There isn’t any need to ask anyone for help, for anyone to do a favor for someone else (such as, for instance; Shannon, in her infinite wisdom, not taking seriously my aspirations to become an Author, for my literary works to serve as movers and shakers of society. and her viewing me as a distantly-related child that she doing something nice for rather than as an adult who was seriously pursuing a career as an Author, and who wanting to make a difference in the world with his literary works; her leaving me hanging for 7 years before she got around to working on that Book, and her ultimately deciding not to publish it a year later; after waiting for all of those years), and people don’t acquaint with strangers and talk to them for a little while out of courtesy and politeness before they move on, and and don’t want to talk to that person anymore, as opposed to the person wanting to be friends with the stranger, the stranger adopting that person into becoming a part of their family, and the person understanding that the stranger associating with him or her is the one of the best things to have ever happened to the stranger; because in Heaven and in other Universes, beings are usually understanding, compassionate, empathetic, and approachable of and to one another, and for lack of a better way to say it-things are usually hunky dory and peachy keen in Heaven and in other Universes.
One example is my mother, John Roeck, and Jeannette Wesolowski, while in Heaven; understanding of, and empathetic towards the emotions that people such as myself, and the people in the videos below have towards School Buses, instead of simply viewing them as machines and as pieces of steel; viewing their jobs related towards School Buses as nothing more as jobs to help them make ends meet, and John Roeck and Jeannette Wesolowski wanting to be friends with me, and them understanding that their associations with me, and all they’ve done for me are some of the best things to have ever happened to me; rather than them talking to, associating with, and making their acquaintances with me simply out of courtesy and politeness.
People also don’t feel in ways about me as described in the quotes below:
“Can you ask Matt to stop sending Chooseco Publishing staff members photos of his surgery? Or any kinds of personal E-Mails? It’s really creeping people out. Several staff have taken time out of busy schedules to help with his book. It’s a true labor of love. This does not show his appreciation and I must ask that he cease.”
-Shannon
“Well, you need to work on that. There are people – I am thinking Syrians who have been driven from their homeland by the war there – who have been living in squalid tent cities for years. They would be so grateful for a home that was dry and safe and snug, with running water and windows and doors and privacy and heat and a washing machine and a dryer and a refrigerator and a garden and a dog. So you need to put yourself in their shoes for a single second and then look around and pretend you are them and learn to love and appreciate everything and everyone near you and around you.”
-Shannon, with regards to her not comprehending why I would like to move in the Reality we live in, and that in Heaven and in other Universes, she and her family would occasionally visit us in the House on acres of property my parents, my paternal grandmother, and I would live in together
“I appreciate that you may have some historical reason for contacting me, but I should make it clear that I have no current connection with the stations, nor am I working in the industry except to do some technical consulting. I’m retired and have not been employed by Storer Communications since 1986.My father deceased in 2009 and many of those that I worked with from 1979-1986 have retired, died or I’ve lost track of them. If you have a specific question, I’m happy to try and answer it, but I have no access to station archives and only worked at WITI-TV for a short time, right before the company was taken over by KKR. Prior to that I worked at the rep in NYC and before that at CBS, so I had minimal exposure to station operations, TV or radio. I do know of Jefferson-Pilot, but did not have any direct contact with them. Much of what I know about the history of the company is posted on Wikipedia. I wish you best of luck in whatever search you are on, but I’m not sure I can be of much help”.
-Peter Storer Jr.
“I’ve answered your questions in the following response by E-Mail. I appreciate your consideration to leave me and Medianswers alone. I don’t have anything more to share as this is all old history that is well documented if you use Google.”
-Peter Storer Jr., not understanding how emotionally important to me his family’s company, and the Television Stations that they owned up until FOX had later ruined them when the Stations had affiliated with them under the ownership of Ron Perelman, and FOX thereafter acquiring the ex-Storer Stations, the Storers at times, having sat on the Board of Directors of CBS; and the “quality products” that Storer, Jefferson-Pilot, and CBS had each put on the air
“Matthew there is something deeply wrong with you. We never met. Never ever ever”.
