A typical day at work for the village idiot of Las Vegas..Part 3..

"Eazy-E what the hell is going on?" How many people are familiar with the old school rap group N.W.A or its founder Eazy-E? They're old school, to me at least. Anyways, if they ever had an Eazy-E look-a-like contest in Las Vegas? I'd  recommend that my friend from work Marcus enter the competition. "Hey Eazy is it true that N.W.A is getting back together for a reunion tour?" In real life that would be impossible since Eazy-E died a long time ago, but nonetheless I figure Marcus could step in and fill the vacuum. All we would have to do is convince Dre, Ice Cube, MC Ren, and Yella to go along with the idea. Something tells me that's not going to happen:(

"What's up Vanilla Ice? Are you getting a lot of surveys?" Vanilla Ice is the nickname he's given me. At the time we were on break from taking political surveys at our job. This kid has Eazy-E down to a science. He was wearing sunglasses, an L.A. Kings baseball hat, a plaid shirt, and baggy pants. Shit, even his hair had Gerry curls. "Marcus how many people have told you that you look like Eazy-E? Damn boy, your a spitting image of him." I know I'm not the only guy who has noticed the resemblance. I've heard a couple other people at work call him Eazy-E as well. I then added this to my question. "Where you from fool? Compton?" For those of you familiar with N.W.A? That line was a staple in a lot of their raps..

"No, I'm not from Compton. I grew up in the Valley, but my mother is from Compton, and no she never knocked boots with Eazy-E." Eazy-E is from Compton, his mother is from Compton. I was starting to see a correlation.."Are you sure that Eazy and your mother never crossed paths? Hell you even sound like him." This kid is really good natured, so I decided to tease him a little more. A lot of people would get upset if you accused them of not knowing who their daddy was. It was obvious that Marcus relished the fact that he was a spitting image of Eazy-E. You could tell by the way he dressed, talked, and acted.."Bust a rhyme for me Eazy!" He had the appearance down to a tee. Now it was time to call him out on his rap skills.

Marcus then went into his rendition of 'Hotel, Motel, Holiday Inn'..I'll be the first to admit that he wasn't half bad. He wasn't as good as the original,  but still it was kind of like standing next to a ghost of him.."Alright Eazy, I'll catch you around." Break was over and it was time to head back to the political survey world. Thanks to Marcus, I had 'Hotel, Motel, Holiday Inn' stuck in my head for the rest of my shift:)

I like to end every post of mine with a thought I'm having..Call it the village idiot thought of the day.."I chatted with a potential investor a few weeks ago about Guerrilla Marketing. I promised him that recruiting people wouldn't be a problem. Think about this for a moment..The place I work at is loaded with 20 somethings, and for the most part their job is going to be over after the elections. Putting it lightly, they are going to be looking for work..Enter Rob Astle and his Guerrilla Marketing ideas to fill the void?"
