'METAL BOX' - 6/29/07

I'm tired of receiving emails from people who are angry that I'm driving an SUV. First of all I feel safe driving in my Range Rover. I'm always paranoid that someone is going to plow into my vehicle.

I don't feel safe driving a small car. I don't drive fast around curves. An SUV is a truck not a sports car.

I like the feeling of sitting high in the vehicle, I'm not a fast driver, but I am careful.

I don't talk on my cell phone while I drive and I am respectful of other drivers. So I'm not a 'Self-centered SUV driving idiot.

When I was living in the U.K. I owned several Land Rover 109's and Land Rover Defender 110's, so I am very familiar with the vehicle I also restored many 109's as a hobby. The Rover 109 had no creature comforts, it was a real truck. Unfortunately it's very expensive to obtain one of them in the states, plus they're not meant for everyday freeway driving.

I get enough grief from Keren who states how much she hates my car. Maybe I should have bought a Diesel vehicle and converted it over to Bio-Diesel.

Why should I feel bad? After all I need to feel safe. I only drive when I have to , I walk whenever I can.

Another viewer, another video. This one claims to have been in an accident on 10/23/04. Is this real or another nut job? I guess the title explains it all.

We'll see.

This is Keren. Jack is under the weather. This is the first time that I've blogged on Jack's site. Although I'm not new to maintaining and uploading videos for him. I really don't know what to write ... everything you need to read is in the vblog. I really appreciate all the emails of support for Jack. Hopefully in a few days he'll be feeling better, but in the meantime there's so much work to do.

UNDER MY SKIN - 6/8/07

It's hard to exist on a daily basis. Whenever I'm driving I suffer from anxiety attacks. It's the same whenever I'm in public.

People are greedy. They care only for themselves.

I'm fed up with the world. It's become an ugly place. It's sad to say that I can't find beauty in nature. It has ceased to exist for me.

I have no faith in mankind. Civilization will come to an end. I just hope that I won't witness it.

OVERLOADED - 6/1/07

Another video by Roy. His video is strange. I find it unnerving. Jolting to the senses. I don't know what he's trying to accomplish.

Disturbing.

SUICIDE AT BEACHY HEAD - 5/25/07

Richard - The Paranormal Videographer sent me another video.

Apparently there was a suicide. Someone drove their car off Beachy Head on the south coast of England in East Sussex. It's roughly 500 ft above sea level, it's also the U.K.'s premier place to commit suicide.

According to Richard it wasn't a suicide but an accident with a certain number 23. Sound familiar?

Where's Roy when you need him?

RE/MOVED - 5/18/07

Keren's friend is a good realtor indeed. Absolutely fantastic! She sold my home in 5 days! The buyer was approved, we had a short escrow.

I bought an old manufacturing plant, very secure. It's 12,000 sq. feet, security cameras surround the premise. It feels like a bomb shelter. My room is deep in the recess of the cavernous factory.

I'm not going to blog about the moving van, you can see the vlog. But I'm still mad. I felt like having a pint that night, but I'm not one to get pissed.

I have lot's of room. I can make all the noise I want without upsetting the neighbors. Well, there are no neighbors per say.

I have lots of room for the Mini-Cooper truck, my Range Rover and a 4,000 sq. foot library! I'm also moving my media room/library into another large room.

The only thing I'm concerned about is heating my room. But I paid next to nothing for the building so I really can't complain about it.

Dust is everywhere. I'm allergic to dust, it's in my throat. The dust gives me a dry throat.

Keren loves the new dwelling. She wants to move into one of the 2,000 sq. foot rooms. I'll see about that. But it might be nice to have a room mate. Keren is lovely. But I do need my privacy.

I'll be unpacking for the next year. If I'm lucky I'll have everything done in a month.

SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT - 5/13/07

Scene of the accident

Keren convinced me to go ... I haven't been to the site since the accident ... I couldn't sleep, I was restless and nervous. Sod it I thought, let's get it over with.

I don't remember a thing from the accident, everything looks different during the day. At night the area is dark, lot's of winding roads. Keren took a look at the police report and told me where to turn off.

I parked the car and took a walk to the scene of the accident. Strange, it seems serene, but Trabuco Canyon Rd. is anything but peaceful. Within a few yards there is a memorial to someone who passed away - car accident. A couple of miles away another memorial. Just thinking about it sends shivers down my spine.

Dry brush litters the landscape, it's possible for someone to crash his/her car and not be noticed for months. There are dozens of cars that litter the bottom of the canyon.

It was hard to pinpoint where the car crashed, tire marks are non-existant due to rain and the growth of dry brush.

