Dear Lisa,
I
am in receipt of your email offering to purchase our uniquely
isolated property in Minehead, Somerset, England that while spelling out
very specifically all the items that could do with improvement you failed in my
humble but seasoned opinion to make sufficient notice of all the positives
including not only the fact that you dont have to take care of the adjorning
forest but in the event you were to let our anything but delapidated
one-of-a-kind home with an attached successful cafe be taken over by Mother
Nature building it again from the ground up employing the most skilled labor
familiar with both the Chinese work ethic and state-of-the-art building methods
then I would suggest you should be looking like I am at this property being
worth well in excess of my asking price which given your articulation has me
now very seriously considering raising my asking price to 300,000 English
pounds sterling but I will wait before taking such action to return to the
United States in just a few more days.
May
I suggest that before responding you take the time out to read the
"back and forth" between myself and an employer of the tour
agency to mention little of Tricia while "feeding me the corporate
line" is while still thinking that I am someone who can be "easily
flattered" has yet to recognize either the "method to my
madness" or the fact that I didnt get "off a boat" just
yesterday.
Leveraging
the power of the Internet is "sumthing" [sic] I began doing more than
6 years ago when first "coaching" the most successful and
rapacious SCALs [Shareholder Class Action Litigators] how to "respond to
fast balls thrown at or near head" which you may know is to fire off
"knuckleballs" from which there is no response.
What
I chose to "reveal" to the world in my YET to be heavily broadcasted
communique to Tricia about China no longer needing the west given my "risk
assessment" that they can now begin to exclusively focus on their own
rather significiant market made up of hard working and ever so polite peoples
was not something I decided to do on the "spur of the moment" but
after painstaking and methodical analysis.
I
make it my business-personal to surround myself with the best and brightest
beginning with my wife and to then focus almost exclusively on the
"negatives" who by virtue of "attracting negative
attention" are "best equipped" to help spread my
"findings".
Mankind
having become so extraordinarily selfish in this race for "survival of the
richest" has lost touch not only with his sensivity but most
importantly his mind which in order to logically thought process requires one
to maintain a "steel trap mind" that can only begin to "take
shape" once one understands the insidious business of "money
creation" that was first "perfected" by my DAAC
[DeBeers-Anglo American Cartel] family at the turn of the last century
following the end of the Anglo-Boer-Farmer War.
Without
such Knowledge-Information-Light one can, at best, only hope to "tread
water".
All
the best,
Gary
S. Gevisser
Ps
- May I suggest you read the INTERNET ONLY book, THE DIAMOND INVENTION written
by Hollywood blockbuster author Edward Jay Epstein in order to give you some
rather good background as to why I felt the time was right to write my next
forthcoming book whose subtitle is, "A message to the President".
I
have taken the liberty of editing what I wrote very quickly "sum"
[sic] 24 hours ago by adding just one "sic" that you can see in
capital letters and throwing in the letters "LY" after the word
"brilliant" in the 3rd paragraph.

Re: DECEPTION...---... Tracking No. 06-0602F(16)
Dear Tricia - all I was asking
of you was to check in to whether what
we had been told by a
store your guide took us to was accurate not
simpy in terms of their
representations but whether what they had told
us about the purchases
DID NOT violate
that you are to the best
of my knowledge a government agency and
even if not then to be a
little more forthcoming in terms of what options
would be available to us
bearing in mind again the fact that one of YOUR
GUIDES made a point of
taking us to a store that Y0U HAD EVER SO
CAREFULLY SELECTED.
Now moving on to even
more important matters AND DO NOT test my
patience by waiting a
single moment apart from convening the members
of the board of
directors of Travel Guide
over-the-top deception
of deceptions.
