12/16/03 1:50 PM

I met Lonnie and his brother last summer. They were walking down the street pushing a lawn mower, and I asked them if they wanted to mow some lawns for me.
They did a good job that first day, while I watched them work.
The next day, I gave them a list of yards to cut, and Lonnie said he did the work, so I paid him, but when I checked the work hadn’t been done. So that $60 was the first theft.
That was also the first time I met person #4, one of Lonnie’s two sidekicks. #3 might have been there too.
The next day, I said I was busy (which I was) and didn’t have time for them.
They stole my lawn mower, a $260 6HP snapper from Walmart. Lonnie had some story
claiming the lawn mower had been stolen from them, and that they would pay me back for it.
Several days later, I heard that Lonnie had been arrested for breaking into his mom’s house and stealing stuff. This might have been the 202 Temple incident I heard about later.
He was on a month’s house arrest at 52 N Tacoma.
About a month later, he came to see me. He had a variety of stories trying to borrow or con me out of $60 which he said he needed to get a bus ticket to his father’s in Kentucky.
These included that he would sell me a gun he showed me. He also pretended to be suicidal, putting the gun barrel in his mouth. When none of this worked, he pulled the gun on me and took my wallet, with about $90. He said he was going to kill me, but instead ran out the front door, while I ran out the back.
I next saw him again in December.

Saturday Nov. (?) in the evening there was a knock on my door. I opened the door and was surprised to see Lonnie, with #4. He began to walk in the door, while making conversation. I pushed the door closed on him, and ran upstairs and called 911. As I came downstairs, he had walked in the back door. We talked, each aware that the other was lying. I said that this wasn’t good time, and suggested we talk outside.
Where he robbed me with a knife. He took 35$ from my pockets. He asked if I had called the cops. I said “yes, they’re on their way.” They ran. The police arrived 15 seconds later.
Officer 1 became overtly hostile after I declined to give a ssn, and treated the incident dismissively. He said that it would be about 10 days before a detective would be assigned. He gave a yellow card with the case ID. Officer 2 was more friendly, small talk about knowing my roommate’s sister. Was not involved in taking the report.

The next day, Sunday evening, I was sleeping or reading in bed when Lonnie, #3, #4, and a fourth person,
who I recognized by his voice as Lonnie’s brother (14 or so, may attend arsenal tech,
Lonnie’s stepfather’s son, last known residence 52 N Tacoma) walked up the stairs.
[details omitted in this draft – stressful -.]
They had taken me downstairs. Lonnie said he was going to “finish the job” – to kill me.
I began kicking the wall behind me, 3 times, and then twice more as they realized I was alerting my roommates on the south side of the house. They fled out the back door, while I yelled for Joell.
The cop was better this time. He seemed to take the incident seriously, and made a more detailed report. He gave some good practical advice about how to protect myself.
The next night they came back, but I was gone.
They broke the back window and opened the kitchen door. Joell heard them and called 911.
I returned briefly after thanksgiving in Philadelphia, arriving Saturday night. Tuesday evening I was sorting through some paperwork (looking for documents that might help me get my driver’s license) when I looked up and saw a person in a black ski mask holding a knife. We struggled for the knife, he ran. It may have been #3, but I cannot be sure. Cad: IPO 03119821 case #. I033361698
I got the distinct impression it was someone I would recognize. Too skinny to be Lonnie, too short to be #4, too muscular to be Lonnie’s brother. #3 Looks like a cowboy, or like someone from Kentucky or Appalachia, about 20, 5’6” to 5’10”. Black hair, shoulder length, maybe a mustache.
Known associates of Lonnie, they (3 + 4) may be implicated in a robbery at 202 Temple that I heard about from neighbors (a usually unreliable source) who have been seeing Lonnie around this summer – I had not told them of the earlier incident. I’m told that’s the incident that led to Lonnie’s house arrest.
A week later, there was evidence someone had entered the house via a window.
A week after that, Monday a week ago, someone tried to pry off the back lock from the inside.
That’s where things stand right now.
I am staying outside of town, and can be reached via 891-6664.
I attest that the above is true as far as I know.
Other details as they occur to me:
Lonnie says April Eubanks is his cousin. She is a former tenant of mine.
April is registered at the plasma center on Washington in Irvington.
Lonnie said his uncle may be buying 40 N Tacoma (one of the lots Lonnie mowed for me) at the tax sale. Formerly owned by the Indianapolis Peace and Justice Center.

