I haven't even resumed watching the DVD. I still have it paused, on the television screen in front of me, of "Joe Hallenbeck" and "Jimmy Dix" as they sit in the police station. I have had the DVD paused at that point for so long I cannot now recall offhand the details about why they are sitting there.
But suddenly I recalled as I walked back into the living room and I saw them sitting there in that scene paused from the DVD and I recalled that during that scene they were talking about the leather pants "Jimmy Dix" was wearing. That was the reason I paused the DVD. Why the matters does not matter really at all.
What that reminded me of is a time, was that 2002?, I think is. Must have been.
The way I recall it, I had recently purchased a new leather jacket from that big mall in downtown Bellevue. I remember something creepy the guy behind me in the line at the checkout said.
For some reason, I had decided to go out and purchase a new jacket, which I did not really need, and I decided on a really cool brown leather jacket. The jacket had a really cool inner liner that I liked and I so rarely go out and make that kind of purchase and even now, having done without for so long, can I really understand why I bought that jacket. Especially because even back then I rarely made such purchases.
So anyway, the real point of this note is because of something that happened, as I recall, and that I think I have thought about before in recent terms, in the elevator at that Microsoft facility I worked at in Issaquah Washington State at the south end of Lake Washington with Redmond Washington at the other end.
I thought I would be able to remember the name of that guy who, I think was standing there with Bill Bevan, asked me about that new leather jacket I was wearing and he asked me, seemingly surprised at my response of how much it cost, after I told him four hundred dollars. I didn't really even know the guy so that was puzzling.
I thought I could find references to him in my journal but now I cannot find those references. I cannot recall his name. I wanted to find that because I feel certain, as I had thought before that he died on 3 March 2003. As I recall, he died of head trauma, an euphemism for someone Corbis Microsoft Bill Gates kills with a hammer blow to the head. Maybe they shot him in the head. I don't know. I read about it somewhere.
I cannot even recall his name. Tram? Wasn't he born in Vietnam and raised in the United States? I can't recall. I do recall for certain he was the one who asked me how much that jacket cost. I had thought about it again earlier tonight when I was watching the racketeering production the 2000 film "Mission to Mars" and the pilots and flight crew officers wore brown leather jackets in that film.
I also decided to tack on here, seconds before posting without this paragraph, my notion about intelligence assets of the United States. Why I am even telling you this? The reason should be obvious. My belief is the United States intelligence authorities have for a long time avoided sending fellows such as Gary Powers into danger zones and have instead utilized criminal elements within the target zones for inteligence information. The benefit is that if the asset is captured then there is no real loss because that source was doomed to begin with. Criminal elements are easier to recruit because they have guilty conscience.
Obviously King County Washington State is under the control of racists violently against the United States of America.

There were a lot of detail that I cannot articulate because I don't understand what it means. At one point, I seemed to be sitting in a park I don't recognize and there was a naked woman nearby and I was thinking to myself that I am married and she was not my wife so nothing was going to happen with her. Something like that. That could have been Phoebe's mother but I am not certain. She could have been a woman I dated before Phoebe and I got married.
At another point, I was walking along a sidewalk after leaving that park and I didn't recognize the location but there seemed to be someone, an older couple couple, that I passed by and the man pointed out to the woman the jacket I was carrying. The jacket varies, as I ponder the dream, between the blue Air Force jacket that "Doug Masters" wore in "Iron Eagle," with the blue outer shell and the orange inner lining, and that expensive, heavy, brown leather jacket with the gold liner I bought a few years back when I was at Microsoft. I remember thinking to myself that the man had pointed out that jacket to the woman and that seemed important. After I walked for a while, I went into what I think was a hotel room where I was staying but I also do not recognize any details about the location. I remember that I was putting some food into the refrigerator and I commented to myself that I should not have left it unrefrigerated for all that time I was sitting in the park.

The notion about taking the ship and going to work on the Microsoft facilities is not really new. I can remember sitting in that park in front of Seattle P-I and having similar thoughts. Sometimes I would think about a helicopter flying in and transporting me back to a USN ship that was nearby. Other times I would think of about 5 Arleigh Burke-destroyers steaming into the bay and, while following my directions, begin to bombard the skyscapers of Seattle with the 5-inch guns.
