[ItsAllAboutMeMan] Re: Terry Williams will die on October 3

 

Dear Emelia,

I am opposed to the death penalty under any circumstances.  However, I have to admit that I am skeptical about this murderer's back story. Who are these group of men that sexually abused him over and over again?  The Gay Mafia? I'd have to hear more about this case before I'll jump on this bandwagon.

Child abuse victim Terry Williams killed the man who raped him for five years -- now Terry faces the death penalty in three weeks. Help stop his execution.
Sign Sue's Petition

Matt -

Terry Williams is facing the death penalty in three weeks for killing the man who repeatedly raped him.

But when Terry was convicted, the jury didn't know the whole story. At the time of his trial, jurors say they had no history or background of the sexual assault and abuse that Terry Williams had suffered for years.

Terry was brutally raped for five years, beginning when he was thirteen, by an older man he trusted -- Amos Norwood. When the jury learned his information after the trial, five jurors came forward to say that they no longer supported his death sentence. Even Norwood's widow has forgiven him, and does not want Terry to be executed.

Sign the petition on Change.org asking Governor Tom Corbett of Pennsylvania to stop Terry's execution scheduled on October 3 -- click here to add your name.

"When I heard about Terry Williams' life and his legal case, I knew I had to do what I could to stop the scheduled execution of a man who should not be on death row and would not be on death row had the jury heard all the relevant evidence," said Sue Osthoff, Director of the National Clearinghouse for the Defense of Battered Women, a Philadelphia-based organization that assists victims of abuse and trauma who have been charged with crimes related to their abuse.

Like many of the victims of abuse Sue assists, Terry was repeatedly victimized. For Terry, that abuse by older males in his life started when he was only six years old. Despite continuing to suffer sexual abuse for the next twelve years, Terry received no counseling or support to help him deal with the repeated violence he endured. In fact, some of the people who were supposed to help were the ones who actually preyed on him.

None of this information was presented to the jurors during Terry's sentencing; had it been, Terry would not be on death row. 

The public outcry for Terry's clemency is growing. A broad coalition of people has joined the jurors and victim's widow in asking that Terry's sentence be commuted from death to life. Those calling for Terry's life to be spared include a growing list of child advocates, victims' rights advocates, former prosecutors and judges, law professors, mental health professionals, and faith leaders across Pennsylvania.

Sue Osthoff is very familiar with stories like Terry's. She started this petition because she believes that if the jury had all of the evidence, they would not have sentenced Terry to death.

Join Sue in calling on Governor Corbett to spare Terry Williams' life for killing the man who raped him.

Thanks for being a change-maker,

- Emilia and the Change.org team

Dear Mr. Pricetag,

Thank you very much for your kind offer to send me buttloads of Mr. Anderson's loot, but sadly, I don't qualify for it, as my last name is not Anderson, it's Lovelace, as I inadvertently let slip in my last email to you.

Have you tried Sweden or one of those other Scandihoovian countries?  My understanding is that they have a lot of Andersons there.

Yours most cordually,
Matt Loveletter

Dear Matt,


Thank you for your email response concerning the inheritance of Late Mr. Anderson .  We urgently need to present you to become the Administrator to the above Inheritance Estate. Please note that I never said this person was your known relative, but that you were nominated for a simple reason; which is you bearing the same last Name. This would be done in accordance with the Inheritance Laws of United Kingdom by obtaining the Court validation paper as well as a Letter of Administration.

We have the responsibility to do this, without this process the inheritance would be taking over by the Crown Court and released to the Government coffers. As soon as we get further response of your acceptance to receive this sum, we will forward to you all the relevant papers and forms by email or fax because we hope to finalize everything within the shortest possible time with your full co-operation.

However, the same United Kingdom inheritance law prevents an Attorney, Solicitor or Law Firm from being a beneficiary of an Estate of any client; hence our reasons for contacting you since you bear the same last name. Therefore, in plain words we are nominating you to accept the responsibility of becoming the Administrator of the estate, which is, receiving the Inheritance Estate (24.5Million Pounds) for the purpose of distributing it between you and me on this ratio thus; 30% for you and 60% for me and the balance 10% will be used to pay back any expenses we might incur during the processing and transfer of the funds to your account.

