to which i responded

yes, boss, but that was then and now is now.

what we the employees will now do is
(i) thank you for all that you had done for us back then
(ii) appreciate and reflect on the net net pluses and minuses of what we are about to do, and then
(iii) make sure that your (a) remaining wealth stay w/i the borders of our legislative power, (b) taxable addresses are updated, (c) assets identified, (d) cash forced into bonds and shares, (e) gold escape hatch is sealed shut, and you are (f) defaulted on.

we will do it to you while listening to folk.ntnu.no

the pain, we assure you, will last but a few moment, in consideration of your past contributions to our welfare and your residual social redeeming value.

resistance is futile, democracy is great

oppressed of the world, unite, for this is the final struggle, and tomorrow is a very bright day.

rah rah

cheers, your ex-employees

Sushi in the space allocated to Ferrari. Aiko Sakama, sushi restaurant owner invited to a space in the middle of the Detroit auto-show. That space, historically, was used to be occupied by Ferrari. There was Aiko Sakama selling his sushis, USD2 a box with 4 units.

Nissan, Land Rover and Porsche did not show up. Mitsubishi had said it would not come. It came at the last moment on request of the auto-show organizers. They put something very simple, even the name Mitsubishi was not written on the wall.

Big 3 did not make a splash. Imagine a megafiesta just after receiving money from the government: It would not be nice...

Were the Chinese there, you may be asking. Well, actually they have been there before Mr. TJ. They used to put their cars OUTSIDE the show area. Today, they had 1.000m2 (inside) where GM used to show theirs cars....

The apartment cats will be thrown in the back alley to fight it off with the stray cats.

It is going to be cold out there Mr. TJ!

>To All My Valued Employees, ........

It seems this email is a Fake. See below,
Ronbo

Ed. note: This letter was originally circulated on the internet in an anonymous form, and only later began to be attributed to a Mr. M. Crowley. To protect Mr. Crowley's interests, we must note that Crowley & Associates of Wake Forest, North Carolina did not in fact write this letter. This website has received the following message from Michael Crowley:

From: Michael A. Crowley, PE
Sent: Friday, January 09, 2009 9:10 AM
Subject:

In reference to the “To all my valued employees” letter currently circulating the internet:

This letter was forwarded to me by a colleague. While the letter may indeed be authentic, I was not the author and I do not know the identity of the original author. I forwarded it to the “John McCain Joe the Plumbers” email group prior to the election. Someone moved my contact information into the body of the message making it appear that I was the author of the letter. I would appreciate your removing my contact information prior to forwarding this message.

Michael A. Crowley, PE ]

and

It should be noted that this letter was almost certainly not written by the real Michael Crowley, PE.

Firstly, the letter says that the company was started "12 years ago." The real Mr. Crowley ought to know that, according to his own website, the company was incorporated in 2001.

Secondly, the letter states, "[a]t that time, I lived in a 300 sq.ft. studio apartment for 3 years. My entire living space was converted into an office so I could put forth 100% effort into building a company, which by the way, would eventually employ you."

Of course, the real Mr. Crowley also should know, that according to his own professional summary, he went into business for himself the year before incorporating with other associates, and prior to that had held executive-level positions "with several engineering firms in North Carolina and Maine."
