Alan – Mr. John Pollard tells me that he has received the fax documents. Before I bother looking at them can u tell me that we actually have a deal? Yes or no would be suffice.

Alan, terrific.

 

There may be a problem in faxing me the documents as the only person I know with a fax nearby is Dr. John Pollard although I guess I could always have u fax the stuff to Finkelstein & Krinsk [tele. # 1-619-238-1333], have Jeffrey R. Krinsk do me the favor of reviewing everything be4 messengering it all over to me at the Starbucks café on the corner of 15th Street and Highway 101 in downtown, Del Mar which the President will hopefully visit when next in California, not everyone copied on this relatively brief missive certain to know that California is a State within the United States, considered by many as the 6th largest “fictitious” economy in the world, my main focus right now other than grabbing hold of email addresses is getting out a “State of the world” missive to Dr. Jonathan Beare who is still in my opinion the richest “cash rich” person on the planet, be sure to let me now if u notice anything falling out of the sky, u doing ok?

 

Last evening after making it up to our rock cabin at an average speed that had the temperature gauge on my Ducati ST4S hovering mostly at 172 degrees “FAIR height” [sic] every so often moving up to 174 degrees as I reached the 4,000 ft elevation breaking only once when the owner of a brand new porche in getting the fright of his life seeing me come out of nowhere decided to pull over and collect himself, no speeding ticket, and to top it all off when later on a bicycle ride I fell bruising my knee, blood pouring out of my left hand but fortunately I had my dog with me preventing the blood from spilling on to the ground saving a handful of mosquitoes from certain death, so incredibly considerate is Pypeetoe.

 

My Client Partner-Wife Marie Dion when hearing that I had done a deal with u and your partners, in turn u folks doing a “back to back” deal with buyers of each of the 6 units-condos, why else would u want 6 separate escrows to close at the same time, questioned how much pot I had inhaled in the motorcycle ride, agree?

 

U may or may not know, this is the high season for DelMartians to reap the rewards of their incredible cash crop just ask Mr. King Golden Jr. Esq. who along with a statistically valid sampling of the world’s literate population r once again blind copied, my hell bent on seeing our great, great, great, great President George W. Bush winning by a landslide, my reaching out to all the potheads in the world who if they were not on drugs, focused instead on the fundamentals of the world economy would be doing exactly what at this time other than chopping off heads, agree?

 

My facts about pot cultivation may not be absolutely correct and if not please let me know and I will correct the record.

 

Please understand my incredibly bright and soon to be immortalized Client-Partner-Wife Marie Dion in treating me with kid gloves so as to soften her incredible head blows that had me all but collapsing in to a heap of tears spelling out without once raising her delightful voice that despite my aversion to profiting from speculative real estate she could have arranged with my cardiologist cousin Barry Molk to perform a frontal lobotomy and if he botched the job who would be any the wiser given even the insurance adjuster reviewing the medical insurance claim would be able to get his-her arms around how incredibly dumb I had to have been not to be able to compute, a sweet wonderful lady here at Starbucks just picking up my trash, without doing much talking that with the rents at 1431 Stanford Street even as low as they r, one could cut a deal with each and every one of my tenants to purchase their own unit getting all the tax breaks of the rich and assuming they have the 6 worst credit records in the world any dumb shit I went to high school with at Carmel College, Durban, South Africa would see with mortgage interest rates at around 5%, your investors providing surety, even without any of them putting a penny down payment one could get financing of $2 million, agree?

 

And remember, my just panning to see if this one policeman sitting a few tables away is tuned in to our networks, what I just described is a worse case scenario, more likely producing a proforma valuation of $2.5 million without having to commit fraud, giving u and your partners upon the close of escrow with me a tidy profit considering u r only paying me $1, 725,000, net, agree?

 

Now I could spell this all out a whole lot more clearly going in to “sum” [sic] detail of how easy it would be for your group to pocket for all your effort no less than a million Euros tax free using an offshore reinsurance group with excellent banking relationships such as I have had in Zurich, Switzerland since the age of 10, but I will only do so if just one of the 10,000 odd blind copied on this missive and/or the folks reading this stuff over The Internet suggest I do so.

 

Not to suggest that u folks were looking to have me eating the pitiful fees which would be due to the City of Santa Monica should I sell off each unit individually.

 

Again, “as is” I thought was patently clear then again we had that Yale-Oxford President who thought he could jostle with the words “is” and “is”, agree?

 

Don’t u just love email.

 

Nor to suggest that the delay yesterday in u folks getting your acts together nor the “break” that occurred in our “back and forth” which I have now added in green below was even discussed with my again rather bright CPW Marie Dion who was thinking I should just donate the property to a charity set up to take care of our Pypeetoe in the event your partners are connected to the mob, worse yet one of named ever dwindling number of adversaries, again relatively speaking.

