A Brief History of The Com Corp:

My name is Ronen Ben. At least that's what they'll put on my tombstone. I was born at a young age on the mud banks of the mighty Hudson River.
My mother, an ageing silver screen pin-up gal left me for the life fast cars and hard drugs while my father just left me for dead. Take a deep breath and I can still smell the dead rattlesnake and cheap mexican perfume as my folks took off in their 85' Chevy Nova to Juarez, Mexico. All I had left was my grandfather's watch, a weeks worth of Mezcal and 12 years of life under my belt. My only friend was 8 inches of cold steel named "Buck."

I left the shores of Brooklyn to find a better life then sweeping up the needles and cigarette butts at the Coney Island freak show. I stowed away on the SS Simplex between loudmouthed chickens and a pig in need of a serious attitude adjustment. That's where I ran into Mr. Lewitt.

Geoffery "Loosey" Lewitt was a man of the world with a excessive taste for scotch. He made his way through life drumming out disco beats on battered skins for anyone who was willing to pay. It was his idea to head out to Bangkok, Thailand since he heard you could get a Russian woman and two snuffs of opium for an ounce of silver. All I wanted was a warm bed and a hot meal.

I stole an accordion from a pocked faced hooker named Margarite in a broken down brothel outside Chiang Mia. Mr. Lewitt and I used it to pay our way through the faded streets of what was once considered the crown jewel of a proud nation. I'd play creaky old love songs for dancing tourists and fat old woman with gold in their teeth while "Loosey" made off with their wallets in his sticky fingers.

That's when Jason walked into our lives.

I was 17 at the time. Jefferson could still out drink a Kraut though Buck's sense of humor had dulled a bit. Still, I knew I could count on Buck getting the last laugh. We met Jason at the Salty Dog in Bolivia where me and Ol' "Loosey" had a weekly spot entertaining the local gauchos with dirty songs about girls in red skirts. Jason Randall was a fast talker. He was raised among the gimps, pimps and hustlers of Wall Street and was always the first to smell out opportunity. He was a child of the cold, modern world.

He told us of our former homes and the nightmare that engulfed them. He told us of Corporations only interested in profits and net gains. C.E.O.s that are only interested in yachts and crushing the broken worker. He asked us to go back with him to Ny. Back to land that had turned its back us. It was time to begin a new kind of Corporation. A Corporation for the people and by the people. A Corporation for the proliferation of dance, sweat and bliss. It was time to put a face on the faceless.

Is that how it went down? Was there really an 85' Chevy and whore named Margarite? The details are not important.

The Communication Corporation was created to give out nonsensical joy to a world with too much meaning. The Communication Corporation is your corporation. It's our corporation.