16. Write a good song
17. Talk to Wayne about the show
18. Call Conan - Find Alyssa
19. Sell palm pilot on e-bay
20. Update blog

Number of things I did since July 19, 2003: 3
Guess which ones they were?

(pretend this is upside down) Answer: 1, 18, 20

I have been keeping to do lists ever since I was old enough to do. I remember I started them as a recommendation from an english teacher or guidance counselor. I can't help but think that if either of them had just done what they had written on their to do lists, none of this would even be happening right now.

I usually try to write things on my to do lists that I actually intend on doing. It hurts me too much when I write things down on the list and then I find a list crumpled up between a book and a shoe on the floor, and I read the list and I realize I wrote the list a year ago to the day and the only things that got done were done through inertia and the inevitability of life happening. (Refer to items 1, 9, 11, 13, 20.)

It's not really that great to write to do items that are going to happen whether you mean for them to or not, there's no achievement in that. Sometimes I write, do the dishes, and then a few months later, I do them, but it is somehow unfulfilling. On the list, it's a good idea to write goals that you would like to accomplish or things that you have been putting off. For example: Get through a phone call to mom without feeling irritated, or, Call mom.

Some people might think of to do lists as something that a business person or type A personality or organized douche-bag type would do. Not so. Though I am probably a little bit of all three of those
examples, I had a friend who was none of those who used to keep awesome to do lists. My friend was affectionately referred to by last name only. Masten was one of those kids that you knew would go no where in life, and that's exactly what he did, and he did it with such ferocious vigor, you can't help but love him even more. We shared an apartment in Augusta, Maine, back when I was 18 and he was just your basic run-of-the-mill loser. I was in college at University of Maine, and he decided he wanted to get his shit together, so he sat down to write a to do list one day. It looked like this:

1. wake up
2. get pills
3. buy weed
4. take nap

I think he even spelled it "by" weed. When my roommates and I found that list, we laughed so hard that he became our favorite person. It was too perfect.

If you're thinking about starting a to do list, now might be the perfect time. It's easy. All you need are the following materials:
Paper
Pen
TIP: A pencil or marker will do

Directions:
1.Write down the things you want to do in the order which you want to do them in.
2.Do those things
OR
2.Don't do those things*

*but now instead of mentally knowing you had things to do and feeling bad about not doing them, you have a written note to yourself as a reminder to continue being aloof.

Congratulations, you're one step closer to being less (or more) aloof. Carry the list in a place that you will remember to look at it, like your pocket or purse, or on the fridge. Try not to lose it. If you lose it, on your next list, be sure to write down not to lose the list. It's also fun sometimes to write as an item, do the things on this list.

If you can write a to do list and then do all the things on that list in that day or the next day, you are a better person than anyone in the world. Please go and pat yourself on the back. If you can't, don't feel bad, neither can I.

