Subject: MI5 Persecution: Life is so hard (524)

Life is so hard

Certainty level: 100%

This relates to harassment at my workplace in Canada. Yes, "they" had
their claws into my employers in North America, it doesn't just happen
in England, it happens here as well.

During the second half of 1996, at work, I was sitting near a co-worker
whom we shall call Mark (we can, because that's his name). This guy
occasionally came out with words and phrases that made me think that
"they" had got to him and were supplying him with information about my
home life (not social life please note, because of course I don't actually
have a social life here).

During November 1996 I tried to catch him in the act of saying something
"meaningful", a difficult exercise because as soon as he saw a tape
recorder, he shut up completely, except for times when he knew he would
be out of range of the walkman. (Note that the quality of this recording
is not very good; I was just using a four-year-old tape walkman with
a cheap microphone, quite low-tech).

During the evening of 12 November 1996, at home in my apartment (flat to
you UK-ers), I said "life is so hard, and then you die". A nihilistic,
negative thing to say, but quite distinctive. The following day,
13 November, Mark said loudly, "life is so hard eh, and then you die"
followed by loud laughter.

In my book the precise repetition of the words makes this incident a
100% certainty. You, the reader, may differ, but then living in a free
country allows each of us to have our own opinions, doesn't it?

Thank you.

Ouch! Oof! Wham! Owww! My head!

A bit less than 48 inches. I tell everyone I'm six-feet tall, but I'm
really 5' 11". I never bump my head going in or out. It is easier for
me to back out than to go out moving forward. The height of the walls
was determined by the width of plywood and T-111 (the siding) -- 48".
T-111 is usually installed vertically. I turned it sideways in order to
simulate the vinyl siding on our house. It works.

Thanks again,

Davoud

You're welcome. I _thought_ it looked low, but since one can't count on
true perspective from a picture I wasn't going to presume. As long as it
works is what matters. Wilt Chamberlain once said that he banged his head a
lot less than you might think as he always knew to duck.
