Subject:  Question: If a man speaks in a forest and there is only a woman around, is he still wrong?

 

Diana – My decision to respond at this time to your email of May 14th is largely the result of coming across 2 rather interesting articles on the front page of the Business Day section in last Thursday’s New York X [Times], Big Board Chief Will Get A $140 Million Package and Revlon Running Near Empty subtitle, Some Analysts Expect Bailout From Perelman.

 

This being Labor Day take your time in reading this email which is just part 1 of an 8 part series of emails I will be sending u et al in the course of the next several days totaling at this time sum 26,000 odd words, all geared toward getting u focused on staying on track and neither of us ending up as racks of lamb, i.e. I will save u years of backbreaking investigative work that even if u r like my Ducati ST4S, in peak racing condition, you could still come up empty.

 

This assignment should you decide to take it could, in my opinion, make or break you, more to the point, I believe you will have no choice butt to take these communications to the NYX’s editor and let him throw his best hook, reminding the man, not only how far back u and I go but more importantly how instrumental I was in getting a multi-million dollar landmark class action lawsuit overturned that was all set to have quite a cascading effect, the 2,000 pending lawsuits, the tip of the iceberg; should he be so caught up in his own self-importance let him know that I won’t be shy in contacting the WSJ.

 

Make no mistake, this is showtime as in “show & tell”, the road-show is now picking up steam and I am on a roll.

 

Have whatshisname bare in mind that not only am I sitting on “smoking gun evidence” of political corruption at the highest levels of the Democratic Party that will make Watergate look like a day in a water park but I happen to have sum very clear cut solutions at solving more than a handful of the biggest hurdles facing not just the United States of America butt the rest of the world who think, thanks to the likes of the New York X and CNN that we r all a bunch of nincompoops, Campbell Soup, the “currant wife” [sic] of Mr. Jeffrey R. Krinsk just yesterday seeming to blame even the floundering presidential campaign of Senator John Kerry on President George W. Bush, never to forget that if u r not part of the solution than u r part of the problem, doubtful that u r about to give birth but just in case let me know as u trail towards the head if there is anything I mention that makes u want to vomit.

 

Make no mistake though the “pigs at the trough” are in 4 a number of, lets simply call it choices, “Slim down real quick or face an uphill battle more than a handful of us have already taken the high ground” and naturally I don’t include the boys u know rather well at eRaider.com who are no doubt hoping that one of these days I misjudge a corner when weaving through the turns along Sunrise Highway where I am probably better known these days than anywhere else in the world, at least amongst the California Highway Patrol Officers who often give me the “thumbs up” and of course I have handed out more than a handful of business cards as well as taking probably close to 100 names of people interested in purchasing Manager Minute One once it hits the bookshelves.

 

So do u think Melvyn Weiss had anything to do with these too postings on the eRaider.com Shareholder Rights message board?

 

With that all that said I would like u to keep in the back of your head the following “facts of life” and please understand that in addition to simultaneously working on 7 other emails I am also keeping our too dogs entertained:

 

At this time, 6:55PM PST, an employee in California could conceivably collect over $400 per week in “mandated” workers compensation benefits were he-she to simply, “slip & fall” which over the course of the next 3 years will double; i.e. more than enuf pocket change to afford betting on a not-so-sure thing such as the ponies over at the Del Mar horserace track;

 

2nd, it currently costs companies like IBM, i.e. those that haven’t yet short-circuited and being, “humanely etherized” [sic], 5X more 4 an American employee than someone as far away as India and I think even rednecks in places like Del Mar can get over their turban headgear remembering these folks were civilized while our forefathers, the Europeans, ran around in rags, my grandfather Israel “Issy” Gevisser arriving in South Africa with little more than the shirt on his back, my step-father getting in2 the “rag trade” making out like a “bandid” [sic];

 

3rd, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to compute why the fastest growing divisions of healthy insurance companies specialize here in the United States in what is termed, “foreign owned companies” growing as best I can tell at compounding rates over the past 3 years well in excess of 40%;

 

4th, u would have to be flying drunk not to c particularly right now the European employers who have bet their “ranches” on the Euro showing more concern 4 the barflies say in places like Germany serving German beer or French chambermaids whether or not they walk around fully clothed or naked then a bunch of Mexican laborers;

