FADE IN:
BETH checks stock in display cases and rearranges things in preparation for their 10:00 a.m. opening. GG enters from the backroom carrying a mug of coffee and a fat pot cookie.
He points at the case she's working in.
GG
That muffin's upside down.
BETH
Our clients will never know the
difference-or care if they did know.
GG
But it's a matter of aesthetics, of...

EXT. DAY.
EARL approaches the Emporium and lurches into a MAN coming toward him. They collide and EARL spins around and faces the way he'd been going.
He raises his cane and barks at his unseen assailant who stops and looks on wonderingly as EARL threatens empty space.
EARL
(scowling)
Hey! Why don't you look where you're
going, buddy? Why, for two cents I'd
giv...
FADE IN:
EXT. DAY. Shot of Grandpa Ganja's Emporium. GG sweeps the sidewalk, nods to passerby, turns and starts inside.
INT. Usual scene. Smoke eddies, CHESS PLAYERS in inaction, BETH at the table chats with 80-year-old CLARA with walker. CLIENTS at tables smoke, drink coffee, eat cookies. GUITARIST strums softly in a corner. GG crosses with broom and goes into backroom.

BETH is putting fresh coffee out with a box of regular cookies.
BETH
You're late. I thought you forgot today's
seminar.
GG
Grandpa Ganja never forgets. I just had
to go back for my demos.
BETH
Because you forgot th...

Getting toward noon. Sunny, bright. EARL approaches the club with the aid of his red-tipped white cane.

EXT. DAY. SHOT OF POT CLUB.
A legal medical marijuana dispensary in a L.A. storefront building in a rundown part of the city. There's a Hells Angels club on one side with bikes in front, a bar on the other side, etc. The window has posters of pot leaves, tokers, etc., and a large sign overhead reads Grandpa Ganja's Empor...
Lust Busters is a dynamic tale of sex and runaway libidos, unparalleled orgies on a grand scale, exorcism and mysterious strangers, FBI Special Squads, and all branches of the armed forces engaged in a dramatic clash with good against evil and much more. It's also a love story...depending on how you define love, of course. It's even alleged to be funny.
And it has more sex in it by actual count...
NB-America has lost its way and we'll never find it again without a revolution, maybe something along the lines of what I propose in TYRANNICIDE where a first-rate scheme is outlined that cannot fail to impress politicians nationwide.
Here are two dandy reviews by a pair of very discerning and intelligent reviewers.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Recommended by habeas corruptus & Robert Steele,...
Beware the De-Ballers with their sharp scissors! Stand tall like real men everywhere, strike a blow for machismo, respect and honor. Look like a real man even if you aren't one by being duplicitous, cunning, and deceitful. (All traits copied from women, of course.)
Adopt a swagger, wear macho clothes, smoke cigars, grow a beard, sign up with the Hells Angels, practice spitting, say no to N.O.W.
NB-Here it is, Grandpa Ganja's classic work on the noble marijuana bush wherein he discusses how to grow pot, buy it, steal it, smoke and/or eat it, hide it from jackbooted cops and even includes its history, medical uses, myths, etc. GMH will add a touch of class to your personal library and it makes a great gift for fellow-tokers.

I first heard of Zen during WWII when I was a mere stripling, though all I knew about it was that you could shoot arrows like William Tell if you were high on the stuff. Since it was tied to Japan and this was WWII, Zen wasn't real popular with most Americans, anyway, so I gave it a miss.
Then, I learned Zen was about more than archery, that it was free but very expensive, easy but hard, clea...
I was ten-years-old when WWII started so I grew up with war movies and propaganda that made it look cool if you were a ten-year-old idiot. I figured I'd join the Marines and be a hero like John Wayne but the war ended before I could sign up.
Unwilling to wait longer, I quit school at sixteen (a step ahead of the expulsion squad) in '48 and joined the Marines to see the world. So they sent my...
A review of GWFT by C. D. Phillips (Oakland, TN USA)
If you teach high school you need to read this book. OK, so it is meant to be funny and might actually offend at times but just to think from this viewpoint is something every teacher should be required to do. Very highly recommended.

When I was a newly arrived refugee from the Rust Belt I thought some of the San Diego regulars might be interested in my first impressions of their excellent city. Then again, some may not.
In any case, it is an excellent city. The scenery is remarkable and the climate is nearly perfect. The ocean is conveniently near at hand, mountains ring the place, and the flora and fauna are the e...
After teaching in the public schools of Detroit for three decades, I retired to move west and launch a new career in the writing trade. I actually took early retirement, a move prompted by a "student" who threatened to get a gun and blow my @%&* brains out. The issue was finally decided when his mother was called to school for a conference about the threat and the vicious old bat offered to...
I see where a recent TV show implied one could avoid heart attacks from eating too many fats by drinking a given amount of red wine along with each meal as they do in France.
Apparently, the French suffer fewer heart attacks than we do even though they consume red meat and rich sauces and other cholesterol-laden substances in unheard of amounts. They claim the average Frenchman eats a ras...
I had an uncle once who was employed as a missionary. He spent half his life trying to convert the good natives of Brazil to his own particular brand of foolishness. All told he saved a total of six souls from perdition and drove countless thousands of others into various enemy camps with his incessant pestering and nagging.
One day a band of would-be converts in a little village on the bank...
I love science. Of course, I never studied much of it in school because the stuff's too hard, but I still like it. Especially astronomy.
The astronomers are on the verge of a major breakthrough in their study of the universe's eventual fate and I'm all agog at the prospects. They've already figured out how it began, of course.
All the matter in the universe was compressed into a sing...
Query: Should we have capital punishment across the land? Answer: Of course.
Every state should implement a sound program of capital punishment and it should do so without delay. Contracts should be let at once to build a gallows in every community and a fresh supply of sturdy Manila hemp ordered in and dispatched to wherever it'll do the most good. Hangmen should be put on retainer.
