Dear Mrs. Francis,

 

I generally do much better in e-mail communications where little if anything gets lost in the translation. Obviously I would have preferred getting your e-mail address directly from you then have to go through the World Wide Wait at the www.delmarschools.com website to mention my continued amazement that you were not able to bring up www.nextraterrestrial.com on your PC when we met earlier today.

 

I make it my business to not only pay attention to what people say but what they don’t say although when I heard you tell me that you have parents donating, “tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars” to the school I almost fell off my chair, nothing to do with your credibility, but more so for its complete lack of relevancy unless of course you were simply trying to tell me that the school didn’t need to raise additional monies although what I heard next directed I assume to me had me floored, “If you want to, you can donate money directly to the school.”

 

Although my dog was the only other living thing in the room, I don’t recall any plants, nor would I suggest that you are a potted plant. Pypeetoe has however, a limited vocabulary and it is more likely he will speak French before speaking English and the odds of him being able to access a bank account I plan to open in his name is highly unlikely although I never say impossible.

 

In the world of quantum mechanics one works simply in probabilities which has for the first time in history as a result of it’s impact on the Digital Age having the have-nots soon knocking on the door of the haves and not afraid to be met by someone pointing at them with a loaded bigger gun. And of course I am exceedingly hopeful that the coming worldwide Revolution although perhaps a little too long winded for those chasing their tails will be less bloody than any other revolution in modern day history.

 

I not only kept very careful track of the time we spent together but what it was that each one of us had to say including my parting comment, “To psar vromai apo to kefali kai dato.” You will surely agree that I didn’t waste any time in cutting to the chase in describing to you my reason for wanting to meet with the principal of a school in what is said to be one of the better school districts in the country?

 

Recapitulation: I wanted a meeting to get your feedback on an idea that some of us think is pretty good, i.e. Kids contribute “stained” clothing with input from the art and science departments. The school then auctions the kids’ individually “labeled” t-shirts in ongoing community fund raising activities as well as on The Internet.

 

I have a number of things on the go these days and feel rather pressed for time but wanted to make certain that I was on time for our 11:30am appointment which began at 11:45am due to another parent needing your attention and your all-important communication to the entire school that probably could have been said in 33 words or less.

 

I ran a rather successful marketing-publishing company for 5 years back in the 1980s made up mostly of women who made me look rather good when I was a good 10 years younger than you which is not to suggest that you could in fact be younger than say 35 years old. In all that time, however, I don’t recall ever giving a speech that lasted as long as yours. I did come in though at a rather dark period just before a series of mass layoffs were about to be announced. In fact I have often been called in during the most trying times to assist in “crisis management” and my track record reflects that I do rather well. Most of my skills though came from playing tough sports like rugby and netball.

 

I have though had my hiccups especially when I don’t get straight talk let alone when people give me the runaround, i.e. we can always make money and lots of it but there is no way that I know of where we can make up for lost time. I can appreciate a different viewpoint since I am a male and can only see what’s up ahead recognizing full well though that you may be catering to some 20% of the teachers who as a result of the shock of receiving notices of a possible lay off could be brain dead; made worse perhaps by the guilt many of them feel especially when one considers the fact that if all the teachers and their lobbyists had locked hands and started protesting en masse and perhaps even camped out at Governor Davis’ State House you wouldn’t find yourself having to deal with people like me who are simply trying to give our kids a better Head Start, i.e. when government workers start telling you that they are here to help you then it is important to hold on to your wallet.

 

I did, however, have a rather pleasant experience the other day at the DMV when I witnessed first hand a government employee going out of her way to assist an immigrant who clearly was not interested in playing by the rule book. He happened to be of oriental persuasion and wanted to sit in the back of the car when his father who had been in the country just two months and didn’t speak a word of English needed to have the instructions of the DMV tester translated. How do you think his father passed the written test?

 

On the other hand I think it is fair to say, wouldn’t you agree that without the public schools support Governor Davis would not have been elected and instead of getting out there and fighting for our kids you folks seem to be hunkering down and acting rather defensive?

 

I not only understand the “risk” markets rather well but I also know a thing or tTOo about human nature but without “proper and adequate” insurance there will be more than 20% of your staff getting notices of a possible layoff and that you can bank right now. When last do you ask for a quote on D&O insurance?

 

Today is in fact my 25th anniversary since leaving South Africa arriving in Chicago on a rather cold and miserable day. The poor job of snow removal would later result in the mayor, “Jane Burn” [sic] eventually losing her seat while folks, those without seat heaters, got burned.

 

I learned a while back that the best approach to responding to fast balls is end the game quickly with a knuckleball. I am far better equipped accomplishing this in person than I am in print for the simple reason to day I cater to a larger audience, a Godsend this Digital Age, wouldn’t you agree?

 

I decided immediately after I got back from our meeting to go on “unemployement” although I doubt that I would be eligible to even apply and of course I couldn’t be bothered with all the paperwork. I did though go to the trouble of notifying my one credit card company who kept calling me to take out “insurance” in the event I were to become “unemployed” and I suspect I could use you as a reference as to why it would be so difficult for anyone to employ me, wouldn’t you agree?

 

Just as I was leaving the house making certain I would be on time for our all-important meeting I had been speaking with one of the co-owners of Hoist, a seemingly successful fitness equipment manufacturer, who is in the process of introducing a school fitness program nationwide. Joe’s mother and I had given him some ideas when we all first met several weeks ago in what took less than the amount of time for my dog to pee on your carpet, just kidding.

 

Pypeetoe gets his name because he has the right angle and universal markings of Pythagoras on his neck although some argue the one marking is not a perfect right angle triangle and the “peetoe” comes from him penchant to pee on his toes. My dog who is normally very calm and relaxed when he is alone with me was unsettled almost from the start of our rather brief meeting. Today, a year ago, he and I returned from a 3+ week trip to Peru where airport security as well as the airline stewards thought he was a “guide dog.”