 

5th, the so-called “illegal immigration crisis” is not simply a misnomer it is the only “action” that keeps the trains sumwhat running on time a whole lot more important than Indian Gaming unless of course u r short of funds, politics a business ready 4 a workout;

 

6th, it is a good thing to look the other way, when a train passes by but at least pay sum attention to the Newtonian principle that 4 every action there is an equal and opposite reaction which when combined with the Doppler Effect has someone like me listening very carefully paying that much more attention to things like General Relativity to mention little of wouldn’t it be sumthing if in fact I am one day proved correct that Einstein’s ingenious equation, e=mc squared is the “Holy Grail” as in a Unified Theory 4 the Inner Workings of the Universe;

 

7th, with all the good paying jobs leaving the 6th largest economy in the world and most of your generation still buying in2, “As goes California so goes the rest of the world” who is going to be able to afford paying the outrageous prices of California real estate where the return on investment for the average “Joe Blow” just wanting to get his-her foot “in the door” is currently less than the savings rate of hard working Americans who take on average no more than 2 weeks vacation per year and who are just 4 paychecks away from being out on the street;

 

8th, those who have the most to gain as well as the most to lose are those who have seen to it that the Price/Earnings ratio of publicly traded companies remains at an all-time high not when compared to the history of say the NYSE but more importantly to what small businesses are selling 4, where there are far more controls on those handling the cash registers never having to bother with middlemen such as Richard A. Grasso, Chairman of the New York Stock Exchange;

 

9th, change builds character.

 

I should though make it clear that it was a male, albeit an attorney in Judge Kamins criminal court room in Santa Monica sum too weeks ago today who asked the “If” question and “without blinking an eyelid” the female city attorney whose back was facing me answered, “Yes!” not bothering to lift her head lest the wolf imprint on the back of her jacket were to possibly droop a little becoming a trifle less intimidating; Betty, however, giving me the broadest smile possible when the charge she brought against me was eventually dismissed, the 5th time in the space of less than a year I have appeared in a criminal court setting with “pretty much” the same result, making the most of every opportunity using the gravitational pull that seems to place a drag on more than a handful of folks along with levity to make “hey while the sun shines” [sic] never though taking myself all that seriously unless of course I c a kid or momworker63 type in distress, the most satisfaction occurring when a speeding ticket violation was dismissed, the judge allowing me to present my case in writing “via the mail.”

 

And although the 3 other X I appeared in a criminal proceeding on the same “false & misleading” charges that carried “immeasurable” downside had I been found guilty, the thought of Larry “Dunce” King “making hay” of “dirty laundry” has kept me sumwhat “tight lipped” but as the world goes “topsy turvy” I feel the urge to demonstrate not only that those who “lie, steal and cheat” r tu be confronted each and every step of the way, having everyone including strangers squint at them during the day as one does when painting a masterpiece, getting the values down, u know, the various shades of gray, while planting enough seeds in their heads while the sun shines so much so that at nightfall they begin climbing walls, Jacobs Ladder a pretty sick movie, wouldn’t u agree?

 

We must begin with those close to us, family, then neighbors, in a universal effort to prevent the next generation of kids telling their kids, “U will have your chance to blow it”, but perhaps more importantly giving folks the tools that will show them without anyone breathing down their neck how tu become masters of their destiny from minute one, my book Manager Minute One, just a breath away from not only being on book shelves but a best seller to boot.

 

I have been in sumwhat of a “holding pattern” these past several months, every so often “dipping down” getting real low on occasion, just testing the waters; patterns, like inappropriate patting of children tend to stick with me perhaps more so than your average “Joe Blow” nothing quite so deadly as folks like Dr. JBS et al who blow a lot of smoke, such distracting techniques belonging in the Dark Ages quite different to the Digital Age where transparency makes wrongdoers stick out like sore thumbs, my expertise in matching up “poor behavior” when numbers are involved perhaps one day, legendary, nothing tu be gained though by considering oneself a “legend in one’s own mind” unless of course one can get everyone to be of one mind?

