Guys - as u know I replied earlier today [11:51 AM PT] to Leon Cohen of Codiam Inc. who assures me that not only will he help his father Stephen get his computer in Florida running but more importantly Leon has now taken the initiative to make plans for us all to break bread in New York City once I hear back from the Feds.
3
hrs ago, around 10:30 AM PT I finished one terrific 30 odd minute phone
conversation with
Still
an incredible listener if one can “cut to the chase”,
again not for a minute did this rather special man who allowed his name to be
trashed so to protect the LWWE skins of his own flesh and blood and
their friends who had not acted in his and his twin brothers’ best
interest, so caught up in believing that they could trade their way out of
their abyss, failing in every single discipline imaginable other than in
spreading their legs, most noteworthy their failure to record the incredible
amount of Epilady womens’ shavers that were flooding up warehouses all
across the United States while remembering to include them when counting
inventory, such a “slight of hand” missed by the outside
accountants as well as the lawyer-liars doing wonders to the bottom line
numbers which is why when I first told Solly back in the fall of 1989 after I
had "christ-crossed"
[sic] thru Europe on a whirlwind tour that took me to 15 odd countries in 10
days doing “due diligence” on every conceivable project under the
sun that his international empire had to be “underwater”
eventho I had never even looked at the set of books of their Golden Goose, the m
Not
once did Solly question my logic as to why I feel he should devote time and
energy toward
So nice to see Solly remembering details of our business dealings going back so long, simply blowing me away, now well aware of “sum” [sic] of my next moves including how much I would prefer if members of my family were to put the best interests of the peoples’ of the world ahead of their self-centeredness.
Please forward this to everyone u know.
Remember not everyone has a computer in the western world but nearly every one of us LWWE Boys and Girls has a fax, not to also forget that white is symbolic for western, it's not the colour but a state of mind.
May
I suggest that when dealing with immediate family members u begin by first
letting them know that
Nothing like getting a job in the real world learning from reading and watching others screw up, to constantly take deep breaths, rise above their bullshit, such an inner piece so well reflected in Tefo’s comment about respecting “sum” [sic] of his Afrikaner colleagues “for their honesty unlike some sly english men.”
Please remember to ask each person to forward this piece (I could make it more readable in the form of a hyperlink which would add to the number of hits our websites r getting – so important our first website www.footsak.com) to everyone on their email list separating them into 3 groups, the Western Way of Life, the Eastern Way of Life and the African Way of Life, feeding back to me all the stats.
Again if u r not outraged every day then u r not paying attention.
Over my dead body will Eliot
Spitzer, Attorney General of New York settle his refreshing complaint without
first asking
“are all shaking [your] heads in total dismay at the incredulous meandering tirades you put forth day after day - when did you become the guru of truth - living in your microcosm in SD ??.... “
Wouldn’t u agree that I and/or my heirs r in quite a stellar position to assist Attorney General Spitzer ask extraordinarily simple but probing questions given how much information Mr. Ron Bellows - Senior Risk Management Specialist of the $280 billion criminal megalopoly of AIG-Marsh & McLennan-ACE Ltd has fed me since he was tasked by his other bosses “sum” [sic] to “kick our tires”?
Not to forget why RBS would refer on at least 2 occasions to me as “boss” to mention little of how many times he would shake his head when we have visited over the past 8 odd years asking less each time how amazed he is at my “incite” [sic] able back in December 1996, “sum” [sic] 7 years after leaving Insurance Marketing Services Inc. to not only get thru the very first time I called the very top dog of the $280 billion criminal megalopoly but how quickly Maurice “Hank” Greenberg and the President of AIG, Thomas Tizzio, acted so incredibly fast in dispatching the megalopoly’s head of Mergers & Acquisitions to have one of his lead lapdogs, RBS, put on his very best suite and tie bought out of a paycheck not quite big enough to give RBS and his family sufficient financial independence and come party with us in Las Vegas, agree?
So important in this “Dog eat God Aspartame” [sic] world to help those at the top of the pyramid, the puppeteers of the RBS’ of the world to get the picture of what’s in store for them if they don’t get with the program awfully quick, a picture sells, no strike that, tells a thousand words, agree?
Incredibly hard for me thinking about the masses of people around the world disaffected by RBS’ insensitivity and self-centeredness to give him an easy escape route, this so incredibly poorly bred individual while earning enuf to once in a while also afford a haircut incapable, however, to “separate”, using his own words, again and again, from the “fony crap”, enuf to make u vomit?
Never to forget that according to RBS after the head of M & A was fired, led away in handcuffs, he was the only member of the team left standing, RBS’ decision to send me AIG’s internal memos detailing the $280 billion megalopoly’s decision not to insure SD Searle the manufacturer of Aspartame simply guilt while lapping up the benefits of being stepped on, agree?
When u let people treat u like an ant u become an ant, agree?