 

I know you kept thinking that I was Joe’s father even though I told you both in the telephone conversation and when I first sat down again that I was his mother’s “significant other” to mention little of my impressing upon you that I was not meeting with you in my capacity relating to Joe having communicated with other educators across the country and of course I make it my business to take people on educational journeys especially those who have got too big for their boots. I continued, however, to give you the benefit of the doubt that you were a better listener than most men I know although most men I know are better listeners than many women I know credit us for.

 

As a result of today’s session with you I intend to expand on what I think is already at least a billion dollar a year business opportunity for Hoist although it may not be as big as the idea I gave you assuming you and your “awesum” [sic] Charitable Foundation are able to execute.

 

You will also recall how I made it patently clear that if you wanted to take “our” idea without compensating “us” a dime that would be fine with me but of course I also mentioned that I was writing a book, Manager Minute One that we should be our own managers from the get go, i.e. minute one, although I didn’t get into the all that stuff including the fact that people don’t make doormats out of you, you make a doormat out of yourself.

 

I mentioned to you, however, that I had already test-marketed this idea of having kids contribute their “stained tea-shirts” [sic] with their names on it which could then be auctioned to the highest bidder, combining arts and the sciences all into one although I really didn’t get into the science part because I had the sense I might lose you on the Quantum Mechanics aspects of NTT.[1]

 

In my opinion, though, there isn’t a great likelihood of their being a cash register checker in the country who wouldn’t be able to understand what we are doing at NextraTerrestrial.com [NTT] if I spent as much time with them as I did with you. My time, like yours, is very precious and consequently I will be using this e-mail to further express those matters which most people find offensive, i.e. Most people I run into 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 pointed tail or pitched fork to mention little of how this fund raising idea is a whole lot better than baking cookies to mention little of the negative effects of sugar and aspartame while assisting in putting a dent in a school’s budget deficit.

 

Earlier this afternoon Jonathan’s 13-year-old sister walked up to the car while walking home from the bus stop. I had stopped by the side of the road in order to get address a rather more seemingly important matter than this e-mail to you. It is now just after 6:45 pm and I have a dinner scheduled in less than half an hour.

 

The fact that I don’t know about the schools so-called “charitable foundation that f…art and… Why are you talking to me?” was not as insulting as you then suggesting, “Why don’t you just make a direct cash contribution to the school?”

 

You are, in my opinion, proof positive that the problems of this world have nothing to do with race, color, religion or even economics for that matter, simply poor parental religious teaching. You are correct though that I know nothing about how your school system works but you can bet your bottom dollar I intend to find out. I don’t, however, intend to find out more about you although you can now begin to find out more about me by going to take a look at my “hub” website, www.nextraterrestrial.com

 

Again, I don’t know why you were not able to bring my main website up onto your computer and I did check to see that you spelled it correctly; perhaps I should have just given you the www.footsak.com website which was my proving grounds for NTT.

 

I am copying my one programmer Adam Tucker on this e-mail to see if he can explain why your system blew out when you tried accessing the NTT website. I am also taking the liberty of copying my one lawyer-colleague Mr. Jeffrey Krinsk of Finkelstein and Krinsk to see what he thinks about what might be behind as you put it, “For sum reason I first have to go to Yahoo…” [sic] since there is always the possibility that there could in fact be some sort of “conflict of interest” i.e. collusion. I do though come with a very clear warning label.

 

I am also taking this opportunity to advise Jeffrey that I might be able to expand his current lawsuit against Verizon to include a cell phone manufacturer who has been “passing the buck” not to be confused with the story I told you about how Jonathan in making some enquiries on The Internet about a cell phone is now on the receiving end of solicitations from insurance and mortgage companies to name but two industries that are in tail spin, getting to the point of wasting their time to mention little of their money, forget about honor, in prospecting 10-year-olds.

 

Your suggestion that there may in fact be a “conflict of interest” between what I am proposing and what the School’s charitable foundation is currently involved in funding is what first raised my antennae that something was possibly amiss but when you failed to see how I was doing more than simply helping to raise money for the school that it would also arouse the artistic interests of the kids +++ I knew that there existed the possibility that I was dealing with someone who had allowed their formal education to interfere with their learning and of course in my line of business this is not altogether uncommon.

 

Your departing comment coming ever so shortly after suggesting to me that I simply give money to your school, “Our foundation is doing a terrific job and we may not in fact have to lay off any teachers… I cannot endorse your idea” even if true seems out of touch with reality. Furthermore if in fact you are so self-confident to mention so self-sufficient albeit with taxpayers dollars that you wont have to lay off teachers then maybe you should inform not only the 1st year teachers who got notices that they would be possibly laid off but the schools secretary as well so that people like me sitting quietly, minding our own business. won’t have anxiety attacks wondering what will happen to the neighborhood.

 

It is not altogether uncommon, wouldn’t you agree, for people who have lost their jobs, got laid off to do stupid things, perhaps even go so far as to spank a kid, to mention little of why I think this is a perfect time to sell a home in Del Mar and move into say a country estate out in Rancho Sante Fe but I must say it is a little stuffy there wouldn’t you agree?

 

Moreover, on leaving your offices I felt as if I had just met a born and bred Del Martian and please don’t take offense at that since I also live in Del Mar and I have as much right as any parent or taxpayer for that matter to help in whatever way possible to make this budget deficit less of an impact and yes Mrs. Francis you can also bet your second bottom line dollar this budget crisis is going to get a whole lot worse before it gets better and one of the first things I will propose to the new governor of California once Governor Davis gets recalled is to raise property taxes on the very rich, i.e. people who live in places like Rancho Sante Fe whose horse manure has a way of attracting flies although I guess some smart-ass lawyer would argue that such a byproduct should mitigate your exposure.

 

Mrs. Fancis I don’t have much education to speak of but nor am I altogether illiterate and there is one thing I do rather well and that is my knack for making money when I have to. That is not to say that I have all that it takes to make as much money as Jeffrey Krinsk but nor do I have his overhead.

