Mining the Memes: Bad programming by the DMV…

Page 37 - Chapter 4 – Some tips to prevent drowsy driving.

Travel at times when you are normally awake. Our bodies want to rest between midnight and 6AM and then again between I and 3 PM.

People project.   This means that someone who needs to be on the highway between 1 and 3 PM might project this programming onto another and that person could become drowsy under the wheel of an automobile.   This is stated in a way that will program its reader to actually be sleepy during the stated times rather than instructing the driver to  be alert at all times while driving and to be well rested before getting under the wheel, mainly because most people who drive want to and will obey the rules for driving and the laws of the road.

This was part of my problem while I was homeless but did have an automobile, I lived in for 7 months.   I was physically exhausted but found myself driving around at night from 10PM to 12 PM the next day.   I was so exhausted I would pull off the road but never could sleep, then I tried driving but I would get so sleepy ( I am guessing someone I am connected to woke up) I would have to stop.  This went on until 1996.

Three Faces of Eve…

…while in college I drank a bottle of Champagne and kept the bottle, this particular day I was upset and threw the bottle in the sink, then took a piece of the glass and tried to cut myself…I noted before and after the event that I was not emotionally distraught or so upset as to want to hurt myself.  I had taken an English course and Edgar Alan Poe was talked about in the class. 

Cos something's wrong.
- You think so?
- Well, she tried to kill herself last night.
Something's wrong somewhere.
- How did she try to kill herself?
- With a razor blade.
She's feeling awfully low,
and when I got what she had in her mind,
it scared me half to death.
Cos you know, if somebody
didn't stop her, l'd be gone too.
- Go on.
- Well, wasn't anybody else there but me.
So when she went in the bathroom
and she locked the door... Look.
She made one slash and then I got out
and I made her drop the blade and...
I got it and threw it away.
But it was a close call.
- Do you think she meant it?
- I know she meant it.
I wouldn't have meant it.
I might be tryin' to scare somebody
or fool 'em or somethin',
but I wouldn't go that far.
- I understand.
- But she was really levelling.
She really was gonna kill herself
if I hadn't stopped her.
When you said there was
something wrong somewhere,
did you mean something more
than the effort to kill herself?
- I sure did.
- What?
Now l'm havin' blackout spells too.
You mean lapses of time when
you don't remember what's happened?
And let me tell you, it scares me, too.

John Parke Custis – cussed us…

John Parke Custis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I wrote this March of 2000 and 9 years later Dishonored Lady was found to be the source of the accident…

CADD: Children Against Drunk Driving

Henry pulls on his coat and heads toward the front door, "I’m going out for awhile Jan". "Ok Henry, when will you be back", Jan asks. "In a couple of hours"! "Can we go daddy", Kate asks. Yea, Martha yells, "I wanna go to daddy".

"Yea, yea, ok, you can go too". "Come on girls, let’s hit the road". The girls climb into the back seat of the car and off they go.

Minutes later they arrive in front of Henry’s favorite pub. "Where are we daddy", Martha asked. "I have to go in here for a minute girls", Henry replied. "You wait here in the car and don’t get out, do you understand"? "Yes sir", the girls chimed. The minutes become hours. "What’s taking so long", Martha asked Kate. "I don’t know, what do you think I am, a genius or something", Kate retorted. "Well I am going to go see what Daddy is doing", Martha replied. "No", Kate ordered, "you know what daddy said". "I’m bigger, I’ll go see, you stay here". "I wanna go too", Martha whined. She started to cry. "Ok, ok, we can go together", Kate cajoled her sister, "stay behind me, ok?" "Ok", Martha whimpered. Kate reluctantly pushes the front seat up and opens the door of the pink dodge. Her black patent leather shoes glisten in the sunlight as her feet hit the pavement. Martha is in pursuit. Just as they reach the entrance to the pub, the door swings open and out steps their father. Kate and Martha freeze. "What are you two doing out of the car"? "I thought I told you to stay in the car", Henry slurred. Henry had more than a few drinks in the pub. Kate says angrily, "you were taking so long", "we want to go home"! "Ok, ok", Henry murmured, "get in the car". The girls run back to the car and climb into the back seat again.

Everything was fine until they turned into the new housing development where they had moved a few years earlier. The road curved sharply to the right, but Henry didn’t make the turn in time and drove onto the curb on the other side of the street and crashed into the light pole. The girls were thrown into the front seat of the car from the impact. Henry laughed a drunken laugh and started to back the car up. "Stop the car", Kate said. Kate and Martha were not hurt but more frightened than anything. Kate glared at her father. She was furious. She grabbed Martha by the hand, "come on lets get out". They climbed out of the car and walked home. They were lucky.©

"If you prick us do we not bleed? If you tickle us do we not laugh? If you poison us do we not die? And if you wrong us shall we not revenge?

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) The Merchant of Venice

One of my first more serious pieces of writing…

Carom – September 9, 2004

Frank and Grace are a successful professional couple. They live in posh, North Carolina suburbia. Frank had been a successful screenwriter, until his dreadful accident. After years of constantly readjusting his life, he was trying to make a comeback. Grace is an internationally recognized decorator and Frank's wife, best friend and lover.

