Dear Margaret,
I am under the gun right now and so I will
be typing rather fast as I have at least 3 other emails to get out within the
hour having already put in my two for the day in front of a computer screen.
When I was first introduced to my “travel
companion” who also happens to be my “significant other”
commonly known as Marie I was told by my lawyer-pal at the time, King Golden
Jnr, Esq. that Marie was a “witch.” Now that didn’t alarm me
since I always knew my mother was a witch coming from a line of people who
communicated with the dead and God only knows what else although my mother
would consider herself “orthodox Jewish.” Moreover being raised in
Africa witch doctors were abundant and this was not something one could blame
on the white settlers perhaps the only thing. And of course there are
exceptions to any rule and why one shouldn’t paint with a broad brush.
Nevertheless to cover myself I began
calling Marie “Tokalosh” which is the word I understood meant
witchdoctor in Zulu. It may not in fact be correct but it is something which
seems to have stuck with Marie who has a habit of sticking to her knitting, not
interfering in other peoples business but every so often I drag her into mine
which sometimes has her then casting a spell on me.
Her ten-year-old boy just the other
morning was looking at my computer screen and commented, “
It was the morning I went to have a chat with
Jonathan’s school principal to see what she thought of my next moves and to
test out whether or not I am equipped to reenter the world of wheelers and
dealers taking however, just a miniscule of profit. I have taken a relatively
long sabbatical while pondering the problems of the world most importantly why
small businesses cannot compete and the odds of success are less than going to
Las Vegas which is where a lot of successful people go to when deciding that
the federal and state governments haven’t taxed them enough, although in
places like South Africa it was a way to avoid paying taxes by the rich.
An expression I picked up from my
step-father who likes to gamble at the “tables” and who helped
build up a fair sized clothing company in South Africa from scratch that
launched many a “dis-h-abled” [sic]
career is, “When I make a mistake I pay for it and when you make a
mistake you pay for it.” I think I have finally worked out a number of
things including coming up with my version of unified theory of the workings of
the universe although I simply borrowed a little expression from Einstein
commonly known as e=mc² which works wonders, mostly though within spaceship
earth but starts to collapse as one starts to examine the cosmos ever more
carefully.
One though has to start small and make
sure that no one gets lost along the way, that is the children of course. Most
adults by the time they reach age 22 are essentially worthless in terms of
their ability to figure things out for themselves and why those who make it are
not necessarily the smartest, have little or no inventiveness but have the “gift
of the gab” to market the product, leverage other peoples ideas, use
other peoples’ money and most of the time as we all know the greatest
fortunes have been stolen.
I only started speaking at age 3 and when
I first met Marie one of the things she said she liked about me was that I
spoke little and when I did I sometimes made sense. You have to understand
Marie is a rather precise person. Not only can she compute better than your
average high school math teacher but she understands proportions and has
maintained a rather well proportioned body despite approaching the half
centennial mark give of take a decade or tTOo.
For sum reason whenever things get a
little too close to home I resort to compromise wanting to avoid the
possibility of offending. Lately though I have figured out that little or
nothing is served in mincing
words, dotting “is” and crossing “ts” and there really
is nothing wrong in teasing those who have played it fast and loose even if
they happen to be family members and the last thing I intend to do right now is
define the word, “family.”
The bottom line is that I generally react
like a bat out of hell when someone even attempts to interfere with my brain
sequencing and of course the more intellectual one is the more likely you might
resort to such moves especially if you have been on the receiving end of my “bat
e-mails” which come in the form of knuckleballs. You would just need to
have been on my E-mail list since
I tTOo
began my most recent little project with the scratchings you see on the home
page of NextraTerrestrial. Not much has changed on this website over the course
of the past 6 odd months other than a hyperlink or tTOo that is all
geared toward getting folks to focus on things that matter.
The game of chess is pure mathematics very
different to sowing a garment which requires quite some dexterity to mention
how little brain power one really needs to drive something like a clothing
factory, not to suggest that Alan Zulman, my step-father, wasn’t intelligent.
He happens to be probably above average in terms of IQ which is considerable
when one considers that most South Africans I knew growing up were mostly brain
dead. Alan though ran the factory while his partner Abe Dubin took care of
marketing and sales.
Marketing is as close as it gets to
science with most people who are in business agreeing that sales is more art
form than it is science. Eventually they brought in outsiders who played along.
When, however, it came time to settle their differences, bank accounts to boot
it would have taken a team of more than brain dead South African accountants to
figure things out given the fact like with most clothing companies the ones
doing all the knitting didn’t quite benefit as much as those who traveled
overseas stealing other peoples ideas while setting up foreign bank accounts
subjected to little if any taxes.
