A frustrated Narc. 

Work, any work worth doing, requires skill. 

Those British no-knockers working for us over in Iraq acquired their
skills in Northern Ireland. 

Did Hector miss out on Vietnam? He seems to be lacking Bushwhacking
skill. 

How does he end up with the Gordita assignment? He's buying information
for a fin on two-bit dealers, turning musicians and surfers, chasing
kids through the Gordita maze. 
What about all that money that Reagan and the Feds are spending? 


Sure don't look like Hector is getting any. 

I mean, the guy is still driving a motor pool Plymouth. 

What can he get for $5? 


Make believe shit or half an ounce of shit.   Kinda like the crap Zoyd
buys from time to time. No wonder he's sportin those cop chops and
outlaw fez. 

Early morning raids. Gee, sounds like the fucking Marines. And their
bustin down the doors of innocent men and women and children. Can't be
too good for moral. 

Ain't Hector's fault exactly, all them beach houses look a like.
