Attached letter sent today to the following:

David Jones
Susan Walden
Maureen Shirvill
Alex Tate
Brian Turner
Roger Stringer
Noel Radcliffe
Lyn Francis

Please note there are only eight as David had signed the letter twice and Muriel and Gwen no longer volunteer at Chester.

Wendy and I met with Malcolm this morning and are now writing up our notes and confering - will confirm our decision in due course.

I spent the afternoon in the Chester bureau which was very interesting and enjoyable - it certainly helped inform my investigation into these issues.

Hopefully that is it until next Weds - I will prepare a brief summary and recommendations for the trustee only meeting to kick us off,

Thanks,
Jon

Look, someone signed me up for an Indian (dot, not feather) mailing list. WTF? I don't care if this guy is going to India. Unless he is giving me part of the $2M he says he has to distribute to charity. I could use a donation like that about now.

Folks,

Today July 21, 2009 around 10:34 I had a call from Delhi. I returned the call around 10:40 and conditionally accepted a position in HP with a final acceptance in the first week of September 2009. The assignment is a great challenge. Try developing 15,000 acres!

CU has been good but I have learned nothing over the year and half I have been here. In the next 6 months I will have completed all that I have to offer and structure the manner in which the $2M grant will be spent. So, in the first quarter of 2010 I will relocate.

Between now and the first quarter of 2010, I will complete the difficult task of obtaining State permits for the Berkeley Heights property. I may have time to execute the conditions of the permit. Options there after are to build and rent or sell. Unless I hear of any serious interest from any one of you, I will decide on whatevr suits me.

Please plan accordingly and let me know if you need anything done while I am here.

7/14/2009 - Someone Found A Hotel

One of my favorite kinds of messages in one where they don't provide a link to what they are referring to in the message. I think I found the hotel by searching Google. Overpriced, over fancy. How much time are you really going to spend in the hotel room, especially in a place like San Francisco? In fact, I was recently there, and stayed in a very nice Sheraton Hotel in the Fisherman's Warf district, it was great. I replied back to them, recommending this hotel.

6/23/2009 - Party Like I'm Someone Else

Ok, I've been invited to a birthday party for a one year old, going on the FROM e-mail address, it is somewhere in Stanford, CT. Don't live anywhere near there, don't know anyone who lives there. This e-mail also has one of those entertaining disclaimers at the bottom. Maybe someone shouldn't be using their office e-mail account to send out this type of correspondance. I'll also point out how inconsiderate it is to wait this long before sending an invitation to a party. Maybe they are just fishing for gifts.

Propositions May Have Great Affect on CSU!

Several important propositions will be before California voters during a special election on May 19th. Propositions 1A – 1E seek to stabilize California's current financial crisis and to implement some long-term budget reform.

During their last meeting the CSU Board of Trustees voted to endorse Proposition 1A – 1E because of the direct impact it will have on SDSU if they fail to pass. Most of the measures provide new revenues to help balance the state’s General Fund budget over the next several years. This directly impacts the CSU as two-thirds of its budget comes from the state General Fund.

· Get Educated on the pros and cons of Propositions 1A-1E and how they will impact you and the future of the CSU!· Join the campaign and help educate others on the impact of 1A - 1E!· Tell a Friend about what these Propositions means to California and its colleges!
· Get Registered and make sure you are prepared to vote on May 19th!

One night, when confined in a hospital, he was approached by an alcoholic who had known a spiritual experience. Our friend's gorge rose as he bitterly cried out: "If there is a God, He certainly hasn't done anything for me!" But later, alone in his room, he asked himself this question: "Is it possible that all the religious people I have known are wrong?"
Alcoholics Anonymous Page 56 Thumbing through my Big Book I had a note that say's "We never put ourselves in the position to be helped" I still seem to have an outline as to how I think God should help me, but doesn't that limit what God can /will do??

