the satchel of life: Free For All Fridays With "Groovy Roovy"

Eruviel the busboy, also known as, Groovy Roovy is one friggin character! He may just be the strangest employee at the restaurant - and that is no easy feat!! He has such a bizarre and insane sense of humor. With his mixture of broken English and pantomime, he is like a modern day Charlie Chaplin. He'll ask you the oddest questions out of the blue and follow it by making the most random, goofy-ass face! There is no explaining this guy!

Now, the strangest incident with Groovy Roovy was just a few months ago. To this day I don't think Jeff or I laughed as hard! It started when Eruviel acted out for me a scenario of him snorting something and then reaching around to his asshole with a trance-like look on his face with one hand then reach up with his other hand as if he was grasping at something. (This story hasn't even gotten strange yet!) This just blew me away! So, since I couldn't get a straight answer from him as to what it meant I started asking around to his buddies. My Spanglish inquiries didn't yield much info until I got to Wilson. From him I "heard" this story: "When Eruviel was born he was taken to an exorcist who put a finger up his butt. This drove the infant Eruviel so crazy that he felt like he had to climb the walls." Now, remember, this is what I "heard"! When I went back to Jeff with the information I garnered, we began to justify it by filling in the blanks! We figured maybe Roovy was born in the deepest rain forest and it was normal for babies to be taken to exorcists. Perhaps his parents saw something odd and frightening in the infant Eruviel that needed to be dealt with by a witch-doctor type:

Our imaginations and racist theories were running wild! I had to confirm this story with someone else. Thanks to Santiago, we were able to get this story: "One day when Eruviel was bored (not born) he took some ecstasy (not exorcist) at home. He got so fucked up that he played with his butt hole but then went a little crazy and wanted to climb the walls! (Thus the odd dance-like display of tickling his butt and reaching upwards.)
