A Man Who Can Make Things Happen

June 7th, 2009

Dear Craig:

That’s what I’m looking for . . . either a man who can make things happen, or Peace.

You might logically ask, why am I not posting this notice on your world-renowned Craigslist?  And I would welcome the question.  

I am not posting this notice on your iconic Craigslist because I don’t “just” hope to identify a Partner, I mean to have a word with Craig Newmark of Craigslist.  Having been carefully and steadily observing the workings of American commerce, governance and justice these past several years, I apprehend that the best way to gain and hold the attention “People Who Count” is to address them by Open Letter.The prospects of public scorn, criminal offense and/or trading on reputations seem substantially more apt to inspire recipients of letters to sit up and take notice than any degree of seriousness relayed discreetly.  

Intuitively, if things are going swimmingly for people by doing things the way they’re doing them, why would they do them any differently?  What, shy of market force or old-fashioned Force, would motivate people to change what is, for them, a good thing?  Heartfelt correspondence from strangers?  Their own consciences?   

Not usually, if history is a guide.

Lest I forget to intertwine having a word with you and partner hunting . . . SWF, 53, casts about the Prepared crowd for a mate.  If it’s Peace we’re having, Prepared and Spiritual will do — the more relaxed, the better.  If we’re making things happen, it’s a Good Guy Bad Ass I’m wanting — a Spiritual Warrior.

Being personally and completely inexperienced with Revolution, I simply cannot tell whether the People will finally rebel against appalling ineptitude, rapacious taxation, flagrant corruption and capricious authoritarianism. Really, I never expected to “find myself” in this predicament.   

Spin to the left
spin to the right
stand up, sit down
submit or take flight?
