Dear David and Neil - Welcome on board. I
don’t know if you’ve already sent me a budget showing what you
expect in terms of turnover and expenses in both the restaurant and the bed and
breakfast side of the business but at some point I would like to see something
of that nature. I am going to want a percentage of turnover along with a
minimum fee payment with payments beginning 3 months down the line, i.e. June 1st. As part of the deal you are getting a bedroom
to live in and of course if your “gesture” of “i promise we will not let you down” are not to my liking then at anytime I will have you shown to the
door and if I am out in lallaland then you can count on the executor of my
estate Mr.
Having read the discourse between myself
and the previous m
There was this one TV Network announcer
here in the
Once one allows anything, just one
element, to get out of balance there is the risk the entire equation will turn
negative. Two negatives can in fact make a positive but there is nothing quite
like having two positive individuals to propel things forward exponentially. My
goal with Ccrest is for people all around the world to see it as a lightening
rod for good which means it has to be positive in all respects including making
a profit naturally leaving folks always with a very positive impression.
To begin with that may prove difficult but
there is nothing I enjoy more than being proven wrong in terms of how to
improve the world order. I happen to believe that we are programmed at birth to
do the right thing, to play to our positives and to mitigate our weaknesses and
it is only when our sequencing is interfered with that things go haywire. Some
folks may think I am walking a very fine line when I attack those, especially
human carnivores, who forget that our canine teeth have been all but watered
down who are just waiting for me to slip on what they believe to be a high wire
act.
I wish everyone well particularly my
adversaries for I have learned how to play the “negative game” as
well as the “positive game” by simply inverting the equation much
like turning a wave inside out, on its axii, although flipping both the x and
the y axis simultaneously requires both dexterity and a steady hand for one
never wants to see things go topsy-turvy-curvy, i.e. a tailspin is all but
impossible to break away from. I make it a point though never to chase my tail
nor do I believe in going around in circles to mention little of never once
having crashed and burned but make no mistake I am very scarred. I could easily
make my e-mails shorter but they assist me in sifting the wheat from the chaff
while constantly gaining momentum, never though allowing myself to become part
of someone else’s collateral damage.
If you were on my email list going back
awhile you would have noticed that my e-mails are in fact getting both shorter
and crisper. I want to avoid us all ending up as toast for it is hard to chew
on especially for the elder. Older people have a much tougher time getting
through my E-mails than younger folks properly schooled. I spend quite a
considerable amount of time with young people some who I simply meet in the
street or at a grocery check out counter where “Queue Theory” is
put into practice. If I am able to get my message across in terms of what we
are doing at nextraterrestrial.com without the cashier breaking his-her stride
I feel quite good.
Yesterday’s shopping at Trader Joes
which is a more upscale grocery store took longer than usual. I went to pick up
a couple of items for the vegetarian curry my Dad and I were tasked with
preparing as my “travel companion”
had simply planned to just show up and be served and of course both my father
and I wanted to impress Marie with not only the best of ingredients but we
could accomplish the impossible on time. The only thing I have ever made in my
life besides for an egg or tTOo and boil water on the odd occasion is make
curry which my father taught me how to do when he deposited me in Chicago some
25 years ago this coming March 17th just a week before my 21st
birthday. So being put to the test, substituting tofu for lamb, required
nothing short of divine intervention.
But it all started out on a very positive
footing with the female 21-year-old cashier grabbing on ever so fast to NT’s
mission,
“Its about solving
the problems of the world without going the lawsuit route, empowering the kids
to parent the parents who need the most help with a little of bit of this and
that…Quantum Mechanics made easy for those over age 22 who are mostly brain
dead, as in EmanANDdog…M
Maybe I said, “watching
great sex.” Only after I was done did she let me know that her 22nd
birthday was next week. As I exited the store several people came up to me
asking for my business card. Were it not for the pitch of the howling I
probably would have spent another half an hour pitching the website never
forgetting to let folks know that we accept all negotiable instruments
including “Van Goughs, Rembrandts and we will not turn our noses up at
first edition Leonardo Da Vinci manuscripts.”
The pitch, however, coming from the Nissan
Pathfinder was now a high C, a train smash just waiting to happen. For some
ungodly reason my father had decided to join in on the howling. It is tough
reprimanding anyone who is going on 80 especially my
Perhaps if we placed a photo of my dog on
top of say a button that produces his unique howl right at the entrance to the
café it might not only attract more customers but dog lovers may in fact leave
bigger tips and of course I would expect my override fee calculation to include
all your tips.
In my email yesterday to Ms.
Ms. Schiff though was some three years or
so away from being “over the hill” when I first met her. Nor do I
think I got into how my mother actually made her money to mention little of how
I think she could have made far more untold fortunes if she simply took a
fraction of a percentage fee from the estates of the men she introduced her top
of the line models tTOo.
I never once saw my mother’s financial statement for the simple reason
all of us kids understood from a very early age that we would be inheriting
absolutely nothing other than a good name and of course the assumption was that
we would have the minds to make the most of it.
