Please don't let there be shit in my underwear. This was my mantra during the 7 minute walk. I was wearing long johns over the briefs. When I pulled them down to sit on the toilet I could see the turd meat spread wide throughout the fabric. It's not really a huge amount, maybe just a pellet, bon bon sized, but during the walk it spreads through the cheeks and gets mushy. So while sitting on the toilet I had to take my shoes off, carefully, then the long johns just to get the undies off. I put them in the sink and proceeded to take shit number two for the day. A lot of it backed up. I cleaned the undies as best I could and sprayed them with peroxide. There will be a light stain, I can tell. But I'll be the only one seeing it so I really don't care. What a fucking chore though. Time
consuming too.

Not enough routine I suppose. Anyway, I did it again - shit my pants - and no matter how bad it gets (well, I suppose there IS a limit), I am not going to see any doctors about it because my faith in them is shot. I washed my hands really good after cleaning out the undies and am wondering if shit might be a deterrent to the Corona virus. Could be. Up in the morning, wash your hands with shit, then rinse thoroughly. The protective qualities will be assimilated through the pores just enough to stave off the virus while your hands are devoid of stench and ready for nose picking if needed.

I knew a nut job girl named Vicky who has taken shits on Hollywood Blvd. One night I had her over to my place for some drinks. She was a drinker. So was I. She was a street person but didn't smell. As a female she probably had access to things. We messed around a bit, can't remember much. The next day I woke up in bed with her about to walk out the door. "I cleaned your cat box", she said.

I thanked her and went back to bed. A short time later there was loud knocking on my door. It was the apartment manager. "What's all that stuff on the walkway beneath your window?" I was 3 floors up. I told him I didn't know and went to the window to check it out. I could see the debris was beneath the kitchen window which is where I kept the cat box. Vicky had dumped the entire box of crap and litter out the window. She did not do it to be mean, at least I don't think she. It was just the Vicky version of cleaning out a cat box.

How about a long hose running from the ass hole all the way down the pants leg? Shit as you walk. If anybody says anything I'll tell them I just stepped in dog shit. This is an invention waiting to happen. Fuck the diapers, I don't think I'd ever go that route. And oh my God, please, the colostomy bag - I don't want to go there. But there's got to be a way to take a secret shit while on the move when the need strikes. Where is Fauci and the rest of the science community when we really need them?

At what time did people stop shitting in the open? Medieval times, Roman? Maybe the Flintstones time? Well it is about time we went back to our natural ways. Let the shit go free.

Back to my favorite topic. There will be good job openings for sure. Shit sweepers. It is interesting, your question about when people stopped shitting in the open. My guess is that humans have always wanted privacy when pissing or shitting, but it was not always possible and for many it is still that way today. It would be hard to implement a free wheeling turd release policy. I think it would have to start on a local level. Some small town, really small, where shitting in the open is encouraged. People drive through and are astonished at how clean the town is. They see janitor type people all over the place. The streets are clean. They don't know why, but soon they learn. The streets of most towns are always filthy beyond the desired limit. Why? Because they aren't filthy enough for everyone to raise a ruckus over it. What we need is more filth to get more people involved. Sometimes to clean something really well you need to lay down some filth to give you an idea of where you're at. Like sweeping up dust on the kitchen floor - sometimes you loose your place because you can't see the pile. You need more dust to make it visible. It is the same with city sidewalks. Make shitting on the streets legal and ultimately the streets will be cleaner than ever. Oh, a slight odor might linger as a reminder, but that's part of the allure. Sort of like Hershey Pa where the whole town smells like chocolate. Pleasant. I believe the same can be true of shit that has been properly and regularly cleaned. A faint aroma of foulness can be a pleasant thing. Trust me. I nose what I be talking about.

I would imagine well-to-do areas could afford shit sweepers, but people
living in poorer areas such as the South Bronx would need to employ good
old-fashioned pooper scoopers. Then the problem becomes what to do with
the little bags. Not many public garbage cans in those areas, and I
can't imagine negroes placing the bags in their pockets until they can
dispose of its' contents at home. The South Bronx, Washington Heights,
and a few areas in Brooklyn already smell like shit, so aroma wouldn't
be an issue.

