Allison robbed a Pizza Hut. Allison robbed a Starbucks. Allison robbed a Burger King, another Taco Bell, a Subway, a Payless Shoes, a Circuit City and a Radio Shack. She hardly said a word, Hood noted. All you needed was a gun and a mask and people instinctively knew what to do.

So, Guy is basically what KFC and Burger King and Taco Bell and all those other businesses were when I was a kid--a low-wage employer with a feeble benefits package and the proud ability to save me from the terrors that he himself will bring upon me. They're all poverty vendors with protection rackets on the side.

Fast-food outlets aren't wired into the cop houses like banks are, and the FBI sure doesn't come after you, so if you time it right you're good for eight hundred, maybe a thousand, maybe two thousand bucks. I can use two thousand bucks but I'm doing KFC a favor, too--I truly hope the shortfall will cause corporate to be a little more careful about who they accept into the management program.

Thousands of miles of roads, hundreds of miles of freeways. That was the thing about L.A.--in just two hours, at the right time, you could be way up Highway 395 or Interstate 5 to the deserts north, or just about make the Arizona border to the east, or be sitting at a cantina in Rosarito, Baja California, Mexico.

Some of my down payment came from early stickups: McDonald's, Carl's Jr., Blockbuster, Sav-on, Payless Shoes--anybody whose signs I got sick of looking at. But most of it came from cars I learned to boost and sell: grand theft auto beats armed robbery any day. You can pick up a gun and risk your life for a thousand bucks, or you can steal a good car and make thirty grand without encountering another human being.

I remote the door lock from thirty feet away, then the trunk. Without probable cause cops can't inspect what isn't in plain sight, and that's why you need a car with a trunk.

Laurel Canyon. Dusk on an August Saturday, about eight P.M. The L.A.sky is orange and gray and the air smells like flowers and exhaust.

Here’s the deal: I am a direct descendant of the outlaw Joaquin Murrieta. He was a kickass horseman, gambler and marksman. He stole the best horses and robbed rich Anglos at gunpoint. He loved women and seduced more than a few during his twenty-three years. Some of his money he gave to the poor, but to be truthful he spent most of it on whiskey, guns, tailored clothes and the women and children he left behind.