 

Finally, while I waited outside the school entrance trying to catch my breath as my dog darted off for a breath of fresh air, a neighbor friend of ours whose children attend your school happened to think the idea I presented to you was one of the best ideas she has heard in a long while and when I told her that our plan called for the schools to get as much as 90% of the profits, “perhaps even more… and that it wouldn’t cost the school a penny” all she could do was shake her head.

 

This particular lady right now is a very thankful person for the fact that her husband who was recently laid off has now finally found a job up a-ways up north. There are other people on our street not as fortunate. Where there is a will there is a way. Soon you will have the opportunity to examine in detail why willnext.com will eventually take hold to mention little of sellnext.com. Another neighbor happens to be an attorney for one of the many public companies I know a thing or tTOo about and yes to repeat, politicians are not born they are raised in neighborhoods where parents leave the disciplining and the child care to the schools and God help those children who are unfortunate to have disconnected principals and teachers. Another household on our street has two attorneys one though is a recovering lawyer hoping that she wont be part of the first round of layoffs.

 

I was though very impressed with your grounds-man who seemed genuinely concerned with the welfare of the kids impressing upon you the need to make that all-important public announcement regarding the wet grounds which reminds me of what took place this Saturday while watching Jonathan play baseball.

 

It was raining cats and dogs and some of the parents were screaming to the coaches, one of them happened to be Jonathan’s father, to call the game off. One parent whose son was not even a member of either team called the “Big Kahuna” coach over and said, “I would not let my son play under these conditions.” The “Big Kahuna” coach seemed to take the matter under advisement and did nothing. I kept quiet all the while since Jonathan’s mother was now calling out as well as all the other parents who had come off the benches and were now all standing right against the fence screaming in unison at both coaches. It took though another 5 minutes before Jonathan’s father who is the “assistant coach” turned to the “Big Kahuna” and said, “It is our call to make” and the kids let the field completely drenched.

 

Mrs. Francis do with e-mail as you see fit but please I beg of you think twice about showing any retribution toward Jonathan.

 

I am just killing a couple more minutes before going to this other meeting and I am reminded of a gentleman, I would say well into his 80s, who knocked on the window of the parked car just before Danielle showed up. Apparently his daughter who now has kids of her own went to Del Mar Heights just up the road on Boquita. He refers to himself as a “Luddite…a person who doesn’t believe in technology.” He also happens to be retired mechanical engineer. I told him about my experience earlier in the morning which brought the broadest smile to his face. I am actually surprised he didn’t invite me in although he told me he was just recovering from a rather bad cold.

 

Right now the masses of the world are distracted by what is going on with Iraq. The masses though have been distracted for more than a couple of weeks, perhaps as much as 2,000 years. If you were to ask anyone to give a date when the Roman empire fell few if any would be able to provide you with any definitive timeframe for the simple reason the Roman empire didn’t crumble it simply morphed into the Catholic Church.

 

Just when the elder man left to go back into his house, he had thought I was part of the construction crew belonging the next door house that was under construction, my mentor, Amos Wright, a man as close to me today as my father and perhaps better understands what I am doing with what remains of my time than anyone else on this planet, called to check up on me wondering if in fact I had received a bullet to the back of my head.

 

Mr. Wright happens to be a Catholic; at least he attends a Catholic church regularly. Most Roman Catholics, like most Jewish people like most Anglicans, Moslems and Buddhists and even some atheists are good, law abiding citizens wanting to do the right thing and like most Americans no more than 4 pay checks from being out on the street.

 

Mr. Wright is all of the above but like me he is anything but being close to being in the “poor house.” However, as a former Marine and Navy Officer during WWII he understands fully who will bear the brunt of the any attack while those mostly responsible for the state this world is in continue to play the time test game of pointing fingers.

 

I didn’t come to you to play you a game of chess which you know is what many people think life is all about, i.e. getting your opponent to play to your advantage. Instead of listening carefully to how I was in fact helping solve your problem all you heard was, “change the system” words I never used but what you apparently heard scared the hell out of you.

 

Good day,

 

Gary S. Gevisser

 

 

Ps – I once had a stint in the diamond business and your “blue white” looked ever bit as good any diamond I saw traded on 47th Street in New York City. When some folks butt up against me they often times feel like they are in need of a stent. Mr. Krinsk and I both have friends and family who are excellent cardiologists. I also happen to know a thing or too about how some people feign illness.

 

Be advised that I will be out of town for perhaps as much as two weeks as I meet with a variety of individuals including, I hope, the father of Mr. Devin Standard who is the executor of my estate. Mr. Kenneth Standard happens to be a retired executive, Harvard trained attorney, who once did his thing or tTOo while general counsel for Bristol Meyers. Today as president of the New York Bar Association I suspect he will be quite interested to hear my perspective on the repercussions that will befall his 68,000 membership base especially those who have colleagues doing business with the current Democratic Californian stronghold who played a pivotal role in the rigging of the last Gubernatorial elections held as you may recall on November 8th, 2002.

 

Perhaps things would have turned out quite differently today had my father not decided to return to South Africa. Bernard Nathan Gevisser although a retired fighter-bomber-pilot during the WWII has a rather different style these days to me but then again he is 80 years old and despite being far better looking than me still feels the need to sugar coat issues unlike Mr. Wright who I would love you to meet one day. At 86 Amos Wright is still quite a catch and I don’t think it has anything to do with him possibly being one of the richest men in the world. Now make my day and define rich, better yet define “cashflow” because I am prepared to bet you your third to last dollar you won’t find two CFOs on Wall Street who can agree on a precise definition of what is meant by just those two rather simple words. 

 

PPs – When Jonathan’s mother, Ms. Marie Dion Stewart, returned from her art class I informed her that you had called. Please when you speak with my “travel companion” who is now on a 9+ year life journey with me measure your words as carefully as I have measured mine even though I don’t plan to reread this script even once. Second, reassure her that whatever our differences neither she nor her son will get any bad vibe. Remember, I came to you as nothing more than a concerned citizen wanting to make certain that I did everything possible to ensure our future. You will agree that the children are our future and like our animals are very sensitive to touch. Jonathan happens to be a rather exceptional individual and I can assure you so is his mother.

