The G Manifesto

The Blueprint of a Perfect Night in Las Vegas

Las Vegas is leading the way for Western cities as far as Nightlife, Restaurants, Architecture and Design. A lot of this is due to Southern California’s need to be ultra conservative about things. Last call for drinks 1:30? Whose bright idea was that? Huge crack down of illegal night spots? Makes sense. Basically, they have made Southern California into a place that is very difficult to have fun at night. If someone tells you there is good nightlife in southern California, I will bet my last dollar that they are from some lame backwater or crappy suburban Middle America town……guaranteed they are from somewhere that’s way worse than Southern California. This all being said, Las Vegas has really stepped up to fill the void. But what is the best way to attack Vegas? First of all, never, ever, under any circumstances, yell, “Vegas Baby” or say “What ever happens in Vegas, stays in….” or any other genius, original sayings. If you get that part down, you’re better off than most people out there. But if you really want details, here is The Blueprint to a Perfect Night in Las Vegas (G Manifesto style):

8:00pm: As we have already covered, The Vegas Battlefield is won and lost on two questions, “Where are you staying?” and “What did you do earlier in the night?” That being said, you want to stay either at Wynn, Venetian, Bellagio, The Hotel (in Mandalay Bay) or in a pinch the MGM (not bad actually, if there is a Boxing Match). At 8 at night you want to be dipped in fresh gear (suits obviously, I prefer going with a tie in Vegas as well as pocket square….Brioni works well) and ordering a cocktail at the main casino bar for an opener. This is a good opportunity to lock down the bartender girl and some of the waitresses. Feel the vibe of the casino and make sure your ready for the night. Get your stories straight. Make sure your Zippos have plenty of fluid, working pen, plenty of smokes …etc. Pull data from bartender about any tips that might be new since the last time you were in town. No need to get panicky with the Grey Goose, you have plenty of time if you start at this time. That’s really the key, you want to start early. The more face time the better. If you’re dressed properly, and you use G Manifesto tactics, civilian girls will start gravitating over to you. Number crunch if there are some good prospects but don’t hang out too long because you need to eat a high-end meal and fuel up for the night…..

8:30pm Depending on which hotel you are staying, get another cocktail and an appetizer at the Second best restaurant in the Casino. This way you can hit two restaurants in a night. You might see a reasonably famous person (like a celebrity attorney or Aging athlete or actor) sitting at the restaurant bar eating solo. Go up and introduce yourself. Rap out with the cat. If you have game, and you make a good impression, he probably will pick up your tab for you (always offer to pick up the tab yourself). He might even give you some words of wisdom. Get his card for future and …..

9:15pm Shoot over to the best restaurant in the Casino and eat at the bar. This “chamber” is one of the best of the night. Again, pull data sheets from the bartender about new night spots. Now is a good time to intermix water in between the Gooses and Vino. Now is the time to enjoy yourself. Take your time. Chew your food. If you’re at Daniel Boulouds spot, get the short rib…..it’s slow cooked for 3 to 3 and a half hours. Although I have never been to a TGI Fridays, I am sure it’s better than anything they have on their menu to say the least. If you hit the best restaurant in any of the above mentioned Casinos, you are in for a real treat. If you get good rapport with the bartender he will probably pro-bono you heavy. If you are in a financial pinch, throw the meal on a phony credit card, or on someone else’s room number, preferably an enemy’s room number. Personally, I always pay CASH, and tip huge to keep the wheels greased for future. Make sure you get the Matre’ D’s card in case the next night you have a date with one of Steve Wynn’s friend’s daughters.

11:00pm The Casino Crawl. This part of the night is always interesting. This is the time of night when the girls who are smiling and winking at you from across the bar are not tourist girls who think you look like a young Andy Garcia and want to date you. The vast majority of these girls are pros. Real pros. The kind with a fee attached. This is another good opportunity to get your game up and running if you haven’t already. Talk to a few. Hey, if you meet one that looks exactly like Mariah Carey or Catherine Zeta-Jones, take her up on her offer. To each his own. I won’t judge you for it. However it’s better to leave the casino and move to the next step……….

