I decided to make a short intro based on "the Birds" by Aristophanes. Since "the Birds" is an ancient Greek comedy, I thought I would update it to be about the US. It is actually an intro for a "play within a play" called "the American Principuls". My brother thought the "Trailer Park Boys" was funny. It was set in a trailer park in Dartmouth, NS. I thought to myself "Americans can be much dumber than Canadians. Since the Trailer Park Boys had 3 characters, I made it 6. The six characters are: The Main Character (non speaking part and he is introduced in Cuckoo - You Have Awakened the Sleeping Giant) A 21 year old black girl with 6 kids and anytime the 6 year old says anything intelligent, she beats the s*** out of him A 21 year old white girl that makes her living off of porno web camera things. Although she is ugly in real life, whenever she goes "on camera" she is magically transformed (thru the marvels of digital technology) into being very beautiful (sound like anything you know about?) A 65 year old white, gay guy that finances the others thru micro-loans at high interest rates because he is on social security. He can loan them money for 2 or 3 weeks at most, but the American Principuls don't care. They want money now.
An undertaker. The first scene is a Vietnamese guy trying to sell ancient body parts from downed American flyers and a Chinese guy trying to sell fresh body parts from Falon Gong prisoners, only to have the Undertaker say he has a crematorium set up near his Funeral Home and can get all the body parts he needs, so they'd better make them available to him cheap in sufficient quantities.
A serial entrepreneur. He sells the services of the other 5 American Principuls. When one of them says "this is bulls***" he turns it into something that makes the grass grow and is the source of Green energy. He will try to get a tax credit based on this. I will set this thing in a trailer park in Spring Lake, NC - just outside of Ft Bragg. The six American Principles are "money, money, money" and "me, me, me".
