my cousin once got hit with a billiard stick, what you call it, a cue stick, he got hit on his head. the cue broke, his head stayed intact.

I once had an pleasant conversation with an Irish UN employee whose job was to defend the interests of Irish travellers. He told me that they had an undeserved reputation as thieves, yet when I "politely inquired" as to what else they did to get by, I swear the only thing he could come up with was "kill horses".

oh yes. in my country 97% of the travelers is officially unemployed. still they drive around in mercedeses 560 sel.

but i like them. they're kind of anarchists, in fact they are the real anarchists, iykwim, not the government subsidized pseudo intellectual ones.

over here main source of their income is hemp. lol.

my cousin told me a story of a traveller that had bought a new car, but his brother didnt know he did, so he stole his car. lol. next day they found out.

they can be very dangerous, they don't give a shit about police or authorities. when they are put under pressure they just warn the major of the local city, you know, ringing at 4 o'clock in

the night at his door, setting his house in fire, waiting at his daughters school.

better don't have them as your enemie.

and they got excellent guitar players. dutch travelers are mainly sinti-gypsi.