11:45pm Shoot in cab over to Scores or some other Gentleman’s Club. You only want to be here for about an hour. This is where the “One-Three” rule applies. Your whole goal during this “chamber” of the night is to get One strong lead or Three loose leads. Girls usually can’t leave at this time anyway. You just want to get some good leads for later in the night. It’s like investing. Only this is much safer than Michael Milliken’s Junk bonds…..You want to try to split by 12:45 because that’s when status quo drunk Guy starts appearing at the Gentleman’s Clubs. If you stick around too long, you will start hearing people say, “Vegas Baby” or “What ever happens in Vegas, stays in….” So trust me…..get out of there.

12:55am The Nightclub. This is probably my least favorite part of the night. But it’s a necessary evil. I look at this point of the night as killing time. A good move is to “piggyback” on someone you know who has a VIP table so you don’t have to deal with the 500 people line to get in. Or freestyle it. It’s really not too hard to get into clubs in Vegas if you’re dressed sharp. For all of Vegas’s dapper history of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Bugsy Siegel, today’s Vegas, let’s face it, is a real Slob-fest. Very rarely will you see someone dressed as sharp as you. Personally, I never see someone dressed as sharp as me.

Once you’re in the nightclub, try to stay positive. Believe me, it will be hard to stay upbeat once you realize the DJ isn’t mixing and plays songs like “Jump Around”. The fact is, even with all the E Channel and Paris Hilton-Hollywood Hype, Las Vegas clubs are very sub-par. The DJ’s are generally speaking, horrible and the clientele is dressed up people who were eating at their local Dairy Queen two days prior. That being said, some of the girls are decent looking. But generally speaking, it’s a “Girls Gone Wild” crowd. Girls bringing back the Women’s Movement by lifting up there short skirts and doing phony “lesbian” dances. Don’t fall for it. Let “status quo Guy” fall for it. Guaranteed you will hear him say, “Vegas Baby”. Resist the urge to shove a rocks glass in his mouth or slit your own wrists. It will be all over soon. Most of these girls are sorority types on some kind of “Vegas sexual awakening” vibe that’s total crap. The bottom line that these are mostly Middle America white girls that can’t dance. Total amateurs. Personally, I like girls who Can dance. As you know by now, if its not models, I prefer pros……………..

3:00am Showtime. Head over to the best Gentleman’s Club Dejour. Shake hands on your way in and post up at the bar. Refer to the Manifesto Tip on Gentleman’s Clubs. Your home free now. Shift change is coming up and that room at Wynn you have will really pay for itself. In some of the Gentleman’s clubs in Vegas I have a better record than Rocky Marciano….and remember he was 49-0.

4:30am Roll back to your suite with girl(s) and enjoy……The Rest is Up to You.

(Repeat above night for as many nights as you mentally and physically can handle)

Side note:

To address all the rumors, yes, 50 Cent is a regular reader of The G Manifesto. The Manifesto was actually inspiration for his new “Window Shoppers” video being set in Monaco.

Now for the email of the week:

“With so much to be thankful for as the Holidays approach, no one is more thankful than I am for having Mr. Bond, sorry I meant Mr. Mason enlighten me with tips that have gotten me more hot ass than a toilet seat and a boy band combined in the past few months, cheers to you MPM, like the Guinness commercial BRILLIANT!!!”

—-never seen the Guinness commercial, but thank you—-MPM

“The G Manifesto is how I have lived my life..Sometimes people will call me a “bitch” but hey, I take it as a compliment. Why show Mercy to those who will destroy you if they get a chance??”—Cherilynn

Dates and The Vino Move

So, you met a fly girl out at night and she has agreed to go out on a date with you. What should you do? Should you take her to the movies to see that new Hollywood blockbuster? Should you take her to that new “hot” club in town where every guy is wearing striped “party” shirts and the DJ has no skillz? Should you take her to go see the new band she really likes? Should you play the “intellectual guy” and take her to a coffee shop for stimulating conversation? Should you just let her pick the place?

There are many different angles to take on a date with a girl, and most of them are wrong. In fact, the answer to all the above questions is “NO”. Movies are terrible in general and the girl will probably fall in love with the actor in the movie (who actually probably doesn’t even like girls). The club is a bad move because you leave yourself open to all kinds of sharks who “prey” on girls that are with guys on a first date. The live music thing? No dice. Why would you bring a girl to some gig where some other guy is the star? Coffee shop? Hell no, no cocktails. Let her pick the place? Are you insane?….that’s the easiest way to get “Behind Enemy Lines” (which of course we know how to deal with from a prior G Manifesto Tip). Here is how you do a date with a fly girl………. G Manifesto Style…….:

1. Choose the place. Never let the girl pick the place, or you’ll end up going to The Olive Garden for what she calls “the best Italian food I have ever had”. You need to pick the spot, preferably your “Base of Operations” or a new spot that’s mind blowing that you heard about from word of mouth or referral. Taking a fly girl to your Base will only increase your status at your Base, and also the girl will be impressed by the red carpet treatment you’re receiving. So everything works all the way around.

