Writing Assignment#1

Rate this Entry
Ok, I've got one for you. Sort of a truth or dare. Your assignment, should you accept it...

1) Walk into a biker bar. Alone. Speak to no one until spoken too. After 10 minutes of conversation (no less) you have to...ask where a person could get themselves a passport from another nation.

I did it a couple of weeks back, and was amazed at the results. I got two job offers (strictly off the books), an offer to be allowed on someones property (according to him there is a minefield near his house) I pass., I had someone read my palm, and later I was stuck in the mens room while 4 big bikers smoked crack. You know how hard it is to get 4 big bikers to stop from forcing you take an illegal drug.? Its really quite easy, just tell them you're on parole. Of course, then you better have some good BS to tell them, if they ask. I didn't get an answer to my question, but I didn't want one. I was just curious to see what would happen. I figure there is a story in there, or some of it will go into a story somewhere along the way. JUST SAY NO TO DRUGS!

...this blog will self destruct in 5 seconds.

    i'm not sure about that one B-Mental. you say that in a biker bar in jersey some big fella with whiskers will go into Soprano mode on you.


    "It's over, capiche? Over and done. You call, or go anywhere near him, or his family, and they'll be scraping your nipples off these fine leather seats. And here's the point to remember: My face will be the last one you'll see. Not Tony's. We understand each other? It won't be cinematic..."

    well, you never know until you try. I was getting all sorts of advice. The trick is to not speak to them until they speak to you. You also have to know how to read people. I'm gonna assume you would recognise that person for what they were. You have to be quick on your toes, gotta be able to answer questions and trick questions correctly. Another trick is to ask a question that they won't want to answer and when they hesitate...you answer the question by saying how you would do it. You better be right.
