നധ McAFEE WEEKLY......Conversations with John

HAIL TO THE CHIEF............

Never say Never. That, ladies and gents, is exactly how I feel each and every time someone inserts John McAfee into any venture.  Does he want to be Microsoft's CEO as voted by the Tech community?  Or how about JM for President of the United States, a suggestion that has been made time and again, either online or by direct contact? Should he pick a State, and run for Governor?  Or maybe work with the Government to fix this Healthcare debacle? Just kidding on that one...we already know the outcome of that. The people had spoken, now I had to know what John himself thought of all this.

JM TALKS HEALTHCARE...........

Tune in tonight to hear John's take on the Healthcare fiasco.   "Obamascare"   on The John Stossel Show, 9 PM EST.  Don't want to miss it.

POLICE AND THIEVES...................

I love the TMZ show, and thank them for bringing this story to my attention.  The esteemed (GAG) leader of Belize, Dean Barrow is in Los Angeles for a couple of weeks. Why? Well, it's really a personal vacation, yet likely at the full expense of Belize.... in one way or another. Apparently, there was an 'invitation' from a group of Belizeans in L.A. for him to speak at an event (a good enough excuse to charge the trip), but he and his wife are really in the United States seeking medical attention. Again. This time it's Dean, and something to do with his back. Hmmmmm.....Great Country you run, Dean.  Last time it was your wife in Miami. What's wrong with all the Doctors in your wonderful Belize?Some of the comments I found show that Belizeans already know the problem...... but Dean, you're making it clear to the outside world that you have no faith in your own medical system....and you don't care, either.  As long as the privileged can continue to travel wherever, and get the care they need, that's all that matters.  Mass population be damned.

UPDATE FROM SANDWILLOW...............

Just in case anyone reading this blog is interested in what became of the effort to find a charity to provide school uniforms to needy students in Belize , this is what happened. We started out thinking this would be easy, first mistake.  We didn't have a contact in Belize.  But we have the Internet so we thought we could just research the idea and find an easy answer.  We didn't.  What we found were road blocks and stone walls.  Many of the larger charitable organizations have either left Belize or were never there.

LOOK BOTH WAYS...........

GUEST POST by SL



I’ve looked at John McAfee from both sides now…

From up and down and still somehow… I really don’t know John McAfee at all, or do I?

I, along with many of you, have been riding this crazy train of the John McAfee Saga since it began on that fateful day in November.  For me it began like any other day, at my computer.  While scrolling through the top headlines on Huffington Post, there it was, the wanted poster.  As I clicked the link I could almost hear Ozzy yelling…

"ALL ABOOOOOAAAARRD AHAHAHAHAHAHA..."

NO SLEEP........

Greetings all.  It feels like forever since I've had a chance to do this.  So much has been going on, but it's all good.  Recently I was asked to be part of an amazing project, and thrilled at the opportunity, I got right to work.  Of course, I jumped in with both feet and fell flat on my face, lol but I got back up and started again.  I was thrilled when I got a thumbs up, and now that I'm over the 'learning curve', I should have more time for wimawiw.  

നധ WHERE IS McAFEE WEEKLY?............

They say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions...... and I'd just like to say 'hello' from that hot flaming street.  Despite my best efforts, circumstances have put the publishing of this week's installment of MW behind....obviously not what anyone wanted, but shit happens.  I can tell you that some of what John and I talked about will give a much desired update on some of our favorite people, but that's all the hints for now.  Thanks for being patient, I will get this posted for you ASAP.

Ever mindful of the rights of others, I made sure before we started that John knew he was being recorded.  What? lol.... At least I told him.  Chuckles aside, I asked about the whistle blower actions that still have Edward Snowden 'hanging out' in a Russian airport transit zone.  smh

JM DOES CAVUTO.............

Catch John today with Neil Cavuto on Fox. 

JM opened, and talked with Neil for the first half of the show.  He looked and sounded great, spot on as they say.  I especially liked the quick reply when NC asked how much he was worth.... " well, how much are you worth, sir? "  Bazinga...  lol.  I actually like Neil Cavuto, think he's a pretty decent guy with a non-fox like style ~ and an actual sense of humor, that worked well with John's.  I certainly appreciated that he took the time to touch on a variety of subjects, and that he didn't try to rush or interrupt JM's answers.  Kudos NC.  It must have been refreshing for John too, to be able to finish a sentence.  ;)

The entire interview is at whoismcafee , and certainly worth watching.

McAFEE WEEKLY.........................Special Guest

Having John in Montreal last week, filming the Documentary Who is McAfee, provided an excellent opportunity to talk with someone else who is a big part of his life....