 I am assuming that this is acceptable to you, so please confirm that and I would be forwarding in my next email what needs to be done.


I look forward to your prompt response.


Regards,

Mr. Robert Alan Price

[ItsAllAboutMeMan] Fwd: Samsung & Armstrong

 

Bob's usually good, but every time he gets orgasmic over Apple, I wonder how much stock he owns. 

He needs to watch this:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL7yD-0pqZg

It's not just their phones. It's everything Apple makes, over-rated to a rediculous degree by their cult-like followers.

Subject: Samsung & Armstrong
To: mattlove1@gmail.com



Just when we're convinced the legal system does not work...

I've been following the Tour de France ever since Greg LeMond emerged triumphant. This was not supposed to happen. Americans were always also-rans.

But it turned out LeMond was a genetic freak. That's what it takes to win in basketball as well as bike racing, if you're playing by the rules. Despite the success of Muggsy Bogues, you cannot compete in the NBA if you're of average height. And Muggsy didn't make it on sheer pluck alone, he could jump! I'm surprised no short person has sued the NBA, claiming they've been locked out of a career. That's the American way, suing to success.

But suits take money. And winning is rarely everything. Because oftentimes you can't collect.

But ever since O.J. it's been common knowledge that the government's lawyers are amateurs compared to the high-priced attorneys available on the outside. Hell, I winced watching that trial, because no one on the government's side realized trials are theatre. It's not only about the facts, but how you present those facts, whether you weave a coherent story. It's like being able to write a hit song but being unable to perform it. You'd better not book a gig. But the government has been booking gigs forever...and losing. Except for Rudy Giuliani and Eliot Spitzer. That's how they built their names and careers. By doing the impossible. Fighting power and winning. And we know their names because their success was so rare. Everybody else working for the home team is if not an incompetent also-ran, someone not quite good enough.

But they nailed Lance Armstrong. Not the government, they couldn't even lock up Roger Clemens. They're all show, and no go. And they gave up on Armstrong too. But the non-profit, non-governmental USADA (http://www.usada.org/about) got Lance, when no one else could.

He doped. There's no question of that. I could recite the evidence, but if you still believe he's innocent, you probably believe lowering taxes on the rich will balance the budget and a woman can prevent pregnancy by squinting and squeezing her legs.

But what Lance did not do was admit it. No one admits their mistakes anymore. Everybody's got to be perfect, all the time.

Hell, I knew Lance was guilty before he even started to race. Because I went to college with bike racers, back in the seventies. World class cross-country ski racers, every summer they went to Europe to compete in bicycle races. Were they planning to graduate and go pro? Of course not. Because all the winners were on dope!

You've got to be on dope to win.

That's what Lance should have said. In a crooked, illegal game, I played and won. He was king of the dopers! Instead, he keeps saying he's innocent like a kid in a locked house protesting over an empty plate that he didn't eat the cookies. We could have a turning point in the national discussion if only Lance would come clean, be a force for good. But Lance is all about image, like a bad "rock star" whose hits were written by committee and produced by Dr. Luke... They're afraid the facade will crumble.

And do you know despite wearing a yellow wristband, essentially none of the money donated to Livestrong goes to cancer research? (http://bit.ly/A8dl88) That's not their mission. They're about awareness... Are people truly clueless when it comes to cancer? And if the word needs to be spread, shouldn't Lance be forthright and honest? No, he employs subterfuge, the same way he won the Tour de France, he wants you to believe one thing while he does another.

As for the Samsung Galaxy products... If you don't think they're a rip-off of Apple gear, you're truly blind.

And this is about everything musicians rail about. Copyrights. Only in this case, it's called patents. Can someone steal with impunity?

Then again, patents don't last forever.

But can you ride the back of someone else's hard work and innovation to riches? Can someone copy your CD at no cost? If you don't think so, then you must come down on the side of Apple in this lawsuit, however much you hate the Cupertino company.

And in this case, it was the best against the best. And the judge was a hoot, she'd take no gruff, she didn't lose control of her courtroom. Hell upon seeing Apple's witness list, she asked the company's barristers if they were smoking crack!

And I don't want to get into a lengthy discussion of whether patent protection should exist, I'll just say there were rules. And Samsung broke them, just like Lance Armstrong.

And if the rules are bad, you lobby to change them.

