Arklow Grifters {Electronic}

A Story by Abishai100
"

Can an 'unlikely-hero' offer a capitalism arena a special 'potion' for Grifter-distance (and diamond insurance)?

"
A capitalism-fable about heroics/superstition, inspired very loosely by The Grifters (John Cusack).

AMLAN SATAN: I'm daring Baron Goldfinger to a game of Peanuts-chess, and when I force a stalemate, I'll ask him what he thinks of my future-millionaire horse (Arklow) at Churchill-Downs and move out of him a special blood-diamond insurance journal for social-media commentary now that Philadelphia's captured the Super Bowl title --- for sportsmanship patriotism (wow).



Amlan Satan was an 'old-school' grifter, born in Algeria, moved to America and become a US-citizen, graduate of the Ivy-League, studied for 2 years in Spain (linguistics/economics) before immersing in the world of blood-diamond smugglers-highway interceptions under the underground field-alias Storm-Shadow, and when he began making cyber-comics tales of capitalism mission tales of heroics in the post-9/11 era, he began drawing in other 'like-minded' nerdists of the commerce-life landscape (e.g., Ajay Kragg of Microsoft/Xbox).



GOLDFINGER: Why'd you think I'd want to invest in a horse (Arklow)?
SATAN: Churchill-Downs draws you into the world of insurance/culture, Baron.
GOLDFINGER: Maybe I knew that, Amlan!
SATAN: Cool; Arklow's a future-star; let's invest in him together, if we stalemate.
GOLDFINGER: And if we do?
SATAN: You make a nice June-13th insurance-IQ message about diamond-sales (claiming you're my Arklow-America friend).
GOLDFINGER: Sounds profitable.
SATAN: Thanks!



When Interpol-relations demanded to know how 'Prince Satan' procured a diamond-insurance journal (social-media) move from the iconic blood-diamond baron from Princeton (Goldfinger), 'Storm-Shadow' (Amlan Satan) explained he'd become an 'adept' Artful Dodger of the gem-highways insurance inquiry 'universe' and simply had to move the 'right' text-tiles of media-ads under the commerce-culture 'umbrella' of ornamental curiosity.

INTERPOL: "Arklow's become a 'black-beauty' (Obsidian) for all journals (ha)."



Sure, the media-world of chess-commerce really did cast black gems of great insurance concern, and this forced the likes of the American Grifter (Storm-Shadow) to offer a 'response' to the corruption/darkness created by Baron Goldfinger, but it was all (ultimately) 'great' for cinema-expressions of 'dazzling' capitalism English (wow).



GOLDFINGER: When I discover the 'smell' of this cuisine, I'll make journal-requests (damn).



GIRLFRIEND: What're you going to do now (after retiring)?
AMLAN: Invest in a sports-cards store (Princeton).
GIRLFRIEND: What kinds of cards will this 'Grifter' of USA carry, Mr. Satan?
AMLAN: Football/baseball/ice-hockey; athletes/cheerleaders (Topps/Fleer!).
GIRLFRIEND: Sounds like a good 'data' end.
AMLAN: Thanks, Ezzy.
