I say our jet like we have one jet but I’m pretty sure there are lots. When you really have a jet—rather than a jet has you—then you do not need to know how many jets you have. You possess the quality of jetness and that is all. The quality of jetness is not only about physical jetness it is about your modus again or in fact the world’s modus in dealing with you. When you just travel by air there are forms and customs and such but when you possess the quality of jetness there are not. There is just a guy on the runway in Canada called Barton.

“Hi I’m Barton I’m your excise liaison for the Platinum Traveler Global Program how can I help you today?”

“Hi Barton my name is Jack Price I possess the quality of jetness I wish to land in Switzerland with my jet here is money.”

“Yes Mr. Price one thing I see on the manifest here we have items seven and twenty-two and I wonder if maybe you are doing a little joshing.”

“There is no josh Barton.”

“Thing is sir those are what we call red-ticket items sir they’re kinda not okay.”

“Well let’s take them one by one Barton and see what we can do.”

“Well okay Mr. Price so item seven is a human head on a stick?”

“It is completely okay really.”

“It is sir?”

“Yes Barton it is that would be Fred. He is a really interesting piece by the artist Banjo Telemark which I’m proud to own. We’ve got him in Perspex here and he’s all cased up for transport but he comes with me everywhere you see like a kind of personal good-luck piece.”

“I don’t know of Mr. Telemark sir.”

“No he is a very exclusive sort of artist Barton like a kind of secret brand for the haute concept set is what. It’s like you know the Turner Prize in London where they give money to some really fucked-up piece like a cow cut in half right?”

“I do sir yes I guess.”

“Well Banjo Telemark pisses on the Turner Prize Barton. He would not accept the Turner Prize if they offered it to him because it is selling out. Banjo is like the unknown god of art in the twenty-first century and he is completely uncompromising. He does not explain or mediate his work and he does not supply provenances for his items so I have no paperwork on Fred.”

“That’s kinda your problem right there sir.”

“I am very rich Barton.”

“Yes sir.”

“I am super-giant-fucking-jet rich. My friends here are also individually super-giant-jet-rich this means that we are like exponentially rich although mathematically that is not true of course but functionally in the real universe and world it is true. We are singularity rich if you like, Barton do you know what that means?”
