You're talking about cars now???? I'm willing to bet that Elon Musk will
be the next John Deloren
when people find out the Tesla car is drainging his money. He already
sold another billion in Tesla shares
https://www.freep.com/story/money/business/michigan/2021/11/20/elon-musk-sells-tesla-shares-pay-taxes-stock-options/8651733002/

He needs money just like John Deloren did. 
You are going to wake up soon and there won't be any Tesla.
soon..
He cannot sell cars if he doesn't have money to make cars.
He might as well sell cocaine.
'Stay away from his bitcoin advise.' if he sez buy, then sell.

You need to understand the REAL world of "a boatload of competing publishers" who are trying to get
their educational products into the hands of teachers and students.

If I'm a competing publisher wani9nt to get my educational products into the hands of professors, teachers and student...
I would simply *bribe* the proffesors and teachers to use ONLY my books.
You have to corrupt the proffesors and teachers on a daily basics.
All my efforts will be on corrupting the proffesors and teachers.
That creates a wall blocking my competitors from reaching proffesors and teachers.
My proffesors and teachers. I owned them. I paid for it.
They belong to me.
And they will continue buying from me every year or I will turn them in for excepting bribes.
Fuck the students. I'l raise the fucking prices on them...because I CAN.
I got a monopoly.

That's how it's done.

But you Odd don't live in a real world. You probably will try to sell textbooks directly to students.

But my textbooks are 'required' reading, yours are not.

LOL. Well, I guess I bought my textbooks for my classes the wrong way. I
usually bought a book other than what was suggested, and just borrowed the
suggested book to look up homework assignment.

A fairly impressive resume! Besides his professional
accomplishments, I'm quite struck by his long-term
volunteer work.

Paul Draper is a skinny white guy around the age of in his 40's...maybe
39... or late 30's.


He's gotta be able to pick up a hammar.

Wait a minute! You're 42, almost the same age than the other asshole, Dono.

It means that: You are fat or you're not Caucasian.  Are you an Spanish or Asian descendant?

Because it can explain a lot, specially if your roots are Korean.

It fits better with your personality traits. Also if you are fat or bald or short.

I put all of this together: You are a 42 y.o. fat, bold Korean descendant (short comes with the package).

I’m curious how you came up with that age number. 

I’m also curious WHY you felt it worthwhile to come up with that age
number.

Well, fat and skinny do not form an exhaustive set of possibilities, does
it? (You haven’t asked me how much I bench.)

Again, Caucasian, Asian, Hispanic does not map over the whole ethnicity
space.

Are you black, then? There are not so many general types of ethnicity, because I discard that you aren't Indian descendant.

As far as I know, Indian jews are very few and I don't believe that your family came from a tribe at Papua New Guinea or are Eskimo.

Noo, are you an Skimo? I'd never would think that. The case of being space alien is left exclusively to Dono, the reptilian lifeform.

Jiminy, Richard, I’ll just let this sit there and outgas for a while. Maybe

But I drop the topic, because Bodkin got mad.

Any dart did hit his leg and now he's limping? We'll never know (for the rest of the day/week).

But he could give me a hint: What colors are your eyes, Bodkin?

4 and 2 is 6...65????

how can a person be a carpenter at 65???? 

and most carpenters don't even have a high school diploma...


something not adding up here.

BINGO, right?  I knew that number 65 would get your attention.

"Where on earth did you get 65?"

What you are really asking is is how did I get that number 65?

So that you can find it on the Internet and take it down.

You don't want me to answer that question here, do you?

That would mean 1956.

September.

I guess you didn't get this quote:

It simply is a quote from Linda Goodman Sun Signs: The Virgo Man

September. Virgo.

You tripped up on this thread..
you made *too much* effort correcting a
misspelling of the word "hardwood" to "heartwood".

You were too busy 'covering up' your cover.


and my little funny math:
--
wait a minute...how much is 41 + 24? 4 and 1 is 5

4 and 2 is 6...65????
--

was just a trick to see what your response would be
to seeing that number..65.

AND IT WORKED!

"Where on earth did you get 65?"



BINGO!


i watch a lot of Colombo tv shows
like when he put the stolen jewelry under his
own mattress.

"confused"???? What confusion is there?


41 + 24 = 65
41 plus 24 equals 65

No confusion there...

I even checked with a calculator, I got the same answer 65.


So, ...why did you ask "Where on earth did you get 65?"????

Does the number 65 have any special meaning to you?
