The meek WITH TEETH shall inherit the earth
Bill, today is now yesterday which reminds of something I
saw yesterday while out to lunch with Marie, not that you would think I wasn't
at least somewhat on the ball, wouldn’t you agree?
Actually it was in the men's bathroom of a wonderful Italian
restaurant in the La Jolla flats and we made it there and back without getting
a flat nor did we end up on our backs making it back in time to greet both
Jonathan and the principal
of his elementary school although she may not have recognized me because of the
helmet I was wearing, nothing like wearing down an opponent with a rope-a-dope tactical
display?
The poster read:
The best thing about
baseball is that you can do something about yesterday tomorrow.
In a few minutes I am leaving with Marie to go watch
Jonathan play baseball. If you want to swing by and explain things in person to
Marie while I continue to conduct my focus group into the "stained"
t-shirt business, make her day, a one time opportunity to get to know her
better, although if you had seen her in court on October 24th 2002
you would understand all too well not to mess with her.
Business #3. What does it mean, "loan contingency to be
removed 21 days after open escrow on
Business #2. In the event that the buyer doesn’t come
through is Marie still locked in with you, i.e. anyone else making a back up
offer even if they come off the street, will she, i.e. Marie be required to pay
you folks a commission?
Business #1. I am taking the position that Marie was very
clear in terms of what she expected to net. So my suggestion is that you folks
get your acts together and work on your commission, pretty simply
wouldn’t you agree?
Business #0. You have yet to confirm that you no longer have
an exclusive listing with Marie, wouldn’t you agree? So please do not
avoid answering both this question as well as each sentence that contains a
question mark.
Business #-1. Would you like to hear a great story about a
young estate lawyer who made mention of his two kids as he attempted to pull the
emotional purse strings of my very good friend, Anne L.
Miller who passed away Xmess Day 2001?
A day doesn't go by when I don’t think about this great lady nor the law
firm who could have served her better.[1]
Business #-2. Please explain as clearly as you can your
statement, "I`ve respected and will continue to respect your privacy with
the upmost integrity" as it applies to folks who loiter around for 3 hours
on at least 3 separate occasions and eventually find the courage to come up
with some resemblance of truth with words to the effect, "Let me know when
you eventually get these smucks to find someone willing to meet your price and
if not then perhaps I will buy some of your art for you to make up the
difference as I go farting around your 1,650 square foot house" [sic]?
Business #-3. Please explain in no uncertain terms what you
mean by "risk" when you state, "When someone accepts an offer
subject of a selling of a property their is always a risk?"
If you do not provide me with clear and concise answers to
the questions above both Marie and I think it best not to pursue further these
or any communications, wouldn’t you agree?
Again, all communications including your hand written notes
will in due course appear on the www.sellnext.com
website.

would be around 6,000. I was under the assumsion it was net
after
commission. This is the offer I have for Marie. I got the
buyer up to
641,000. Sorry I couldn`t get it any higher for her. You are
right, I don`t
know Marie as well as you, but in my business their isn`t a
great deal of
good people. Personally I`m a hard working family man with
two kids. In real
estate all my clients and their families come first. I`ve
respected and will
continue to respect your privacy with the upmost integrity.
When someone
accepts an offer subject of a selling of a property their is
always a risk.
My job is to make sure both homes sell and everyone
especially my client is
taken care of 100%. The 8k would be non-refundable. Please
let me know by
today if you would like to continue with this offer.

