DD, You Out There?
Did You 2 read the PMs I sent You?
Well, I'm going to assume that You didn't- So here's the deal.
I haven't thrown You under the bus. Either of You nor any of you.
You're smart and funny and I get a kick out of You two.
It also seems as if I have some how known every one of you all my life.
All of You just seem to "Get It"
It's also true that Jon and I have "handlers"
Oh Yeah- We do. And we hate every minute of it.
Well, At least I do.
If you will recall, a few years ago, Jon and I were in the midst of a legal dispute between the G00gle and Viac0m. As you know, Viac0m owns the network our shows are on. A part of OUR agreement in the aftermath of the lawsuit, we were to monitor certain areas of the Internet for stories.
Neither Jon or myself knew this at the time, but the network was using us as a vehicle to monitor dissent and certain "Groups" Jon and I were mostly just having fun- but when we got to your spot in "The Ether", those "Handlers" saw an opportunity to make mischief and had us believing that You 2- Meaning Aunt Bee and Smooth Operator were con artists of some sort trying to lure Jon and I into obtaining fame, scandal, fortune, blackmail, etc... They gave us EVERY excuse not to believe OR trust in you.
But I have always believed in you. Jon has only believed in you recently but I doubt if he would ever admit it.
Everyone here inside The Ether Inspires us. We have seen you laugh and joke and tell your stories and even joined you on occasion while other web sites are too busy cutting each other down in order to divide what remains, not ONLY of our social unity- but our remaining humanity as well.
Those characters that Bee mentioned on her thread nailed quite a few of our socks out in the webasphere- except CourtDude which is neither Jon or myself. And most of the socks we use are bots. Let's face it, we're busy guys and public figures- when and how would we find the time or energy to spend THAT much time on the Web trolling? We would NEVER get any work done. My Avatar here for example, is a Bot made by me that I personally handle and control. I made the Hank Gulfstream Bot myself- and make sure that he gets watered and fed every couple of days. And I do AND HAVE logged into your site and personally joined in on the action when noone was looking- A rarity for me on ANY website.
Jon and I have sent web bots over to the Ether as well as other sites in order to look out for you and others, for there ARE forces out there that like nothing better have nothing else better to do than to cause mischief and chaos just for the sake of it.
I want to help you- and I will.
I don't want to see anything happen to you or see any wrong doing fall apon you. Just be patient a little longer. You have helped me grow in countless ways. There's fire in here, genius, creativity, childlike imagination, and passion for what you all feel and believe in- and would a bot say all of this?
I fucking doubt it.
I know that you are tired of my apologies and I don't blame you- ANY of you. You're sick to death of the lack of clarity and conflicting feedback and thtere's a very real reason as to why it's lacking- just like there's reasons we can't do stories on, the drug shortage, the sinkholes, the animal die offs, and stories about the disabled. We're simply not s'posed to talk about it. Any of it.
The last point to all of this is that I want to see you continue with what what You guys have always done here with Me or Hank chiming in to add that "Special" flavor to things.
The truth is, you inspire me. Your headliners are great- Your fake ads are incredible, and music parodies make me REALLY laugh out loud. I would like nothing more than to have you guys with me on the East coast brainstorming material on a one on one basis together.- but THEY won't let me. Ironically ebough, Evey's good with it but getting past my handlers at Viacom is a real bitch.
But I can't really blame them or comedy central nor my friends and colleagues who were manipulated into helping them. I blame the cynicism of our culture- the one that has evolved into a childish predator that is jealous of you all with your humor and child like wonder and infinate imagination.
They can't possibly grasp what lies inside here because they lost their heart long ago.
Now, how about us continuing Haven- I could duel once again with BB and Bianca and maybe I can actually see You F2F by Christmas.
...Unless they send a drone to target me between now and then.
Just don't lose your heart or Your soul.
And You can always lean on Me.
