70 If just one piece of mail gets lost, well, they'll just think they forgot

71 to send it. But if *two* pieces of mail get lost, hell, they'll just think
|

72 the other guy hasn't gotten around to answering his mail. And if *fifty*
|
|
73 pieces of mail get lost, can you imagine it, if *fifty* pieces of mail get
|
|
74 lost, why they'll think someone *else* is broken! And if 1Gb of mail gets
|
|
75 lost, they'll just *know* that Arpa [ucbarpa.berkeley.edu] is down and
|
|
76 think it's a conspiracy to keep them from their God given right to receive

80 The Buddha, the Godhead, resides quite as comfortably in the circuits of a

81 digital computer or the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top

82 of a mountain or in the petals of a flower. To think otherwise is to demean

83 the Buddha -- which is to demean oneself.

101 I was offered a job as a hoodlum and I turned it down cold. A thief is
|
|
102 anybody who gets out and works for his living, like robbing a bank or
|
|
103 breaking into a place and stealing stuff, or kidnapping somebody. He really
|
|
104 gives some effort to it. A hoodlum is a pretty lousy sort of scum. He
|
|
105 works for gangsters and bumps guys off when they have been put on the spot.
|
|
106 Why, after I'd made my rep, some of the Chicago Syndicate wanted me to work
|
|
107 for them as a hood -- you know, handling a machine gun. They offered me
|
|
108 two hundred and fifty dollars a week and all the protection I needed. I
|
|
109 was on the lam at the time and not able to work at my regular line. But
|
|
110 I wouldn't consider it. "I'm a thief," I said. "I'm no lousy hoodlum."
