"Blair Newman"looked LIKE
he stuck not ONE but TWO
"fingers in a light socket"
OR
Combed his hair with a
"MixMaster"
it IS "entirely" possible
that HE, Bill Etra, and
Trip Hawkinshave
IQ
of
185
is best described as
"a fast boat on the ocean without a RUDDER" !
basically in DC
grew UP without a "father"
if you meet his Mother
you will "understand"
Howard Rheingoldin his "definitive" book
that I'd SAY
"Kicked up the Internet"
BIGTIME
is in "part" dedicated to Blair
David Newman and I sat down with him at the IKON Cafe in SFO
and the FIRST think I said to Howard WAS
"You really....'got" Blair down PAT" !
Howard "lit UP" and breathed a "humoungous" SIGH and said
You are the ONLY ONE who has said ANYTHING 'positive'
about what I said about Blair
EVERYBODY had kicked me in the Butt
for what I wrote about him
I then replied
Then they DON"T KNOW SHIT !about Blair !!!
Blair "unsuccessfully" tried to take his own life 20 times
he was
"successful" ?
the 21st
At the "funeral" David Newman and I sat next to each other
I thought I was "all cried OUT"
BUT
when the "Hammond B-3" started playing the
"Funeral DURGE"
I "lost" IT
suddenly there is a "heavy hand" on my left shoulder
that "instantly" calmed me down
and I stopped crying
when I turned and looked UP
it was
"Trip"
funny thing IS
the place was "packed"
and as if by "magic"
there's ROOM to my left
for Trip
afterwards
as David and I were walking out
through a tin crack in a door
I spotted "Mrs. Newman"
so I immediately opened the door
and said
Hi Mrs. Newman, you remember me
but I want to "introduce" you TO
another
"Newman"
AS David as my "witness" she said as we left
"I'm almost ashamed to say this BUT
NOW I feel......GOOD"
YES I DO
"have"
THAT
effect,affect,infect
on
"People"
In LIFE
as in "politics"
POWER
and
FAME
true "Power"
sits always
"behind the throne"
such as it WAS
with Blair Newman
"Microsoft,Apple,Electronic Arts,etc.
I had coined Electronic Graphic Arts
and at the US Festival
Steve Jobs asked me to come a day "early"
THANK U STEVE
AS
I rented 3 of the biggest baddest Winebagos
and
A VV Employee had a "SkewBus" to boot
so when WE got there
NOBODY was there
except the "Setup" crew
so growing up "native" style
Trip told me he was "dropping" the G
and calling his new company
"Electronic Arts"
ONLY ONE "degree" of separation !!!
My girlfriend I brought WEST from Boston was
"Sherrie Prisbe"
whose Boyfriend at YALE was
"Bing Gordon"
who then became
Trip Hawkins roomate
at Stanford Business School
and then Trip made HIM "President"
of
"Electronic Arts"
NO, I'm NO making this UP !!!
( HEE,Hee,he ! )
What people DO NOT KNOW IS
Blair got Matsushita
to "cough UP"
$ 100 Million IN usd
( back when our money was not "TOILET PAPER" for Europe )
Blair, Trip, and Chuck Peddle
who "ripped" OFF the 6800 design
from Motorola
and did the 6502
I was the "necessary" componet
as I had set UP the WORLD
"Distribution Network"
for
"Microcomputers"
EVERYONE
sold Cromemco at the "Top"
and
"Apple"
at the Bottom
for 18 months
Steve Jobs knew I was "avoiding" him
the the
Blair brought ME
Nov. 1975 ?
Harvard Biz Skewl year
at 2 weeks he came 2 me...said
"The World NEEDZ a General purpose X-Y
"Matrix Manipulator"
and went OFF 2 our Dec-10 to MAKE IT so
where he met Bill Gates
"despondent" had not YET "dropped" out...
was a "sophomore"
"across the river" Charles
BUT
from a "wealthy" Seattle family
was worried about being "disowned" IF he "dropped OUT of Harvard"
SO
Blair "recruited" ME to "convince" him otherwise
SO
I "fall by" to meet this "forlorn" SOUL
BUT
I just wave and motion for Blair to "come Hither"
I say EXACTLY THIS to Blair
"IF You me he...ever AGAIN....
with our "collective" ... EGO's ?
coincide on ONE spot on the planet
there WILL BE
a "meltdown" !
SO
I just waved and moved ON
BUT
Billy G can check his phone records
ThursmFri,Sat,Sunday
at the "Final Stretch" of the IBM deal
at 2:30 to 4:30 AM
Blair was on BG's apt phone 2 ME
( appeals to me ..can U "stop" him from sighning this IBM deal )
"non-exclusive"
he and Blair were 4 4 days "holed" up in an Apt.
"IF U think IBM would DO an 'exclusive" with U
You must BE on Drugs
( Blair found Trip @Stanford Biz Skewl, TH wrote the "definitive" projection
on the PC Biz ! hmmm 1978 ? )
there was
ONLY
ONE
"
Blair Newman"
