Attention: William Bonning, Jelley Properties

 

Bill, we picked up your message on Marie’s voice recorder earlier today where I also heard for the first time a message left by Marie’s former husband, Dr. John Ben Stewart [JBS], who for quite obvious reasons now chooses not continue his monologue with his Marie Dion Gevisser his former second wife.

 

He like anyone else who plays it fast and loose with someone I happen to care about now finds himself caught in the middle of his own crosshairs and is now scratching himself doing the old tried and tested routine of blaming others, pointing fingers, never thinking for one single minute to take personal responsibility, to look at how he was raised and say to himself, “Maybe I could do better.”

 

Not, however, on my watch nor for that matter on my nickel. JBS is going to have to pay for his misadventures, so help me God.

 

dnA” [sic] of course you know by now that I believe that not only is God DNA but my rather logical mind tells me that the pursuit of truth is all about evidence, that the better the evidence the better the proof which requires that we go “back & forth” much the same way as in Quantum Mechanics, wouldn’t you agree? 

 

So what do you think of Marie’s assessment, “When the dialogue becomes two monologues it is the beginning of the end”?

 

Getting down to business.

 

Regarding the letter dated May 4th "To: Sellers of 13414 Barbados" that was hand delivered to Marie’s house I believe this past Sunday Evening:

 

First, things are starting to look brighter everywhere and none more so than the sparkle in my wife’s eyes who remains the only seller.

 

Second, Marie had asked for a $15,000 non-refundable deposit but will accept the $6,000 non-refundable deposit with a 45 day escrow period with the buyer, however, not taking occupancy for a period of 60 days from the opening of escrow.

 

Third, you are to make certain that the buyer, Mr. Huffaker, has read all the text as well as examined all the photos contained at www.sellnext.com and understands that none of the art is fake nor for that matter is one single painting or piece of sculpture included in the purchase price; just the outer and inside shell of the house including dishwasher and stove as well as a ceiling fan in the master bedroom to circulate the hot air from a new central heating system Marie will be responsible for installing and of course the various works of art painted on to the inside walls shall remain bringing hopefully the same sort of good spirits that “Eminemated” [sic] from the hand of the painter–artist cum entrepreneur deluxe.

 

In other words we will judge Mr. Huffaker by the same standards that are used in shareholder class action litigation, “Scienter” – culpable state of mind, that actions speak loudest to mention little of the document Maries former husband will soon be asked to sign.

 

There is a mandate fairly recently put forth by Congress known as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which although toothless is nonetheless intended to be an effective response to the excesses of professionals such as accountants and “audirtors” [sic] and of course it is just a question of time before the standards set forth at wwww.sellnext.com are enacted worldwide.

 

So to begin with this rather meek approach requires first, an enhanced independence by auditors, second, “toffee” [sic] standards for non audit assignments which is where the tougher, more rapacious accountants really make their money as they get the “wink & nod” from their colleagues the auditors who have the “inside track.”

 

Many of us have lived through Bosky, who I understand is a neighbor of mine, endured Milken, watched the likes of Kozlowski go home and laugh at the slaps on the wrist they got from the likes of the SEC.

 

Fourth, Marie insists on taking the buyer on a walk through the house and of course I will make myself available if so requested.

 

Fifth, Marie, I assume, would be happy to hear your suggestions in terms of who you might suggest for the Title and Escrow company.

 

Sixth, it is not clear who composed this unsigned letter but clearly the individual-s responsible for "sum" [sic] reason threw in utter garbage such as,

 

"... have reduced our commissions to the minimum we are allowed to help..."

 

I have bolded the four words of particular interest to me to help whoever is responsible for this diatribe take the bubble gum out of their mouth and begin chewing on their words ever so promptly.

 

Neither Marie nor I are familiar with any statute that limits the quality let alone the quantity of food particles you and/or your associates choose to inhale.

 

In other words if your boss who you say does not have an email address, i.e. is out of touch with the Digital Age, were to dictate that you serve yourself and your offspring caviar for breakfast versus say rotten eggs that may have a lifesaving form of penicillin growing both within as well as outside of the shells, then one might assume that you have enough brain particles of matter remaining despite all the crap you may have possibly been subjected to for only God knows the exact number of years, to tell your boss who from what I remember was on very shaky ground when I last saw him, to go get a life.

 

In other words, get into your own business, become your own boss, that by tossing out your vocabulary of every possibly excuse under the sun you might once again become enlightened causing the short-circuits within your brain to begin firing right.

 

Which is to say, why not take a deep breath, spend the weekend in some fukukta place like Vegas, count your pennies which could become worth more than paper money in very short order and at least consider throwing your name into the hat for Marie and I to then decide whether you have what it takes to become a GrubbyGrub and GirlieGarb.com distributor.

 

As you may have read in one of my recent emails we are having an experimental workshop this Friday evening. You and your kids are cordially invited, and remember our motto,

 

“The problems of the world have nothing to do with race, color or religion, simply poor parental religious teachings”

 

And the solution is,

 

“tTOo empower the kids to parent the parents who need the most help” [sic].

 

As you also have undoubtedly read I happened to receive an unsolicited offer to purchase my 6 unit apartment-condo building in Santa Monica within 24 hours of that very attractive lady handing me the material with the cover letter attached. With all that has been going on I have only been able to contact just one of my tenants and the cell phone went dead at a most critical juncture. Oh well.

 

My main concern is with the buyer and his broker who have played it ever so straight and proper and who I will include in this email to at least let them know that I am alive and well and that they won’t have to deal with the executors of my estate if I were to be run over by a say a lift which reminds me I still need to get back to my managers in England one of whom put out his back while lifting a heavy object. 

 

I will be suggesting to Marie that if you are in agreement with all of the above that she also have someone more capable than me in matters pertaining to fukukta legalize documents review the material before escrow is opened, wouldn’t you agree?

 

Gary