Bill,
So, I assume therefore the $8K deposit is non-refundable and
that the net to Marie after escrow fees will be $615,360 based on her telling
you she at this moment in time intends to net no less than $615,000.
I am also pleased that you decided to throw her a bone of
some $360 much like the perfect circle you see at Guidance tTOo.
I would have thought though by now you would be well aware
that I don’t go around in circles and when I see folks missing a link or
two after being so well informed then I usually respond with a knuckleball.
Now please take your time in responding to this e-mail, a
suggestion I have made time and again to folks who have allowed their formal
education to interfere with their learning none more so than Professor Aaron
Brown to mention just in passing it might be a good idea for you to take a look
at the recent rounds of “combat” between
myself and Mr. “Brownnose.”
Did you answer my question as to how long you suggest this
escrow period last before the prospective buyer forfeits their deposit money
affording Marie the luxury of taking me first class to
Did you also answer my question that you folks no longer
have the listing on her house although perhaps I should have added the word
“exclusive” before the word “listing” in my previous
email?
Have you yet noticed the shift that is occurring as a new
world order takes effect with our great President Bush at the helm but with a
grass roots effort of support that knows no bounds?
Undoubtedly you were simply using the words “If they
have everything in line we should be fine” as nothing more than filler
since it really didn’t say very much wouldn’t you agree?
Now I am not going to ask you what you meant by “we
should be fine” because I know you were not really thinking of Marie for
the simple reason you have only just met her whereas I have known her going on
a decade and I still am not certain what the word “fine” means to
her although the possibility exists that you are simply far more in tune with
her needs which amount to very little, most of all she does not want to be bothered
with small talk.
I almost bought it last night, arriving extraordinarily
late, more than an hour after she had completed a 5 course meal at our rock
cabin and so far not even her chicken sandwich
dinners could be considered ordinary, quite amazing this woman wouldn’t
you agree?
I got waylaid at several points along the way including
getting a speeding ticket on an open stretch of road that normally has my dog
starting to whine as I exceed “190” [sic] miles an hour. Thankfully
though I had slowed down to speak with Sebastian Capella
who had captivated my attention.[2]
Nevertheless I asked for the two young highway patrol
officers to give me “a break”
thinking that they still might decide to take me away in handcuffs; no
registration or proof of insurance to mention little of my license plates
“DOG KO” and most of all my inability to respond to “Are you
telling me that the meek don’t have teeth?” when I tried explaining
the Piranha swimming around in the back of the car.
I was never quite certain that keeping Piranha in the event
of a rainy day was illegal in the United States which reminds me to let Jeffrey
Krinsk know that should he decide to do the right thing and let his neighbor downstream at
least think about pursuing a claim against Jeffrey’s insurance company
for the flood the other evening he might want to think twice given the
possibility that his neighbor may decide to play it fast and loose and suggest
that Piranha I dropped into the Krinsk’s koi ponds had eaten one of his
offspring which springs many other things to mind none more important than
Jeffrey’s retaining walls which could possibly have edged their way on to
his neighbor’s property.
I happen to have it from a rather well-informed source that
the former owner of this rather lavish estate, who happened to be a former
mayor of San Diego, was at one time cited for ethics violation although I think
she simply broke the law in not building her retaining walls to code.
In the end I was rather pleasantly surprised to see that I
had been written up for doing 90 miles an hour in a 70 mile an hour zone which
is remarkable considering that my Mini Cooper S idles at 90 miles an hour.
Now even if I had told Marie that I still m
It is unlikely, however, my heroics would have alleviated
her pain from having to twiddle her toes in the luxury and tranquility she has
grown accustomed to and undoubtedly deserves. And she could care less about me
winning some Nobel Prize since she knows all too well she won’t see a
dime.
With that said, even though Ms. Debbie is “off the
case” what does that mean in terms of people like Mr. Fiske who as you
know since I am sure Ms. Debbie fully briefed you before taking
“off” on why Mr. Fiske and God knows who else spent more than 3
hours on 3 separate occasions viewing Marie’s house and when eventually
confronted by Marie all Mr. Fiske had to say was “Here, I’ll give
you my phone number and when you are ready to move I might be interested in
some of your art.” In other words, Mr. Bonning please do not avoid any
more of my questions.
Please refer this email on to the president of Jelly
Properties or simply bypass the head and have the company’s legal counsel
contact me directly. He-she may be better equipped to help explain to you
exactly what it is that I am looking for and while you are at please have
either the president and/or your legal counsel be prepared to explain to me how
usual is it for someone even if he-she is a “good client” to float
around a 1,650 square house on at least 3 separate occasions for at least 3
hours, never make an offer, tell the owner when they eventually get to see her
in the flesh and not in one of her paintings that all they are interested is in
buying some of her art when she eventually sells her house and then leaves the
seller with their phone number?
And one more
time, I would like if it is not too much of inconvenience a complete list of
everyone who walked through this property on your and
Very

well. We can keep
house goes into escrow we can give them 21 days to remove
all contingencies.
At that time if they can`t perform we can bump them for a
back up offer if
we have one.If they have everything in line we should be
fine. Debbie has

