Recently I discovered my friend Roy from Kansas is coming to town to see me towards the end of June. I decided to call our mutual friend Mad Max, who is also from Kansas, in order to see if he is interested in coming to town when Roy does...a reunion of sorts:
"Do you think you can make it to town before the Apocalypse hits?" As I mentioned earlier - a mutual acquaintance of ours is going to be in town towards the end of June. It would be nice if Mad Max could make it as well - "I am telling you boy. You had better make it to town before the Apocalypse hits or I will be very pissed," I add once more with a hearty laugh.
Mad Max is a 'prepper' - for those of you unfamiliar with the term...look it up! - "You are a real funny guy Village Idiot. Did you know that? Think of it this way genius. Your capitulation to the deep state is a certainty. You and most of the other mindless 'sheeple' who walk around with their heads up their ass stand no chance. On the other hand, when they try to make me capitulate they are in for a rude awakening." I tease him about the 'Apocalypse' all the time. To me it is nothing more than fodder, not to him, he genuinely believes the end is coming soon.
"I will tell you this Village Idiot. If there is one shining light in my miserable existence. It's the fact we finally have a president who knows how to get things done." - Mad Max is Trump man numero uno. I ask him why he is so in love - "It's everything about the fucking guy I like. The biggest thing is his staunch support of the Second Amendment."
The reason I called is simple. Does he want to come out and visit when Roy comes to town? - "It will be like the good ol' days in Madison," I add with a laugh, "Hanging out, drinking and having a great time. The only real difference is we will be thirty years older and surrounded by a ton of hookers." -- "You really are a funny guy Village Idiot? I kind of like the idea," he then adds, "Me & the lady decided we were going to take a break from each other on vacations this year. She's going on a cruise with some of her girlfriends in May. I should be able to come out in June. Let me get back with you."
Our time comes to an end, but not before he gives me one last dose of his craziness - "When the 'deep state' comes knocking on your door will you be prepared? I know I will be! You definitely won't." It is one conspiracy after another with Mad Max - "Look," I say with emphasis, "I don't give a shit about the deep state or any other state for that matter. You just make sure you have your ass out here this summer. Hopefully the Apocalypse doesn't happen until after your trip." I then wish him well & hang the phone up.
