San Francisco is a very G friendly city. You have chopable Gentleman’s Clubs, High-End Hotels, a diverse female population, and minimal competition (most of the guys are “window shoppers” with no game). San Francisco is also open late and the streets are very lively: a perfect venue to display “Street Game”. With a set up like this, sometimes I feel I will look in the sky and see a blimp that reads “The World is Yours”. The Restaurants are also some of the best in the USA and there are plenty of first rate late night dining options. Try getting some good food like foie gras, burratta, and Steak Tartare in most cities after 11 pm and you will come up empty handed. Unless “good food” means for you, Denny’s “moons over myhami” or 3 rolled Taquitos with guacamole. One thing to really try before leaving San Francisco is Cioppino…..

Cioppino is a fish stew mixed together greatly influenced by the Old Country (for those of you who don’t know what time it is). It was however created by fishermen who settled in the North Beach section of San Francisco. Michael Mina can put together a decent Cioppino. However, the recipes for this dish are kept highly secret. Now, I am not going to tell you how to make Cioppino, I leave that to the experts. What I am going to tell you in is a perfect “recipe” for swooping mad girls in San Francisco…… a “North Beach Cioppino” of sorts…….

The two ingredients (types of girls) you want to focus on in San Francisco are the “Sophisto” girls and the “Fly” girls. The Sophisto’s are the intellectual “elite” that are relatively high end, educated, and might know more about wine and haute cuisine than you. The Fly girls have no idea what white truffles are but they can do the splits upside down in a one-handed handstand, back-flips, or at least dance really dope. Both types of girls have a big value proposition associated with them. The Sophistos can help you navigate the High-end side of San Fran, and the Fly girls, well….its pretty obvious. My perfect Recipe is: one part Sophisto girl and two or three parts Fly girls. Here is how you mix up a night in San Fran….G Manifesto style.

Step one, meet the Sophisto girl at a dope spot like Traci Dejardin’s spot, Jardiniere (you can drop my name if you want). Pay attention to all the knowledge the Sophisto girl has about the wine and food and commit to memory (this is good ammo for other girls in the future). Keep the vino flowing. Keep the conversation to things like “The History of Boutique Hotels in America” or something else high-end. Then strike. Roll back to your real “boutique” hotel (as opposed to phony ones like the W) on some premise like that you want her to see the design work in the lobby and your room. Close. It will probably be around 11pm and she will need to get back to her weesh boyfriend anyway. Perfect. Time to go back out, (how else are you going to swoop 100 plus girls in a year? Not by staying in and watching Sports Center, that’s for sure….) Time for……….

Step Two; link up with the first Fly girl at her work (most likely Larry Flynt’s Hustler Club). Enjoy the atmosphere with plenty of grey goose and sodas. Develop new leads (which should be easy in a hand-stitched 2 button Kiton with peaked lapels and a thick bankroll) while your waiting for your girl to have “a minute”. She will probably get off work around 4am and she will probably want you to be her date to some “Swingers Party” or something along those lines. Once the 4am meeting place is established “in stone”, leave the Gentleman’s Club (no need to over do it). Hit the streets in North Beach for some street game and a very specialized move ……

Step Three, now here is the Technique that works 100% of the time (also works on two Fly girls at once). It should be around 2 am by now, and you need to “kill” time until 4am. Here is how you do it: Hit the streets like an Arturo Gatti body punch. Suited down, Zippos, smokes and alter-egoing on Goose. Regular clubs should be letting out around this time. This is a beautiful time of night. The man with the best street game wins. Step to one (or two) of the best prospects and offer to buy them some Pizza (that’s why this is called The Pizza Move…skippy). Girls never turn it down (not sure why, but it always works…… could be the Brioni pocket square). As your eating pizza with the girls spit mad game and get them to roll back to your Boutique hotel as well. If you can’t pull this off, then your problems obviously don’t end there. Now you just need to fight a little for a cab (or have a driver on your payroll) and your home free.

Step 4, after you close; make some excuse about how you have to be in Macau for a poker tournament tomorrow or something to get the girls to leave. Then go meet the first Fly girl at 4:30 am at your meeting point and roll to the Swingers Party with a girl that has Pig-Tails and can do back-flips in tow. (We will cover these kinds of parties in another G Manifesto tip). Till then, ….The Rest is Up to You……

Emails of the week (2 positive and one kind of spazzy) in reference to past G Manifesto Tips:

“Great transition from “spandex batman suit” to “jewelry store heist” I don’t know of any contemporary or classic author who has ever attempted to do that let alone pull it off in true G Manifesto style. Not only the peoples champ but a literary genius. I’m naming my first born son, Michael Porfirio Mason. Keep them coming.”

“So powerful, compelling and stylish the G not only pulled off a major heist on Halloween Eve but he also probably slept with our wives in our beds while we were all passed out……..”.

—Very true—MPM

“For reals, dude? This is absolutely despicable and terrible and a disgrace to “journalism”. I fucking hated it! Congrats! All this blab about $2300 suits and keeping drivers on payroll and whatevers…you’re so full of shit. The people’s champ… whatevers man. On the other hand—if this were done in total irony: fantastic. But people like you don’t understand Irony, right? And even The Onion couldn’t come up with an editorial this fake and funny.–Ken”

—- First of all Ken, don’t call me “dude”. Second, where do people come from that say “for reals” and “whatevers”? Look skippy, just because you’re a bagger at Walmart doesn’t mean people can’t afford to buy nice clothes and have drivers. No, I actually don’t understand complicated concepts like “irony” but I do understand that you need to go back to your trailer park that you share with your parents. Also, who the fuck is “The Onion”? Your imaginary friend? What an incredible jagoff…….——MPM …..