-Mallory Tarcher-Lewis, not wanting to confirm the association Shannon and Ray once had with her mother Shari Lewis, and her aunt and Novelist Judith Krantz; in addition to Mallory not understanding the everlasting emotions I’ve always had, and always will continue to have over her mother, to the point where if her mother was family to me
In Heaven and in other Universes, American-designed and produced Front-Wheel-Drive, Unibody architecture Compact, C/D-Segment, Midsize, and Full-Size Passenger Cars, Minivans, and Crossover Utility Vehicles do not exist. Midsize Sport Utility Wagons such as the 1991-2010 Ford Explorer, the GMT360 SUVs, the 1991-2005 4-Door S-10 Blazer/S-15 Jimmy/Oldsmobile Bravada, DN and HB Dodge Durango/Chrysler Aspen, N180, N210 and N280 Toyota HiLux Surf/4Runner, and the R50 and R51 Nissan Terrano/Pathfinder also do not exist.
Only Intermediate, and Full-Sized Body-On-Frame Passenger Cars, Station Wagons, and Coupe Utilities, American Compact Cars like the Rear-Wheel-Drive GM X-Platform and the 1971-1977 Ford Maverick/Mercury Comet; Full-Size Pickup Trucks and Vans, Suburbans, 2-Door Utility Vehicles such as the Chevrolet K5 Blazer/2-Door Tahoe, Full-Size Ford Bronco, and the Dodge Ramcharger/Plymouth TrailDuster; European vehicles such as GM Europe (Opels and Vauxhalls), Ford of Europe, Volkswagens, Audis, Mercedes-Benzs, Renaults, Peugeots, Citroens, Fiats, Lancias, and Alfa Romeos; mainstream Asian vehicles that are not really designed for the North American market, and Japanese Sports Cars such as the Nissan Fairlady Z, Nissan Silvia/SX, Toyota Supra, Toyota MR2, Toyota Celica, Mitsubishi Starion, and the Mitsubishi GTO/3000GT all exist in Heaven, and in other Universes. Additionally, in North America; General Motors, Ford, Chrysler (without the K-Car Platform and the Minivans), and American Motors Corporation (AMC) all remain dominant in the North American Automotive market. Asian automakers do not become dominant in the North American Automotive market in Heaven, and in other Universes; as has been the case within the domain we actually live in beginning in the 2000’s.
Modern society since the late 1990’s, and well into the present day; is nonexistent in Heaven, and in other Universes. Instead, the 1970’s, 1980’s, and the early 1990’s last for eternity in Heaven, and in other Universes.
Doing and acquiring things for emotional reasons is as meaningful in Heaven and other Universes as doing and acquiring things for practical purposes within the domain we actually live in.
For instance, owning and living in a sizable house on acres of property in Heaven, and in other Universes is as practical as living in a small to modest-sized house on a typical small lot within a typical subdivision; a Condominium, a Townhome, or an Apartment within the domain we actually live in.
Another example is owning and driving a Full-Size Station Wagon (like those on the GM B and C, and Ford Panther Platforms), a Body-On-Frame, Intermediate Station Wagon or Coupe Utility such as a Chevelle, Tempest/LeMans, Cutlass, Century, Fairlane/Torino, Montego, El Camino, or a Ranchero; a Full-Size Van (whether it be an OEM/Stock Passenger Van or a Conversion Van), a Full-Size 2-Door Utility Vehicle, and a Full-Size Pickup Trucks are all as practical as owning a car-based Minivan, Passenger Cars on the Chrysler K, Ford CE14, CT120, and D186 Platforms, and General Motors, J, L, N, Front-Wheel-Drive A/W, and H Platforms, a Toyota Camry and Highlander, Lexus ES and RX, Honda Accord and Pilot, and an Acura TL all are within the domain we actually live in.
Owning a European vehicle in Heaven, and in other Universes is as practical as owning vehicles on the Chrysler K, Ford CE14 and CT120, and General Motors, J, L, and N Platforms; in addition to a North American spec Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, Acura Integra, and comparable Korean and Chinese vehicles all are within the domain we actually live in.