The "unfair trading
practice" which my wife Marie Dion Gevisser and I
experienced immediately
opon being shown to our anything but 5 Star
cabin room with a shower
and toilet all built into one on board the
Regal Cruise "5
Star", 5 Star service only, is very possibly the only thing
preventing
down the benefits of
this so extraordinarily peaceful and brilliantLY fought "battle
of battles" -
"victory of victories" - to its increasingly happy and so hard
working
masses including the
relatively insignificant elder farmers currently displaced
by the 3 Gorge Dam
project that while saving immeasurable lives from death
and "desease"
[sic] due to continuous flooding will
rise up the standard of living of
everyone without
detracting either from the environment that now has remote
villages more easier
waterway accesses or worse yet creating a real estate
inflationary war given
west's real estate
development practices that may in fact make the practices
of
Surely, once these elder
farmers inevitably get their "arms around" the overall
benefits of such a
brilliantly thought through project that may be one of the very
few, possibly the only
truly "good" projects of mankind, the oxymoron of all times,
harnessing the awesome
power of "G-D-NAture" [sic], they would not be so
selfish as their western
elders who have demonstrated beyond a shadow of a
doubt as "western's"
[SIC] continue to allow the mortgaging of their children's futures
through out of control
real estate development that they don’t "give a dam" about
what "extraodarily"
[sic] little remains of their "rights and privileges", few arguing
that
apart from being told
the truth from "minute one" the next most important, the
most basic and precious
human right is the right to clean drinking water leading
to the cultivation of
healthy food resulting in healthy body-healthy mind.
You may not know that
"good English" requires that we use the Latin adverb
"sic" after
there is a grammar or spelling "error" in the
"expression" in quotes.
Bear in mind as you
begin to follow "my train of thought" geared toward taking
you one most
extraordinary Educational Light Journey, my typing at a blinding
speed on an unfamiliar
and very old computer at this Pacific "luk" [sic] hotel
but very clearly
designated in our "itinery" [sic]
"3 Star" in rainy
was never a breakdown of
costs in this one-of-a-kind "eye-opener" trip where
I have almost
"mastered" the expression "I love you" as well
as "You love" me
as in "Wall Eye
Knee" and second, prior to this extraordinary "memorable
been "picture
perfect"; in fact I think it is fair to say everything including the
guides was as good if
not better than all that YOU had clearly delineated in
the so carefully crafted
“itinery” [sic].
I am, however, ever so
aware of the "sly English" influences that is the "thrust"
of this very deeply felt
complaint.
Although not everything
is perfectly clear to MDG and me about
spectacular victory that
could have the Chinese people in AN INSTANT
spreading the
"gains" of such an unheard of victory to each and every
one of your citizens not
yet living the "good life" while increasingly aware
of EXACTLY WHY IT IS
that the western media owned by corrupt corporations
"make it their
business" to focus almost exclusively on the "negative", all
part
of their distraction
game in wanting to grab as much as they can as quickly
as possible before you
all wake up to their over-the-top "superficiality",
WHAT IS crystal clear is
that
it can tell the west to
go "stuff" all their "financial instruments" such as
Treasury Bills that you
have been purchasing with your "excess trade surpluses"
which would in the same
instant turn such "welfare recipient" nations such
as the
the lack of "proper
and adequate" planning on the part of corrupt western
corporations for their
"stake holders'" future, western corporations in "
command and
control" of each and every political party such as the Democrats
and
Republicans anything but "transparent" to mention little of the
past and the
future all coming
"to-get-her" [sic] in the present, the Digital Age a Godsend,
Knowledge-Information-Light
now traveling at "Light-G-D-Speed" [sic] to mention
little of MDG and I
given our "worldliness" that encompasses most of all a unique
and "unversal"
[sic] perspective of the most important subjects, politics, economics
and history are
intimately familiar with such a "bait and switch" business practice
never, however, in our
wildest dreams thinking such a "western influence" had
made its way in to the
psyche of your more educated and so hard working masses.