From yesterday:

I have always believed in God and to this day cannot understand how a person could believe otherwise. That is their life to live however. My error was that I thought God was simply the Creator that I had to only think about after death. I did not rely on God or give God much daily thought other than that I would have to face Him at death for judgment. I was so full of myself and full of denial for my actions that I thought I was acting just fine and wouldn’t have to worry much about that meeting.

1-22-2209 - Who is Frank Brennan?

Ok, I started getting e-mails from a Frank Brennan late last year. I thought they were from my cousin that lives in Costa Rica. But this morning, I started checking them out. Not my cousin, in fact, I have no idea who this person is at all. But the cool part is that they are sending me very raunchy jokes, and pictures of children. Nice combination. Check this out...

Here is the first joke he sent me 12-18-2008:

Frank & Val Brennan

Ph. 03 52821439

Mob. 0418 340 492

A very pretty young speech therapist was getting nowhere with her
Stammerers Action group. She had tried every technique in the book without
the slightest success.

Finally, thoroughly exasperated, she said 'If any of you can tell
me the name of the town where you were born, without stuttering, I will
have wild and passionate sex with you until your muscles ache and your eyes
water.

So, who wants to go first?'

The Englishman piped up. 'B-b-b-b-b-b-b-irmingham', he said.

'That's no use, Trevor' said the speech therapist, 'Who's next ?'

The Scotsman raised his hand and blurted out 'P-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-aisley'.

'That's no better. There'll be no sex for you, I'm afraid, Hamish.

How about you, Paddy ?'

The Irishman took a deep breath and eventually blurted out ' London '.

'Brilliant, Paddy' said the speech therapist and immediately set about
living up to her promise.

After 15 minutes of exceptionally steamy sex, the couple paused for
breath and Paddy said .....................'-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-erry'

They have been sending me a variety of crap and links like the above joke, then a picture of a little girl, saying she was good at Christmas:

Subject: Brennan's Beef - Graeme Smith is not a martyr

Eamonn Brennan will be writing for himself throughout the year on contentious issues in sport in a column entitled "Brennan's Beef".

Peter Roebuck and co might be singing his praises but Graeme Smith's decision to bat yesterday evening with a broken hand was an act of self gratification personified (something Roebuck is mighty familiar with). Forget the media plaudits for bravery. Smith's actions may well have cost his side the return bout scheduled to commence proceedings in South Africa on February 26.

Deservedly named player of the series after some commanding batting performances, Smith's decision to bat yesterday on a (at best) dodgy SCG wicket was perplexing to say the least. Smith travelled to Sydney as the toast of South Africa after becoming the first South African to lead his side to a test series win on Australian soil. It appears that the acclaim he has received has gone to his head. Why would he bat yesterday on an intrepid wicket, with the series wrapped up and his reputation at an all time high? Why would he risk further injury to a badly broken hand and a chronically injured elbow? Why? Pure and unadulterated self indulgence.

Don't feed me this hogwash about inspired leadership. 24 hours prior Smith had received injections to his hand and was warned that he needed to rest to ensure recovery in time to host the forthcoming series. What sort of inspired leader is he if he is sitting in the stands, wearing civvies, while his side take to the field to battle for the acclaim of the number 1 test nation in the world? Who is going to galvanise the South African top order? It will hardly be Neil McKenzie. Aside from having a supermodel as a sister and a supermodel for a wife, this man is badly out of form and the Australians have his measure. It could be argued however, with a supermodel as a wife, he is in fact in career best form.

Nor will it be Kallis. Predicted (wrongly as it turns out, surprise surprise) by Roebuck as the man to carry South Africa to a draw or win in this game, Kallis fell for a miserly four runs. Perhaps his concentration wasn't what it should have been after loading up on the breakfast buffet at the team hotel that morning. Kallis is however hope for fat men everywhere. Aside from that prick Stuart Dew, and the retired blond leg spinner from Black Rock, no other fat man in the world of sport can inspire so many. Getting out to a red headed debutant (admittedly a Victorian) however undid a lot of his good eating, I mean work . I've not seen Mrs Kallis so I can't comment on whether his chick pulling exploits can also inspire fat men around the globe. In order for him to be at his best in South Africa, he will need to be admitted to a weight loss facility. Should Smith's injury restrict his aerobic fitness (and lets be honest, he is hardly a graduate of the Donna Aston academy) he may well need to join him.

