      In furtherence to my half baked idea of a scratch’n’sniff book of the world, I have come up with some more half assed ideas on how to make a million.

      Next in line is a trading card set of evil world political figures. Like OBL, Kim, Saddam, Wolfowitz, Albright, Chuck Taylor etc. The’d be complete with kill statistics etc. Collect the set. And you could put in the completely made up figure – kinda like some sporting card sets have pretend players who have never actually played in the league. They would be the most valuable of all.

      Feel free to add to my thread of stupid ideas.

      Or how about a “rainforest furniture store?”

      “Buy now, supplies are going fast!”

      Heres a true story:

      There we were, sunny day at about 1pm, so we are drinking on this street full of people. 5 colleges in town and its family week.

      Lots of folks from Boston, NYC etc. We had been shooting pigeons all morning.

      This woman next to us, clearly from the city is feeding a pigeon. My roomate surrepticiously takes his fork, bends back the middle prongs , leaving the two outside ones intact.

      He throws a piece of bread down and the woman thinks “Oh the nice drunk is feeding my friend the pigeon!”

      He stabs the pigeon with hte fork and its trying ot fly away with the fork haning out of its back. Everyone is stunned and staring at us.

      As if on cue, the waitress had arrived with another round right when he did it. She is stunned to and my roomate looks up wiht slurred speech and says:

      “Waitress; there’s a pigeon on my fork!”

      We had to leave!

      I think that would make a cool T Shirt.

      The degradable ammunition thing has actualy been done. Some guys from Australia invented it and it even comes in funky colours like bright green and yellow! Obviously hasn’t taken off though.

      Rainforest furniture is a good one. My father actually bought the last pallett of Brazillian Cedar that came into Australia (legally) in the 80s. Still in the garage and I have my eyes firmly on it! It would make fuckin awesome looking furniture. There is a shop down the road from me that imports Indonesian furniture – wild looking stuff like seats chruned out of tree roots etc. Very cool.

      What about depleted uranium radios tha never run out of juice!?

      Haiti:

      The great smell of roasted corn next to a pile of dried sewerage.

      In SoHo in NYC there is a Rainforest furniture store that sells planks of trees from Costa Rica that look like “natural” coffee tables..bark and all..for $20,000 USD.

      I told a visiting friend of mine from San Francisco today that I ate whale in Norway and she said “did you feel guilty?” and I said “No, because it is Dolphin-Safe”

      In ecuador there were a bunch of tie dyed T shirt wearing eco types so I asked the waitress for dolphin. She didn’t blink and said they didnt have any so I re-ordered. It made them wonder if they ever did serve dolphin there though! LOL

      yes, degenerate SOB that I am, I’m convinced that the only way to make a pile is to be some kind of Hugh Hefner entrepeneur, but pornography and pimphood are not my style, something more subtle. One idea I had was a barber shop with all female attendants clad in Victoria secret lingere, nothing other than haircuts or a shave mind you, and please behave like gentlemen, but guys would pay plenty for it.

      The other idea was sort of a calendar with scantily clad females from around the worlds danger areas sporting various weapons used by rebel groups, Like if Jefe could get the FARCETTES to pose for a April or May spread wearing daisy duke jungle fatigues and bandoleros of M 60 ammo criss crossed over the right places. Gordon Liddy is doing something like this with bikini clad gals sporting various guns.

      Yeah right dream on and I should keep playing the lottery.

      The Rat’s Cross elevated your standing which was already good. The barber shop is good. They had something like that right off post. It had a “massage room.” Never had to bitch at the troops about fresh haircuts anyways!

      Now the calander idea. I have such a picture of some “Farcettes.” Rob; can we somehow post it on here?

      Spamhog, you’ve got mail!

      Actually, I was gonna try the barber shop thing, had a great place next to a nice hotel frequented by foreigners and all but couldn’t get any female barbers, strange as it may seem, oh you can get plenty of beauticians but licenced lady barbers is a rarity here, shame, I had a few perfect size sixes lined up but so it goes, somebody ought to try this in the US, also how about lady dental hygenists in the same get up, I figure nobody likes to go to a dentist but if the proper eye candy was around guys would be stopping in for cleanings at least.

      also Thanx Jefe for the Farcettes, you gotta figure out a way to market that hoss.