 

God Bless America and may God bless George W. Bush to continue to lead us all in this rather uncertain world, “…The risks of inaction are far worse…There are new… fair notice… set an example…our goal will not be achieve overnight…”

 

I just noticed Toni Cieri perhaps the most well known and aggressive real estate broker sitting across the bar here at Il Fornio from where I am typing and just this very moment a good buddy of mine tapped me on the shoulder. Jim is on my e-mail list.

 

Time to fly.

 



[1] One of my family’s businesses that fell under the Moshal Gevisser Group of Companies was called Gipsy Tea & Coffee which I hope to reintroduce at the Ccrest Bed & Breakfast Café in Minehead, England and of course it would be a good place for you to seek rest. I, “4 I” [sic] plan on this spot being my final resting place assuming the locals would accept a transplant, wouldn’t you agree?

 

Jewish people talk in terms of an “eye for an eye” whereas Christians are taught more in terms of The meek shall inherit the earth. I, for one, happen to believe in the fundamental teachings that come mostly from science with a bit of mother nature thrown in, curved balls simply reflecting the orbit of celestial structures such as planets, much like what comprises a complete set of teeth placed end to end; 64 in total throughout our lifetime or simply put two adults combining also equal 64 set of teeth that tend to unwind as the rot from the waste line is forced up into the brain, a vacuum a horrible thing to interfere with unless of course one’s intentions are good.

 

Thomas Edison realized that light could be sustained, either increased or decreased or even held constant by placing a filament within a glass tube much like what the folks who invented the first computers did with vacuum tubes all precursors to the Digital Age that for sum reason got lost in the so-called Dark Ages between the time of Pythagoras and Leonardo De Vinci.

 

Veni whiny sticky vici” [sic] introduced some really horrible things into the equation. Working backwards we had English being ripped out of the Latin, one of the spiritual languages like Hebrew and Arabic by politicians who wanted to keep the masses at bay. Shows like “Bay Watch” soon evolved and of course the politicians of politicians turned a blind eye to the going ons of President Clinton for the simple reason they were blinded with their own self-importance much like the TOES of today, those genius astrophysicists who want to build ever faster accelerators that they know will prove little more than what we already know today.

 

Although some 92% of Americans supposedly believe in God for some reason we don’t seem to question some of these genius mathematicians and physicists the smartest of whom all embraced God certainly towards the end of their lives like Einstein to mention little of the role women played from the time of Pythagoras to folks like Galileo who had the courage to admit his female relative gave him more than a hand but for some reason the “hand of God” got lost in the shuffle unless of course you happened to be on either one of the two space shuttles that ended up in quite a spectacular fire work display with the genii coming up with statements like “We have just lost LOTV.”

 

Why is it do you think it is these folks come up with something as effortless as LOTV for “Loss Of The Vehicle” other than to keep us constantly guessing what they actually do for a living which is to play pong.

 

Before getting into the subject matter that I believe balances out the universal equation that supports in no uncertain terms the “hand of God” we need to take a step back and exam the principles of Pythagoras which prove out beyond a shadow of doubt that we could have in fact bypassed the Dark Ages if only we had put more women in charge.

 

Arithmetic 101 begins as follows and you don’t need to be a Latin scholar to know not to follow the crowd:

 

I+I=II, II+I=III, III+I=IV, I+II+III+IV=X=10=binary operations that lead to bytes, i.e. The meek WITH TEETH shall inherit the earth.

 

In other words, we have bytes kicking in and why “kick a gift horse in the mouth” unless you are certain he-she-it won’t kick back? You naturally produce a gun and then another gun until such time as the person with the biggest one gets it up the kazoo by none other than you know who?

 

For the brain dead let me explain this further. Computer memory comes in multiples of 8 which is the closest looking number to the infinity sign simply requiring a right-angle rotate which brings us back to Pythagoras who was the first scientist to take superstition and mysticism out of the equation with his “This and this equals that.”

 

So what became of the Roman numbering system that had spirituality like the words of Plato in Latin written all over it. Like too many good things it comes to an end, for the masses that is for the simple reason that those in power don’t particular care for the masses to be educated particularly the liberal elitists and no doubt Plato was an elitist but he had some pretty good ideas and understanding of human nature but lacked the mathematics to mention little of my knowing little or nothing about his economic plan although I seem to recall him not being in favor of anyone owning land which is in fact at the heart of the man’s greed to mention little of his revenge never to forget, however, the Newtonian principle that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

 

So what became of the simplicity of the number system that foretold everything we ever needed to know about God, man and the coming of the Digital Age some 500 years before the birth of Christ? This is a question I have pondered for some time for it seems to me that eventually there will be no where for anyone to run given the rapacious nature of man to consume everything he sets his eyes on.

 

So who is the sickest amongst us given what you are now about to hear for perhaps the first time unless of course you are tapped in to my NextraTerrestrial website directory?

 

It is those who have allowed their formal education to interfere with their learning who think that they can get away with everything including murder. And yes it is murder to kill any living cell especially that of a child who has divine spirit placed ever so neatly in their skull with two eyes and two ears and one mouth so that they should listen twice as hard as they speak.

 

But once they get it, once they understand how screwed up the system is then they should feel compelled to express themselves using their god given intellect and not to think they are smarter than anyone else but for the grace of God go each one of us.

 

None of us are better than the other but without the other particle of mass we cannot exist for it takes an uninterrupted power supply from the time of birth to propel each one of us forward and any interference even the scream of an errant bird is enough to shut off the ears and the eyes that are so impressionable.

 

Choosing our words ever so carefully is as important as choosing our partners and why the Digital Age now allows people from all walks of life to communicate and to create a melting pot that has us all blending in to one, moving away from black & white which have no color to a magical point where all the colors are magnified allowing us all to see the richness of the heavens that are drifting further and further away.

 

We all know about the $64,000 question but what came before? I was first called “into action” when momworker63 professed a plea for help. The number 63 has appeared immeasurable times throughout my life but none more so when at Igazu falls where 3 countries, Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay  meet in a .