2. Make her meet you there. This part is extremely important as you will find out soon enough. Meeting the girl at your Base of Operations keeps your more agile and you don’t have to drink and drive. Also, this is what the Europeans and sophisticated city people do…they “meet up” or as the French say they “rendezvous”. White Trash suburban people go pick up the girl for the date…

3. Stake out a good spot in the restaurant. Always have your back to the wall. This way you can see everyone coming in….i.e. her current boyfriend, rival players, hit squads or members of P-2 (Propaganda Due, the renegade Italian espionage organization). Also, try to get there before her. This way if anything unforeseen happens (like your favorite bartender is sick) you will have plenty of time to establish rapport with the new bartender and Lock the place down “on the fly”. Plus this will give you some time to drink a couple of Grey Goose and Sodas to smooth it out…..

4. Once the girl arrives, always greet her with the “two-kisses” greeting. This always puts American girls under the “ether”. Or maybe it’s the custom made Canali suit with no vents. Either way, keep her hypnotized with upbeat, positive conversation. Travel is always a good topic of conversation to make sure there are no uncomfortable silences until the booze kicks in. Tell her stuff she has never heard before like, “the history of nightclubs in America” (which is easy for me since my parents took me to Studio 54 when I was seven years old) or about the real life “Keyser Soze” (who I won’t mention his real name) and how he controls America (which is easy for me since I know who he is and in fact my little brother is good friends with his son).

5. The Vino Move. As the night progresses, keep the Vino flowing at a brisk pace. Grease the bartender or waiter to make sure your wine glasses always stay full. In reality, these bottles don’t have to be the most complex/expensive bottles. First of all she probably won’t be able to tell the difference anyway, and second, sometimes it becomes a head ache analyzing every sip (“do you taste the black currant?” “Can you see how the wine is opening up?”) Just pick a good solid red; I prefer Bordeaux or a good Rioja. The whole point of this is you want the girl to be too drunk to drive herself home. (Lets be honest, the whole point of the date was too able to bring the girl back to your crib or a boutique hotel anyway.) After multiple bottles of red the girl will probably be in love with you anyway, and if she isn’t, she will be when you tell her that “I can’t let you drive, we have had too much to drink, let’s go to my crib for a glass of water”. The craziest part of all this is she will think you are a true Gentleman!

At this point in the night you will usually hear her say, “Ok, I will come to your crib, but I will not sleep with you…..” It is at this point in the night when you can truly relax and light up a smoke with your Zippo, because you are truly home free. Anytime a girl utters those words you can bet your last dollar that she will be tearing off the expensive Canali fabrics you have on the minute your key touches the lock of your door………..The Rest is up to You……….

The emails of the week in reference to: G Manifesto Tip: San Francisco, North Beach Cioppino, and The Pizza Move

“Once again the “Big G” shows how to manipulate the inner organs of America’s finest cities.”

“Man, i never even wanted to be a player, and now that i have seen the shining light from above, i know i was meant to be a “G.” I have just a couple of questions though… Where do you find a tailor that can make polyester look good, and should i put new duct-tape in the backseat of my pinto?”
———-skip the polyester, go with Italian silk, and ditch the pinto, pick up a cadillac———MPM

“Do people really live like this? Um, I don’t really see the point of this. Well written and all, but shouldnt it really be labeld ‘how to be a player’? Essentially, thats what you were describing, or maybe a a playboy, or a trustfund baby. Is this all you think there is to life? Well written, but maybe you need to evaluate your priorities some more. Maybe it’s just me, but this bothered me a little. You are a good writer, maybe you can actually write something of substance next time. Amy.”

