THERE'S SO MUCH MORE I'VE GOT TO LEARN...

HOW EXCITING!!! I GUESS BY THE TIME I TURN 200 YEARS OF AGE, I MAY WANT TO START COUNTING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.

I'VE BEEN THINKING OF THE ENORMOUS CELEBRATION WE'LL BE SHARING AFTER THE FIRST CITY HAS BEEN RESURRECTED, HOPEFULLY THAT WILL BE YONKERS...I INVISION RECYCLED WATER FLOWING UNDER AQUDUCTS, AND I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF THAT'S FEASIBLE...MAYBE THE RETAIL AREA CAN BE BELOW OUR HOMES...A MINI CITY IN AND OF ITSELF...

I ALSO THOUGHT OF ALL TH GREAT PIZZA AND HAMBURGER PLACES, THAT COULD BE CITIES WITHIN THEMSELVES, LIKE WELCOME TO HAMBURGER WORLD OR PIZZA CITY, WITH FRIENDLY COMPETITION GOING ON...

JUST A SUGGESTION AND A BIT FEEBLE, AND ALSO YONKERS IS KNOWN FOR ITS HILLS...SO WE COULD HAVE HIKING TRAILS LIKE RUNYON CANYON AND ALSO ANIMAL SANCTUARIES CONNECTING TO FINANCIAL MAKING LIVE ENTERTAINMENT VENUES...

LIKE RUNYON CANYON CONNECTING TO THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL AND TO THE GREEK, AND SO FORTH AND SO ON...SO MUCH TO DO, AND A GREAT DEAL OF TIME...SO LET'S NOT RUSH IT AND THINK IT THROUGH WITH LOTS OF POSITIVE INPUT AND SUGGESTIONS, AND DON'T FEEL AS IF YOU CAN'T SAY WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND...THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT...BECAUSE WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY IS AS IMPORTANT AS ANYONE ELSE'S INPUT...AND WE CAN ALL GAIN FROM LISTENING, SOMETHING THAT I NEED MUCH MORE PRACTISE, I READILLY ADMIT.

AND THE BIG PARADE AFTER IT'S ALL COMPLETED AND WE DO THIS WITH EACH COMPLETION OF EACH TOWN,CITY AND EVERY COUNTRY AROUND THE WORLD...TELL ME, TRUTHFULLY, DOESN'T THIS SOUND EXCITING...YOU CAN COME UP WITH MANY BETTER IDEAS THAN WHAT I HAVE MENTIONED, AND OF COURSE SINCE TEN YEAR OLDS AND OLDER WILL BE ON THE BOARDS WE ASK FOR YOUR SUGGESTIONS OF COURSE...

REMEMBER, ONE OF THE MAJOR QUESTIONS IS THAT IF WE COLLECTIVELY COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT WE DON'T WANT THE CURRENT DECISION MAKING GOVERNMENT BODY, WHAT AND WHO DO WE PUT IN ITS PLACE.

ALSO, WHEN WE'RE FARTHER ALONG, REMEMBER THE PROFESSIONALS WILL BE INSTRUCTING AND THIS WILL BE SHARED WITH THE STUDENTS PUTTING ON THEIR ORIGINAL PRODUCTIONS AT A FAST PACE, TRULY PUSHING THE ENVELOPE TO BRING OUT THE BEST IN YOU...AND ULTIMATELY THE BEST OF THE BEST COULD BE TURNED INTO A MONEY MAKING PLAY, MOVIE, OR WHAT HAVE YOU.

THIS CAN BE APPLIED TO ANY INDUSTRY NOT JUST ENTERTAINMENT OF COURSE, HAVING COOKIE CUTTER APPLICATION.

SO WE MAY HAVE A SPECTACULAR, NOT ONLY ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY, BUT A PEACEFUL HARMONIOUS WORLD, WHERE WE ALL CAN BECOME INDEPENDENTLY WEALTHY, THANK YOU VERY MUCH...

PEOPLE WHO STUTTER HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART DUE TO THE FACT THAT I USED TO STUTTER WHICH ONLY MEANS THAT YOUR MIND GOES FASTER THAN HOW YOU CAN ARTICULATE...AND REMEMBER, GOOD IDEAS CAN COME FROM ANYONE AT ANY AGE...

OK, I'LL CLIMB DOWN FROM MY SOAP BOX NOW AND LEAVE TO GO ENJOY A GORGEOUS DAY HERE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA...

HAVE FUN! SEE YOU SOON AND THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP...KEEP IT COMING AND I'LL RETURN THE FAVOR!