I was fearing this day for months, but thanks to Keren I overcame my nightmares, but I'm still not any closer to finding out what the cause of the accident is.

'CATATONIC' - 5/6/07

I received another video from the doctor at the
Stuttgart-Stammheim Prison in Germany.

The Patient was in a car crash 6 months ago with
injuries similar to my accident; recent surgical scars,
loss of time, bright lights blinding him, etc.

A copy of the 23 photograph was found at the scene of the accident.

This is the second car crash patient residing in the Stuttgart-Stammheim Prison.

I hope the doctor will be able to find out what really happened.

PARAMNESIA - 4/29/07

Keren and I spent the weekend relaxing. I've been under a lot of stress lately, so we decided to go to the beach. As usual I brought the video camera with me. It's my 'security blanket' I guess.

On the way to the beach I saw a man speaking to a reporter, his associates stood behind him. It looks like they just left a business meeting. There are several large buildings near the beach. I don't know who the man is, but I feel that I've seen him before, so I kept the camera in my 'surveillance camera bag'.

I should have approached him, but I didn't know what to say, when I did have the courage the reporter left as did the man into a waiting SUV.

I'm hoping that the interview surfaces on tv or the internet.

I'm certain that I met him somewhere in the past. It's beginning to bother me.

I've seen this man before, but I don't know where or when.

Is this a case of deja-vu, or am I dreaming?

AGITATION - 4/22/07

AGITATION

I've been in a restless mood. I stared at the camera with absolutely nothing to say. I've been looking at the car crash surveillance tape over and over. I don't know ... I guess I'm looking for new clues ...

Keren's been helping me look for a place. Her friend is a realtor who explained to me that the housing market has slowed down significantly during the past few months. At least she's honest. Yes, I'm going to move. I'm looking around at different places in the area, I like the city where I live, but I definitely need a secure place, a bunker would be more like it.

I like my neighborhood, it's a great place to live, there's small mom and pop stores and cafes, a local record shop, video stores ... it's a nice place, so if I can find a place that has a security gate i.e. underground parking, security guard, that would be great.

If I can make some money off the sale of my home then I can afford something small. I need room for my camera equipment and books.

I should move into a warehouse if it was legal. If there was a warehouse that was for sale ... but I can only imagine what kind of area it must be in ... pollution, fumes from nearby factories ... crime.

Business has been picking up, especially now that I can drive. But I try to avoid the freeway at all cost. I have to take it a step at a time.

Keren is still upset that I bought the Range Rover, but I do feel safe in it. Whenever we have to drive anywhere we take her car.

A reader asked me how I retrieved my tape back from Keren. Well ... it wasn't easy, but Keren is a kind person. After 5 minutes she cooled down and picked me up. The tape was still rolling ... but we didn't talk for the drive back (20 minutes).

I would never hurt Keren's feelings. She's been so helpful and I appreciate everything that she's done for me. I can't express how much I depend on her.

Hopefully everything will work out. I'm listing my house at a reasonable price. I'm not asking an arm and a leg for it. I'm a realistic person. But I'm definitely not looking forward to moving!

The last time I moved was 7 years ago and that was from London! I was exhausted for months!

SET ABLAZE - 4/15/07

SET ABLAZE!

This image was recorded on my surveillance cameras. I was shocked to find out that a car thief picked my driveway to abandon the stolen car. I was equally disturbed to find him hacking the car with an ax, then setting it ablaze! The car thief then smashed the surveillance camera with his fists.

The part that disturbs me the most is when the police handed me a photo of the 23 image. They have no clues, but they are working on it.

I've had enough. I want to move. I'm going to see a realtor and put my house on the market, but considering how homes are no longer selling like they once were, I'm worried. But I need to move. I don't know how these people are finding out where I live, but I need to find somewhere safe as soon as possible.

'Buying Power'

I bought a new SUV today ... a Supercharged 2007 Range Rover.

It's powered by a 400-hp 4.2 litre Supercharged V8. It's built like a tank.

I told Keren I didn't want to be driving around in a small car ... I don't feel safe.

I have to admit I felt a bit guilty about driving a gas guzzling truck that only gets 13 miles per gallon, but it makes me feel confident when I'm behind the wheel. Safety is a priority with me. I can live with the high gas bills.

So please don't send me any death threats you eco terrorists.

The truck is so high I can see the top of Mount Everest from where I'm sitting.

If anyone hits me they're dead.

It's an amazing piece of machinery.

I plan to visit the accident site soon. I don't know how I'm going to feel when I get there.

It's been on my mind constantly. I guess it's something I have to deal with.

Patient O.T. - 3/30/07

PATIENT O.T
CELL BLOCK 'Y'

Justizvollzugsanstalt Stuttgart-Stammheim

A very strange video. I believe that this is real.