——–Aren’t all girls named “Amy” the same? I met tons of girls named Amy in my life, and I can’t picture one of them. And you know what they say about pictures……… To be honest, Amy, this is written for true G’s and aspiring G’s. My “priorities” include (but not limited to): getting more out of life, having fun, dressing sharp, being a protector of the helpless, getting in touch with my spiritual side, dating models, influencing world politics for the betterment of humanity, making money and rolling around with High-Society girls (in no particular order). If these “priorities” are a crime, then lock me up…….——–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

THE NINE HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE G’S

There are a lot of “Self-Help Gurus” out there today. Many of these People write about their “Keys” to success in business, relationships, and life in general. None of these “experts” really know what its like to be a G. Most of the information these Guys are pushing is pure trash with no application to the Real World, the Night Club or the Street. In fact, if you have one of these guys’ books and a dollar, you can probably get a cup of coffee. And no chance at a double espresso in NYC……….

Many people have read the The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey. Decent read. I think this guy is really on to something. For the G Manifesto Tip this week, we are going to give you Nine Habits. We are going to out-do that Covey guy by Two Habits. I mean who is this Covey guy anyway? I have never seen him at the Playboy Mansion, and I certainly have never seen him in South Beach at Model Parties during February……………..

1. Dress Sharp. In fact, dress as sharp as one of Miyamoto Musashi’s Samurai Katanas. You might not always be the smartest, richest, or best looking person in a room—but you can be the Sharpest Dressed. Work on the things you can control. Believe me, if you know my Tailor you can be the best dressed in any room you step into. Look at it this way, if you roll up to the spot dressed like Eminem, you better be able to flow like Eminem. Otherwise you command no respect on a first impression, nor should you. A lot of times on the west coast you will see guys get away with the whole “casual” look. That’s great. Watch what happens when they try to roll to the Big Cities back East and in Europe: you will see “Mr. Casual” waiting in line outside the Night Club, freezing there asses off in their Board Shorts and Flip-Flops with zero hope of gaining entrance (While someone like me, Kiton suited-down is dicing the line with two Hungarian Model chicks dressed in minks………who would you rather be?).

2. Knowledge. Knowing how many Passing Yards that Brett Favre jackass has thrown for this year doesn’t count. Every white trash jerk in every Sports Bar in America has that Data. You want to be “Worldly”. Know about current events. Get “inside information”. Travel, read, or least watch the Travel Channel for God’s sakes, so you can fake it. Everyone, and I mean everyone, finds Travel and Foreign lands interesting. At least anyone you want to get to know. And when I say “Travel”, I don’t mean taking a trip to the Trailer Park you grew up in on the outskirts of Phoenix. Go somewhere culturally stimulating, like Saint Tropez, France or Buenos Aires. (Just don’t go somewhere too exotic, like where the natives are cannibals or where you’ll catch Malaria or get some major stomach problems) Expand your horizons….

3. Skillz. Know how to open a bottle of wine with out “blowing it”. This is an easy one to master. Just go to a good wine store and buy a case, maybe try the 2004 Marquis Philips Shiraz…..open and drink each bottle…..by the time you finish the case you will know how to do open a bottle of Vino like a pro! As a side benefit you will be drunk for a few days. Also know how to open a Bottle of Champagne. Nothing ruins an evening better than having the girl of your dreams back at your hotel and you’re trying to open the Bottle of Bollinger Vieilles Vignes Francaises and have the cork shoot out and hit the girl in the eye….. Also learn some other languages besides just English (News just in….its a global world) …Know some phrases in French, Spanish, Italian, ….Somalian….I mean how are you ever going to swoop on a couple of Models from Denmark if you don’t know how to say “Why don’t you and your girlfriend come back to my crib, eat some E-Tabs and show me how you do Handsprings and Cartwheels…” in Danish?…………………..

4. Availability. Always go out at night. Even when you’re “taking it easy” you should go out at least Two nights a week. I don’t care how much Game you think you have, nothing good ever comes out of a night on the couch with the TV on (Think of the last great night you had sitting at home watching “Elimi-date”………………exactly.). And when you’re out, make it happen. Always be thinking Money and Girls. Those are your two goals. Every conversation should be about making connections to make more Scratch or maneuvering girls. “Enterprise while you Socialize”—Damon Dash, CEO Rockafella Records.

