you talking about?

It's where it hurts you most?

Who says anything

hurts me, alright?

Pain's written all over you.

Come here, let me

rub your back.

Look, I don't want nothing happening

past what's already happened.

You don't want to be with

me in no kind of way.

Why don't I?

I just ain't.

I ain't a guy you'd end up

liking that's all.

You don't mean that Samson.

You wouldn't have come back

if you didn"t like me

and want me to like you.

There's this rich friend

of mine in prison.

We called him the Buddha.

He used to love telling me about all

the fancy dishes he loved to eat.

Shrimp and...

lobster.

He told me when I get out...

that I should find the best damn

restaurant there is...

and I should try some things.

You got a right to taste what

other people get to taste.

He write you a check for all that?

I got money.

Are you inviting me to

dinner Samson?

Is that what this is?

Yeah.

And I'll buy you some

new clothes too.

And I am gonna give you a good

bare naked rub.

Look, I don't want you to

rub on me. Alright.

It might go better between us

in that area if

if you let me relax you some.

There's no problem with me

in that area, alright?

Everything's working fine

down there.

I ain't worried about it Samson.

I just want you to relax is all.

Just chill.

We have some fun.

I'm gonna buy us a car.

A car?

Yeah, and we're gonna drive

it to the restaurant

where live music is playing.

And all the help, the're gonna

wear those black tuxedos.

Alright, how about you dress in all black

and I dress in all white?

What?

Alright, you wear white and

I'll wear black.

Why? Why? Samson.

Ain't we Looking to make

some noise?

Can we get one with

guts, Samson?

With a stick.

Growin' up in the

Oklahoma foster homes,

the next best thing to f***ing

was leaning back jn

some farm boy's rip-roarer.

Vroom! Vroom! Vroom!

Oh!

Especially if rip roar speeding.

Here's what we could do Samson.

We could use some of your money

to score with huh?

I could be flying.

No.

This is a beauty huh?

Remember that rich

friend I told you about?

He made Charlie Rankin see he

born to be something special.

As to keep me in the

nothing that he was.

Who's that?

Who's who? Charlie Rankin.

Just an old con I used to know.

Follow me.

I saw it Samson.

You like that one?

It's way more than like Samson.

This is the nuts!

Woo! Hey!

What? Where you going?

I'm gonna go buy it.

What?

I'm gonna buy it.

That's the one you want right?

You put down your name and

license number too.

No.

It's all hers, it's a gift.

Can't you go any faster?

Come on, seriously!

I'm already going 70.

Don't you want to see what

this baby's got?

He has taught creative writing at a number of colleges and universities, including Randolph Macon College, Lynchburg College and the University of Virginia. He grew up on a horse and dairy farm in rural upstate New York and currently lives in Charlottesville, Virginia. Patrick Andersen, in a Washington Post review of Jones’s 2006 novel Boot Tracks, termed the phrase ‘literate noir’ to describe the tense, psychological nature of Joes work. And in a starred review of Jones’s 1999 psychological thriller Deepwater, Booklist critic Bill Ott described Jones as a ‘leading contemporary author of country noir, a subgenre whose roots trace back to James M. Cain’s Post Man Always Rings Twice.’ A film version of Deepwater was released under the same name in 2006, starring Lucas Black, Peter Coyote and Leslie Anne Warren. Jones’s own screenplay of his 1996 novel "A Single Shot" was made into a film of the same name in 2012 and released in 2013. The film version of the novel stars Sam Rockwell, William H. Macy, Jeffrey Wright, and Kelly Reilly. more…