 

Let me know what u think, most importantly how many books of Manager Minute One I can count on u as well as your partners purchasing, so important we pay attention in this “dog eat god” [sic] world not only what folks say but what they fail to say, agree?

 

Yours truly,

 

Gary S. Gevisser

Ps – Don’t bother replying unless u concur with the above although I cannot expect u to commit to any purchase of MM1 until I at least send u a draft?

I cannot make it up to LA tomorrow but here is a fax number for me down here which I will only be able to get to tomorrow morning, 1-309-418-4561.

 

My plan is to be up in LA this Friday but I cannot say for certain. Next Tuesday barring an “Act of Dog” [sic] or man-woman behaving poorly and/or I misbehave while driving the Ducati STS4 we can meet 4 sure.

 

Congratulations on a great purchase, certainly in today’s market.

 

Gary

 

Ps – if anything happens to me rest assured Devin Standard, my dad and especially Marie will be a piece of cake compared to dealing with me.

 

Ps I – The $64,000 question, how many books of Manager Minute One can I count on you and your partners purchasing?

I just heard from the buyer and it is a " go". I am in the process of writing up the purchase agreements(6) for each seperate condo.He will be in my office tomorrow morning for signatures and deposit checks. Then we will need signatures from you. I can fax them to you or meet with you, whatever is easier for you.  I can even bring them to escrow and you can sign them there. You can start to get all leases or rental agreement together and also update the rents with the city, and all other paperwork regarding the condo conversion.

I will contact you tomorrow with all purchase agreements and deposits.

 

Thanks,

Alan

Alan – I have now left 2 messages for Ms. Gulihur.

 

If there is a problem, say so but lets not waste a moment longer.

 

I have backup deals at least as good as your “done” deal if not “sweeter” - remember vengeance is sweet to the heart of an Indian, my French Canadian 1/32nd Huron Indian Client-Partner-Wife Marie Dion possibly replacing me as her “French Maid” once she finds out I parted with this “one of a kind” property for simply “song and dance” while ensuring she becomes the richest widow on the planet.

 

May I suggest if u r still onboard that we go with Investors Title Company who handled my TORCA conversion.

 

In fact I now insist that we go with Investors Title Company unless u can convince that Paula Fogel is as tardy as Ms. Gulihur, I would hate to have my retired fighter-bomber-pilot with all that I have tasked him with in recent times have to do a “fly by”, u surely recall the incredible conveyor belt system my extraordinary mother consigliore to the richest most powerful people in the world thought he rigged up just to impress all his girlfriends that he could single-handedly lift 500 and 1,000 pound bombs out of his cockpit while strafing the crap out of the likes of the South African Sir Ernest Oppenheimer riding in motorcades escorted by motorcyclists in cahoots with the American Charles Englehard so smart to choose my amazing father’s first cousin, David Gevisser, as his “male heir”, and I assume u have read the book The Diamond Invention, “cover to cover” on The Internet.

 

Good day,

I will try and be up in LA tomorrow. I assume you would want me to take care of updating the rent roll with the City of Santa Monica.

 

Please confirm.

Re: 1431 Stanford;

Net price to you after commission will be $1,725,000.

My buyer will go forward with the purchase, 15 day close of escrow, $100,000 deposit in escrow. What he would like is 6 seperate escrows all to close at the same time. Also the white slips have to be in order! Property sold "as is".

We can open escrow today!

Alan – I am sticking to my guns of “over $1.7 million...” before I will lift another finger other than to give u the rent roll as of Sept 1.

 

Unit #1 – 2 bedroom 2 Bath - $1300

Unit #2 – 2 bedroom 2 Bath - $1093

Unit #3 – 2 bedroom 2 Bath - $1280

Unit #4 -  2 bedroom 2 Bath - $1650

Unit #5 – 1 bedroom 1 Bath-  $1200

Unit #6 – 1 bedroom  1Bath- $1300

 

Bear in mind even if u can find any idiot amongst my “contrarian supporters” thinking me mad in not understanding your lack of clarity now has me pulling the 12 hour deadline, i.e. the building is in play for the first highest offer of over $1.7 million to me “net” by 12:33 PM PT today.

 

U should not forget that just because I am selling the building for “a song” based on today’s market does mean I am a desperate seller having to constantly “weigh” my options between devoting time to this type of “back and forth” versus spending time collecting on monies due to me from folks like the Wetherly Capital Group who sent me a settlement agreement with yellow signature stickys neatly laid out back on April 4th 2002 some 100 odd days after I knew for an absolute certainty that Vivendi, the French multi-national water conglomerate, very much a part of the American landscape, were in desperate trouble, i.e. desperate people act desperately to mention little of a rather “skilled and experienced” litigator agreeing with me at the time that I would be foolish to accept less than $63 million for my unpaid services that contained a “tail”, just yesterday coming across a 1099 income tax form from the Wetherly Capital Group, such “black and white” declarations in stark contrast to the cover letter accompanying the FEDEX package I received Mr. William H. Jackson Esq., the Wetherly Capital Group’s attorney on April 4th 2002 containing a whole bunch of settlement agreements I never asked for in the first place.