Do you love to laugh?...... you know, that outrageous,
uncontrollable laughter, because something is so funny you have no other choice?  The rolling on the floor, glad you're not old enough to worry about an 'accident', make it stop....my belly hurts, laughter?  It's one of my favorite things to do, and I love being around funny people.  Laughter is purifying for the soul, and should be done on a regular basis to keep our psyche's well lubricated. As the the youngest of 5 educated, well mannered, loud, funny and creative children (my mom made me say that), I had no choice but to find my niche early on.  Art?  Loved it always.... my Grandfather was an artist, so it runs in the genes, and I'm one of the lucky ones to whom it comes fairly naturally.  That doesn't mean I think I'm Picasso, it just means that I am  capable....anyone who has tried any art medium knows what I'm talking about.  I still paint regularly, and find it one of the most relaxing and gratifying things I do.  Sports?

CH~CH~CH~CHANGES..............and JM as you've never heard him.

Some people love living a life full of changes.....often celebrating the opportunities, while others dread the mere mention of any deviation from their comfortable routine.....often living in fear of it.  Most of us are somewhere in the middle.....we may not want too many changes, but we're fully aware they happen anyway, and have learned to roll with them. Most changes are already in 'full swing' by the time we find out about them anyway, so stress and worry are futile.  However, I also know some changes are cool .......like this one :

~LOVE THE ONE YOU'RE WITH~
parts 1 & 2

 നധ  It was only week two, so I was still anxious. Waiting for John's email, I pondered the possible topics.  There was certainly no shortage in my mind of things to talk about, but this week I was hoping JM would take the opportunity to pick something that was important to him. Last week had been such a blast, and hearing his laughter and the enjoyment he got reminiscing about the Sky Gypsy days had me hoping for more of the same.  I opened the email and smiled..... this was going to be enlightening to say the least.  JM had made a decision, and I was completely game......although a little concerned about having enough questions to ask..... well, momentarily anyway.

[ny times]

TEASE ME........

Never having been a fan of the 'teasers' that run rampant in much of our media, I have always tried to avoid using them myself......... UNTIL NOW  buhahaha.

BURNING DOWN THE HOUSE........

Have you ever felt psychic? No, not psychotic, lol, and maybe not even psychic so much as intuitive?........like when you have  that nagging feeling of impending doom, or a knot in the pit of your stomach, but no real reason why?  Well that was me on Thursday.  I didn't know what it was exactly, but I knew there was something.  Despite being busy with multiple projects, the feeling kept creeping back, overshadowing everything else I was doing.  Quite frankly, it was annoying.....primarily because I couldn't figure out the source.  After a round of 'call the family & friends' there was still no explanation for my ominous thoughts.    I was extremely perplexed.............WTF was going on?  I obviously needed some sleep.

TRUNKS OF MEMORIES.......

6 months ago the only McAfee in my world was the AV 'stuff' protecting my computers, (doing a fine job btw).  Sure, I knew he was a real person, but thoughts of 'him' weren't a regular occurrence......hell, I barely gave the program any thought, never mind the man.   Little did I know, a few days later,  how much the TV, running in the background of my normal life, would impact me and my world with such an unprecedented, intense, often mind-blowing journey.  It was a list of firsts......a hair-raising cat and mouse chase playing out live on our computers, a Master of Marketing playing the MSM right under their noses, and blogging from detention - whether as John or Harold - all generated by McAfee ingenuity......the name we knew, the man we didn't..........yet. A wild trip indeed, and I didn't even have to pack.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

BRAND NEW DAY.........

There was a certain rush I got when JM landed in Miami.  We had traveled so far with him...... invested ourselves somehow in his safe return to America, and it felt like a huge win.  I've been waiting to feel that rush again.   It didn't happen immediately upon reading that George Jung would be writing John's biography, No Domain, but a bit of research on George, and another viewing of Blow made me realize it's amazing potential...... I'm excited now.

JUSTICE IS NOT JUST A WORD......

***wimawiw followers.........please sign the petition now available here.  So far, the signatures are almost all Canadians.....Let's show some worldwide support for Jeff's family.  THX.

The new website dedicated to finding Justice for Jeffrey (Furgala) got me thinking.  Just how many murders and suspicious deaths have there been in Belize since November 2012,  and how many of them have been solved? How many other foreigners have been victims?  When is the International community going to stop visiting Belize and demand accountability for their shady (at best) actions? .......I say BOYCOTT BELIZE NOW.