 

While my “travel companion” slept at the Hotel on the Argentinean side of the border listening to the gushing water a hop-jump-and-a-scotch away although it was the Argentineans at the bar who were doing the drinking at the wee hours of the morning at the start of last year’s World Cup, I turned to a gentlemen who spoke little of no English and told him, “don’t worry in the 63rd minute Argentina will score.”  Now of course I was only kidding with the guy because I am not a psychic, never once having received a direct message from God who probably recognizes fully that I am going deaf as much as some folks wish right now I were in fact dead.

 

When, however, it appeared that Argentina did in fact score in the 63rd minute I decided it was time to have a scotch. The shaking that occurred was nothing like I had experienced in any earthquake in California to mention little of the noise that white washed any sound that was coming from the thunder of the falls that today helps put me to sleep each and every time I place my head on my pillow and of course it is nice to have a “good looking” partner at one’s side.

 

I have been blessed in more ways than I can ever explain including having next to me at the most critical times women who just happen to have been not only beautiful but not fixated in the least in terms on money or fortune and of course I had to have something to make up for not having “good looks” which is probably why I keep losing my passport and drivers license.

 

I have known though that with my command of mathematics I could have in fact had a license to print money even though I have no more than a high school education in this particular field to mention little or no scholarly knowledge when it comes to physics. But for some reason I can compute very quickly once I get my arms around a problem which involves both mathematics and physics with just a little help from folks who know a whole lot more than me who also never allowed their formal education to interfere with their logic reasoning most of all having a primeval fear only of God.

 

I even had trouble at times defining things such as prime numbers but once I focus long enough on the problem and most importantly get enough sleep I can rip to shreds the charlatans out there, those in particular who see themselves as Gods, the so-called TOES, those members of the scientific community who think they are above it all never for one minute realizing that the discoveries out there come with an ever careful guiding hand that each of our brains are not for the taking nor should anyone think they can outsmart God who commands the most critical element in the equation e=mc² as it applies to the workings of the universe in “deep space.”

 

The English language although ripped out of the spiritual languages still has vestiges of spirituality contained within it both within the lettering as well as the numbers and what attracted me to the Los Angeles Article on January 11th 2002 was simply at first the numbers 77.

 

The fact that no one had recognized that there existed a symbol resembling the star of david is all that I found troubling for I had come to realize over the years that as we accumulated matter and things that mattered meant really very little as long as we got our “tits and ass” entertainment no different to the Roman times which then morphed in to the construction of temples using and bearing the name of Jesus Christ who seems to have opposed all that very same opulence he saw amongst the Jewish elders of his time.

 

The disconnects, however, are perhaps the most profound when one sees how Einstein’s equation provides all the evidence we need of not only the existence of God but the manner in which he guides us, that it is incumbent upon each one of us to stand up and be counted and not to be sheep to the slaughter. Those in command however, in their desire to maintain their privileges are hell bent on complicating matters, that by using nonsensical acronyms and phrases like “beware of the sheep in wolf’s clothing” as if to suggest that perhaps even some sheep would be stupid enough not to recognize a wolf donning a sheep skin jacket, the masses will eventually be so distracted to simply fall asleep.

 

I once attended a church service in England in December 2001 wearing a sheep skin jacket, perhaps the second church service I had ever attended. I planned on staying a short while to listen to the organ player who I had heard practicing the day before, before leaving on a rather long walk that eventually had me buying another of my great buys.

 

For a Jewish boy, let alone an orthodox Jewish boy, going to a church service is enough to rattle any cage and of course I knew exactly what I was doing including making a relatively healthy donation to the church which I knew would get back to my stuffy yet lovable English folks who happen to live in this one village in the English countryside, albeit probably the only “visible” Jewish people in all of England.

 

I very rarely exaggerate and only when to make a point or tTOo but when I do it is always very clear that I am doing so but I don’t ever lie, steal or cheat which brings me back to the number 63, that appeared on my digital watch when I visited Machu Picchu a second time last year with my current “travel companion” who is no more beautiful and special than my previous “travel companion” of almost 10 years who introduced me first to the world of mathematics when she took me to her mother’s island of Samos where Pythagoras is said to come from.

 

Little or nothing of his writings have been preserved but his message lives on and I can probably relate more to him than anyone else I have ever read about to mention little of having a rather large birth mark on my right thigh that comes and goes almost like the tide although I generally only notice it when I get a little worked up or when exercising around the ocean.

 

Calculating the odds has been my passion from a very young age made easier by my focusing on and being around ocean waves which unlike a controlled experiment in a laboratory cannot ever be repeated which consequently helped test my mind to the limit and it can be as exhausting as if competing in say an Iron Man competition which is why I mostly walk although if truth be told for the past 10 odd years I have mostly laid at the foot of the Del Mar cliffs which provide the shade as I have pondered the inner workings of the universe trying to make sense of the mathematics that go back and forth within my brain, where control is clearly not in my hands which led me to draw the connection between “deep space” and each of our brains both vacuums where matter and anti-matter cancel out one another.

 

The forces at play kept leading me back to Einstein’s e=mc² which I knew made perfect sense from our perspective here on planet earth but which couldn’t explain in clear enough terms to me at least the fact that the billions of other galaxies out there were moving away from us at an accelerating rate.

 

Although I haven’t spent much time talking with physicists to explain the inconsistencies I know enough about Chaos Theory in terms of how the markets work particularly the stock market to know that most if not all of them including folks like Stephen Hawkings were mostly full of shit.

 

Now I think it is okay to use a word like “shit” even though my mother wouldn’t approve but then again her generation had their chance to make this world a better place and they blew it. I would rather put my faith quite frankly in folks like Eminem than folks who I know know no better than many of their ancestors who wandered aimlessly in the desert for 40 odd years.

 

I could easily get sidetracked in to exploring how on earth these folks managed to make love given the stench and the lack of hygiene but I have no doubt that God somehow found a way to make it bearable for some of them produce enough offspring which now brings me to the another rock group by the name of Offspring who like Eminem seem to have got a lot of things right and are no where near as pornographic as the pictures we shall soon see coming out of Iraq which brings me to the French.

