You ever see that old Chuck Jones cartoon with the squirrel who's trying to eat a coconut?
This retarded squirrel finds a cocnut and thinks that hes hit the giant acorn motherload- only he can't crack the nut. Its to hard. So he gets a jack hammer, he throws it down stairs, runs it over with a truck...nothing. Finally he pushes this monster up a gizillion stairs all the way to the top of the empire state building, and he heaves it.
Crack.
Slowly, the shell peels back... and you know whats inside? Another coconut shell.
That squirrel is in cartoon hell. That squirrel is me. Everytime I get a shot at doing right and waving the truth and justice flag andstead of gutting a guy I do it... and everytime I get the shaft for my troubles. everytime there's another coconut shell I gotta crack. But just like that retarded squirrel... in another month or so the cartoon reruns and I try again.
I know I've been a dirtbag in my life but that dosent change the fact that I still try to be better. Im giving it a shot. At the end of the day Im winning, and I wouldnt have things any differnt.