In all fairness to the poor folks of which at times I've been one, the litter you see in their areas does not come exclusively from them. I know because when I drove a cab and had something I wanted to toss out the window I would always wait till I got to a shitty area to
throw away. I know I can't be alone.

I don't believe everything I read. But if something makes sense, especially in an interesting way, even if it's not true I tend to go for it. I read that the streets of New Delhi, India are among the cleanest in the world, but also the poorest. People are so poor they scavenge all the way to the end. Litter is gold to some people. I'm not sure I totally believe the story even though I want to because no matter how deep the cleaning there is always more filth on the way. But it is interesting. "Hey Sid, forget about hiring street cleaners. Let's just make the poor people poorer until all they have to eat are the remnants of each other's scavenge."

"But Sid, how about shitting? If they're eating out of dumpsters at some point they're going to have to shit. Who's going to clean up the shit?"

"You're not listening, Lou. I'm saying if we make them poor enough they'll look at turds the way we look at a filet mignon."

I have told this to Ollie a million times but wonder if he isn't agreeing just to shut me up. So now I'm going to tell you. From driving a cab - I was all over the place - many ghettos, some larger than known cities - I came to know that if all the ghettos and shit spots of the US were rolled up into one city it would dwarf L.A. and NYC combined. The ghettos are spread out enough that not everyone sees them. I would guess that if all the ghetto and shit spots of our country where rolled up into one they'd fit in a state the size of Kansas. I was going to say Texas but didn't want to go overboard with it. It would be the biggest city in the world though.

I spent my life trying to stay out of the ghetto but the ghetto keeps getting bigger. I will lose.

America has sissy ghettos. If you wanted to see a real ghetto, you had
to live in Poland in the early 1940s. Times were dangerous then.
Hundreds of people were dead, many had been shot or hanged You've seen
the pictures of how skinny the people were. In Williamsburg, all the
skinny people I see are crack addicts. So I'm guessing there must have
lots of crack-heads back then. Apparently if people were willing to go
through all that shit, it must have been some bad-ass rock they had out
there.

I believe there have been improvements in some ways world wide or with so-called civilized society in general, but as a rule I think it's worse today with everything going faster and faster like a spinning top about to explode. Be honest, if you had to, would you rather walk through the Warsaw Ghetto or South Central L.A.? I think I know the answer. I tell this to people who go to movies and bitch about them not being "real enough." I tell them, "You want reality? Find the nearest American ghetto, park your car, and take a walk through it - you'll get realism in a hurry." Same thing when I lived in Hollywood and drove the cab. I'd pick people up and they were always disappointed. Hollywood where I lived was not very touristy. Just the names of celebrities on the sidewalk and that's about it - back then. I used to tell the tourists, 'You want to see stars? Wait till after dark and take a walk down anyone of these sides streets. You'll see stars alright."

I lived in LA for 22 years and never saw a star. Maybe an extra or two.

> I lived in LA for 22 years and never saw a star. Maybe an extra or two.

Where I lived in Hollywood I saw well known celebs or the past every day with many of them living in old rent control buildings near Hollywood and Vine which was well known but had deteriorated from it's glory days with all aspirants moving to West Hollywood and the Strip. I liked the old part. I'd see well known comics all the time strolling the street. They were not swamped, even the good ones. I saw nothing touristy about it. Hollywood had different parts. I did the extra thing. Didn't care for it. Very boring. Very low pay, but I needed it. I also could have made it a steady living for higher wages as they asked for me by phone several times to appear as a cop (I'm white and I had the look). But even so it still would have been a job leading to nowhere, so I don't care. Very rare, nearly impossible for extras to get anywhere in the screen business except for higher paying more steady extra work. But it's still work. Anyway, I sed to see lots of known people, even lived in the same cheap buildings with some of them. Some up and comers who were financed by their parents I guess. Patrick Duffy lived in one of the buildings I lived in. I didn't even know who he was, someone had to tell me. There were others but it's not important, and even if it is I would prefer to pretend it it's not.