Ashwel Prince, the vice-captain of the side, didn't play in this series due to injury. How will he ever hold his head high in public after Smith's heroics upon rising from his death bed? Psychologically he will be exposed. Being South African however, he can turn to former team mate Darryl Cullinan who has invested heavily in mental health services in South Africa following years of torment at the hands of one Shane Keith Warne. A discount might be on offer. Perhaps Kevin Pieterson could be the man for the job. Oh hang on, he's English now apparently. And besides he as an ego even bigger than Smith. If that is at all possible.

As evidenced by the above, Smith's recovery would want to be swift. He faces a battle not only for fitness however but also to keep an ever expanding head in check. After devouring (alongside the breakfast buffet) the 712 articles in today's press on his brave exploits (cue Roebuck and "brave warrior" - please!) he may well need assistance to get his head (and waistline) through the hotel lobby's exit. If he has delayed his recovery (as may well be the case according to the doctor who administered the injections) and is unable to take the field circa late February, his "brave" exploits will have been in vain. Fortunately for him, he can take solace in his supermodel wife. Further hope for fat men everywhere.

Hi Michael,

We just spoke on the phone about the possibility of some veterans from the war in Iraq coming into my classroom after the holidays. I am a 9th grade English teacher at the Urban Assembly Media HS, which is located in the Martin Luther King Educational Campus on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. My students have been reading a book, Sunrise Over Fallujah, about young man from Harlem who enlists in the army and ends up in Iraq. Giving them the opportunity to speak with someone who has been there would be a powerful experience for them, and I look forward to hearing from you. Please let me know if you have any questions or need any more information about what I am looking for.

Enjoy your holidays. I look forward to hearing from you.

10-26-2008 - I'm Politically Active!

Got this in the mail tonight, guess I'm going to have to vote early and often with all the campaigns I've signed up for across the country.

Dear Friends,

Thanks to your support, we are a significant, viable force in the U S Senate Race in Minnesota. While the poll numbers of Coleman and Franken fluctuate wildly, our numbers steadily improve, having risen to the 20% range in spite of name recognition of only 60%. We are now on the threshold of the tipping point where voters move beyond “Can he win” to “With my vote, he will win!” I need your help to push us over that tipping point. The simple political fact is that we need to reach voters who have not heard of me yet. In every public appearance I make, I meet many people who did not know I was in the race and are relieved to find someone to vote for. We need to reach these people this week and the only way to do so is on television. My good friend Bill Hillsman who worked with me on the Kinky Friedman campaign is creating a breakthrough television ad campaign for the last week of this election. Many of you will recall that Bill created the famous ads which pushed Paul Wellstone over the top in 1990 and Jesse Ventura in 1998. I need your help to raise $65,000 by 6:00 pm Tuesday to produce and run this ad to a full statewide audience. The good news is that we’ve already raised $25,000 of this, but you are the critical link to help us get the rest of the way there. If you haven’t had the chance to donate yet, now is the time to make a financial contribution. If you are in a position to give more, please do so today (and give just enough that it hurts a little). Most importantly, grab a few of your friends and let them know that they can make the difference in this race. For the first time in two generations, we can send a message to end the partisanship and paralysis of the two-party system in Washington. Please join me now to make this happen!

So, what the hell, I'm game. I went to the Papa John's website and reset the password and logged into the account, here is what I found out about myself:




Ok, so my base info:



Michael Brennan
4760 Olive Branch Road, Apartment 1608
Orlando, Florida 32811-7398


Home Phone 407-373-3799


So, then I logged out, I want to see just how big an idiot this guy has to be to use an e-mail address that is not his when he signs up. Started to create a new account. Look at the screen capture below, you have to input your e-mail address, then enter it again to confirm. This rules out a typo for this idiot.



