Is BOB intervening in my life?

Hello, peepl of alt slack. I am writing to ask: is it possible for BOB to
intervene in the lives of mortals? Can He take over parts of our
consciousness and make decisions for us? Even BEFORE we send in our $30?
Has anyone else here had an experience like this?

For some time a calm, utterly confident prescence inside my head has been
telling me to quit my job, to go and lie in the sun for days on end, that
everything is going to work out fine as long as I stay away from The
Conspiracy and its jobs! Instead of working for money, The Prescence has
had me doing semirandom FUN things: making a CD, designing T Shirts and
programming Mobile Phone games, none of which made any $$$ at all. (The
results of this phase of the experience are on my web page:
http://www.psilocybin.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk)

The number on my credit card statements has been getting larger and larger,
but the prescence just keeps telling me to relax, that it will work out
somehow. At first I thought of this thing in terms of Philip K Dicks
'Valis', then in terms of the 'Nommo of Sirius' from Robert Anton Wilsons
Cosmic Trigger, but its apparent devotion to SLACK makes me suspect it may
be BOB. I think I must have picked up some Dobbs Logos from Subgenius
material I first read over 7 years ago: As Living Information, BOB
slumbered in my brain, waiting for the right alignment, for the THC level
in my metabolism to reach some wierd critical point. Then in a sudden
bloodless coup He seized my inner control centre, booting out the 2d
simulacra of my parents who previously occupied that slot... Im being taken
over my MYSELF!

Only yesterday I got panicked by the large credit card number and set out to
do a night shift at what seemed to me a non-conspiracy reasonably
worthwhile job. However, the thing in my head had other ideas: It felt like
I was walking against some invisible psychic wave, every instinct I had
screamed "turn back!" "go home and slack off!", I had an Asthma attack and
was waylaid by a large semi-invisible black dog. In the end I had to give
in. Instead of being brave and responsible I went home and slacked off. It
felt like a triumph!

In the final analysis Im grateful to Bob (if it is He) for showing me my
true nature, but even tho Hes right here inside my brain and His irrational
calm confidence fills me, its hard to believe Him sometimes - when the
Bailiffs come to take away my guitars and throw me out on the street is it
going to help me to know that money is merely a tool used by The Conspiracy
to reel in our precious Slack?

Anyway, today I sent off my $30, I had no choice! Rationally I know Im
fucked - obviously Im just creating fantasies to justify my decision to
self destruct. Irrationally, BOB tells me to smoke a bowl and relax.

Send in your $30 to Austin, and maybe we'll provide you with some amusing
anecdotes about that sort of thing. By the way, it's "Bob" to you, kid.

Hey, you didn't read to the end of his testimony! The sumbitch just
became as saved as you are! Possibly even a tiny bit more saved,
because Customs will STICK it to him when the swag gets to England.
(Not something we can control.) The Man over there makes them pay EXTRA
just for spending $30 outside of the U.K.

The answer is YES, in many cases that Dobbshead seems to be there from
before birth, just awaiting The Triggering (which is followed by a much
less comfortable The Fingering).

UK customs are wierd, sometimes they charge and sometimes they dont. Ive
ordered lots of stuff from America but the only thing they stung me for was
Velvet Underground CDs. Maybe they only charge for items of spiritual
value?

The best way round it is usually to slip a bag of CIA Heroin in the package.
That stuff has microscopic beacons that de-triggers their scanners.

I thought that was what happens if you try and take non-CIA Heroin through
UK customs? Some of their androids now have telescopic fingers they can
stick right up your ass and move your head around like a puppet. Thats how
they get you to confess!!

I like where they put on those raggedy-man costumes and antlers on
their heads and go dancing around whacking on all the boundary stones
with long sticks.

Too fucking right he does. How else would I have found a perfectly good copy
of the Book of the SubGenius (First printing, I might add) in the gahdamn
garbage in Jackson, MS in 1983? Or 1984, I forget. I had it right up till
the time I mentioned to Stang a couple of years ago about the passages
contained in it warning about the evils of computers. Then it vanished.
Gone. I still got a later printing of The Book but no word in it about those
EVIL computers. So it must be safe, I guess.
