Over the last few years I've come to learn something about myself. I'm fierce.

I'm fiercely stubborn - I'm fierce in will - I don't give up easy - I'm not afraid to say I'm sorry - and I "play to win" - whatever that means.

I'm glad I got this place here at Substack and that they essentially "offer it up for free" for somebody like myself who needs an outlet to express thoughts.

In goodwill, I'm an active participant here and I am a "paid subscriber" to almost all the places I read.

I don't want any payment for what I present and share here - I appreciate that Substack has created an environment where this is possible.

Now - I'm biased cause we all are cause it is part of what it means to be human, but regardless of that many months ago an offer was presented - "do you want to invest in the idea of Substack" - I thought to myself - hell yeah - why not....so I invested almost up to 90% of my limit being I'm not certified and such (about $2000). I really need to find out where that investment stands and I will, but let me say - I'm fond of Substack and I'm happy I have a place to share ideas and learn ideas from others. Moreover, my investment amount is actually less than what I have willingly contributed to others sharing here on Substack - seriously.

Now you know even more about me and I'm going to "pin" this post to replace the other which has been released.....

ps - I think 89 is the answer to the hexagon puzzle informed by the shapes above - but I still need to double-check....

pss - definition #3 please in interpretation - https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fierce - just in case they change the numbers it reads as follows: "furiously active or determined"

You know there are some folks out there think they can show up out of nowhere and try to change the ambience of a place....it saddens me when this occurs, but I give them no heed and I'm not sure sometimes what to do next when harm comes out of nowhere unexpected, but at the end of the day what matters is some of us have principle and others evidently do not and some of us feel compelled to push our principle upon others proselytizing and others of us do not. So I'd like to think I'm in the camp of those with principle who do not have any intent to proselytize, but others seem intent on causing harm and at the end of the day the best ideas will prevail - will they not?

It sort of pisses me off somebody has "spoiled" this post in a way by tricking me with supposed intent when it seems all they were trying to do was get me to open up....that sort of thing has a way of curling up and forming into a snake that will strike unexpectedly and I'm just saying I am very upset with j malzone and the games he played with me here on a post "About Me" - does that entity not know that in these times of high flux that spells nothing good for business? I just don't know....I don't know about that, but my heart is heavy with it.

It appears "j malzone" has changed name to "John Hawk" - now that is telling - and really if I could talk to such entity face-to-face I would say - don't bullshit a Ranger from the forest detects bullshit a MILE away - j malzone and John Hawk name changer effer - I would say to said entity thinks they be smarter than the goyim - honey gets the fly!

Star Trek. The one about the Horta. I've always loved that one.

We didn't start the fire, but we've tried to fight it. Although, it doesn't seem like we've done much good.

Well, the problem must be we don't have Spock around any more to do his mind melding thing I reckon?

With that said at the end of the day, nobody can blame that silicon momma for caring about her babies and thank goodness for Spock and his "mind melding" abilities is what I think.

We have watched almost all the Star Trek episodes and there were moments were I said it makes no sense to watch anymore, but I'm glad I deferred to my lovely wife and I've enjoyed watching these episodes and this episode about a momma taking care of her babies is also one of my favorites.

So, this is a hunch, but I'm pretty sure Bandit you are out of Wichita and you and I if not direct have interacted before I started this posting and if you want my opinion, some of the prancers in Wichita really get on my nerves and that includes both the Koch brothers or at least the one still alive I reckon....I could go on for a long time, but I reckon I won't for the time being but if you don't respond and give me some evidence you must know how imagination can run wild!

Ask any momma!

ha, ha.

Hey Bandit - a lot has happened since this post happened and I want to know from you direct what you think. If you share that with me direct here I will tell you who you represent in my mind even if I know you are not that which you represent in my mind, but minds must have representations for those things they cannot be near physically must they not if one is to interact honestly with another - I'll give you a clue - it has something to do with Wichita.

Did you change your name?

I can prove you have - how does one do that on Substack?

Hard way or easy way?

The hard way is to make it for yourself - but it helps if you have friends and family to do that.

The easy way is to send payment for the powder - what you willing to pay?

ha, ha.

Welcome here on the story "About Me"...

what's 10oz worth?

Expand full comment
Buffalo_Ken's avatar

I have no idea....ha, ha.

Thing is if I ran the analytics on it I suspect the capsaicin content is off the charts. That must be worth something and I think I only made about 13 oz total (ounce as in the measurement used for volume or is it mass?) and so 10 oz given the level of effort that went into this - I'd say maybe $4000 per current fiscal realities, but if you want to pay in silver coin, a big discount is offered. Fact of the matter is I'm not willing to sell that much of the product cause I need to better understand what it is I have cooked up here and it was all in good chemical engineering cheer that it was made....the hesitancy mainly stems from the fact that I don't know if the supply of these peppers is sustainable, but I intend on growing some of my own in the future and maybe, just maybe this is a business in the making?

You know Ford realized that if production levels are increased that efficiencies can be achieved, but seems Ford lost touch with the workers and me....I'm just a peasant trying to get by but I can't abide so much has been happening lately, but I trade fair and serious business is what is called for - so serious inquiries only please.

..I want to try it...been looking for something like this...1/2 ounce?

Bottom line j malzone and you are fun to talk with - this shit hasn't even had any quality control performed on it, so in good faith I cannot sell it, but after I figure out for sure it is worthwhile, the price will be accordingly. So, maybe in 2024 we can make a deal?

I'm glad you came by for a visit and I enjoy business and I play fair, but I ain't no fool - or at least I don't think I am....????

Best to you,

Half ounce if you run the numbers....10 ounces $4000 considering the lower volume and shipping cost - $500 for that and I'll send it after the funds are verified but no returns and no guarantees - it is a risky expenditure!

Now if you offer up 10 silver troy ounces coins, then I'll send it for that after I have the coins in possession - this is why local business is so much easier!

Your turn!

So, regardless of all the other posts shared here, I have product in the making and I will sell it to anybody interested in serious business - if you ain't then fuck off. If you are, then be respectful and maybe we can make a deal.

Now you know more about me - I play fair but if you fuck with me, then I don't do business with that shit.

Lesson learned for me - in the future on this SubStack strangers will be treated respectfully but cautiously cause business in business and somebody coming here and telling me "I got attitude" - they just are clueless and don't know their place - but they will soon enough and this is NOT their place.

Boy, as my grandma would say.....boy....what a bunch of bs, but I got other things to think about and I did look a dead doe in the eyes yesterday and it changed me.

So, I'm not the same person anymore as I was when I first posted this and neither are you.

Maybe I'm confused, but I swear I had more text here. Oh well, whether I'm confused or not, I'm gonna edit this post in the future. Do you doubt I can edit an article entitled "About Me"? I hope not, because that sort of doubt makes no sense to anybody. This is the kind of shit I like to say to bots - just to put them in their place.

It is folks like you that show up out of nowhere and then I respond in good faith and then you think you can act as if you know better - I'll tell you something I looked into the eyes of dead doe recent and I have no time for pretenders and troublemakers and you do yourself no favors and you are revealed here - so really - take off and it saddens me that this intercourse makes me less likely to be kind to a stranger, but maybe that was your goal in your boutique ambitions - if so know this, I will be kind to strangers and seriously you do yourself no favors coming to this place and treating me with disrespect - so I guess that is the end of any potential business and if this is how you operate, then I suspect pretty soon you will be broke.

in fact, you have sealed the deal of no future business from me cause you must realize this is my place talking "About Me" and you have the audacity to come here and try to teach me a lesson about business - be gone.