The doctor (prison Psychiatrist) sent me a very detailed email. Apparently Patient 'O.T.' spent time in an asylum after the accident. Before the accident he led a normal life as an economics student.

Excerpt from the email:

'The Patient was missing for 3 days. This was confirmed by his family and the authorities. A missing person's report was filed. Patient O.T. regained consciousness a week later. His injuries were shockingly similar to yours. Recent surgery in the past 72 hours. Body injuries unrelated to the accident. A photo of the number 23 found at the accident site'.

'A few months after the accident, the Patient had delusions that he was a member of the Red Faction Army (RFA). He was convinced that the (Deutschland) 'right wing' Government was behind the accident. Patient O.T. suffering from paranoia and schizophrenia, attacked several Psychiatrists. After the Patient escaped, he set off several homemade bombs at the offices of mental health groups'.

The email totals 7 pages. I will post the rest of the letter in the future.

BLOGGING AS THERAPY?

While I was recuperating in the hospital I read an article from a therapist who claimed that blogging is good for people who are in 'times of crisis'. It's the ultimate diary, albeit it's also read by thousands of people.

Has blogging helped me at all? In certain ways yes. I've been corresponding with intelligent and caring people. i.e. Keren, also, hello to Ratopia, Earlywyrm, Alien, etc.

As far as Roy and Richard (The Paranormal Videographer) goes. I'm still on the fence.

There are people who have been accusing me as someone who is 'Seeking attention'. If I were, then why would I filter my face and voice? If I were the type of person who wanted to 'be in the public eye', I would plaster my unfiltered face and unaltered voice all over the internet!

Blogging is a strange experience!

'The Paranormal Videographer'

Another video from a reader. Is he a complete nutter? For a 'professional' videographer the audio is horrible. Tons of audio drop outs. But there are few things which he said which intrigues me. Mainly his car accident in Germany. The sighting of the number 23.

Keren and I saw 'The Number 23' in the theatre last week. What a joke, utterly horrible, absolute rubbish. Bollocks I say. The filmmakers said nothing about William S. Burroughs, who really noticed the 23rd Enigma. Just another stupid and wasteful Hollywood piece of cardboard cut out trash. I did get a good nap though. But not at the expense of $10.00 per ticket!

Back to Richard (the Paranormal Videographer) I appreciate that you sent me the video, but I hope you will be able to tell something which is relevant to the accident.

I hope this isn't a trend where I'm going to be receiving dozens of videos a week.

Fix your audio mate!

DEATH THREAT STALKER

Death threat stalker

Who is this person? What do they want?

Before the accident I hid surveillance cameras around my neighborhood. I did it as an ethnographic film experiment. I wanted to treat the film as an ongoing 'hidden security camera' project. My ultimate goal was to have other ethnographic filmmakers around the world hide hidden surveillance cameras where they live and have a web page where the entire world can be seen at once.

Every event, every and anything that takes place can be recorded for eternity.

It was just an idea.

But what confuses me is how the person in the video knew what neighborhood I live in. And how this person knew where I hid the camera. Is this person behind the accident?

I need to know.

I've received dozens of emails telling me how cruel and insensitive I've been to Keren on Valentine's Day. Yes, I agree. I have been very selfish and angry towards her. She's been very helpful and look how I treated her.

Being the ill mannered boor I am, I realized the errors of my way and I brought a box of chocolates and a bouquet of flowers. I took her to a nice intimate cafe for dinner.

Keren has been the light in my months of darkness. I'm very happy that she's in my life. Thanks to Keren I've slowly been able to get behind the wheel of a car. I'm taking it step by step, but with her help I'm confident that I'll be able to drive by myself soon.

Thank you Keren and thank you to the reader of the blog.

MAN + A WOMAN ARGUE ON VALENTINE'S DAY

Add to My Profile | More Videos


FEB. 14TH VALENTINE'S DAY.

What I did on the most romantic day of the year:

Keren took me out for a drive in her car, early this morning. Very early - 5 am. She forced me to drive. The last time I was behind the wheel was on the night of Dec. 23 2005.

It was good that we went driving very early in the morning. Less nutters on the road.

Needless to say I was very nervous. We argued.

I was nervous driving, sort of like riding a bike for the first time. I was awful behind the wheel and to Keren as well.

Well, I grumbled and moaned. Keren was a trooper.

I forgot it was Valentine's Day until Keren dropped me off. I didn't say anything. She looked sad and sped off.

I looked at the newspaper and read the date.

I have to buy Keren flowers and a box of chocolates.

I'm a true romantic.