Even if one has a legitimate excuse that
one is hell bent on dying the richest person in the grave it is still an
excuse. I am not quite sure though how I am going to pay for my computer system
being overloaded but in the end I know it will all balance out. For all I know
when I recently deleted the cluster of emails I may have in fact blown away
offers from folks wanting to make a contribution to our many causes in fact I
know I did. They were, however, slowing down my computer although I cannot say
for certain exactly what has been the cause of my computer constantly crashing.
It doesn’t however, seem to be bug.
I don’t think
I will be watching the situation more
closely then I did when the previous m
The instant we allow anyone to get away
with nonsense we are in fact doing nothing more than allowing them to plough
the land to seed apples of discontent and the more they plough, the more they
think they own the land the most likely they will turn those ploughs in to
weapons of mass destruction, swords to boot. I somehow m
I have written at length about the game of
soccer being all about understanding the “negative space” on a
field where the ball is no where to be found but those operating in this area
are generally the ones who come out of nowhere and find themselves in a pivotal
position to either win or save the game. Most great discoveries have come from
folks way out in left field, doodling sometimes I assume even sitting on the
toilet thinking about all the kuka they have accumulated over their life time
that now makes their buns burn.
With that said, I always try and look for
a win-win situation in everything I do.
Seacrest or Ccrest which is how I spell
this incredible spot that the Costers were kind enough to sell to me in rather
“trying” circumstances is as important to me as anything else that I am
currently involved with. Some of the projects I am working on can in fact take
one’s breath away just as this area did to me when I first visited it in
December 2001 where they trusted me on my word that I would buy the place at
their offering price even though I didn’t have but a few pounds in my
pocket to mention little of no identification. Not only did the Costers take
the property off the market they later without any further confirmation of who
I was or knowledge of my rather considerable means later allowed me to stay
with them as I “cooled my heals” having done more than just a little
bit of walking around the neighborhood.
When I first ran across their place I was
in fact well on my way to doing the 600 mile coastal walk although I had been
mostly going back and forth in the forest between their property and Burgundy
Chapel perhaps in preparation for this marathon event. A gentleman whose last
name was Stewart while trying to guide me on how I could cut the walk in half
by going cross country told me about the Coster’s place that he thought
was still for sale. When I approached Ccrest I saw no sign since it was late at
night and my teeth were beginning to chat a little with it being several
degrees below freezing.
The rest is in fact all history. Although
I stayed a couple of nights at the Costers I did in fact have another great
location that afforded me to see both the sunrise and the sunset something I
hadn’t done in quite a while. Whereas Ccrest is altogether invigorating
some of the folks I am doing “battle with” are rather rapacious
individuals who would probably prefer at this stage if I simply stopped
breathing.
Unfortunately for them I happen to more
than simply believe in God and know that only he can take the light out of me
just like he alone is responsible for providing light. My hope though is that
everything will balance out soon, that we will recognize the gifts each one of
us has been given and together we can make this entire world to what it was in
the beginning, a garden of Eden along with tremendous advances that have come
with the Digital Age that empowers each and everyone of us to stand up knowing
that what we have to say not only counts but we should be measured in our
words.
I have developed along the way a
numerological system that I refer to as Guidance tTOo or Next tTOo
which is based on the word NEXTRATERRESTRIAL which is tied into the website
Nextraterrestrial.com. I use it to help get folks on to a common footing
beginning with the phrase “The meek shall inherit the earth.” I
believe there are two words missing from Mathew 5.5 and they are what I believe
constitutes what has caused man to go astray for some 2,000 years plus. It is
my hope that the phrase The meek WITH TEETH shall inherit the earth will
captivate folks to think differently and if someone else can come up with a
system that better answers the $64,000 question then I will embrace their
system of measuring words.
It is sticks and stone that break bones
and of course we now know for certain that it is words that kill, that incite
the masses to go to war although the masses have up until now had very little
say in how much blood they will ultimately spill. As a general rule it is the
poor who pay the biggest price but with the impending world wide depression and
along with the Digital Age at our fingertips we have I believe one opportunity
to bring balance to this world.
It is a battle that will have each and
everyone on this planet hopefully spared but glued to their TV sets and
computer screens as we at NextraTerrestrial take on the relatively few out of
control rapacious individuals who alone are responsible for upsetting the
balance of nature in their quest to die rich sucking up everything they can in
their “accumulation campaign” using their ill-gotten gains to buy
off politicians who then make the rules that keep the have nots from getting
their share of the God’s spoils, the spoiled brats that they are.
Not much has changed from the days of
Plato other than of course the Digital Age which mostly scares the hell out of
those who do most of the lying, stealing and cheating. Margaret it may be tough
at your age to even think about turning on a computer given all the other
options you have including breathing in your beautiful surroundings but it is
going to take some action by each one of us even if it means simply getting a
son or a grandson to press the “send” button on an email saying, “Enough
is Enough.”
My hope is that we will soon meet although
I cannot promise when I will next be out in
All the best to you and Mark.