 

Now is as good a time as any to drop the “agree” but if in doubt just throw it in and if it makes sense, makes u feel “good,” then why not simply take ownership of it but as mentioned in the movie True Colors which I saw twice this past weekend that begins in 1983 with college students attending the University of Virginia Law School, one must pay a price for ownership and who can forget Warren “BO” Buffets one-time classic comment, “You pay a very high price for cheery consensus” along with Hitler’s all-time best, “The more u screw with someone’s head the more likely they will in time becum unglued” [sic], Buffet’s all-time classic that caught the masses as well as most if not all of so-called intelligentsia flat-footed, “Within the next 10 minutes and the next 50 years there is the certainty of either a biological or nuclear attack on one the United States major cities” almost as clairvoyant as Adolf Hilter’s, “The great masses of people will more easily fall victim to a big lie than a small lie” nothing quite like being alerted, good news soon in the air?

 

Mr. Buffet and I do not exactly c “eye to eye” but in time I am all butt certain the biggest crook in the world along with just a handful of other folks who play it “fast & loose” will get “with the program” that we are all pretty much born right, i.e. probably no more than 12 IQ points that separate at birth the smartest of us from the dimmest, but those who have their sequencing interfered with never quite make the most of their G-D given DNA?

 

Kids first make the change to “Diks” when they witness those tasked with “guiding them” being nothing more than hypocrites and there is nothing that turns youngsters off than a “Godly” Doctor supposedly schooled in stuff like the Hippocratic Oath or anyone to big 4 their boots constantly yelling, “Let me show u how” the first stage in the road to a lifetime of co-dependency that extends beyond the grave particularly since the likelihood of an over controlling fart-face living to a “ripe old age” are “slim & none” especially if they have a pot belly.

 

And what do u make of bald people, now that my hair has stopped falling out, my wife though ready to scalp me if I don’t start behaving myself?

 

My first thoughts as I glanced thru the first article in the Business Day section was whether Carl McCall, the former comptroller for New York State who is vice chairman of Healthpoint Partners was on drugs when he decided to accept this appointment of investigating this “white collar crime” at the highest levels of the NYSE altho we all know the likelihood of any law being broken by the guys who run the biggest crooked business ever invented by man, are, once again, “slim & none.”

 

Perhaps though Mr. McCall is so enamored with his reflection when shaving in the mirror each morning, the fog having possibly penetrated his brain and therefore doesn’t have the foggiest notion of who is paying for the Big Board Chief’s outrageous $140 million package bearing in mind those such as James E. Cayne of Bear, Sterns; Henry M. Paulson Jr. of Goldman, Sachs; and David H, Komansky, formerly of Merrill Lynch may have been part of the “wholesale shake-up of its [New York Stock Exchange-NYSE] compensation committee butt who very likely remain on the board of directors of the NYSE?

 

And why not have Ronald “The Finagle King” Perelman on the board of the NYSE, not only did he graduate from the “Warton School of Business” [sic] but as far as I know he has yet to pay fines anywhere close to those organizations named above?

 

Not tu forget that it was only just very recently that Martha “Pitch fork” Stewart was told by the NYSE board they no longer needed her licking their butts and what do u make of the disconnects in Christopher Byron’s book, Martha Inc. tu mention little of Christopher failing to get back to me during a most critical period when I was having sum difficulty getting the likes of “Milberg Weiss Bershad Hynes and Leroach” [sic] to at least pick up the shofar, i.e. ram’s horn, not being afraid of going to war with a “guniff” i.e. crook who just pretended to be Jewish or could it just have been the fact that Milberg Weiss along with Ronald “O. Ring” Perelman and the likes of Ron “Kick box artist” Burkle happen to be big time contributors to the Democratic Party opposed to tort reform?

 

And of course being sued is all built in to the “cost of goods sold” to folks like Perelman and Burkle especially when one is allowed to include “Directors & Officers” insurance as an “above the line” expense as opposed to it being “extraordinary” one of Vicky “Sticky” Schiff’s favorite words, never to forget how very confusing things become when confronted with one’s past, what goes around comes around, there being only so many ways to stretch things before it rebounds, nothing quite like a boomerang to assist in coming to terms with the fact that world is endless, giving some of these pathetic characters pause for concern, but u shouldn’t hold your breath, butt if u feel the need to fart or let out a laugh be my guest, just open up the windows, u know of course that debits are to the left, credits out the window.