But Lance is not part of the solution, he's truly part of the problem.

So what did we learn here?

1. Innovate or die. That's how Lance won all those trophies, by employing cutting edge doping technologies. And that's how Apple escaped the doldrums. If you're in a creative business, sleep with one eye open, never rest on your laurels, you're only as good as what you did today.

2. Hire the best legal help you can. Oftentimes, that's more important to success than whether you're innocent or guilty. Hell, look how long it took to get Lance!

3. Like in the westerns of yore, the bad guys win for a while, but lose in the long run. Choose your path. Brief success or long term struggle. Hell, Apple's been around in excess of thirty years. It took the company this long to get into this fight. As for Lance Armstrong, he worked long and hard for an athlete, but most athletes peak and are done way before they're forty, what are you going to do with the rest of your life? Kinda like those kid stars who end up robbing 7-11's, or those wearing blinders who believe retirement will never come and don't prepare for it.

4. Don't put your faith in the government or institutions, but in yourself. That's what all successful entrepreneurs have, a belief that they're right and the rules are meant to be bent. Now this is complicated:

a. Companies lobby for less regulation because they want to continue to rape and pillage and prosper. They don't care about the hoi polloi. If you restrict them, they don't go out of business, they just have a slightly harder time making tons of money. It's the government that looks out for the people. So when you're pro-corporation, you're against yourself, unless you're running or high up in said corporation.

b. That's the problem with sports. The bending of the rules. The reason we're fascinated with sports is because we believe it's the last bastion of honesty, a place where we can see all the angles, a fair fight. That's why we root out dopers. We don't really care who wins, it's just that we need faith in the system.

c. But my main point is if you think there's always somebody smarter than you, who knows better and more and is looking out for you...you're sorely mistaken. If you've been aggrieved, you've got to look for your own solutions.

5. The press is not as powerful as you think. There was a whole book written about Lance doping, years ago, but it was never translated from the French, the media building Lance Armstrong up was reluctant to tear him down. And these same reporters were so beholden to the Apple god, so star-struck and at the same time angry that technology is undermining their business, that they could never get the story straight. It's a big problem with reporters, they get the facts but miss the story. Winners understand the underpinnings, the strategy... Not only is government one step behind, but the media too.

It's hard to believe we're in a brand new era when the Supreme Court hands Bush II the Presidency and Justice Roberts employs fallacious logic to uphold Obamacare, but maybe the tide is turning. Maybe the real America is on a comeback.

And the real America is not solely blood and guts and combat, but playing within the boundaries, the rules, and owning your actions. Hell, if you didn't do anything illegal Mitt Romney, release your tax returns. If you employed offshore accounts, let's put them in evidence, let's have a national discussion. And speaking of discussion, even the left wing patron saint Paul Krugman believes Medicare spending must be addressed, but nobody on the left will even entertain a discussion.

But ain't that America. Where we've got no faith in the institutions and we argue all day long, accomplishing little.

If you had faith in Lance Armstrong, you were duped. Plain and simple. Which is why people are still defending him, they don't want to have to upend their beliefs, rewrite history.

It turns out we can only have faith in Apple. Which is purely in search of excellence and puts forth a scorched earth policy defending itself. Apple is the hero in the westerns and John Lennon and all the icons that have withstood the test of time.

Because Steve Jobs did not worry about being liked. Because he fought 24/7 for what he thought was right, despite everybody else saying he was wrong.

I'm not sure where we go from here, but for one day, there's justice in the world.

P.S. I realize having faith in Apple contradicts #4 above, but that's the point. Our heroes have failed us so many times that we've become enamored of a corporation. Hell, Apple products are better than any hit record of the past decade. More innovation, more surprises and seamless quality. We used to have these elements in individuals. We need them to return.

Piledriver

I wrote on 50 90:

There is this construction site where they are driving piles, and I thought it would be cool if I could use the actual sound of a pile driver in a kind of Peter Gabriel Sledgehammer song - soulful and sexy (I put up a sexy picture on the soundcloud page). I think it actually came out sort of lugubrious, but maybe that will work for somebody.

Hey, Thanks Jasmine, it was great to hear from you. It's very exciting to me to receive praise from such a discriminating listener. I know you don't praise the work of all the guys.  Just some of the guys. I saw this on your soundcloud page. Nice.