Owning a Battery-Electric Volkswagen Microbus, a T3 Volkswagen Transporter/Vanagon, a T4 Volkswagen Transporter/EuroVan, a Chevrolet Astro/GMC Safari, Ford Aerostar, R30 Toyota TownAce/VanWagon, XR20 Toyota Previa, C22 Nissan Vanette, and a P35W Mitsubishi Delica in Heaven, and in other Universes is as practical as owning a grand ole’ American-style Minivan like General Motors’ “Dustbuster” and U-platform Minivans, every Minivan that Chrysler has ever built since 1984, the WIN88, WIN126, and V2 Ford Windstar/Freestar/Mercury Monterey, a VX54 platform Nissan Quest/Mercury Villager, V41 and V42 Nissan Quests, LW Mazda MPV, XL10, XL20, XL30, and KL40 Toyota Siennas, RL2, RL3, RL4, RL5, and RL6 Honda Odysseys, and KV-II, VQ, and YP Kia Carnival/Sedonas and the related Hyundai Entourage all are within the domain we actually live in.
Moreover, in Heaven and in Alternate Universes; there are even high degrees of practicality to owning a Corvette (from the C2 onwards), a Nissan Fairlady Z, Nissan Silvia/SX, Toyota Supra, Toyota MR2, Toyota Celica, Mazda RX-7, Mitsubishi Starion, and a Mitsubishi GTO/3000GT.
Social normalities such as being involved in Sports, normal family gatherings, being close to close in kin extended family, one befriending and associating with people who are close to or exactly their own age; cooking, eating at home, living in a small house, and living on a typical small lot within a typical subdivision are of little to no importance and account in Heaven, and in other Universes.
Once Marc Brown and his wife Laurene “Laurie” have both made their way into Heaven, and into other Universes; they will likely discover for themselves how much they have in common with yours truly, Allen Shaw, Ken Squier, Neal Pilson, Walter Cronkite, Roone Arledge, Frank Reynolds, Peter Jennings, Ted Koppel, Jim Patterson, Clyde “Cloudy” McLean, Dr. Phil and Robin McGraw, Jan and Diane Pol, Ray Evernham, Richard Childress, Rick Hendrick, Jack Roush, George Seguin, Sue Waters, Linda Culliton, and Sherry Foster.
Hopefully, in Heaven and in other Universes; “light bulbs” will come on in Marc Brown and his wife Laurie’s heads to not make Arthur a socially normal child, and to not make his nuclear family a socially normal household.
For instance, instead of Arthur’s parents David and Jane Read barring Arthur and his eldest sister Dora Winifred “D.W” from watching a Television Show in the Thriller genre titled “Dr. Whose-It”, and revoking D.W’s Television viewing privileges when she and Bud Compson manage to watch this Thriller Television Show anyway; that David and Jane Read instead instill into their children the history of one or more Television Stations, the Transmitters they operate on, and the Effective Radiated Power (ERP) they transmit their signals with.
Another example is instead of Arthur’s Grandmother Thora sending D.W to her Bedroom, Thora knowing where in her son and daughter-in-law’s house her grandchildren’s Bedrooms are, that Marc Brown instead highlights Jane Read’s relationship with Thora as her mother-in-law, the fact that one’s relationship with their in-laws are usually tumultuous, the property value of David and Jane Read’s current House, and how much money the Property Taxes are for David and Jane Read’s current House. While D.W is in her Bedroom, she should also tune the AM/FM Radio within her Clock Radio to the hybrid Adult Contemporary-Easy Listening formatted FM Radio Station with an Effective Radiated Power (ERP) of 1 megawatt, and listen to this Radio Station playing, among other songs for the duration that D.W would be in her Bedroom; Eddie Rabbitt’s song from 1979 titled “Suspicions”.
