Zappers. Use zappers.

Talking about zappers. Yesterday like an idiot I got stuck for 2 hours in
Brooklyn trying to drive around Billy Jeff's entourage (Not quite as much fun
as driving through Chinatown on Dancing Dragon Day). Cell phone goes dead in
B'klyn from SS zappers. So Billy Jeff visits our neighborhood and says he has
gone to all sorts of rough places likes Watts & Williamsburg. If you ain't
been to Williamsburg lately then you don't know what a nascent Soho looks
like. Then again, I ain't been to Watts... possibly they got used artiste
galleries, mini bookstores, tofu, cappucino bars & $35 haircuts? Between the
Poles, Italians, Hassidim, Germans, Puerto Ricans, and Jamaicans and a whole
lot of pseudo-African American automotive tekkies that hawk and spit down the
sidewalks in a herd, we got strung out midwest yuppie kids standing on
corners bangin on guitars for spare change, with holes in the butts of their
jeans, and the resident long-hair guru that says nothing, smiles and seems to
do a good floor sweep. I guess it would be something of a culture shock for
Billie Jeff to visit and maybe we do need assistance.