Bill, I’ll run it by Marie but it doesn’t sound
like these folks have much “skin in the game.”
What do you think would be a reasonable amount of money they
should be required to place into escrow in terms of a non-refundable deposit
given what I assume is your strong comfort level that their home should sell in
26 days. In other words give some thought to Marie’s time value of money.
Please understand one other not so inconsequential item
other than Marie’s property being tied up while you and the rest of the
world go about helping this potential buyer sell their home, all our
communications will be placed on the www.sellnext.com
website.
Don’t forget to say hello to Debbie in the event she chooses not to
read this email. I assume she has not returned to the mid-west?
In other words not only should you think before
communicating with us make certain you have your bases solidly covered while
looking out first and foremost for Marie’ best interest. Make no mistake
I haven’t forgotten one item including Debbie’s failure to leave
Marie a copy of the amended sales agreement with Jelly Properties at the time
Marie signed the agreement, the Digital Age to soon help replace those who play
it fast and loose, wouldn’t you agree?
Thinking of sleep overs as Danielle just came home from
school, what more can you tell me about Steve Fiske and what became of the list
of those “80 good clients” who had seen Marie’s house?
Please also confirm that Jelly Properties no longer has the
listing on Marie’s house.

The offer is for 632,000 contigent on her selling her home
in Carmal Valley.
What I suggest is countering at 641,000 with 8,000 put into
escrow as a
deposit. If we can get them to accept your net will be
615,360. The homes in
that area have an average time on the market of 26 days.
With the offer is a
solid pre-approval letter. Thank you for getting back to me,

[1] That “L” hyperlink shows a photo of Mrs. Miller taken at The Cave after she fell asleep reading my eldest brother’s poetry book titled, Cun-ning Linguist, that contains a hodgepodge of blank verses some going back to when he was just a teenager.
Every family has its “dirty linen” and in our family the dirtiest piece that I am aware of is a lady by the name of Aida Parker who was for a very brief time married to my uncle Joe Ash, a former city “counsilman” [sic] and deputy mayor of Durban, South Africa.
My uncle can be seen in the “cun” hyperlink immediately to the left of Ms. Parker who is seated on the far right with her “Is” [sic] pointed toward my father whose eyes are closed while my mother seems to be the only one fully aware of the photographer. I have yet to see a bad picture of my mother, perhaps the worst being on her marriage day to my father. Over the years “the worst” photo has suffered quite a bit of wear and “tear” [sic].
My parent’s marriage lasted some 30 odds years unlike the first marriage of my uncle who despite being smart and good-looking has had his share of bad luck certainly when it came to marriage although I know you know by now that I don’t believe in the “luk” [sic] thing, simply hard work and hard play which attracts both the best and the brightest and every so often a very rotten apple tries to get close, wouldn’t you agree?
The last hyperlink contains a photo of my mentor, Amos Wright, taken in 1954 probably about the same time Joe Ash was married to Aida Parker although I could be off by a decade or so.
All I recall being said about the demise of Joe Ash and Aida Parker’s marriage was that my uncle liked the ladies although it could have been the “phillies” [sic]. My very good friend Michael Grant who you see in the “councilman” hyperlink comes from Philidelphia . He is the Black fighter who like my business partner Devin Standard I hope to one day introduce to Ms. Parker.
One of the interesting things I heard fairly recently that is contributing to the low birth rate in Germany is how white German women are making the rounds on the beaches of Jamaica looking for well-built Black gentlemen and deciding to make their nest on foreign shores much like what I suspect Darwin recognized some 200 years ago while white German men go to places like Bangkok, deposit their sperm and then return by air carrying back the flu and whathaveyou?
As I have mentioned previously my one neighbor Sammy and his derelict
buddy Mark used to talk a lot about the benefits of the pickings in places like

I don’t recall anyone within our family let
alone the community ever taking Ms. Parker to task for her bigoted and racist
views. Ms. Parker is in store for quite a dishonorable mention in the book I am
writing, M
While we fail to keep those close to us in check it is no wonder the difficulties we ultimately face when the most rapacious then go on to breed political children who are both indifferent and capable of wrecking havoc on the positives that are out there, knowing full well that it takes just one negative to upset the entire balance of things which is why it is of critical importance that these folks don’t get their hands on weapons of mass destruction, remembering that the worst of the worst political leaders have come from the outside, much like Hitler who was Austria and Dr. Hendrik Verwoed who came from Holland to plant his Nazi sympathizing seeds on fertile soil and why I think it is a good thing that only someone born in the United States can become President, among many of the great things about the United States of America . Hail to our chief, the great President George W. Bush.
I don’t remember ever meeting Aida Parker although I seem to recall some folks saying there was a resemblance between her and Eva Braun in terms of their looks. No doubt Hitler’s lover did not have a command of the English language quite like that of Ms. Parker who I tried communicating with for the first time back on March 12th 2003.
