Hi.

Well, it's been REAL. But alas, it's time for this persona to GO DARK
too. So... you have a good one! See you in 2007? In Boulder? For
dinner at Juanita's? My treat.

It's so funny that Joe Cosby had no idea what the 220/Crowley
connection was/is. I always thought his esoteric knowledge base was
under-stocked. Turns out it is. WAY under-stocked! And on something as
simple as 220! Ha! Ol' Reckless Joe! He'll never learn.

So... anyway... best of luck to all my friends (and enemies!) at The
Church of the Subgenius! You take care!

"So long, Crabby!"

Going Dark Too,
Bill Foster
"On The Pier"

p.s. --- Wait! Before GOING DARK for good, I want to leave you with
some of my most CLASSIC Bill Foster lines! Enjoy! And take heed,
little ones, take heed...


"I'm going home!"

"No. I stay. What do you think of that?"

"You think I'm a thief? You see, I'm not the thief. I'm not the one
charging 85 cents for a STINKING SODA. You're the thief. I'm just
standing up for my rights as a consumer."

"It says all that? Well, maybe if you wrote it in fucking English, I
would fucking understand it."

"Clear a path! I'm going home!"

"You missed. I missed too. You see? That's the concept. Take some
shooting lessons, asshole."

"Why am I calling you by your first names? I don't even know you. I
still call my boss 'Mister', and I've been working for him for seven
years, but all of a sudden I walk in here and I'm calling you Rick and
Sheila like we're in some kind of AA meeting... I don't want to be
your buddy, Rick. I just want some breakfast."

"Can anybody tell me what's wrong with this picture?"

"How are you enjoying your meal? Hey, Rick, we have a critic here! I
don't think she likes the special sauce."

"We are not the same. I'm an American and you're a sick asshole."

"I am not a vigilante. I am just trying to get home to my little
girl's birthday party and if everyone will just stay out of my way,
nobody will get hurt."

"I am just disagreeing with you. In America, we have the freedom of
speech. The right to disagree."

"Well, that's too bad. Because you know what? I think it's out of
order."

"Oh but I am. I'm on my way. I've passed the point of no return. You
know what that is? That's the point in a journey where it's harder to
go back to the beginning than to continue on to the end. It's like
when those astronauts got in trouble when they were going to the moon.
Somebody messed up or something and they had to get them back to Earth
but first they had to go around the moon. They were out of contact for
hours. Everybody waited breathlessly to see if a bunch of dead guys in
a can would pop out the other side. Well, I'm on the other side of the
moon now and everybody will have to wait until I pop out. Did you know
that in some South American countries it's still legal to kill your
wife if she insults you?"

"What are you trying to do? Kill me with a golf ball? It's not enough
you have all these beautiful acres fenced in for your little game, but
you gotta kill me with a golf ball? You should have children playing
here, you should have families having picnics, you should have a
goddamn petting zoo. But instead you've got these stupid electric
carts for you old men with nothing better to do. Now aren't you
ashamed? What's wrong? Well, what can I do about it? Where are your
pills? Bad news. Your little car's gonna drown. And you're gonna
die, wearing that stupid hat."

"Pardon me, but that's bullshit. You see, I don't think anything's
wrong with the street! I think you're just trying to justify your
inflated budgets! I know how it works! If you don't spend the
projected amount this year, you don't get the same amount next year!
Now, I want you to admit, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE STREET!"

"I'm the bad guy? How did that happen?"
