AMLAN SATAN: "As a grifter from Algiers with Homeland/American street-education in investment 'drifts' on Wall-St. and Churchill-Downs, it behooves me to find this natural social-media culture 'face' expression for an incomplete-distances measure to (rumored) blood-diamond pre-Xmas consumerism, maybe having premonition for V-Day (Valentine's)."



Well, our natural grifter-prince, Mr. Amlan Satan, had this eye for blood-diamond marks as a street-educated 'fan' of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations and considered his special examination for a racer-company (Arklow) chess-tied with Ion-company treasures, one particular ring, for which he made a replica.



BARON ION: Why this Arklow-upstart (future-millionaire)?
SATAN: Hey, you're the company to move the Waldorf to Cali (Salk?).
BARON ION: Diamonds are in, and laser-science nerds like it too, Mr. Satan!
SATAN: Coinvest in this Arklow-gem ad (Facebook-stuff) for examination(s).
BARON ION: While you 'babysit' (hype) my special media-ad ring-treasure.
SATAN: Need I say more...for Arklow's Waldorf?
BARON ION: Fine...but be careful, 'prince' Satan.
SATAN: That's what I am.



Well, California was quite the expression for worldly ventures, and the Ion company moved diamonds from SoCal into Kentucky for this Arklow-venture, under the 'media-IQ' consult-umbrella view of our protagonist grifter-prince (Amlan Satan) who managed to chess-tie Ion-treasures/ads with a new media venture for pre-Xmas diamond-consumerism (for a magazine-deed).



BARON ION: That 'grifter' left me a Cali-Bowl 'treasure' memoir in a locker-box.
ASSOCIATE: A Super Bowl 'premonitions' card for media-restorations, Mr. Ion!
BARON ION: It's a good-enough clean-up; next-time I work alone (damn).



WAITRESS: My name's Carol.
SATAN: I know that!
WAITRESS: Chicken-pie's the best we have.
SATAN: It's the very-best, Carol darling.
WAITRESS: Do I look lonely?
SATAN: Me too, Carol darling.
WAITRESS: Guessing you're a grifter in Cali (now)...I remind you of mom.
SATAN: Her name was Nina.
WAITRESS: This is the start of something...dangerous.
SATAN: I'm to Belgium with a racer-company 'deed' for Catholic-faith, Carol.
WAITRESS: Me too.
