People are arranged so that sooner or later will move away from the one who gives them more than usual, and ponder: and it-what's the benefit?

In every situation there are usually a figure whose influence in any case should not be underestimated.

The secret of being a top-notch con man is being able to know what the mark wants, and how to make him think he's getting it.
What's the secret to a good con man - he understands what the dude is necessary and how to convince the dude that he gets it.

Everything else looks as usual - chickens running around in the grass on the roofs of mud houses, the grasshoppers jump from Bush to Bush, sagebrush kids panicles rounded up the flies with dried fish, and they rise the black clouds - everything is as usual on a summer day.