Citing a book of his, Mr. Posner continued: "I said what are needed are critical studies, as opposed to biographies. The relation between personal character and professional reputation is often nonexistent. People operate on different tracks. Very successful people, when you look at them, they very often turn out to be psychological basket cases. They were successful in part because they were driven by some deep personal insecurity."

motion to amend complaint
Come now plaintiffs by counsel and for their motion to amend complaint state as follows.
The complaint was filed 9/97 and a first amended complaint was filed 12/15/1997.
The state moved to dismiss. Dismissal was granted, but reversed.
A certified question ....
Currently this case is on hold at the Seventh Circuit awaiting response to a certified question, for which oral argument is scheduled 5/29/2003.
This motion does not require immediate action, but can be tabled until the case returns to the Seventh Circuit.
It is submitted at this time to provide advance notice to the parties.
The orginal and first amended complaints sought damages from county officiual in their personal capacities.
The district court dismissed on the basis that no constitutional violation had occurred.
The circuit court upheld the dismissal on the basis of qualified immunity and the unclear status of the law.
As a result, the county officials can be dismissed as to damage claims. The circuit did not rule as to whether or not the district was mistaken in holding no violation occurred, but see the discussion of standing and virginia booksellers.
Previously, since county officials were named in their personal and official capacities, there had been no need to name the county as a party. The county, however, lacks qualified immunity, and lacks eleventh amendment immunity. At this time plaintiffs move to add Vanderburgh County as a defendant.

]
email dan danny@dennysden.com
fold laundry - mostly done
coffee - done - that was an easy one :)
take out trash - done
shovel snow - done
attend to jack - not done yet
rewards of doing chores - found the sweater lindy made me.

my two tasks for the day were 1) do the rough draft - done, still needs work.
...damit! just lost 4 lines of text. hit some wrong button.
2) fold laundry. that means do 4 loads laundry from closet, sort into piles to hang up,
give away, put away, throw away, or stuff back into closet. sorted and second load is in, using delicate cycle. need more detergent and bleach. i'm about to go celebrate doing that much,
and then i'll set out some more chores. if i do more chores, and the weather is good, i could reward myself with a unicorn trip. which would throw off plasma schedule.
more chores:
make to do list.
update list of tasks for majors.
outline motion for injunction.
(i guess what interupted me was going for coffee? dunno. but i put more laundry in, hung up laundry, found hangers, put away dishes)
right i did the dishes today. that was twice in february i think.
other stuff to do: type up disney notes for blog.
make blog entry in main blog.
create some wwdn time to check on jyoti.

short list of letters to write
lindy - done
mom - put on line for printer, print tomorrow on way to plasma.

greyhound
chicago station manager

Thank you for your recent phone call (i have the feeling i've already written this one?)
I do not think, however, that you are taking this situation sufficiently seriously.
On November First 1992 at around 3 pm I was assaulted and battered - not beaten up, but touched in an offensive manner - by a security guard working under your direction, following your orders. I hold you personally responsible as well as greyhound.
These actions were illegal as well as tortious.
I have not yet reported the incident to the authorities. I'm hoping we can work it out.
I wrote to greyhound at the address you gave me seeking a refund of my $53.
All I got from them was a brushoff letter.
If I get my $53 back really quickly, I'll agree not to take it further.
I don't care whether you pay me personally or get greyhound to do it.
What happens next is if this second offer is also refused, the next letter will seek $500.
$53 + (235, my hourly rate, x 2 hours already spent) =523 rounded off to $500.
If that third offer is also rejected, and I have my attorneys file suit in Marion County Small Claims Court, it will be for $5000. If that suit is actively contested, i will transfer it to circuit court and seek $50,000. Let's settle this now for $53. Incidentally I won the case I went to Chicago for. That started out with a simple little disagreement like this one, and it took to 5 years to get it to the 7th circuit, but once I get on something I never let it go. I have not as yet sent out any press releases, but have been telling the story on the internet, at Wil Wheaton's site, Penn & Teller's site, and the Cyberia List.
As a result of the cyberia posting I've been contacted by John Gilmore, the plaintiff in
Gilmore v. Ashcroft, a case about airplane searches. Gilmore is a cofounder of EFF, the electronic frontier foundation, which litigates in these areas.
So if we can't settle this it has the potential to be somethng that could get bigger, to the point where there would be adverse publicity for greyhound, whether I ever won or lost in court.