 

It so happens that the French conglomerate Vivendi [V] happen to own 63% of Vivendi Environmental [VE] who happen to own 100% of a not so little company called U.S. Filter whose executives soon after meeting with the folks who rigged the Gubernatorial elections on November 8th 2002 then flew to Paris for a board meeting where no doubt they gave Mr. Messier a full run down on their meeting with Governor Davis back on or around December 28th 2001 and it was unlikely that Mr. Andy Seidel forgot his meeting with the two co-managing partners of Wetherly Capital a week or so later at U.S. Filters headquarters in the California dessert where a little parcel of some 42,000 “prime” acres were being “held up” for grabs.

 

Now what Mr. Messier who is now deposed knew or wanted to know is neither here nor there but what is certain is that the man who arranged a series of meetings including another meeting with the Governor of California, Ho chi Min Davis would later find a job at his old stomping ground, i.e. U.S. Filter.

 

All these meetings were arranged while I was on my walk in the English countryside getting a breath of fresh air but I returned to the United States on Xmess Eve hoping to be spend the next day with friends preparing for New Year’s Eve when I had arranged to have my great 94 year old friend, Anne L. Miller join my significant other and I for a once in a lifetime celebration. Mrs. Miller was now in an old age home and we all knew she didn’t have that much time left but when my phone rang on Christmas day just after I had finished reading Stephen Hawking’s The Universe in a Nutshell I was still a little shocked to hear that this very special lady had passed away.

 

While in England I had communicated with her via a cell phone that had been placed by the side of her bed and every so often she would use the phone to try and communicate with me even though she didn’t have a phone number to reach me in England. When I returned to the nursing home after her death I picked up the cell phone to see the activity and there were a number of things revealing including her attempts to reach her attorneys who failed to show up despite my making them aware of Mrs. Miller’s requests to be moved closer to the ocean near her home of some 51 odd years.

 

Mrs. Miller had in fact started to lose her mind but when she met a year or so earlier with another lawyer there was no question as to what she wanted to do with her estate. I had though talked her out of giving a not altogether insignificant holdings to the Salvation Army since I wasn’t convinced the this charitable organization was any better than then say the Red Cross or  the United Way for that matter and that she should keep her immediate family as her “soul heirs” [sic].

 

In due course I will be taking matters up with both her nephew who had primary medical responsibility for Mrs. Miller as well as the law firm I had put her in touch with assuring her at the time “If they don’t’ behave themselves I will make certain there they have both ‘proper & adequate’ liability insurance in place.”

 

In today’s market the term “proper & adequate” are akin to the Social Security Trust being solvent, certainly they appear both to me as oxymorons.

 

I wrote a piece to my significant other’s 13-year-old on this subject matter and I have a Part II all ready to go but first I must complete how we go from 63 which was the angle at which the sun rose relative to where I was standing when visiting Machu Picchu with my “travel companion” who goes between “significant other”, “travel companion” and Marie, at will.

 

The will to survive longer and richer than anyone else is at the heart of most people’s discontent especially those who already have more than what they need, where their wants will always exceed their needs for the simply reason that when they look out and see such a wide expanse they think anything and everything is possible just by virtue of being able to see further despite their eyesight getting poorer,  forgetting once again the Newtonian principle of for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

 

Einstein too forgot this rather important fundamental principal which brings me closer to the $64,000 question that requires that we brush our teeth at least twice a day, dental floss at least once a day and most of all make sure we have good breath for without teeth we are nothing but gums, never to be smug.

 

The meaning of life is all about a search for the truth which requires that we first define what is meant by truth. Most would agree that this is a rather difficult word to describe even though it is used all the time, perhaps more so than any other word in any language.

 

It has though existed from the beginning of time and is every bit a part of our DNA and of course when we speak about truth especially when it comes to people who lie, steal and cheat we say things like, “Time to draw a line in the sand.”

 

If we go back and start listing the four lettered words that end with “and” we come up with the following:

 

Wand

Sand

Rand

 

And we stop there and begin to examine what happens when things are interfered with just as in shifting sands and we come up with word WAR.

 

Continuing:

 

Land

Hand

Band

Aand” [sic].

 

Witch [sic] stands for “Blah blah …”

 

It is not so much that history has a way of repeating itself as much as man has a way of avoiding the truth which he accomplishes in rather strange ways.

 

Some simply follow the ostrich and stick their heads in the sand, others think that God will come along and wave a wand, give a hand, forgetting that God gave of his inheritance right at the start with the “sun, the wind, the currants which are supposed to equal a healthy climate” [sic].

 

Man is though very sick when he chooses to avoid the lessons of the past including only the fittest survive and those who profit unseemingly out of other peoples’ despair will get their comeuppance when the time comes to meet their maker but it is up to each of us on this planet to protect God’s will which is the land each of us inherited at the get-go.

 

The failure of man to band together in one unified force has been the death nail to many who have tried the impossible given man’s penchant for greed, to die not just the richest amongst all the species, nor simply the richest person in the world which most would agree only one person is capable of that particular feat and therefore when we say stupid things like “It is not important that I die the richest person in the world” it is simply more of an excuse to continue in one same old tiring let alone boring routine.

 

The indifferent are no better nor any worse though than the few out of control rapacious folks who are fixated on dying the richest persons in the grave for their indifference allows these folks to not only acquire the biggest guns, build the biggest fences, they also allow these rotten characters to interfere with their wave patterns.

 

The instant one turns a blind eye to evil one creates short circuits within the brain that forces one’s mind to go literally around in circles and why perhaps we just shake our heads when we finally get it or just before we get blown away with the truth.

 

The truth began with the number 10, the very beginnings of the Digital Age but no one wanted to listen to what Pythagoras and his inner circle which included women were saying and so they went their own way not having I assume the tools to prove the existence of God that would possibly unite the masses.