5. Be Persistent and Positive. The Robber Baron and Founder of Standard Oil, J.D. Rockefeller once said, “The secret to success is to get up early, work late and strike Oil”. Striking oil never comes from luck…it comes from hard work and being persistent. I can’t tell you how many nights I have gone out where I rolled to a restaurant—nothing really happening, then rolled to a club—nothing really happening, then rolled to a gentleman’s club—nothing really happening, then rolled to another better Gentleman’s Club—and……… Struck Oil! Non-G’s would have given up on the night at 2am. Not the true G. Be Confident. That’s the difference. Be in Control of your Destiny……Manifest Destiny…what you want to become you will become…and That is The G Manifesto in its simplest form. If you want and act like you have a Mansion in Barcelona, one day you will reach in your pocket and there will be the Keys to a crib in Barcelona……..

6. Don’t Sleep. “Money Never Sleeps”—Gordon Gekko. “A Shark Never Sleeps”—Famous Sports Agent. “Kings Don’t Sleep”—Well known G. That’s enough reason for me to know that little good comes out of sleeping. Look at the flip side of these Quotes: Broke, Minnow and a Pawn. Easy choice. If you need to, take naps. Plenty of time to sleep when you’re in a coffin. “I never sleep, cuz sleep is the cousin of death” –Nas Escobar

7. Network. Know people, and put people you know together. This will only make you a more valuable person and you can make Heavy Scratch off this too. Examples of people you should know: Politicians, CEO’s, Rich Cats, Union Bosses, Neighborhood Dons, Restaurateurs, Prize Fighters, Tailors, even Mechanics. Anyone really that can be of Value. Don’t be afraid to cross over into the Underworld as well. For instance, it is good to know a few beautiful “Fee for Service” girls you might want to turn on to someone your trying to do business with to “Grease” Thru a Deal. It’s always good to know a good Safecracker, or a first-rate Second Story Man. It has never hurt anyone to have some Yakuza Assassins (these guys are easy to take money off of in poker games) in their rolodex. You really should try to be a “Yellow Pages” of the Upperworld and Underworld. This will make you twice as valuable.

8. Be Ruthless. When you have the opportunity, you must Crush your Enemies and Rival Players. When you see the opening its not the time to let your inner “Ben and Jerry” come out (although I heard now these guys are ruthless business guys and big-time polluters…..safe to say I don’t run in the same circles as these two ice cream moguls/ hypocrites) and be all forgiving. You need to take these guys out completely. Take their heart, take their soul, take their girlfriend (of course, give her back at some point…you don’t need any extra headaches..)….just make sure the guy is finished.

9. Adaptability. Many so called “players” have a good run one summer. Some even go on a roll for a few years. Even less of the phony “G’s” out there will string together a number of “fruitful” years. Good. Great. Glad to hear it. How about, Being Razor Sharp thru 4 Decades? ………then Skippy….then you can sit at my “Poker Table”. Most guys don’t make it for the long term because they have no Adaptability. Just think of the early 90’s long haired “player” who bit Kurt Cobain’s style, had a full arsenal of flannel shirts, had every “Porno for Pyro’s” album and used to get mad chicks. I’ll bet heavy scratch that in 2005 he is laying on his couch, twitching, at some shitty crib in the desert somewhere with a crappy used-to-be hot Blonde wife with premature wrinkles that doesn’t even know how to cook. Poor guy, he used to have it all. Problem was he had no Adaptability. Or that late 90’s Pro-Athlete guy who was really “running things”. Now, his steroids are wearing off, his face is puffy, and his Cro-Magnon game gets him just about nothing. Problem was, he had no Adaptability. If you don’t Adapt you become extinct (When was the last time you saw a Dinosaur walking down the street?). I’ve seen it happen to many people, and Believe me, it isn’t pretty………..

Being a G for life is no easy task. Some people probably don’t even have it in them to do it. The above habits should be worked on and practiced every single day. This is how your dreams will be Manifested….Manifest Destiny….See you in the French Riviera…The Rest is Up To You………………………

Here is the email of the week regarding lasts weeks G Manifesto Tip: “Top to bottom…….. Solid!”

Here is another: “Another masterpiece!!!!”

Behind Enemy Lines:

Home turf for the G is obviously 5-Star Hotels, The Best Nightclubs/ Gentleman’s Clubs, Top-Notch Restaurants, and Dope Lounge Bars. When you’re in these types of joints, life is good. And obviously, hanging out with Models and High Society Girls is part of the Goal of “The Life”.

