Unfortunately for Bill, and for Meesh for that matter, Lil was about to discover the same wellspring of new perspective. One afternoon just before meeting Meesh for a "sales trip" to Dunnville Lil happened on an organized bra-burning at the post-graduate high school the government had built in the middle of nowhere down the road from Thorold. This single event became a defining moment for Lil. The future opened up and carried her away. Shortly afterward she went back to school, and with hard work and dedication got her PhD in lizard husbandry. The degree lead directly to a post-doctoral fellowship and then a lucrative research career at a reptile preserve in the Mississippi Delta.

Mother Teresa was similarly pre-occupied, which is why she procrastinated from posting bail. She was becoming increasingly annoyed by the message from the Goldwater campaign about extremism in defence of stuff. Mother Teresa knew a thing or two about extremism, and wasn''t about to grant it to Dominic and his brothers let alone the U.S. Government.

Not that Mother Teresa was a Democrat at heart. She was certainly not a Democrat in the recesses where thought counts. In fact she was generally apolitical and disinterested in public policy debates around such issues as liberation struggles and domestic equity. Her treatment of her sons proved it. However, she had become somewhat enamoured of the new breed of All-American commie fighters referred to gushingly in the media as the Camelot White House and dismissed out-of-hand by Bill as ""those charismatic Catholics"". She didn''t see anything romantic in Barry Goldwater, and didn''t believe he was a Catholic either. What she saw was the looming presence of even more powerful enforcement officers under the command of Deputy Chief O''Gready.

When Mother Teresa did finally get downtown to post bail for Bill, she repeated the same idea she had expressed in the bar weeks before. It was a statement to be repeated hundreds of thousands of times in bars and coffee houses, living rooms and mass rallies, throughout North America and Europe over the next ten years. It was simply, ""We''re fucked here. Let''s go to India.""We're fucked!"
[Miller] I need somebody else to hop on in here for a bit while I go surfin for a pic of Hondo Lane.VirgilON orange International


[Wiens] Did Mother Teresa not swear an oath of poverty and to help the poor…………perhaps she is incarnate as the woman driving around Virgil, ON on the tractor……..you do have a picture of that…….

[Miller] Story board that fact to the present - there is little doubt Mother Teresa is our old girl on the orange International cruising VirgilON. We have to work our way out of the 50's a wee bit more. In digging up Hondo Lane I learned something very interesting. The great Al Bundy once said "Your life is meaningless compared to Hondo". The tale of Anchor Bar is too much for mere words - stoke up the Pshop Igor and hang on.

[Rivers] I fear there are inebriants at work here! [Miller] I thought we were all canadians.

"Hey snakeman" snapped Bill out of the foggy daydream, his eyes cleared and a woman was standing with her head bowed outside his cell. "You've got company." It was Lil. "Your mother posted bail but she had to mortage the bar to get enough. I'm here to take you home" said Lil . "I left Meesh when I went to L.U." Bill's heart began to pound. "I heard about Lizard U." he said. "Not Lizard U., silly, Louisiana U. - I'm Dr. Lil now" she replied while lifting herself slightly straighter. "God, next you'll be on Jack Parr" chuckled Bill.