 

Then Jesus came along and he thought that with miracles such as walking on water he would convince the masses of God’s divine intervention and of course he created a ground swell movement that knocked the socks off the Jewish elders to mention little once again of the Romans emperors who eventually embraced a religion that is Jewish in every sense other than it seems the early Christians had less commentaries.

 

Jewish people though have this thing about Jesus being the “son of God” and poke fun at Jesus supposedly walking on water but yet every Passover we sing ourselves to high heaven with the parting of the Red Sea never for one minute thinking that perhaps God didn’t have a hand in it at all and maybe it was simply the wolves following behind who huffed and puffed which allowed the little piggies to survive and today we have things like my dog, Pypeetoe which my significant other mostly calls “Little Piggy” and which bring out the best in folks like Jeffrey Krinsk who make fortune after fortune keeping the scoundrels in check.

 

Recently my “travel companion” her son and I agreed to split my dog Pypeetoe 3 ways. Jonathan gets the head because he likes Pypeetoe’s licks and kisses, Marie gets his hind quarters because she likes mostly his athletic thighs and I was left with his belly which cost me some $50 per week to feed.

 

It is all in the numbers and whether or not one believes in Jesus Christ even going so far as to question whether in fact he even existed seems OK with GOD which is the reverse of my Mini Cooper S’ license plate that reads DOG KO, as long as one has some belief system even if it is the fairy Godmother who watches over you especially those disenfranchised, those raised in dysfunctional homes where there exists the possibility for the child to somehow insulate him or herself from all the chaos around.

 

Instead of going around and around in circles and we know in pure mathematics there is no such thing as a perfect circle, we should be going back and forth constantly gathering evidence to improve the odds to the point that one begins to think in probabilities, which may account for why when Jewish people pray they have this sway but never should we swagger.

 

Jewish people were unquestionably blessed and the archeological records are irrefutable to mention little of the messages that stem from the father of all the great religions. Abraham may have done worse things than eat ham but he was someone who knew how to trade, how to add value and perhaps for that reason alone he was chosen for the rigorous test of converting heathens into a belief that the celestial world was more than a bunch of gobbledygook all stuck together for each to his own to do with as he or she felt fit, to simply ravish in the sunlight and consume as if each one owned the land that we all know can breath fire at any moment.

 

It is the light from within that each one of us knows about that is constantly with us which brings me back to the word truth. Truth is something that is an absolute, it cannot change under any circumstance no matter what, no matter how the time changes, casting shadows, bringing out shadowy characters, the truth remains absolute which is why it is such a difficult word to define.

 

When, however, we see, hear or touch something beautiful it is likely to take our breath away although the first thing we do is take a deep breath. Another truth is when we say the words, “I am,,,” No one other than ourselves can describe who we are, not even our partners let alone our parents no matter how much they may believe they are so in touch since after a period of time spent burying one’s head in the sand, throwing salt over one’s shoulder, spitting 3 times believing that God is some type of fairy who will just interrupt his busy schedule to lend you a helping hand or worse yet protect you from making bad decisions you have to be totally nuts and of course the more short-circuits you experience eventually you will go nuts.

 

If, however, you are blessed with responsible parents who simply provide you with the basics, good nutrition, a safe haven and get the hell out of the way once you begin to walk and simply are there to provide cushioning in the event of a fall then you quickly learn the 1,2,3s or in the case of the English language, ABC as in Always Be Cool.

 

There is nothing worse than an over controlling parent who tends to smother the child with blankets as they sweep their shenanigans under the rug and why the Digital Age that has us going back and forth as in 10 and 01 is in my opinion the final Godsend for us to get our acts together once and for all.

 

The shifting sands just like the Red Shift that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the other galaxies are moving away from us at an accelerating rate are simply more of the signs of the hand of God which brings me once again to e=mc² which like the breath we breath, like the words “I am” that first appear in the Old Testament is an absolute truth and in my opinion irrefutable proof of God’s ongoing presence.

 

This incredible equation which Einstein no doubt realized towards the end of his life was a gift to him from God explains in no uncertain terms the workings of the universe both inside and outside of a vacuum.

 

No credible scientist would dispute that e=mc² provides a complete coverage of how matter works within what many refer to as spaceship earth that allows us not only comprehend physics in a rather eloquent fashion but more importantly no one has come even close to suggesting that this genius equation is wrong.

 

It doesn’t, however, explain everything about the inner workings inside of a vacuum which is what “deep space” is in so far as the precise definition attributed to this masterful equation but it works nevertheless once we change m which equals mass to being the constant and make C which equals the speed of light the variable.

 

Folks though especially those in a rut, those who have managed to work within the status quo, some having achieved the highest orders of science in particular are slow to change and generally only do so when forced.

 

The forces of nature are bearing unquestionably down on all of us right now but it has nothing whatsoever to do with God. It is all of our making, our lack of participation in the things that matter our focus on each of our individual agendas especially those of us educated who have allowed our education to interfere with our learning.

 

The collapse of the insurance industry will soon be the death nail in the stock market which was topsy turvy almost from the very start. Only a mug would play the stock market to begin with and of course I am now forced to define mug. Suffice to say, however, that anyone with half a brain knows that for every dollar made in the stock market someone loses a dollar to mention little of the lack of creativity within large organizations who are so disconnected from their owners through the hiring of professionals like lawyers and accountants who simply help in the fiddling.

 

There cannot, however, be any fiddling with the truth and once folks everywhere understand that e=mc² is proof positive of a higher force then perhaps they will take to the streets and start demanding more of their politicians to mention little of their teachers who should know better, at least be prepared to listen very carefully to what others perhaps not as educated as them have to say about things that matter, i.e. how to make sure that they don’t imprint their set of poor values on impressionable minds.

 

As with any great painting the values, the different shades of gray, remain constant with every brush stroke and the full spectrum of light make up of the 3 primary colors only comes to life when we move away from the edges, the so-called black and white neither of which are a color.

 

The same when it comes to those folks caught in the middle of a squeeze which is what is going on right now with those on the extremes both the left and the right working in concert using the media which is anything but mainstream to flush out anyone who dares to even challenge the status quo.