Yet another example is instead of Arthur being involved with Sports, that Arthur is instead involved in Amateur/Ham Radio, that Arthur is a Ham Radio Operator, and that Marc Brown highlights that there is no age limit with regards to when one can become a Ham Radio Operator, and it is lawful and perfectly appropriate that a child or adolescent becomes a Ham Radio Operator.
And, another example is Arthur not doing what children should normally be doing, and not having friends and confidantes close to, or exactly his age (such as Buster, Francine, or Fern, to name a few). Instead, Arthur is friends with Teachers (including Nigel Ratburn), School Principals (including Herbert Haney), other School Administrators such as Superintendents, Directors of Transportation, and Directors of Special Education, his own parents David and Jane Read, his older relatives such as Minnie, Chrissy, John, Lorraine, Bud, Loretta, Sean, and Bonnie; and older people who are employed in the Broadcast Radio and Television Industry.
Bob Vila, his wife Diana Barrett, and Marc and Laurie Brown are each neighbors on Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts; so they likely know each other. Once Bob Vila and Diana Barrett have both made their way into Heaven, and into other Universes; they, too will likely discover for themselves how much they have in common with yours truly, Allen Shaw, Ken Squier, Neal Pilson, Walter Cronkite, Roone Arledge, Frank Reynolds, Peter Jennings, Ted Koppel, Jim Patterson, Clyde “Cloudy” McLean, Dr. Phil and Robin McGraw, Jan and Diane Pol, Ray Evernham, Richard Childress, Rick Hendrick, Jack Roush, George Seguin, Sue Waters, Linda Culliton, and Sherry Foster.
More people who are likely to be present in Heaven, and in other Universes are Dolly Parton and all of her siblings, Reba McEntire, Kenny Rogers, Barbara Mandrell, Diana “Naomi”, Christina “Wynonna”, and Ashley Judd; Willie Nelson, Dottie and Shelly West, Paul Davis, Lee Greenwood, Eddie Rabbitt, Tom T. Hall, Charlie Rich, Mickey Gilley, Wanda Jackson, Charley Pride, Tanya Tucker, Loretta Lynn, Glen Campbell, Bill and Lynn Anderson, Johnny Cash and his daughter Roseanne, Carlene Carter, Lorrie Morgan, Tammy Wynette, George Jones, Trisha Yearwood, Patsy Cline, Roy Acuff, Hank Williams Sr. and Jr., Waylon Jennings, Jessi Colter, and Randy Owen.
Even more people who are also likely to be present in Heaven, and in other Universes are Daryl Hall, John Oates, Joni Mitchell, Lionel Richie, Billy Ocean, Diana Ross, William “Smokey” Robinson Jr., Dionne Warwick, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Cher, Herb Alpert, Richard and Karen Carpenter, Barry Manilow, Paul McCartney and his wife Linda, John Lennon and his wife Yoko Ono, John Lennon’s son Julian Lennon, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Bette Midler, Sally Field, Lily Tomlin, Angela Lansbury, Dick and Barry Van Dyke, Oprah Winfrey and her friend Gayle King, Barbara Walters, Memphis and Detroit-area Disc Jockey Martha Jean Steinberg; and Disc Jockey and Television Personality Richard “Dick” Wagstaff Clark.