 

Windows is not something Warren “BO” Buffet ever embraced but coming from the “old school of thought” he very likely decided to make friends with Bill Gates based on the axiom, “Keep your friends close and your enemies even closer” the coming of the Digital Age Mr. Buffet’s undoing as u will c in Part 8 of this discourse.

 

By now u should be sumwhat aware of how much I detest those who derive great satisfaction in exceeding the limits of their small authority, i.e. evil doesn’t come in the form of a pitched fork or pointed tail, remembering ever so well my first “brush up” with Mr. McCall, my question quite simple, “What’s up, do u need a Doc?” [sic], nothing compared to the knuckleball questions I will be suggesting u plant sooner rather than later before Ms. Schiff, the co-managing director of Wetherly Capital Group [WCG] a financial services-lobbyist organization that masterminded and executed the “hijacking” of California’s Gubernatorial elections held last November 8th culminating in Gray Davis being elected governor for a second term of the 6th largest economy in the world.

 

Mr. McCall was speaking at a gathering of “well-wishers” in San Francisco a couple of years back, extraordinarily proud of his achievements as comptroller for New York State not quite expecting a “white serfer boy” [sic] to place a dampener in this “high society” setting resulting in me being on the receiving end of “If looks could kill” stare from both Mr. McCall as well as San Francisco mayor, Willie Brown, who was standing no more than a meter to my right with Vicky “Sticky” Schiff who had invited me along just tu my left ducking behind a pillar, Ms. Schiff not always certain of my next move, knowing though the benefits of sticking close to me 4 quite sum “extraordinary” amount of time that allowed her to get her teeth whitened and then sum especially when given my preference 4 going “In N Out” rather “quickly”, unless making love, never though falling asleep, at the wheel, twisting my way out, of tight spots.

 

And of course u wouldn’t be at all surprised that Dick Ziman who happens to be the chairman and CEO of Arden Realty perhaps the biggest domestic “REAT” [sic] on the NYSE is also the chairman of WCG and of course it pays to have your 2 top lieutenants in the form of Victor Coleman and Andrew Sobel alongside but then why not offer a seat on WCG’s board to the big time thief, Ron “Mongrel” Burkle of Yucaipa now allied with non other than the former president of the United States of America, William “Wallpaper” Clinton and how can we not forget William “cum from behind” Simon, the son of the former Secretary of the Treasury during the Reagan Administration, winner of California’s Gubernatorial Republican primaries who months prior went “cap in hand” to of all folks, the WCG; Bill Simon also conspicuously absent on all occasions when I met with the “movers & shakers” of WCG in of all places the World Savings Center located at the corner of San Vicente and Wilshire Boulevard in west Los Angeles at time when former mayor of Los Angeles Dick Riorden was still the Republican frontrunner, which may bring u to the question,

 

Gary, what the hell are u talking about?” or as Laurie Black once asked, “Gary, where are u going with this?” to mention little of why Vicky “Sticky” Schiff should feel the need to help Mr. McCall find a “madam” [sic] given his control at the time of sum $125 billion of “hard assets”, although I seem to recall Vicky spelling it out “loud & clear” that she was “killing two birds with one stone” using her “extraordinary talents” to help find Mr. McCall a “secretary without a big butt” that would at the same time keep the other co-managing director of the WCG, Dan Weinstein “off her tail.”

 

Diana, be advised that blind copied on this email are 2 members of the FBI who along with a number of other folks very carefully selected out of my email list constitute a representative sample of the world’s population.

 

Should u 4 whatever reason like me to expedite matters, i.e. get a “first look” at the remaining parts I will do my best to accommodate u but please understand I have a number of things on my plate including communicating with a gentleman by the name of Jim Gibson who I have been led to believe is a Republican running for the “California State Assemblie” [sic], so it may take me a while to respond.

 

Now I would be most appreciative if u can put me in direct contact with Richard Riorden without going thru “self serving” intermediaries just as u so graciously assisted me a few years back in putting me in touch with Professor Grundfest of Stanford University, the one time chairman of the SEC whose “Shell game” quote in Peter Elkinds article, The King of Pain is Hurting, got my attention.

