Crazy 50 Something Santa Monica Guy with a Message

Watch out for this one. He looks harmless. Like he’s going to cut loose a little and sing a mindless song for the drunken masses. You’re so excited he chose American Pie. You’re waiting to join him at the chorus and BAM! He’s changed the words on you! The whole song has been turned into a political parody about 9-11. “The Day the Towers Fell” he croons. He heads into the verse with new fervor and lyrics ranging from Obama to Hummer’s in Iraq.

I don’t know how this gentleman does it. But he finds a way to connect four years of
conspiracy theories into 6 verse of American Pie! (God, that song is long). He’s not just making it up on the spot. This guy spent months, maybe years writing and memorizing these alternative lyrics and he makes sure to spread his word every night to a bunch of UCLA Sophomores who can’t hear a damn word he’s singing. This guy could be your father or your uncle. He looks completely normal. But he probably lives in some remote part of Malibu on some solar powered ranch/ mobile home and spends his day sending out far- fetched mass e-mails about how the government is corrupt.

God help me if he I ever end up on his mailing list.
