THE FIVE MOST EFFECTIVE QUESTIONS OF SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE


PEOPLE TOO SUCCESSFUL TO DEVELOP HABITS


Ask These Questions, And You, Too Can Have Your Own Infomercial!


But wait! There's more!



1. "Are you gay?"

Ask this of everyone you meet. Success means getting laid a lot. Successful people don't waste time on other people who don't even share their gender preferences. If you're gay, and so are they, bingo, you've saved a lot of time. If not, you've saved yourself a lot of time. Either way, say it with me:
"YOU'VE SAVED YOURSELF A LOT OF TIME!"


If you're straight, this eliminates all those embarrassing, "Uh, I should tell you, um, I'm gay... but you're a very nice person, ah..." conversations. Move on to the "fuckables," as we successful types refer to the rest of you. If a member of the opposite sex says "NO!" to this question, you're in like Flynn. (Just his heterosexual side, though.)

Your next remark should be, "Oh, sorry, you have sort of a gay vibe. Not that there's anything wrong with that..." Now they HAVE to fuck you, just to prove they're not gay. If only to themselves. And, best of all:

"YOU'VE SAVED YOURSELF A LOT OF TIME!"



2. "Could I just get you to do something for me, real quick?"


Most people like to be helpful. Most people want to be liked. Most people are just waiting to be told what to do. Every night before you go to bed, review your goals, and make a list of things you can do tomorrow to help reach these goals. In the morning, review your goals, and underline the ones you'd like to work on today.

Then, go find people who will drop everything to accomplish goals that benefit only you. This is capitalism at its' best. Use more than one person, as needed, per day. If you find an especially useful person, use them every day. Have them acquire money somehow, and use some of it to reward them. Artists, athletes, and executives are best for this.

"YOU'VE JUST SAVED YOURSELF A LOT OF TIME!"



3. "Can you afford to lose ten million dollars?"

Weed out the cheapskates, right away. Also, the really smart people. They're nothing but trouble. What you want are stupid egomaniacs whose buttons are easy to press. Simply turn and walk away from anyone who says "No." If they don't follow you, they're not worth bothering with.

Ask anyone who says yes, "Do you have complete control of your own checkbook?" Now you've implied they are incompetent, or pussy-whipped. Or whatever the female equivalent is. (Oh, yeah: MARRIED.)

Next, tell them to make it out to "CASH." Go directly to the branch of the bank whose address is printed on their check, cash the check, and buy a small island nation. You'll be glad you did. Next, void all extradition treaties with the U.S., and have yourself declared God. You'll be glad you did. Why? Because

"YOU'VE JUST SAVED YOURSELF A LOT OF TIME!"



4. "Do you have the President's cell-phone number?"


Almost no one does. But those who do can be very useful. Get the number from them, and start calling the President first thing every morning. Tell him you've got today's talking points. Then have him do your bidding. It's just that simple. At least, for the next four years.

Don't get greedy here: Leave the swag in Iraq to Halliburton. Dick Cheney is one of our seminar-graduates, and he'll rip your balls/tits off. But there's still plenty of swag out there. And, now that you have the President's personal cell-phone number, you have special access. The best part:

"YOU'VE JUST SAVED YOURSELF A LOT OF TIME!"



5. "Do you know exactly where and when the benevolent Alien ships land?"


This may seem like a silly question. You will get a lot of silly answers. But, someday, this is going to be the most important question of all time, especially for successful people. The Aliens won't want to breed a bunch of losers. And this could be your chance to fuck Cheryl Crow, or Lance Armstrong. In fact, the breeding program will pretty much define success, in the End Times. Ask. So what if you feel silly?

KERIK A CROOK?


NANNYGATE MY ASS! IT WAS TASERS & MORE!!
TOLDJA!!!


How Did This Wingnut Get To Be NYPD Commissioner?


Nannygate! HAH!! That's the LEAST sleazy thing they could have used as an excuse to get rid of this embarrassment!!! ONE WEEK he lasted! He didn't even make it to the Senate confirmation hearings! Even Tom Delay thought he was too bent! The guy had WARRANTS out on him! He tried to stiff his freakin' CONDO association! What a MAN! No WONDER Rudy loves him so much!


Giuliani was always a bit of a wing-nut himself. Before 9/11, he was best known for censoring art and harassing homeless people. He had the two best cops New York City, or the nation, ever had, Ray Kelly and Bill Bratton, but they were too damned good: Too professional, outshining the boss, not big enough ass-kissers.

And then along came glorified limo-driver Bernie "The Body" Kerik. That's right. Kerik was Rudy's police driver slash "bodyguard" back in the day. That's how they met. Many intense rim-jobs later, the wacko street cop became the big boss of America's oldest and largest professional police force. A job that should require a doctorate, and years of management experience went to a high-school drop-out and rentacop.


Kerik brought his bags with him. He seemed to regard himself as a law unto himself, perhaps even above the law. He was accused of using NY cops first to research his book; then to harass and intimidate journalists he disliked and suspected of stealing his publisher's cell-phone. He allegedly used NYPD photos of 9/11 in his book, without payment or attribution. He's said to have commissioned sculptural busts of himself, at NY Police Foundation expense, as gifts for VIPs. There were no takers. He spent big bucks on special doors for One Police Plaza, without checking the engineeering specs of the building. The doors were useless, the money was lost.

Not to worry, Bernie had a relationship with the door-company, so somebody made out OK on the deal. He ended up on the board of the Taser company, suppliers to the Department of Corrections and the police department in New York City, as well as Homeland Security. There was also some stink back at Corrections, about profiteering off the prisoners, disappearance of funds, and using employees for Republican Party political tasks. But, what's a little conflict of interest among pals?


Ya gotta go along to get along, right? Bernie became the poster boy for crony capitalism. And then came the big job, the one he'd been glad-handing, back-stabbing, skull-cracking, palm-greasing and ass-kissing for, all his weird, creepy life: From child abandoned by prostitute Mom to abandoner of love-child in Korea: From US Army dog-handler to prison guard: From Islamic Shariah-law enforcement goon for the Saudi's to brutal, incompetent interim Iraqi Minister of the Interior (until he bugged out, after three months): From long-haired Times Square narc to crome-domed 9/11 chief: SECRETARY OF HOMELAND SECURITY. The dreaded Hesita (HeimatlandSicherheitTäuschung)!


A charmed life, if there ever was one: If you believe in black magic. The guy was bad news walking. What the fuck was Rudy THINKING? Or maybe his driver had something on him, like those Arkansas State Troopers who ratted out Bill Clinton for his zipper problems? Time will tell. That is, if we ever hear from Rudy Giuliani again. This Kerik business may have put too big a stink on him for even THIS White House to tolerate. Time will tell.


Can't wait to see where Kerik turns up next. Watch your ass, Vladimir Putin! Some Amerikanski may try to kiss it! HE's really your kind of tovarich, and you could be his! Then there's Kim Jong Il. HE could sure use a bodyguard. Hey, any Banana Republics looking for a real Banana Republican?