Finally, I filed a complaint about the order with Papa Johns. Maybe I can get a free pizza or something. I also checked out what he ordered, he got a "White Pizza" (alfredo sauce) with Bacon. Sounds horrible, this must be my gay twin from Florida.

10-22-2008 - Please Stop

After I responded to the mail in the last post, with pretty much the text under their message, I sent one more message to FBLA. Seems I was getting some bouncebacks from their mailing list, including my bad address, they had a 19% error rate. I told them that this was impressive.

When I got up this morning, I had this message in my inbox, guess they finally got the point:

subject Please Stop

Michael,

This is Ben, the president of the BHS FBLA chapter. I would first like to appologize for accidently sending you e-mails that were clearly not meant for you. I misread what someone wrote on the information sheet that I passed around during the first meeting which caused me to end up sending you an e-mail instead of the person who wrote their name and e-mail on the sheet. I would also like to ask you to please stop sending unecessarily rude e-mails to either me, Mrs. Burnard (our teacher advisor), or anyone else in FBLA. You have made your point and I have fixed the problem, so now you should no longer be recieving anymore unwanted e-mails from me or anyone else in FBLA after this e-mail. Thank you very much for understanding.

Sincerely,
Ben

So, while I will cease mailing them, if they have really taken me off the list. However, I'm still concerned that our Future Business Leaders (of America) is being led by someone who spells Mikey M I C H A E L. Not good news for the future.

10-21-2008 - I need a ride...

Ok, somehow I am still involved in the Bellevue High School FLBA. (Future Business Leaders of America)

Evidently I depend on other people for rides, as this e-mail indicates:

from Alex Mennella amennella14@comcast.net

Mikey,

I will be able to give you a ride I live in Spirit Lake, Iowa and your not that far out of the way. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning for thursdays meeting in Bellevue.

-Alex

So, I have to ask what kind of idiot spells Mikey M I C H A E L in their e-mail address? And what kind of brain damage does it take to keep giving it out as his own? And why do I know someone who uses such poor grammar? "your not that far out of the way." How about "you're" instead, Alex?

Future leader of what business?

10-19-2008 - I didn't vote for you...

Got this in the mail. Anyone out there have any idea WTF "FBLA" might be? Females Brushing Lesbian Aerola? Fat Bald Ladies Attacking? I'm at a loss...

From: bellevuefbla@yahoo.com

Hello Everyone,

This is Ben Morgan, your FBLA president this year. I would like to first thank everyone who showed up to elections on Thursday. And with that here are you FBLA officers for this school year:

President: Ben Morgan

Vice President: Yun Chen

Secretary: Lanny Chung

Treasurer: Kate Kang

Parliamentarian: Nikolai Zapertov

Public Relations Officers: Dylan Hatch, Crystal Imankhan, David Lee

Once again, thanks to everyone who showed up. As for our next meeting, that is still to be determined. I will send out an e-mail as soon as we decide when our next meeting is going to be held.

10-18-2008 - I hang out with hippies...

This photo came from James Brennan. He didn't bother to write anything with the photo, so I don't know for sure if this is James, or a friend of James, or what he thinks I look like. Just for fun, I sent him back a random photo of myself.

10-15-2008 - I've hired a tax barrister...

Got this letter in my e-mail today...

Dear Martin,

I have just realised, after finding my note of telephone conversation hidden under a pile of papers, that I have not replied to your phone call of some time ago for which I apologise.

Answering the points raised the answers are as follows:

Personal tax allowances for children

All of a child’s income is chargeable on the child and he or she has full entitlement to personal allowances and reliefs. In most cases only the personal allowances will be available. Returns and claims may be made by a child in respect of income within his control but otherwise these are the responsibility of his parent or guardian who is also liable for payment of any tax in default of payment by the child.

Dependent Relative Relief

Dependent relative relief is not available after 5th April 1988 unless the residence was acquired before that date and the following conditions were met by that date:

the dependant relative must occupy the dwelling house rent free and without any other consideration,

Only one dependent’s dwelling house can qualify at any one time,

A husband and wife can claim for only one such dwelling house between them,

The dwelling house must be the sole residence of the dependent relative, and

The dwelling house must have been acquired before 6th April 1988 and the conditions above fulfilled in relation to a dependent relative before that date.

