feds I'll be working, like MSW, where the DF
made his debut a couple weeks ago, and where he's working again this
coming Saturday, in Mount Hope, and of course House of Pain, where
Danny and I worked last week.
"If you can't hack it, better get your jacket" House of Pain
Wrestling Federation motto.
"I can hack it. Why don't you fucking jack it?" Death Falcon Zero.
So, on to Danny and Billy's adventures in Martinsburg. As mentioned
last issue, I was a little concerned about the whole trip, Danny and I
have a tendency to bicker anyway, I could just see us sniping at one
another all weekend, nothing of the sort happened, we had a real good
time together, good for us. We stayed with his Dad, who I already
knew, I met his sister and a bunch of his Martinsburg friends, good
people, drank a bunch of beer Saturday after the match, it was fun.
First thing's first, Sarah's new wrestler boyfriend, Wes, drove the
girls up to Martinsburg so I got to spend a very nice evening with my
sweetie pies, it was great, thank you to Wes, who seems like a good
kid, he worked in the battle royal but since I was at the gimmick
table in my mask and no glasses, I couldn't tell you how he did. Danny
liked him, and Sarah took a picture of him meeting the DF that's on
the site.
And Rachie got an "A" on her French test last week, good for you,
baby, no coasting through life on just good looks for you. Although if
you can make that work for you . . .
Danny was a little nervous driving up, he'd talked to Rambo (he
runs the Fed, as well as being a worker) the night before, who'd told
him, "Yeah, I don't know how you guys work down there, but up here we
like to make it look real. We're not called House of Pain for
nothing". He'd also told Danny, "I think I'll have your boy Falcon
work Samu". This is genuine wrestling star Samu, been everywhere,
including three times as WWF Tag Team Champ, this guy is big time, and
big, 350 pounds legit, so I'm nervous as well. Although the Death
Falcon, that crazy bastard, is excited as hell, he's screaming "bring
that big fucker on, I got your fucking big time RIGHT HERE".
We get to the Armory and find out Samu has hurt his back and can't
work the DF-
(LUCKY FOR HIM. I THINK HIS BIG ASS WAS JUST DUCKING ME)
Whatever. You're gonna get your chance, big boy, just wait. Anyway,
Samu is going to come out and start some heat with me and Danny at the
gimmick table- he kept calling us Hollywood, and movie stars, hell, I
wasn't offended in the slightest, I was eating it up- then bring a
couple heels out from the back that he'd manage against us, Rambo
would then come out to manage Danny and me and we'd work a tag match.
We meet our opponents for the night, Nicholas Tide, and the Croc
Tamer, Savannah Jack. A couple of freaks and geeks, as Kevin Sullivan
would say. Tide used to be this big, Randy Savage looking guy, been
gone from wrestling about a year and a half and has only been back a
few months, while gone he lost about 50 pounds of muscle, which he
still talks and acts like he's got, and which attitude in the back got
him stiffed pretty good by the DF in the ring. Sarah took a good
picture of him getting knocked on his ass, when Danny sends it to me
I'll have Joe put it on the site. Now he looks like Butch, the kid who
always used to beat up Alfalfa on the Little Rascals, even down to the
stupid hat.
We try and talk through the match, I tell them Danny can run the
Universal spot, Savannah gives me this blank look, Tide goes "What's
that?" You know, the Universal spot, so called because EVERYONE knows
it? Shoot off, shoulder tackle, drop down, hip toss? Savannah still
looks blank (it's a look I would get used to), Tide goes, "Oh yeah. Of
course, I've never done 'em in that order before". Danny and I
exchange "Oh, for fuck's sake" looks. These guys would last about
three seconds in WV.
So I ask them what they can do. SJ says, "Not much, I'm still
green". No shit. Tide goes, "Uhm, choke, choke . . . something else .
. . choke". Great. At least he can do something.
I ask them if they know Tag Match Number 1, which of course they've
never heard of, but we set it up anyway cos it's easy to remember.
This is how it goes, in case you ever have to do a tag match with 3
other guys who don't know anything. Face 1 (DF) starts with Heel 2 (SJ).
Face 1 starts on top (which means he beats the shit out of SJ, though
I didn't phrase it that way), then tags out to Face 2 (Danny) who also
beats the shit out of Heel 2. Heel 2 then cuts Face 2 off with an
illegal move (in this case, a low blow) and tags out to Heel 1, who
then beats the shit out of Face 2. Face 2 then takes all the heat from
both Heels as they tag in and out.
Danny; I don't think I like that part.
Bill: Sorry, buddy. That's wrestling.
During the heat you work one Face hope spot and cut off, and one
false tag (which the crowd bites on every time, I love it), before the
hot tag, when Face 1 comes back in and beats the shit out of both
Heels.
D: Wait a minute. How come you get to beat the shit out of
everyone, and I get the shit beaten out of me?
B: I told you, man, that's wrestling.
Then you go to your finish, which in this case is, the Heels cut us
off, take us to opposite corners, go to shoot us off, we reverse it
and the Heels collide in center ring in what's quaintly referred to as
a train wreck (and the crowd popped like hell for this, we had a great
fucking audience Saturday night, they were way into our match), then
as Danny and I climb the ropes to work the crowd Samu comes into the
ring with a baseball bat to attack us from behind (fuck, I already
HATE being a face), he first clocks the ref (who was another genuine
fucking moron), then as he's about to hit us Rambo charges the ring
and takes the bat away from him, a second, dirty ref comes out and
sees Rambo with the bat and disqualifies the Grapes of Wrath for
outside interference. Man. The DF has been in on a ton of screw job
finishes, but this is the first time he was on the screwed end. I
don't like it.