 

Get with the program and also remember even tho we r talking about a 15 day escrow I expect a healthy non-refundable deposit.

The offer was $1,750,000 less 5% commission to me. But he might pay $1,775,000 with $75,000 to me. $1,700,000 to you!

Please send me a rent roll for all units as of Sept.1st.

Alan – my wireless Internet connection went down right after I got this email from you.

 

If I understand correctly, I realize that I must look after my own best interest having failed to take the advice of Mr. Derrick Beare to let my Client-Partner-Wife handle everything, her plate rather full, is that after u receive your commission I end up with a net of $1,750,000 then go ahead and put it in writing, and to heck with legal documents, email is just fine with me, just make sure u get an escrow company that can provide me with a Certificate of Insurance demonstrating a Godzilla dollars in liability insurance with a domestic carrier back up with one of my Bahamas based re-insurance companies,,, let me know if there is anything u r unsure about and be smart enuf not to question me further about any interests I have in insurance companies unless u commit to posting up on at least 5 Internet message boards a day questioning Alan “Greenspam” [sic] CHM of the Federal Reserve why he does not include Certificates of Insurance in either M1, M2 or M3 when computing the all important Money Supply numbers, agree?

 

Given the fact that I have been delayed in getting back to you I will give you until 12 hours to nail this one down.

 

U should be aware just from the missives I have copied u on that I am not someone to screw around with,,, I just killed a mosquito.

 

I stick religiously to going “back and forth” and I assume u did your stent, no strike that, your stint at the wailing wall,,, can u imagine if we were to lay prostrate how enticing that might be “4 sum 50% odd of us” [sic] Gevisser boys, enuf of holy warriors, not to suggest that we encourage the practice of “favors” during Plato’s times but if that is the only way to protect the women then why not?

 

Have u ever wondered what it must be like sitting atop the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem looking left and right, us Jewish folk going “back and forth”, the Muslims going around in circles pacing the Dome of the Rock wondering if the good Almighty SMART G-D was trying to tell us something other than “money doesn’t grow on trees”, that patterns matter, food for thought?

 

Do me a favor and be the heavy guy should u wish to raise the current rent roll which is just shy of $94,000, at least one of the tenants due for an increase but then again this could interfere with your client’s plan to sell the units.

 

I have received an offer that would value the property today at $2 million, getting $1 million odd now with a 49% carried interest, another group letting me know that without bribing either a bank loan officer or appraiser not even having to bother with asking for a kickback at the close of escrow from the group they plan to flip the property to in a “back to back” deal with me they would be able to get a value of some $2.5 million based simply on providing their bank with a bunch of bullshit proformas, only in America, agree?

 

Ordinarily I wouldn’t be interested in such a deal since my “good name” could be “leveraged” to “hell and high water” costing me “a bucket” by the time I had to bail out other poor, poor, Garys playing “victim” but given the great likelihood be4 a deal would be put to bed they will all be well versed with what it means to be in bed with The Rattlesnake, so I might go along for the ride, altho I have this thing about being in the backseat, u haven’t forgotten how important it is when stepping foot, hi Poli, in to a New York Cab to let the driver know not only do u have a weak stomach but that u have access to truck loads of Preparation H in capsule form that is aging ,,, well u get the picture.

 

In today’s market, and I mean literally right this very moment as the clock strikes midnight here on the west coast of the United States as I type away at blinding speed working at the same time on a missive to my terrific “Hot Water” tenant in unit#4, u and your partners would be getting an excellent deal, everything will depend on how smart u r while doing the “right thing” for the “general good”, timing of the essence.

 

If I am mistaken and u r expecting me to pay any of your commission please do not bother replying unless to say there is a zero missing in the $1,750,000, I simply don’t have the patience for any lack of clarity at this ungodly hour.

 

Hopefully tho, when my book, Manager Minute One comes out u will at least buy a handful and I promise if around to sign however many copies u buy at full retail, my learning a while back no one appreciates a helping hand unless they have been raised ever so carefully not to lazy, never letting their formal education interfere with their learning.

 

Later,

 

Gary

Al – I have a deal on the table for $1.6 million “as is”. At that number it doesn’t make sense given the casflow I am getting and the taxes I would have to pay to accept such a low ball offer. I am putting the word out that If someone comes in at anything over $1.7 million in the next 7 days and able to close escrow in 15 days or less I will do the deal.