From the information that you advised to me being that the property was purchased in 1987 and the dependent relative lived in it as their sole residence then the property would qualify for the relief so long as all the other conditions mentioned above were met. If this was the situation then the profit of £200,000 (sale proceeds of £270,000 less purchase price £70,000) would not be taxable and be treated as similar to the position of a principal private residence.

Inheritance tax

The rules on Inheritance tax and the availability to give away assets in ones lifetime are that each individual has a tax free amount of £312,000 before Inheritance tax commences that usually applies at the time of death. However lifetime gifts are allowable and no inheritance tax will be chargeable on those gifts if the donor survives seven years after the gift was made. If the donor dies within the seven years then a percentage of the full charge will be made as follows:

0 – 3 years 100%
3 – 4 years 80%
4 – 5 years 60%
5 – 6 years 40%
6 – 7 years 20%

Once the seven years has elapsed then the overall allowance of £312,000 is reinstated.

I trust that this answers the questions raised and if you need further clarification do not hesitate in contacting me.

Yours sincerely,

Alan Patmore

i never send shit out-but this is soo friggin funny

WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD

BARACK OBAMA:
The chicken crossed the road because it was time for a CHANGE! The chicken wanted CHANGE!

JOHN MC CAIN:
My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road.

HILLARY CLINTON:
When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to cross the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure — right from Day One! — that every chicken in this country gets the chance it deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn’t about me…….

DR. PHIL:
The problem we have here is that this chicken won’t realize that he must first deal with the problem on ‘THIS’ side of the road before it goes after the problem on the ‘OTHER SIDE’ of the road. What we need to do is help him realize how stupid he’s acting by not taking on his ‘CURRENT’ problems before adding ‘NEW’ problems.

OPRAH:
Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he wants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I’m going to give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and not live his life like the rest of the chickens.

GEORGE W. BUSH:
We don’t really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road, or not. The chicken is either against us, or for us. There is no middle ground here.

COLIN POWELL:
Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road…

ANDERSON COOPER - CNN:
We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been allowed to have access to the other side of the road.

JOHN KERRY:
Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now against it! It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about the chicken’s intentions. I am not for it now, and will remain against it.

NANCY GRACE:
That chicken crossed the road because he’s GUILTY! You can see it in his eyes and the way he walks.

PAT BUCHANAN:
To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.

MARTHA STEWART:
No one called me to warn me which way that chicken was going. I had a standing order at the Farmer’s Market to sell my eggs when the price dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insider information.

DR SEUSS:
Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I’ve not been told.

ERNEST HEMINGWAY:
To die in the rain. Alone.

JERRY FALWELL:
Because the chicken was gay! Can’t you people see the plain truth? That’s why they call it the ‘other side.’ Yes, my friends, that chicken is gay. And if you eat that chicken, you will become gay too. I say we boycott all chickens until we sort out this abomination that the liberal media white washes with seemingly harmless phrases like ‘the other side’. That chicken should not be crossing the road. It’s as plain and as simple as that.

GRANDPA:
In my day we didn’t ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.

BARBARA WALTERS:
Isn’t that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the chicken tell, for the first time, the heart warming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish its life long dream of crossing the road.

ARISTOTLE:
It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.

JOHN LENNON:
Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together, in peace.

BILL GATES:
I have just released eChicken2007, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your check book. Internet Explorer is an integral part of the Chicken. This new platform is much more stable and will never cra…#@&&^(C% ……… reboot.

ALBERT EINSTEIN:
Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken?

BILL CLINTON:
I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What is your definition of chicken?

AL GORE:
I invented the chicken!

COLONEL SANDERS:
Did I miss one?

DICK CHENEY:
Where’s my gun?

AL SHARPTON:
Why are all the chickens white? We need some black chickens!
