Marius, Marie and I both felt your positive waves best reflected in the photo taken by the photographer who went light on the quality of his film. No doubt nothing could dampen our spirits this V Day after deciding to stop by your spot for a “last call” where Marie was undoubtedly the “show stopper” although her moves at Deco’s earlier in the evening got the uptight feeling even more depressed. No doubt this world needs more blues music with dancers who have all the right moves, two left-footed types like me need much help in making the right moves. I plan to enquire into dancing lessons this week.

 

I’m copying Devin Standard and perhaps he can explain to you more about what is dampening his efforts to break the world speed water record besides for the focus shifting to get folks at NASA to take off their sunglasses thinking that the son only shines on them and make the most of what little time is left for the space shuttle program and conduct the direct experiment which would surely prove that the speed of light increases through a vacuum much like it does when penetrating the minds of men who make mountains out of molehills that collapse with the smallest of earthquakes, those at the top having the furthest to fall.

 

Problems seem to begin when one relies on one’s government to throw money at projects taking the inventiveness out of inventors much the same way leaving a large inheritance dampens the enthusiasm of the next generation. The more I look at uptight engineering types like those folks who spent millions to get the ink in a pen to defy gravity while working in outer space, turning a blind eye to their Russian counterparts who had to make do with pencils as their government poured out the vodka dummying the masses, money without a “Gold Standard” simply a means to keep the downtrodden on the wrong sides of the track, the more convinced I am that in the process of the intellectual elite letting their formal education interfere with their learning they essentially opened up the aperture exposing their darkened minds to the bright lights, turning brains cells into poop that with gravity and the spine as a ladder ends up down the drain with “joy ride” specialists getting it in the shorts; mice-lice pretty much the same in terms of how they probably poop, wouldn’t you agree? Chunky cheese will do it, cellulite to boot[1].

 

By the way is it true that a drain turns differently south of the equator than it does north to mention little of what the brain drain has caused to places like South Africa?

 

I will also let Devin know that you have an interest in water craft to mention little of your “Stellenbosch” engineering credentials and with a name like Mari-us that couldn’t dampen Marie’s face that with each passing day seems to smile more and more, fakes to boot; soon a “wake up” call for everyone.

Hi Gary

 

Saturday night with you and Marie was short, but invigorating.  Never know what can happen when someone needs room next to you for leftovers.

 

I checked out QuasArk with interest.  It looks promising, but did they hit some waves the system couldn't dampen?  Shortage of money and/or technical problems perhaps?

 

Hope we shall communicate.