 

When, however, the ends meet, those on the extremes will be the first to succumb; the person though with the best bum will eventually stand tallest.

 

The tallest trees may attract the most wind but it the wind makes them strong as well and the so-called mighty, especially those who pursue the mighty-buck are in for one hell of a big surprise.

 

Relatively few people know much about art and are happy to have paintings dawning their walls that are bright colors, lack precision but have a signature on the bottom meaning everything and nothing. I have maintained for some time that the art I have been collecting over the years is my most valued asset but in the course of the past several months the art I have purchased from significant other’s two children may surpass in value any of my masterpieces and the ones I treasure the most, the ones that few critics in the world of art who know something about art would ever argue differently, are those painted by perhaps the greatest painter of our times, Sebastian Capella.

 

It is not important what one does in order to make a living as long as one does it well, to the best of one’s ability never though to turn up one’s nose at what gives others pleasure even if in fact they appear to have their heads up their asses when deciding what art to place on their living rooms.

 

Every so often I do get arrogant but it doesn’t last very long especially when you are surrounded by 3 individuals and two dogs especially Pypeetoe who thinks nothing of plunking himself right on top of one’s aching joints who all make no bones about the need for me to keep my ego in check and of course I have to pay attention to the animals, most of all the bird we rescued from the cluttered and darkened garage of Marie’s ex-husband who remains out of the loop but will soon get his comeuppance and anyone who chooses once again to interfere will find themselves not simply on the receiving end of a knuckleball but party to a “tortuous interference” business lawsuit.

 

I have learned to go back and forth dealing with a myriad of subjects and understanding ever so well at this time the inner workings of the universe that choice is ours that free will is a gift from God in order that each one of us execute his will making it incumbent upon each one of us to hold the next person in check for if there is just one negative in the equation it make the entire equation collapse and the world at this point is in a state of collapse no different to an imploding star.

 

The signs are everywhere and it is up to each one of us to do our part and make sure we stay informed and not buy into the rhetoric of others particularly the media who operate in worse than a vacuum, beyond the mindset of rational thought for the simple reason they are all caught up in their own bullshit of believing the teleprompters placed in front of them as though their producers, their managing editors are Gods, no different to the NASA officials who choose what pictures to take and when to take them irrespective of what logic calls for.

 

When you start to think that your shit don’t stink then it is a question of time before you start consuming to the point that your anus cannot function that well with the net effect being a drift towards the brain first stopping off though at the “aufaces” [sic] that protrude and God forbid one is breast feeding only God help the infant who is probably better off with infant formula.

 

The brain is a terrible thing to lose and how it comes about that a Del Martian like me with little formal education who can only remember things taught in his Latin class as in “Amo amas Amat…” never to be a doormat, never to sweep anything under the rug especially the person “you love”, a total vacuum can  nevertheless compute that something is amiss and the “masses” will eventually take to the streets to hold the scientific community accountable when they fail on several levels to disclose the truth, none more so then how to explain to the individual on the street the implications of the Red Shift which has shown for some time beyond a shadow of a doubt that the speed of light varies when traveling through a vacuum like “deep space” which is essentially all that area that surrounds spaceship earth which most healthy brained individuals would agree constitutes the vast expanse of the universe, to mention little of the small percentage of the brain most of us use when all we hear is the mass media going blah blah blah.

 

Whichever way one examines the light waves they are either expanding or contracting but they are certainly not standing constant which is what one would expect in terms of Einstein’s e=mc² which stands to reason even if one doest accept that it is the hand of God that “switches” things “on” and “off” but with a rather steady hand much like a dimmer switch.

 

By switching the constant where it belongs, i.e. mass, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, nothing therefore being lost or for that matter gained, one is able to conclude that energy best represented in a “wave” form is adjusted up or down depending on the “gift” of light to the point that the quest for a perpetual motion machine is right before our eyes as long as we can compute simple math.

 

If we can create Energy from within using the existing forces of nature within spaceship earth and applying the principles of how energy, matter and light operate within a vacuum much akin to what our brains are all about then even if the sun were to stop shining, even if “light” as we know it were to come to almost a complete standstill we would be able to function.

 

In other words as long as the speed of light does not get below one, reach zero, i.e. where matter and anti-matter cancel themselves out, we will at worst find ourselves in a position where E=M which according to my measurement system is when 3=13 which then brings us full circle.

 

The quest to calculate Pi commonly referred to in mathematical terms as 22/7 has reached well over the 100 billion mark decimal point although I simply like to stop at the 8th decimal point since everything seems to repeat itself after that mark. It is often a black mark when folks repeat themselves for it loses interest after a while much like why some people despite having good relations with their spouse decide to test out the market place looking for no doubt a change of pace.

 

It is very easy for some folks to get caught up in their own little world especially if they have a command of numbers but one has to be at least a little bit truthful with oneself in terms of how interesting the number 3.14285714 is after a while.

 

Pythagoras in all likelihood never got his arms around understanding artificial light which requires an appreciation at least of negative numbers including things like the square root of negative one which continues to baffle the minds of most scientists even the smartest out there the so-called theoretical scientists who have to get by each day reminding themselves, “Now listen here yoyo, integers are both real and imaginary, blah blah blah” otherwise they would go simply go nuts.

 

Someone like Pythagoras who hadn’t let I assume his waste line get out of control, never feeling the need to burn the candle on both ends simply stayed true to the things that made perfect sense. Instead of constantly taking away he simply stuck to adding and stopped probably at the number 10 when God impressed upon him, Ten is Enough.

 

Enough is Enough which is how I began my quest to bring equilibrium to the market place by attacking the pride of the most rapacious beginning with someone I knew something about, someone who owned a business I knew more about than the average Joe Blow, and most of all I got to ride alongside Ronald “The Finagle King” Perelman some 10 years ago in an elevator.

 

Making a pitch shouldn’t take more than the time it takes to go up ten floors in an elevator and so Ms. Laurie “Fancy” Francis I must now get to work on condensing all this and probably the million odd words I have written over the past 3+ years in to verse that takes no more than 15 seconds for the average literate person to read.
