-Good Will Hunting
"Why shouldn't I work for the N.S.A.? That's a tough one, but
I'll take a shot. Say I'm working at the N.S.A. and somebody puts a code on my
desk, something nobody else can break. Maybe I take a shot at it and maybe I
break it. And I'm real happy with myself, 'cause I did my job well. But maybe
that code was the location of some rebel army in North Africa or the Middle East. And once they have that location, they bomb
the village where the rebels were hiding and fifteen hundred people I never had
a problem with get killed. Now the politicians are sayin', "Send in the
marines to secure the area" 'cause they don't give a shit. It won't be their
kid over there, gettin' shot, just like it wasn't them when their number got
called, 'cause they were pullin' a tour in the National Guard. It'll be some kid
from Southie over there takin' shrapnel in the ass. He comes home to find that
the plant he used to work at got exported to the country he just got back from.
And the guy who put the shrapnel in his ass got his old job, 'cause he'll work
for fifteen cents a day and no bathroom breaks. Meanwhile he realizes the only
reason he was over there in the first place was so we could install a
government that would sell us oil at a good price. And of course the oil
companies used the skirmish over there to scare up domestic oil prices. A cute
little ancillary benefit for them but it ain't helping my buddy at two-fifty a
gallon. They’re takin' their sweet time bringin' the oil back of course, maybe they
even took the liberty of hiring an alcoholic skipper who likes to drink
martinis and fuckin' play slalom with the icebergs, it ain't too long 'til he
hits one, spills the oil and kills all the sea life in the North
Atlantic. So now my buddy's out of work and he can't afford to
drive, so he's walkin' to the firkin job interviews, which sucks 'cause the
shrapnel in his ass is givin' him chronic hemorrhoids. And meanwhile he's
starvin' 'cause every time he tries to get a bite to eat the only blue plate
special they're servin' is North Atlantic scrod with Quaker State.
So what did I think? I'm holdin' out for somethin' better. I figure fuck it, Why not just shoot my buddy, take his job and
give it to his sworn enemy, hike up gas prices, bomb a village, club a baby
seal, hit the hash pipe and join the National Guard? I could be elected
president."
Lina! I miss you so much! I am going to go online more so i can talk to you. I hope you're having fun down there. Don't work too hard! It's good that you know what you want to do. I absolutely WILL come down to visit some day. Just because Jason wont be there doesn't mean there aren't any people i want to see!
well today was a holiday in America called Valentines day. I dont know if you have it in Brazil, but its supposed to celebrate Saint Valentine somehow. you do something special with your girlfriend/boyfriend or you confess to someone you like. It's kind of a "cheesy" holiday but sometimes its fun.
how are you? i want to talk to you some time. Its been so long!