Ipsofacto why I am prepared to do whatever
it takes to preserve that asset including if necessary going to war with even
family members who play it “fast and
loose.” I have a cousin, Mark Gevisser, who is a white journalist in
South Africa and I eagerly await his autobiography of Thabo Mbeki, who I
believe is the current Prime Minister of South Africa although my pal
I doubt that Mr. Manuel is out searching
for the Perfect Wave nor for that matter is he anywhere near close enough to
understanding mathematics to know much about nuclear physics or, God forbid,
Quantum Mechanics but for some reason he thinks that by simply ignoring my
emails he will find a comfortable resting spot. Like JW August of KGTV here in
Perhaps my Dad thought that if he joined
in with Pypeetoe’s wolf howls it might in fact calm down the dog, kinda
like a mating call? I have been putting my Dad through his paces ever since he
arrived here this past Monday. My sister and I have probably the most in common
of all my siblings in that neither of us have little or no time for crybabies
especially those who cry wolf. It is not difficult for my
All three of us are enjoying the hot early
morning sun that is just creeping over the rather large hill in front of the
cabin. I am in an antique rocking chair I picked up at an estate auction of a
friend of mine, Charles, who recently passed away. My Dad doesn’t like to
sit much and is standing right next to the flag pole that will soon hopefully
have a new flag with the words emblazoned; The meek
WITH TEETH shall inherit the earth. Pypeetoe is simply laying out flat just
like a rug which reminds me of one of the latest scandals to hit the South
African business community.
From rags to riches is not an uncommon story
in places like
When, however, my father decides to go “to war” all
I can say is “watch out.”
My
My
I can go backwards and forwards and around
and about but rarely if ever do I lose my place and if so just for a moment or
two. Marie never showed up last night as she probably needed a peaceful night
sleep although she made some crazy excuse about having to stick around the
house this morning in order to be there as a prospective buyer of her house was
coming by to make a bid. I have no idea why she is so hell bent on selling the
house for not only does she not need the money she will probably have to make
move on her own even if it is to a house right on the beach as I head off on my
“road show.”
My father though can be counted on to
assist. Marie also mentioned something about her not wanting to get caught in
traffic which seems a bit of balonia since she has
the Eminem CD and I know she has the volume turned all the way up since I
borrowed her car the other day and almost had what little remains of my hearing
being blasted out the window.
There is in fact just a little window of
an opportunity to get spaceship earth into high gear and this again is another
point I probably failed to finish off on in my e-mail to
Anyone who knows the first thing about the
game of soccer knows that the game is one and lost based on the activity
occurring in the so-called “negative space” just like when painting
on to a canvas one has to pay attention almost from the start in terms of what
is occurring in “negative space.”
It is all about balancing out the negative with the positive but one needs to
find the right moment when to pounce. Again, one must always pay attention to
the shadows to
mention little of shadowy figures.
Paying attention to those on the far left
and the far right, saves a lot of time, just like when it comes to mathematics
and statistics for it is all about standard deviations, the exceptions that
prove out the rule. Most folks for some strange reason want to just fit in as
promulgated by the so-called Bell Shaped Curve worrying about the time they
have left in order to reach the top and once they get there they suddenly work
out that no matter how much perfume they put on whether it be the most
expensive of fragrances their shit still stinks without realizing that it is
the crap food they have been eating all their lives to mention little of all
the bullshit they have inhaled along with other peoples airborne feces that now
has them rotting from the waste up.
Man has in fact taken a perfect machine
invented by God and made it into a vehicle with built in obsolescence. I try
never to forget the important
anniversaries like when first meeting people of prominence like David Ben
Gurion and of course I happen to believe in providence.
There is, however, no acting with me
although I very much like to have fun but I have found that the best way for me
to propel myself forward is to work hard and play hard all at the same time,
conscious of the positive and negative forces circulating around me and using
them to my advantage. It is much like a game of chess but as opposed to getting
your opponent to play to your advantage I try to use the forces of nature, as
best I understand them, to achieve overwhelming success.
It is though important to line up one’s
ducks ever so carefully, different and world’s apart from stacking the
deck which is what most rapacious business people do who only understand given
their rotting brains that the path to victory is through superior and
overwhelming forces.
With that said I need for you plan
accordingly for the days ahead that may require you being equipped to handle
the rising tide and make certain you have very hip music playing night and day
and you will never go wrong with playing Eminem as long as the neighbors don’t
object and make certain the bathrooms and kitchen are spotless.
Please check with Margaret who I believe
lives a couple of houses down the road if for any reason she finds Eminem
offensive. You can let her know that there are far more pornographic things
going on in this universe than a guy with highlights in his hear telling it
exactly the way it is and why the young, those who haven’t let their
wants exceed their needs, whose formal education has yet to interfere with
their learning flock to places like TRO in New York where one day I might
appear.
It is my understanding that Minehead has
one of the “meanest” tides in all of
Over the course of the next several days I
will be sending out a variety of emails some of which I may copy you on but as
I said to the previous m