And I'm truly going to have to work on my face attitude, I still do
all the heel moves and gestures, at one point this old man in the
front row hollers "Aren't you supposed to be the good guys?" (he had a
valid point) and I was a split second away from flipping him off when
I caught myself.
There are advantages to working face, though, all the kids coming
up to the DF at the gimmick table wanting autographs, I have to admit
I love that, sincerely.
Kid: Thanks for the autograph.
DF: You're very welcome. Thanks for coming to the show.
K: You guys are really cool
DF: I know. Is your mother here?
Kid: Yes.
DF: Is she pretty?
Danny: Cut it out.
And for all that House of Pain crap, when I can get away from the
table and go in the back to thank Tide and SJ for the match, a
wrestling tradition, and a very civilized one I think, the first thing
SJ does is run up to me and go "Man, I'm really sorry for making you
mad out there".
DF: You didn't make me mad. We're totally cool, I had fun.
SJ; Then why did you hit me so hard?
DF: I don't even remember hitting you.
SJ: When you knocked me down?
DF: The clothesline?
SJ: Yeah, that thing. (Yeah, THAT THING? Jesus Christ, who's training
this guy? Probably Steve Irwin).
DF: No, I wasn't mad at all. That's just how I do 'em.
SJ: Oh. No one around here does them that hard, that's why I thought
you were mad.
DF: Not at all.
Jeez. House of Pain my fucking eye. I didn't see very much stiff
work at all in any other matches- which were also mostly P & K, not a
lot of actual wrestling- and neither did Danny or the girls, let those
boys come down here and get in the ring with someone like Chance or
Juggs-
(OR ME).
-yeah, or the DF, and they'd be pissing their pants. We got your
house of pain right here.
But we're going back, and get this, this is fucking INSANE. Me,
Danny and Rambo are working Samu, Tide, and the crooked ref, I forget
his name, cos SJ's religious beliefs won't let him work this show, for
real, on June 16th at Legs (ahem) Gentleman's Club. Yeah, holy fuck,
they're calling it their "Adult Show" and they're having it at a
fucking strip club, they're going to have strippers come out between
the matches, what a concept, Ron Jeremy is going to be there (yick)
and they're also going to be filming a "Girls Gone Wicked"- I guess
that's one step up (or down) from "Girl's Gone Wild"-video there that
night. Robin is really not wanting Danny to do it, and she's
definitely not wanting to do it herself- she's supposed to start
managing the Grapes, in fact I think she may be coming out with the DF
this Saturday in Mount Hope- but like Danny keeps telling her, "It
going to be a fucking freak show, how can you miss that?".
I'm certainly not going to miss it. Wrestling in a fucking strip
club. The DF is going to be in pig fucking heaven.
(YEAH BOY. I BET I'LL BE SORE AS HELL THE NEXT MORNING, AND NOT
FROM THE MATCH)
Yeah, well it might be from the match, Samu is a big old boy, I
imagine he's pretty stiff without even trying, also, its going to be a
barbed wire match- and here I am trying to get out of Hardcore- where
the ropes and turnbuckles are all wrapped in the stuff. I already told
Danny I'd make him a gig cos I'm sure there's no way we're getting out
of this without juicing, it's best we do it to ourselves. I don’t know
about you, but I can do without some 350 pound Samoan trying to rip
holes in MY ass with some no doubt dull and rusty barbed wire.
Danny was really up right after the match Saturday, but the next
day he was hurting some.
D: Man, I'm sort of feeling it this morning.
B: Yeah, me too. Knocking guys down all night can really make you
sore.
D; You are such an ass.
Let me go on record here though as saying Danny acquitted himself
admirably, I was really concerned cos he hasn't been doing all that
well at training, I tried to tell him I didn't think he was ready but
he wouldn't listen, I honestly thought Saturday was going to be a case
of his mouth running away with his ass, and he was going to get hurt-
not killed hurt, but beat up hurt- or at least embarrassed in front of
his home town crowd. But he did really well, he hit all his spots,
took all his bumps, and came out of the whole thing looking really
good. So, once again, what the fuck do I know?
I think I'll close with what I thought was an amusing story related
to me in Martinsburg by Blood. He's one of Wes's trainers at EWA, and
seems to be quite a personable guy for someone calling himself Blood.
He's been good to Sarah when she's accompanied Wes to training, and
that carries a lot of weight with me.
He works mostly Hardcore, and we were exchanging Hardcore horror
stories, when he parts his hair and shows me this truly wicked scar
running almost the length of his scalp, front to back, I mean this
thing is Abdullah worthy. He tells me he was working this guy one
night, they're doing a barbed wire bat spot outside the ring, and
Blood tells the guy "Rake my head". The guy rears back and just
smashes Blood in the head with the bat, lays him out absolutely cold.
When he's revived in the back Blood's just raging at the guy, "What
the fuck's wrong with you, I said 'Rake my head'" and the guy goes
"Oh. I thought you said 'Break my head'".
Pro wrestling. Ya gotta love it.
I'm gonna go, wish me luck in Africa. And wish Africa luck with me,
seriously.
You don't know
You can't see
That you don't mean
A thing to me
Break my head. Jesus.
Later.
