THE EXPLORE GROUP- HAVE REQUESTED SOME PAPERWORK- ON WHICH I AM WORKING
.
IT IS SUPPOSED TO INCLUDE A BIO OF THE CEO ( THAT'S ME)
LORD LOVE A DUCK !
SO I HAVE WRITTEN ONE BIO THIS MORNING- ACTUALLY I HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT 4 OF
THEM-- AND NONE COME OUT LOOKING LIKE BIOGRAPHIES I HAVE SEEN WRITTEN BY FANCY
PEOPLE WITH LETTERS AFTER THIER NAMES. .
THE PROBLEM IS
I DO HAVE SOME SIGNIFICANT EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND-- ASSUMING THAT IS TH E
CASE HOW DO I THEN BECOME TH E NATIONAL EXPERT ON PICKING UP POO WITH 2 PIECES
OF CEREAL BOXES??
MY FATHER WHO PAID FOR MY EDUCATION -- IS PROBABLY TURNING OVER IN HIS
GRAVE.
THEN I GO DOWN THE ROAD OF " WELL I DO HAVE SOME WELL EDUCATED FRIENDS
AND A COUPLE RELATIVES WITH LETTERS AFTER THEIR NAMES..."
BUT THAT JUST FILLS UP THE PAGES AND I CAN NOT ACTUALYL SEE ANYBODY
READING THAT STUFF;
HOW DO I EXPLAIN THAT MY REAL EDUCATION INVOLVES GETTING A DOG TO WILLINGLY
CLIMB UP A TREE AND STAND THERE WHILE WE TAKE HER PHOTOGRAPH.???.
*************
MANY TIMES I HAVE SAID IF YOU GET A CHOICE BETWEEN SMART OR LUCKY--- TAKE
;LUCKY
**************
I REEMEMBER-.....
I USED TO RUN THE NORTHERN SECTION OF THE WANT AD- A WEEKLY CLASSIFIED
MAGAZINE- AND I RAN IT - RATHER LOOSELY-- FROM HOME DURING THE SAME TIME I WAS
CHASING PIGS DOWN STORROW DRIVE AS ANIMAL EPISODES-- SAME 30 YEARS.. AT ANY
RATE
TO UNDERSTAND WHAT I WAS RUNNING , BEING AN OLD MATH TYPE... I HAD - FOR MY
OWN USE - DEVISED A COMPUTER PROGRAM WHICH WOULD ANALYZE MY WANT AD OPERATION
ON ONE SHEET OF [PAPER--
MAINLY ON ONE SHEET BECAUSE BY THE TIME I TURNED OVER A PAGE I HAD
FORGOTTEN WHAT WAS ON THE FIRST PAGE --MY MEMORY WAS HISTORIC THEN TOO
SO I WENT TO A MEETING WITH TH E COMPANY PRESIDENT-- WITH ME WAS A GUY IN
A BLUE SUIT ETC- THERE WIHT HIS REPORT OF THE OTHER 1/2 THE COMPANY.. IT WAS
1/2 INCH THICK-- THE KIND OF ACCORDIAN PAPER WITH ALL TH E HOLES - ( YOU YOUNG
FOLK MAY NOT REMEMBER)--HE HAD A BIG GOOD LOOKING WAD OF PAPER WHICH HE LIFTED
OUT OF HIS BLACK BREIFCASE.-- I HAD ONE SHEET THAT I HAD TRANSPORTED BY FOLDING
IN MY BACK POCKET.
HERE COMES TH E IMPORTANT (LUCKY) PART...
I TOOK ONE LOOK AT HIS 1/2" THICK REPORT AND SAID
"IT IS WRONG. I CAN NOT TELLYOU WHY IT IS WRONG.. BUT I WILL BET MY $2 ON
IT IS WRONG"
THE SMALL GROUP LOOKED AT HIS POLISHED SHOES- AND MY BARN SNEAKERS--AND
RAISED THEIR NOSES ( PROBABLY WITH GOOD REASON)
THE BOOK SOLD FOR 86 CENTS- AND HIS TOTAL SALES MONEY ENDED UP IN AN ODD
NUMBER.
AND THAT IS THE REASON I HAVE A BARN AND INDOOR ARENA BECAUSE THEY GAVE THE
ENTIRE ACCOUNTING OVER TO ME-- TO BE DONE AT HOME ( THE BARN SNEAKERS PROBABLY
CAUSED THAT)
LUCKY? YOU BET .
***********
SO NOW I HAVE ALL THESE NUMBERS TO MAKE MATCH.. THEY ARE NOT BAD.. I HAVE
ROUNDED TO THE DOLLAR-- AND HAVE A $44 DIFFERENCE WITH A HANDLE OF ABOUT
$200,000
NOW EXPLORE WANTS AN OFFICIAL AUDIT-- WE DO HAVE AN ACCOUNTANT WHO WAVES
HIS HAND OVER TH E BOOKS-- BUT IT TURNS OUT THERE IS AN OFFICIAL PERMIT YOU
MUST HAVE TO BE ABLE TO AUDIT A 501 C3 CHARITY.. HIS ACCOUNTING COMPny does
not hAVE THAT= BUT HE CAN RECOMMENT SOMEONE WHO DOES-- AND CHARGES
ALOT...
SO ALL OF YOU ... IS THERE ANYONE IN THIS CROWD WITH THAT SPECIAL CPA
LICNSE WHO CAN TRIP LIGHTLY OVER THE $200000 AND NOT HAVE A HEART ATTACK OVER
$44?????
THAT IS THE CALL OF THE DAY
ALONG WITH ANALYZING OLIVES EVERY PHART.
