last week as the Pelerin juggernaut
rolled east from Kansas City
ETCs own steamroller cella brandini flew
south to Cuba and toured the deep past
of its political mystery man if any one
man can be said to have a special
insight into this race
it is the flamboyant former senator from
Rhode Island
Kim Bo Adams Menaka a descendant of John
Quincy Adams boyhood friend of Robert
Kennedy meneka was in his youth a
confidante of many world leaders he made
himself well known in his own right as a
controversial political hepatech of the
Kennedy Nixon era turn it off mr. feller
and it is admirable nemesis mr. dicks
have in common is that they are both
uncommon ly wealthy
where's the independence there it is
well known that medica has spent the
last two decades living in self-imposed
exile in Havana Cuba what is less known
is that he served as a virtual
stepfather to the young Blake Calvin the
young makes education after he was
orphaned you know but then he broke with
you even destroyed you politically I
destroyed myself politically play only
destroyed me commercially they canceled
my syndicated radio program after his
wife bought that vast media empire I now
bombard Florida with my views this is a
microphone or an innuendo bitter I had
always encouraged Blake to be
independent and now he speaks of
revolution with a fiery zeal of the man
of the people
Blake is a David who doesn't seem to
grasp that he's become a Goliath he
knows
Jim
knows he's building me up no settin him
Amy leave off devouring that splendid
uses ticket please

lover Stradlin this here's your quote of
the day
my kind of people are not necessarily
the best people not the best people
they're not the kindest people or the
smartest people they may not even be the
most honest but they are quite simply
the people about whom there is no
question that's where we differ when the
voting public looks at me they see a man
as plain as a tree stump plainly they
don't know you know what they want to
know see God made me a man about whom
there's no question
gentlemen ladies

mother should I just fuck should I
accept just aim high dream of a
plaintiff's spend every waking moment
trying to grab that big brass ring
your persistence moves me brandini I've
never been able to resist a pretty pair
of eyes appraised at me in such
adoration is this from you
yeah sure you know 17 what does the name
Raymond Romero mean to you there was
never a whole story they have to be oh I
remember now that's coming back to them
when I was a kid that was a sled and on
the sled was the name Raymond Romero
actually telling you the truth you found
the whole kid named J is deadly serious
he was my brother
was my brother
our fathers name is William Blake
mother's name was Karina
we were born out of wedlock
about a year apart
Oh Raymond Romero
it's
and I talked to him
how did he die look
I hardly knew him
when we were little I loved him later
resistance was a reproach
is
I'm alive that's it
so why is it useful to tell me I have
never wanted to exploit my brother
I have never
I was too stupid to love him when he was
alive I'm kind of hypocrite what I've
been using now
how did he die this is Pelerin asked me
to inform you she returned to the yacht
it's about kids on
that's the story
you sure you got it covered yep hey
Jerri

a hidden brother is casting a peculiar
shadow over the governor's race corporal
Raymond Romero missing in Vietnam since
1973 is apparently Blake Kellerman's
long-lost biological brother today rival
candidate Homer Dix is accusing color
and of treating this forgotten hero like
a dirty secret I'm gonna hold a press
conference tonight at six o'clock at
which time I will reveal to the voting
public some new life to be shed on the
character of Blake Pelerin man so far
shown little respect for that unknown
soldier and he has great sacrifice
reaction from the colorant camp was
Swift
I don't know what to expect mr. day
excited to would like to know what he's
talking about as regards my brother I
gave a lengthy interview just recently
the cella brandine has a news flash I
wanted to tell you but you don't read
you definitely do you think Diggs has
caught him in a lie no that means too
clever to be to have that way he only
tells precisely that fraction of the
truth which will allow the listeners
imagination to lie for him no there's a
much deeper angle here a sexy angle
sexting the sense of sex or sex scene
the sense of news that sells I'll die
and we're dead I'm fucking dead
that just yeah do you remember a
compromising photo of Homer Dix this
good old boys we kept it in a black file
folder labeled Homer's Odyssey I know I
know a thing of crooked beauty but it's
not home they found the real guy down on
the Bootheel I talked to him looks just
like Homer is not oh my that's where you
can and I want you to doctor just a
little all that fancy software we bought
you you know how Homer has little scars
across three fingers on his I never
looked at his hands Blake normal guys
look at each other's cars are you on the
bus or off the bus I further is my
destination baby
I knew both brothers in school they put
himself into a lot of pressure we had a
huge rage to succeed he was my best
friend we were always in a contest to
see who could head up the most
after-school clubs but Billy I hardly
knew nobody knew it's amazing how he
turned out considering it I was in
trouble and don't use that in your piece
don't worry this is the back but the
candidate himself is very frank about
he's so-called trouble the past Greg
grew to hate his guts
how so well Billy I've never get used to
calling him Blake Billy was a huge
source of embarrassment to Ray
you'd find him sleeping outdoors curled
up in the auditorium his feet are always
filthy
I hardly ever wore shoes he disappeared
for months at a time and then show up
out of the blue
and something I shouldn't have seen tell
me what you saw ray was a great guy I
would hate if this were the only
impression that people had of it tell me
what you saw it was like something out
of a nightmare I've I've seen fights
I've been in fights but this is the
closest I've ever come to witnessing an
attempted murder but I can tell you
Billy didn't deserve something like that
okay thank you when was the last time we
talked to Blake Oh God
years and years I think the last time
that I spoke to Ray was when his number
came up
number draft Vietnam War
ancient history now
well that's cute because that standard
practice in America back in the 50s it
was rusty how did the past not to be
worked on wall well the numbers were
based on birthdays see these two guys
were born in the 50s hmm
Romero Raymond won 31 October 1953 this
poor bastards birthday at number 10

forgot to tell you she wanted an
interview I talked to your old school
film maxy maxy you talked to paksy
backseat beragon premier he says he's a
one brother beat the other nearly to
death very early one morning
I mean I remember the incident just
amazed anybody saw it her it's brown the
baybridge gray bead Billy

beating your brother
let me ask you something
what is the worst thing that you've ever
done the worst thing the dirtiest thing
that part of you which if you revealed
it would alter every opinion everyone
ever had about you might not get you
arrested but it would cost you most of
your friendships and maybe even your job
I have no such thing in my best
I was very mean to a sweet mother once
keep it
it sure as it belongs to you whatever it
is
among a few things really belong to a
person that is one
you don't have any one day you're not
married engaged no timing you're not my
type but I doubt I will ever have to
worry you too much of a misogynist I
don't hate my wife
I've done hateful things especially to
my wife to my brother but uh
what I hate I suppose is
I'm all for love I'm all for people
being
in love but
it's not in me to receive it I don't
think I'll make a fair show of giving it
unnecessary receiving it is too
overwhelming to people
everyone needs life I hate because I
need it
I'll bet you and I are alike that way
I'm sure you love that man that you lost
but it's easy enough to love the dead
isn't it you don't have to endure the
burden of them loving you back