Such "Oscar"
performances so very much "in our faces" as the cruise
ship's
staff member looked on
in the passage way so smart to "step in" just moments
before our jaws
dropped to the ground to mention little of my drop dead
"gorgious" [sic] and over-the-top brilliant wife no doubt could
have like other females
on the cruise managed
to make the most of the 1 star boat "accomadation" [sic] while
dreaming about having
sex with those very in shape farmers hauling just
"tTOo"
[sic] days ago our
rowing boats over the rocks of a tributary to the Yangtze, for
the first time in my
life I got to witness first hand the benefits of having fat people
on board
who contributed significantly to the bulging muscles of these men
some old enough to be
our fathers displaying their "wares" right in our faces
and to think that it
wasn’t that long ago that they were doing all this in the nude
must have you thinking
right at this moment what exactly is it that I am complaining
about as MDG
continues sound asleep on her extraordinarily hard bed at this 3
Star Pacific Luck Hotel
to mention in passing MDG is fully knowledgeable of my
ability to
"leverage" such a "black spot"
in to an opportunity to do good until
"Kingdom Come".
Turning
"negatives" in an instant in to "positives", always seeing
the "glass as
half
full" versus "half empty" is "Second Nature” to
me, the result of never,
not once, “turning a blind eye to evil"
once figuring out how the "whole system"
works, each of us dealt
cards according to how well we play the "game of life"
which like the game of
chess is getting your opponent to "play to your advantage".
But I am not God and
"know" versus "believe" that while I can afford to be ever
so "chinese"
and very patient TIME IS NOT something I can control.
I am, however, fully
aware given my "risk assessment"
skills of the pending
western world's economic
collapse from which the west will never, not in a
million years, recover
which brings me almost immediately back to the main
purpose of this rather
lengthy communiqué.
First, allow me if
you don’t already know to make you aware that the word
"SIC" is
also a "made up" word used by western kids to denote
that "sumthing
" [sic] is
"cool" to mention little of the digits 1421, The Year China
Discovered
My command of numbers
helps immeasurably in being able to keep track
of a myriad of
things "knowing" versus "believing" that there is no
such thing
as a
"coincidence" that not only does everything "add
up" but more importantly
that "design is
everywhere", just a matter of how one goes about piecing the
"puzzle of
life" together.

shown that had obviously been previously reserved for

the deception EXECUTED by the not exactly rich staff is
what concerns me the
most bearing in mind of course you don’t need foreign
tourists especially
their soon-to-be worthless foreign currencies as the west's
over-the-top fictitious
currencies begin to plummet big time following the "full
release" of my next
forthcoming book dealing with the insidious business of
"money
creation" by my DAAC family that I wrote on scrap pieces of
paper
during this
one-of-a-kind eye-opener trip that has me so eager to come and
live in the Peoples
Republic of Communist China if only to make certain that
such DECEPTION ends
right this instant helped GREATLY with YOU forking
over to me the
additional $600 in cash EXTORTED out of me by the staff of the
5 Star Regal Cruise PRIOR
to my returning to the
Even if it turns out
that this the first cruise where such a deplorable action has
been used so typical of
the most very corrupt western world's business practices
you had to have at least
felt the grumbling that reverberated from my making
others around the world
aware of such deception given again the fact that the
only thing 5 Star was
the service of its staff, the food at best 4 star and the ship
itself 5 star
going on minus 1.
Regal Cruise was not
responsible for our “itinery” [sic] nor did they have anything to
do with you so carefully
spelling out everything else about this trip including all
the other ratings which
were so accurate BUT LEAVING TO OUR IMAGINATION
only the big bold letters
"5 Star".
You have but very few
choices in addressing this very SIGNIFICANT wrong given
how I was left with no
option but to pay the monies demanded given how very few
suites remained to mention
little of the "competiteness" [sic] felt by the other travelers
very much in the same
position which really wasn’t very pleasant.
Moreover, even if I
couldn’t have afforded the extortion monies I would have quite
easily found the monies
by taking up a "collection box" and gone around beginning
with the crew
members offering each of them not only a steep discount on my book
but in order to make my
"queen" totally satisfied to offer each of them an opportunity
to come to work for
me EXCLUSIVELY selling my book that I am quite certain the
Chinese
"Goverment" [sic] and their many supporters all around the world fed
up with the
"hipocrisy"
[sic] of the west would support.
Time to fly.