 

Note that I have already tried getting the Republican National Committee to get “off the dime” giving them a “heads up” in advance of the November 8th 2002 California Gubernatorial elections, their deafening silence quite understandable as one gets thru the ABCs of current politics, quite electrifying the 31 odd questions I will be suggesting u present to Ms. Vicky “Sticky” Schiff the last thing I would want is for anyone to show up dead, my belief though is that only God makes those decisions, innocent folks getting hurt though is another story altogether graphically depicted throughout the history books most of which have quite a slant to them, The Right Angle Triangle may yet help us get back in2 “tip top” shape.

 

Hang 10!

 

Gary S. Gevisser

 

Ps – I would think the first question u next put to me other than when I think President George W. Bush should suspend trading of all public companies is, “Hey Gary, how come once again u land yourself plum in the thick of things?” and u wouldn’t be at all surprised that my wife, Marie Dion Gevisser [MDG] with the help of me and our JoNathan chose not the plum colored leather sofa but the black.

 

My laptop computer continues to be out of commission and I am using MDG’s email account, the 4-22-03 representing the day we were married, that all combined including marriage certificate, reception, ceremony, photographer, ring, marriage license cost a whopping $313 which didn’t, however, include the “wear & tear” on the Mini Cooper S or the gas “to & from” Del Mar to the government offices in downtown San Diego nor for that matter did MDG feel it necessary that I buy her a ring simply transferring the silver ring I got “4 a song” a lifetime ago over at the silver market in London from her left hand to the right hand with of course the help of our almost 11-year-old JoNathan who by the way didn’t charge us a dime 4 any of his services including that of photographer to mention little of him smiling from “ear to ear” throughout the proceedings quite different I am sure than when his biological father Dr. JBS took him “in t-w-o” [sic] back on September 11th 2002 down to the San Diego Courthouses having JoNathan “grin and bear” as he began trekking down a “Peeriless” [sic] path.

 

How we come to “cross paths” with one another should become rather obvious in time assuming u r in tune and haven’t let other interfere to much with your sequencing,

 

The Meek

With Teeth

Inherit

Shall

The Earth

 

and it wouldn’t be right if I didn’t let u know that MDG split the entire cost of our nuptials with me altho I don’t recall ever asking her 4 her share of the $13 I was “out of pocket” when picking up the marriage certificate after meeting on July 2nd with Mr. Krinsk for our customary Wednesday “Chicken pot pie” over at Rainwaters, and u shouldn’t be at all surprised that Laurie Black who I will get to in “Jew course” [sic] has yet tu respond to my last knuckleball.

 

Suffice to say, Laurie Black is also a member of my Washington Bunch whose “lead singer” is King “Pothead” Golden Esq. who I will also cover in due course, his recent silence tho much like that of his “yesteryear” joined-at-the-hip buddy Roger “talk talk” Hedgecock the former one-time mayor of San Diego, severally indicted & convicted but later released on “technicalities”, quite deafening; silence at this time very much golden, nothing quite like having both leftists and right wingers in your band of merrymen and women unless of course u r playing a game of rugby which I will also get to at the appropriate time.

 

Remember, I am following up not just with u but a number of folks who altho polite as someone well schooled such as yourself, “Gary -- somehow I've wound up on the distribution list for these messages…” have an undertone as in Dr. JBS’ “RE: RE:” email that at one time would have had the hair on my back stand on end and then I did what anyone with access to a zillion Epiladys would do under the same circumstances which is to shave my back hairs while simultaneously doing my Palates, never am I one to shave the truth or let those no matter how close they may have at one time been tu me get away with “murder”, reputation everything, and nothing, depending on one’s perspective?

 

Not everyone, however, is appreciative of my efforts to lighten things up a little in the “aftermath of 611” [non-sic] sum 4+ years ago when momworker63 appeared from nowhere with a plea 4 help that sent chills from my TOES, along my right thigh, up the spine all the way to the base of my “SCAL” [sic], spineless folks to boot, or r u getting to the point of thinking, less said the better?