Duffy Ducks brother

> Who's Patrick Duffy?

Some clown who later got a regular role on the TV show Dallas of which I have never watched a full episode. These guys would usually stay for a year at most. Sort of like the jobs they claim to have had later, after they 'make it' and are invited to do talk shows, talking about how they waited tables, which they did for one summer to appease their parents into sending them more money to live on. I think Duffy's parents were actually murdered, I remember reading. He and his wife lived down the hall and were into chanting to the box on the wall. My girlfriend would go down to visit with them and she got into the chanting thing too, for a while. Only years before we were hitch hiking locally and got picked up by a young guy and girl who told us they were having a party later that night - and "Would you like to come", and we said yes. When we got there it was an assemblage of chanters.. We joined in, at the same time ridiculing it. Funny that only a short time later my girlfriend would get into it. Then years later she found Christ. I guess we really never know what people are looking for.

We need a code. Some basic rules to go by. Something that makes sense out of a nutty world. People who do not have this are called politicians.

He's gotta be out of his fucking mind. Is this the kind of life you want

I'm not sure I know what you mean. I can see people hanging on to a religion, or just rolling with one from childhood on. But to flit from one to the other, there is something sick about that. Of course we are all sick in our own way, so I'm not casting stones. I don't think spending one's entire life looking for the right religion helps make sense out of a nutty world..

I aint crying about any of it. I think it's funny. Also, I don't ridicule people for their religious beliefs, I merely don't entirely believe they actually believe in them. I know I'm right, so I won't argue. I only argue when I'm not certain of my own position. I believe - wait, I know! - that everyone on earth is an agnostic varying on the scale from almost total believer to almost total non believer with most hanging around the middle of the scale. Also, when it come to religion, which I see as idiotic, in an odd way I have more respect for the ones who cling to religions that are really harsh and demanding. Like your Filipino guy nailing himself to the cross every year. Yeah, I'll agree he's nuts. But maybe doing this once a year keeps him from slipping even further into insanity.

Also, I'm getting sick of you Jews putting down Christians as fanatics all the time when you know damn well your own people are pretty way out there too. In fact, they started it. They are to blame for all the ills of the world. Ok, I don't really mean that. But it could be true.

Someone is to blame. And when I find them I will ask them for a job.

I have nothing against most Christians. It's those "Jesus love you"
assholes I want to avoid. I don't like being around those Hasidic rabbis
who spin live chickens around their head either. All sects or cults have
their crazies. Hang out with the Islamic crowd and you may wind up being
decapitated. Give me the agnostic majority.

He loves you but does he find you doable?

I just called Skyving because the games are on tomorrow and I had a bunch of missed calls from him and others during my valium-hazed hiatus from active life. He said he couldn't talk long, he was just pulling into the parking lot for work. For a split second it got me, I couldn't figure out what he meant by work. At first I thought poker, which is really at the moment recreational for Leif. Of course he meant the local comedy club where he works on stuff and also gets some paying gigs, MCing, etc. But at his age - our age! - I just couldn't make sense of it at first. When I hear work I picture a factory. Drudgery, tedium, lots of clock watching. I suppose that could be a comedy club too. Anyway, I told him the way he said he had to be at work confused me for a split second. He thought it was funny too. But really, easy to say, not so easy to do - at least for me - maybe the time has come for Leif to stop thinking about comedy as work. Put less into it. Who knows, he might get more in return.

Who the fuck knows?

Yes, it's all around us same as politics and other media bullshit that seems unavoidable - but the truth is it can be avoided. But you have to go all the way. You can't pick and choose. You can't say one religion is more fanatical that another. No matter how they look on the outside you have to assume they're all a bit nuts. But then to be fair you also have to admit that you are a bit nuts yourself. But as for me, I can laugh at religion but don't waste much time doing it. It bores me just like politics, kind of the same thing actually.