Besides my parents and I having absolutely nothing to do with my mother’s family, our extended family gatherings are not in any way, shape, or form like this; in Heaven, and in other Universes:
In Heaven and in other Universes, NASCAR forevermore remains complacent, NASCAR eternally holds onto the ways it had during the 1970’s, 1980’s, and 1990’s when it was a Car enthusiasts club rather than being a cohort to Basketball, Football, Hockey, Baseball, and Soccer; it never matters if Drivers and members of the Pit Crew are unathletic, heavy, and overweight; foreign automakers never have a presence in NASCAR, NASCAR Team Owners Bill and Mickey Stavola, Richard Childress, Bud Moore, brothers Glen and Leonard Wood, Jack Roush, Rick Hendrick, Tim Morgan, Larry McClure, Bob Rahilly, Butch Mock, Dick Bahre, Chuck Rider, Hoss Ellington, and Rod Osterlund, Crew Chiefs Ray Evernham, Andy Petree, Larry McReynolds, and Jake Elder, Richard Childress Racing Employee and Tireman Danny “Chocolate” Meyers, and Drivers such as ichard and Kyle Petty, Dale Earnhardt Sr., Neil Bonnett, Cale Yarborough, David and Buddy Baker, Bobby and Davey Allison, Jeff and Ward Burton, Rusty Wallace, Bill Elliott, Sterling Marlin, Ricky Craven, Ned and Dale Jarrett, J.D McDuffie, Jimmy Means, Geoff and Brett Bodine, Ernie Irvan, Lake Speed, Rick Mast, Randy LaJoie, Billy Standridge, Rick Wilson, Billy Hagan, Harry Gant, Dave Marcis, Tommy Ellis, Tony Stewart, Clint Bowyer, Charlie Glotzbach, Bobby Issac, and Ricky Rudd; and kindred spirits to each of these aforementioned Drivers forevermore have a presence in NASCAR.
In Heaven and in other Universes, CBS forevermore holds the Television rights to NASCAR, Ken Squier forevermore continues to call the NASCAR Races for CBS; and Neal Pilson forevermore remains the President of CBS Sports.
If 16th Century Dutch Painter Jheronimus (Hieronymus) Bosch is correct and accurate as far as his depictions of Heaven and Hell in his Paintings “The Garden Of Earthly Delights”, “Terrestrial Paradise”, “Death of the Reprobate”, and “The Hermit Saints” and are concerned…
Additionally, if 16th Century Flemish (Belgian) Painter Pieter Bruegel the Elder’s Painting “Dulle Griet” is correct and accurate as far as his depiction of Hell is concerned…
Moreover, if 16th Century Italian Painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo’s series of Paintings titled “The Four Seasons” is correct and accurate as far has his depictions of the destiny and fate of us Human Beings is concerned…
And, if 20th Century Spanish Painter Joan Miró’s Painting “The Tilled Field” is correct and accurate as far as his depiction of Hell is concerned…
Then people such as my parents, I, my father’s family, John Roeck, Jeannette Wesolowski, Marc Brown and his wife Laurie, Bob Vila and his wife Diana Barrett, Shari Lewis, Allen Shaw, Ken Squier, Neal Pilson, Walter Cronkite, Roone Arledge, Frank Reynolds, Peter Jennings, Ted Koppel, Jim Patterson, Clyde “Cloudy” McLean, Dr. Phil and Robin McGraw, Jan and Diane Pol, Ray Evernham, Richard Childress, Rick Hendrick, Jack Roush, George Seguin, Sue Waters, Linda Culliton, and Sherry Foster are sure to wind up in Heaven, and in other Universes.
Also to likely wind up in Hell with my mother’s family, and these aforementioned modern NASCAR and Formula 1 Drivers, and The Property Brothers; are NHL Players Derek Morris, Shane Doan, Cale Hulse, Darren McCarty, and Martin LaPointe and his sons, NBA Players Scot Pollard and Greg Foster, Scot Pollard’s relatives who are also Basketball Players by the names of Neal, Nathan, Jeffrey, and Ryan Pollard; and MLB Players Steve Pearce and Mike Fiers.
Beings who we’ll refer to as Satan’s assistants, once they all possibly arrive in Hell; teethes on the muscular arms and legs like a how a Dog would, and then grabs, squeezes, and twits the chests and biceps of the sons and nephew of both of my mother’s brothers, all of these aforementioned modern NASCAR and Formula 1 Drivers, the Property Brothers, all of these aforementioned NBA, NHL, and MLB Players; and Baseball Player/Basketball Player/former Police Detective Matt Frazier.
Beings who we’ll refer to as Satan’s assistants, also chew on the heads of my mother’s youngest brother’s son, Matt Kenseth’s son Ross, NHL Player Derek Morris, NBA Players Greg Foster and Scot Pollard, Scot Pollard’s relatives Neal, Nathan, and Jeffrey Pollard; and MLB Players Steve Pearce and Mike Fiers.