But every G can’t just live off a steady diet of Models and High Society Girls. You need to intermix some different types of girls into the fold. For instance, you might meet a beautiful “Suicide Girl” that strikes your nervous system the right way. Or meet a fly beach bunny or college girl. Or really, any illmatic girl from a different social strata. The upside is these girls can really give your body a workout and your mind a rest. The downside is that when you are hanging out with these girls you sometimes might find yourself “Behind Enemy Lines”. This happens when the girl your with convinces you to go to a place that her and her friends hang out at. The kind of place you would never, ever make a decision to go to with a sober mind. Like when you are at some artsy, tattoo, and nose ring type gig. Or at a shitty beach-type bar. Or at some weesh house party. The dead give away is when you walk in to the joint, and your suit–shirt–tie ensemble costs way more than what everyone else in the bar is wearing combined. Or you will know when the cash in your pocket is way more than everyone else in the bars bank accounts combined. Or when you see a lot of guys buying their drinks with Plastic. Or when the bar doesn’t have any Grey Goose. Or a wine list. Or when there is no Tartare on the menu. Or when drinks cost less than 10 bucks. Or when there are way more guys with “MTV Hair” than are guys in Zegna suits. Or when everyone in the bar missed the boat on the “South Beach Miami Model Renaissance” in the late 1990’s. Or when you look around the bar and you don’t recognize anyone…..from anywhere. Or when….you get the point. The bottom line is that you are “Behind Enemy Lines”.

This week’s tip helps you deal with this unfortunate situation. Usually when you are “Behind Enemy Lines”, every girl in the spot is checking you out and every guy in the place is Hating you. You and your $2300.00 suit really have a target on them. This can be a potential time bomb situation. But if you follow these tips you can emerge with a victory on the night.

1. Always stake out a good corner spot. We have already gone over the importance of this, but try to get a spot where your back is to the wall. You want to be able to observe everything that’s going on around you. Now is not the time for any surprises…

2. Make sure your Energy is up. Drink a Rock Star before you go to the spot….or for style points, drink a double espresso….just make sure you are on-point like Phife Dog on the mic during the first three Tribe albums….

3. Be Proactive. Get the bartenders on your team. To deal with this kind of a night, you’re going to need drinks, and you are going to need them right away. So grease the bartender…..Also if you see any guys giving you bad looks, go up and introduce yourself. De-fuse any potential problems.

4. Blackslaps. When you are introducing yourself throw in a lot of Backslaps. Act like you’re the Mayor or at least the silent owner of the bar. Hit people with positive energy. Control the room. (This is the Legendary Washington DC Restaurateur/ Mob Bag Man “Duke” Ziebert’s technique of working the room…..)

5. Get the bouncers on your team. Most bouncers haven’t had a good day since the last football game of the season Senior year of High School. Be cool to them. Maybe Grease them. If problems arise, they will usually back the guy that slipped them a cool C-Note. (I mean, what do they make on a shift? $80 bucks? A C-Note is a lot of leverage with these guys……)

6. Have lots of CASH on hand. This really goes with out saying. Believe me, it’s way better to be in a place that sucks with a lot of CASH than not enough…..Plus if some jackass guy tries to compete with you for the girl you brought, you can take him into deep financial waters and drown him……………

7. Keep your eyes peeled for the girls that are really checking you out. Get some phone #’s while the girl you came with isn’t looking. Might as well get some “new leads” while your out….just consider it “pay back” to the girl who convinced you to go her crappy spot and introduce you to all her crappy friends. Just make a mental note not to let any of these “new lead” girls convince you to go to any lame spots in the future.

8. Always keep a driver on your payroll. Town cars, in my opinion, are the best….the most style points….limos are decent but are not really all that Agile. When you are finally able to get out of the joint…you want out…and fast…..hailing a cab with all the other fuckheads who were in the bar is completely out of the question…….

9. Worst come to worst, and you get into a serious confrontation, remember to bring a Nickel-Plated Beretta with you. I personally prefer the 9mm. Make sure its Nickel-Plated, because when you wave it around, the lights in the bar will reflect off it and everyone will notice…..hell, at this point you might even want to Heist the joint for all your troubles and turn a little profit on the night…..

You never want to find yourself in Un-friendly G environments. But sometimes it happens. Follow these rules and you will make it out of the spot with the girl who persuaded you to go there, and some new girl leads for the future……The Rest is Up To You…..