Halloween Parties and Vampire Naps

(Click Here for The G Manifesto’s The Best Halloween Costumes for Guys)

As the Holiday Season approaches, the social calendar fills up with many options. Halloween parties generally kick off the whole Holiday party circuit and New Year’s Eve finishes the circuit. Halloween Parties, specifically can be very strong on paper: People in a festive mood, Drugs flowing freely, and Girls dressing in outfits that put the Women’s Movement back 20 years (I mean, what other time of year are you going to go home with a girl dressed in a “Brittany Spears” outfit?). And, don’t get me wrong, some of these parties live up to and exceed the hype. For instance, Hef throws a decent gig on Halloween and Versace used to throw a good gig in South Beach, Miami before his untimely death. However, it has been my long standing policy to “sit out” these Halloween parties and Holiday Parties in General (especially New Years…..any night that has it’s peak at 12am is not for the G). Why would you sit out such a “big” party night you ask? Keep reading and you will find out…young grasshopper.

First of all, any time you try to set up a “big night”, your chance of failure is higher. It’s the whole high expectations thing. For me, “Tonight” is the most important night. I don’t care if it’s Tuesday night, Wednesday Night, or the Ides of March……any night can be a potentially a “Big Night”. I don’t need the people at Hallmark to tell me when it’s ok to get a little out of hand. Also, on Holidays, Girls tend to be a little more emotional, there are tons of Guys out, and also tons of Cops. So, if you happen to like Overly Emotional Girls, Tons of Guys and Tons of Cops, then I wish you the best of luck dressed in your Spandex “Batman” costume. What Halloween is however, is a great time for a Jewelry Store Heist……………

Robbing Banks and Heisting Jewelry stores isn’t what it used to be in the Days when our fathers and uncles where out there doing it. In this day and age, the FBI has computers, parabolic microphones, DNA samples, and drugged out Informers up the Kazoo. So as a full-time occupation, being a Heist Man has lost some of its luster. That being said, there is still a lot of upside in “hitting” a Jewelry store every now and again for “old time’s sake”. Number one, you don’t have to go thru a big interview process and drug test to get the job. Number 2, the hours are not long and you get plenty of vacation time. And Number 3, the Wages are phenomenal. And Halloween is the perfect time to do it…..

First of all, you don’t look suspicious, walking around in a mask, or a disguise! You just want to make sure you have a few things in order before you “wack” the Jewelry store.

1. Make sure you case the joint fully. Find a place that has at least $500,000 retail in the window. Know how many people work there and when are slow hours. “Clock” the joint, so you know the whole routine.
2. Do the job solo, or with one trusted Running Partner. Keep your crew small.
3. Have guns (Colt .38’s are good, they wont jam and you will have plenty of fire power if things get dicey), duct tape and bags to haul away the score.

When the time is right, walk in (suited down of course, I like to wear a 3 button Zegna for style points….cost $2200, and make sure you have your disguise on) and ask the jeweler if you can look at one of the diamond bracelets in the case. As he opens the case, make your move and get the “drop” on him so he can’t hit the silent alarm. Tie him up in the back with the duct tape. Now, empty out as many open cases as you can. Sometimes you will get lucky, and the safe will be open (my first job ever, I got lucky). Make sure you walk…not run…out of the Jewelry store. You will be floating in “Thieves Paradise” anyway, so make sure you slow down the pace to not cause any suspicion. Drive off in the getaway car to designated hideout spot to inspect the loot. Many times leaving the “Job” on foot is the best course of action, like in Mid-Town Manhattan for instance.

Very important: Many heist men settle for too little when they are negotiating with Fences. Don’t do it. (We will handle negotiation in another G Manifesto tip.)

Leave the city that you did the “Job” in and let the heat die down. For instance, I am going to San Francisco this weekend….

I am not saying this is what I did over Halloween, but check the papers………………..

Vampire Naps

Many people stop me in the street or reporters come up to me, and ask me “How do you do it? How do you go out every night and have so much success?” Talk about a question that could take a lifetime to explain…………… Well, I will give you one big reason: Vampire Naps. Basically what a “Vampire Nap” is right before you go out, you jump in the Coffin you keep in your house, lie down in it and shut the coffin door. Meditate for 5 to 20 minutes or however long you have before you need to go out again. Do this, and you will feel completely refreshed and ready to stay out for another night. This is almost like some Eastern meditation thing. Now, keep in mind you don’t really need a Coffin, that’s just the image you want to keep in your head when you do this. Keep practicing, and you will be able to stay out night after night like the Fanged Ghoul Himself………..The Rest is Up To You………….

Side notes

Robert McCormick, the CEO of Sawis Communications who spent $241,000 in Scores was recently placed on unpaid leave………………….This Guy really should have read the G Manifesto Tip on Gentleman’s Clubs.

Also, the new James Bond is going to be outfitted in Brioni as stated in an earlier G Manifesto tip.

Emails of the week in reference to THE NINE HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE G’s:

“The G Manifesto once again brilliantly provides all of us Average Joes with a wake up call on life. He truly is a genius and innovator, a modern day Howard Hughes.”

“Good stuff. I’ve never seen that Covey guy at the playboy mansion either. I haven’t been this inspired since I read, “The Tao-Te Ching,” by Lao Tzu. Although Tzu’s theory of thought leans more to peace through passivity and not so much the self serving, misogynistic view point of a player. I can definitely find room on my bookshelf for both. Keep them coming.”

— It’s very comforting that other people out there understand The G Manifesto and all it has to offer—MPM
