Yer not supposed ta remember what went before, Bobertz, cos it would screw up the game if ya did. Think about it this way: each life is like a brand new chess challenge on a brand new board with new pieces and a new opponent, and you gotta start the game fresh. It ain't no good if someone tips you off ahead of time on how the game is set to go (in terms of how yer opponent, meanin' the conditions in yer new life, is gonna play it out). The game wouldn't play out fairly if you got tipped off to that. You gotta go in innocent, see? And then ya get to really play.

An idiot like Dahmer might get to come back and do somethin' totally opposite to what he did last time, so's he could learn somethin', see? He might even be the victim next time insteada the perp, see? Or he might be the victim's Mom or brother or somethin'. That would get the damn lesson across, wouldn't it? Or he might be a cop that helps catch the perp. Anything that works. Or it might be somethin' else entirely. Put it this way...if I meet Jeffrey Dahmer HERE and NOW in this life, I stop his clock, see? But once he has reincarnated, all bets are off, cos he ain't Jeffrey Dahmer no more. He has got a whole new chance to get it right this time, and how do you know he won't?

p.s. Got yer CD. It's real good. But I don't believe it's you. It sounds exactly like my old pal Blind Melon Jones that used ta play around Chicago till he got drunk and fell asleep on the railroad tracks one night, and the 11:00 freight come rumblin' through. They hadda bury the poor sucker in seven different pieces. What a mess! Anyway, it ain't you on that CD, it's him! I know my blues singers. If it ain't him, I'll eat my hat. You got a lotta nerve posin' as a 78 year old blind Black blues singer. Just what are you tryin' to pull off anyway? Huh?
