Quite frankly it seems like a convenient excuse to blame him totally anyway. The sheer number of comments scattered about the internet complaining about McAfee Anti-virus show that there was dissatisfaction that had nothing to do with the founder, but instead was directed at the company and a perceived inferior product. <br />I'm not trying to say that JM had no effect on their bottom line, I just don't think he played as big a part as they would like to believe.

One is, "Gone Native." John could be described as being a member of it. This set him somewhat apart from other expats, but hardly unique.<br /><br />From the gitgo John's genius was not in technology but in marketing; he invented/revolutionized viral marketing. Each of his products left a bad taste.<br /><br />It could be said that John's "Belize Escape Caper" was viral marketing. This is the reason the MSM largely held their noses while reporting, if they reported at all. The more ravenous and less picky of the media were fully infected and gobbled it all up. John's playing of them against each other as he disapproved of their stories was masterful and served to add to the viral infection.<br /><br />Haven't seen "The Prisoner" for years...<br /><br />Rodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10747759716357797787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5198641364170744475.post-79413978370240477542013-03-31T09:44:21.136-04:002013-03-31T09:44:21.136-04:00Keep it classy Yahoo, keep it classy :P

We can then have parents in belize come here and tell their story and request a uniform and tell us the size and we can order the uniform and have it shipped to their house. There is no need to go through a charity org. We can handle it ourselves. It would do two things. Would give uniforms to the kids in need and also bring attention to the blog and help us find out more needs and work on ways of helping with those also. So if anyone knows how much the uniforms are and where to purchase them please let us know. jdsniderjrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18221614622632223007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5198641364170744475.post-19351330552501817002013-03-31T02:01:53.973-04:002013-03-31T02:01:53.973-04:00Hey Rod,

This prestigious spot should boost the economy......always a good thing. And it would be great to see the Government assign some of that increased revenue towards uniforms for the needy, but I don't expect for one nano second to see that happen. Things with us are slow moving, but that hasn't changed our ultimate goal, just the timetable. <br /><br />Hopefully you will be able to take full advantage of your beautiful dive spots, despite this ominous report on how Barrow has been secretly selling the country and it's offshore waters, including protected areas. <br /><br />http://www.tribune242.com/news/2013/mar/27/belize-and-its-experience-with-oil/<br /><br /><br />WEBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11513371478036476448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5198641364170744475.post-56699883402611342832013-03-31T01:53:29.831-04:002013-03-31T01:53:29.831-04:00And then there's this from the ever-tasteful Y...And then there's this from the ever-tasteful Yahoo:<br /><br />http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/photos/luxury-belize-hotels-slideshow/top-belize-hotels-for-mcafee-bounty-hunters-photo-418537631.htmlRodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10747759716357797787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5198641364170744475.post-86197128739892931402013-03-31T01:43:57.830-04:002013-03-31T01:43:57.830-04:00Tourists see a completely different Belize than wh...Tourists see a completely different Belize than what is the reality.<br /><br />This is what set John apart from the other ex-pats.

Volunteering at the Women's shelter.<br />Tomorrow is knitting blankets for the Orphahange day.<br />Next week we mail the wool socks to the Russian Orphans.<br />The following week we collect and mail the knittings for the service men and women.<br /><br />Winter is winding down so we don't do the homeless shelter as much. Knitting again.<br /><br />This is just a small sampling of the local charitable things I do. I also contribute money and time to others. Every year my guild buys a fiber animal for a needy family through the Heifer project. <br /><br />Locally i am active. I also am what i call an armchair activist for many causes. Currently the cause that has me most active is gun control.<br /><br />Yep there is poverty, corruption, murders and all the horrible things that mankind can do all over this big ole world. I can't do anything about the whole world. So you start with a piece of it.<br /><br />The heifer project does this. They don't give money to a family, they give them a fiber animal. they teach them to care for it and harvest it. they teach them what to do with the fiber. That way the family can sustain themselves.<br /><br />We are looking for a way to help education in Belize. Through education they will be able to life themselves out of poverty. they will be able to combat the corruption. Not in my lifetime but I do not do the things I do for recognition. I do it for people. <br /><br />You are a hateful individual. The time and energy you have focused on what you cal such an incredible crime could have better served hundreds of people. How many murders have there been in Belize since Gregory Faull was murdered? How many unsolved? How many child molestations? And I am talking real molestations, not your fabricating, being picky about was amy 15 or a6...I am talking very young children. You have to start somewhere. <br /><br />I could choose a country by throwing a dart, but you need a critical mass in order to affect any change. John Mcafee has created that critical mass. I never said he was a saint. I know for a fact he is not. I also would never compare him to Charles Manson. Out of all the criminals you could have pulled out of your ass, he is the one with the least in common to John. All his "women" were young but well over 18. Manson actually murdered someone. Premeditated and tried to cover it up. Manson had delusions of granduer like he was a god. John is none of those things.<br /><br />I really don't give a flying fuck how much you hate John McAfee or How much your itty feelings are hurt because your game isn't working. i don't give a flying fuck about you. But, you bring too much hate and negativity into my space, into our universe. You are a burden to society. You are a wretched person. You do not deserve to breathe the same air as i do, let alone the same as John Mcafee. He is no saint, but he is also not an evil man like you. Do the world a favor and slither back under that rock you came out of.