I am thinking of “gifting” Tefo and his partner who I understand has now jumped in to the dialogue going on with the Bellows family “sum” [sic] Preferred non-voting stock in my intellectual property, what do u think?
In other words could u both work with a 25 year old Black South African independent thinker?
Love,
Gary

Well, as you already know I was born on 13 November 1979 in BLOEMFONTEIN (Mangaung). Grew up there till i was three years old when my dad got a job in Soshanguve (North of Pretoria) at a teacher's college in the township. My mom was a social worker then, helping with delinquent kids and dysfunctional families (Black families). My younger sister, who is currently finishing her first year at Rhodes University, was born in 1985 in Pretoria.
I attended two township primary schools in Soshanguve until in 1992 when I went to Christian Brothers College Mount Edmund (pretoria) for high school. As a kid in primary school all I did mainly was just go to school and play soccer afterwards. Can't remember which year then my dad got a new job at the (bantu) department of education as a subject adviser travelling around the country to schools that had Sesotho (language) as a subject. Those were not so good days because I was still young and most of the time my dad would be away and would be left behind with only my moms and my baby sister. During high school then my dad got a job at the Department of Arts & culture and my mom switched careers to become a lecturer, first at Technikonn Northern Gauteng and then at University of South Africa. In 1993, a year after my first year in high school, we moved to a white neighbourhood (Monument Park) because it was more convenient for all of us and the conditions were much better than the townships.
In high
school I was pretty lazy, doing just enough to pass having figured out even if
you get distinctions you still go to the same university (if your parents can
afford it) as the kid who didn't get cum laude. Three things I spent most of my
time on in high school, playing soccer, watching formula 1 and computers, i.e.
dismatling, assembling them and programming them....they just fascinated me, I
m
After high
school I wanted to do a BSc in Computer Science but all varsities were full
when I applied after coming back from Germany so I settled for Electrical
Engineering (Digital Systems) at Technikon Pretoria - a VERY Afrikaner tertiary
institution. First year was pretty frustrating studying something I didn't have
a passion for and since I was living on campus the whole INITIATION thing was a
drag, especially more so it was like a MILITARY CAMP, nevertheless I m
In beginning 1998, I saw an ad on campus saying that BMW (Bavarian Motoren Werken) SA were looking for trainees in their IT Department so I decided to apply and next thing you know July of 1998 I had dropped out of Tech and now working. I figured, I'm at tech and there are tousands of students around the country studying exactly what I'm studying and there are only so few jobs we will all be vying for when we graduate, and anyway I need the money. Not to say my parents were not too pleased with my decision to drop-out.
From mid 1998 till May 2002 I was at BMW SA where I left as a Systems Engineer and the only qualification i got was an IT technical certification which I only got because that was the only way the HR department was going to give me a substantial salary increase, perks and better position is if I had some sort of "paper" certification, so I decided to beat the system. But then again in 2001 November after having bought myself a quad bike (I bought this after the lovely increase) to go off-road biking with some Afrikaner colleagues (whom I respect for their honesty unlike some sly english men) I fractured my right tibia and lost my knee cap and had to have an op. Currently I can only bend my right leg 90degrees even after 3 months of physio. This experience gave me time to think again about the system and I figured that theres no ways I could go up the ladder in the organisation because my boss was young and he wasn't gonna die soon and I would still have to compete with 5 more team members for his position and any way I wanted to work for myself so I decided I needed more experience as a consultant (+ my girlfriend was now living and working in Johannesburg) so I decided to get a new job as a consultant with a Johannesburg company and subsequently moved to Johannesburg and moved out of home.
This proved to be quite a bad decision but nevertheless one that expedited my learning process. To summarise, due to the downturn in IT spending in RSA and the world over, I experienced two retrenchements in a space of less than a year after leaving BMW. This I interpreted as God's way of kicking me in the butt and telling me to start my own as I have always wanted. Teamed up with Benni (Maseko) - we knew each other from days at BMW, he was at IBM and I was his client - coincidentally (or rather synchronically if there is such a word) he was at the same Johannesburg IT company a month before I joined it and we both suffered the two retrenchements together.
You might
ask, how then do u acquire knowledge? Well, I figured that if I needed to know
something I could either ask or buy a book which I would still read critically
and make up my own mind on the subject.
I hope that covers some of my background, as you know I cannot cover 25 years of living in just one e-mail so I hope as we further interact we will get to know each other better.
Until we connect again....
Kgotso!

Gary,
I doubt any of those gentlemen would engage you in open debate for obvious reasons. It's a pity that most people have succumbed to greed not seeing that it's hurting them in return because after all we are all one, if you hurt another human you are only hurting yourself.
About english, you remind me of a statement my moms used to utter "English came with the ships, it's not our language!". Nevertheless, language is merely a code of expressing oneself. If we could all reach the levels of consciousness whereby we could understand each other without saying a word, that would be gr8 because language (all languages) is limited and most times cannot express how you feel no matter how articulate or eloquent you are.
till next time...
kgotso!