They are relaxing by the pool as his story unfolds…

Frank stretches his long muscular arm out to reach for Grace and his chair leans a little too far and Frank falls to the ground. "Oh god", half laughing, "Frank, are you okay", Grace chides. Frank’s face was red with embarrassment. "Damn". "Yes, I’m okay". "Should I call for help"? "No", he snapped, "just give me your hand"! Grace stood and extended her hand, knowing she could offer little help. Fortunately for her, he was still a strong man. He managed to get to his feet and grappled for his chair. "Where’s my cane"? "Here honey". She gives Frank his cane. He places it beside his chair and sits down again. Grace swings her long slender legs over Frank’s chair and softly massages Frank’s muscular arms. "Are you sure you’re ok sweetheart"? Frank takes her hand. "Yes, I think so, thank you". "Hey, I’m sorry I yelled at you". "It wasn’t your fault". Grace kisses his forehead, "it’s ok". "I’m going upstairs now, to get ready for the party". "Fine, I’ll be along in a minute, I want to listen to my speech once more". Frank fumbles for the tape player". I don’t think you have time Frank, guests will be here soon". Grace stands to leave. "Well, just give me a minute". "I’ll be along". Sauntering toward the house she replies, "Okay, don’t drag your feet". He clicks the play button on the tape player. Once Grace reaches their bedroom, she goes to the window to check on Frank. Leaning outside, she urges him to come in. "Frank darling, you need to get with it". "It’s getting late". Frank looks up, "I hear you Grace". "I’m on my way". He reaches for his cane, shuts off the tape player and heads toward the house. Grace listens for the sound of the gold metal tip of his cane tapping on the hardwood floor. Frank stumbles on the stairs before he reaches their bedroom. Grace often had to stop herself from impulsively running to his aid, because he wanted to be as independent as possible. An hour passes.

Frank and Grace are dressed for the party. Frank checks his tie. "This thing is choking me, Grace". "I’m sorry sweetheart, let me see if I can loosen it a little". Grace tries to adjust his bow tie. Frank slips his arms around Grace’s svelte waist. Her warm slender body responds. She smiles and surrenders to his passionate kiss. Then she gently nudges Frank away; "we don’t have time Frank. "Yes we do". "But we’re already dressed". "So, we can dress again". "No", she responds firmly and insists they wait until after the party. He acquiesces.

The doorbell rings. Grace is putting on her earrings, "I’ll get that". "Alright, I’ll be down in a minute". "Oh, give me one last going over"! "Sure". Grace brushes the shoulder of Frank’s jacket. "You look handsome, my darling". "They’re going to love your movie, don’t worry". "Thanks". "Now let me see, are you…?" Frank gently caresses Grace’s shoulders, neck, and firm hips. "Hmmm, everything seems to be in perfect order here". "You know this is as much your night, as mine Grace"! "I mean it"; "I couldn’t have done it without you". Grace gives Frank a final kiss, "well, maybe, but you did all of the work Frank". "I have to get the door, people are waiting". "See you downstairs". "I’m right behind you babe". He shuts off the light, and grabs his cane from the corner. Downstairs Grace greets several guests. Frank walks to his study and sits briefly at his desk. He runs his fingers across the keys of his typewriter. "I hope they like my work". Frank recalls the difficult days spent writing the movie, his first, since the accident that left him blind. It happened Thanksgiving Day...

Several more guests arrive. Suddenly a light rapping sound returns Frank to his room and his typewriter. Grace is standing in the doorway. "Grace?" "Is that you?" "Yes," she whispers. "Sorry. "I was thinking back about the accident". "Is it time"? Many guests have gathered together at the foot of the stairs. "Yes, it’s time darling". Frank sighs. "Is my producer here yet?" "Yes dear, they are all waiting". Grace takes Frank by the arm and together they descend upon the group. As they near the end of the stairs, everyone begins to applaud. With a sigh of relief, Frank managed a big smile, he could finally relax for the first time in months. Grace gently squeezes his arm and whispers, "they love you Frank and so do I". "I’m finally back", he thought to himself. "I’m finally back". The End.©

  64. Verbal behavior has this kind of independent status when it is in transmission between speaker and listener—for example, when it is the “information” passing over a telephone wire or between writer and reader in the form of a text. Until fairly recently, linguistics and literary criticism confined themselves almost exclusively to the analyses of written records. If these had any meaning, it was the meaning for the reader, since the circumstances under which the behavior had been produced by the writer had been forgotten, if they were ever known. The availability of verbal behavior in this apparently objective form has caused a great deal of trouble. By dividing such records into words and sentences without regard to the conditions under which the behavior was emitted, we neglect the meaning for the speaker or writer, and almost half the field of verbal behavior therefore escapes attention. Worse still, bits of recorded speech are moved about to compose new “sentences,” which are then analyzed for their truth or falsity (in terms of their effect on a reader or listener), although they were never generated by a speaker. Both logician and linguist tend to create new sentences in this way, which they then treat as if they were the records of emitted verbal behavior. If we take the sentence “The sun is a star” and put the word “not” in the proper place, weRead more at location 1336

  5. Franklin himself was certainly a master of very indirect suggestion, and the tactful handling of objections, as anyone who has read his autobiography knows.  He used his skills, which were quite similar to NLP, to work his way into the French court—and into the beds of a number of French (and, evidently, American, and English) women, which seems to have been a favorite hobby of his when he was not fomenting revolution, printing books, inventing iron stoves and lightning rods and bifocal glasses, or flying kites in thunderstorms.  Quite a guy, that Ben. As he said,Read more at location 927

  7. Theodore X. Barber was a researcher and psychologist who concluded that the power of suggestion, without induction of any formal trance, worked almost as well as hypnotism on about 20% of the population, while about 25% had no reaction at all, and 2% to 4% were especially responsive. One of his experiments was to go door to door, and suggest sleepiness to people, without the swinging watches and such that hypnotists of the 1960s commonly used.Read more at location 1051
  8. Note: James Braid knew this in the mid 1800's when he noted, when he blinked at a patient, the patient would a few minutes later blink back. Children do it unconsciously, they don't know why they are doing it. Edit
  9. We always are anchoring things, usually without knowing it.  We go to a funeral, and we go up to the family, and we give them a hug.  Usually, a hug is a good anchor.  But if you are hugged in the presence of the corpse of somebody you love, a hug may become a negative anchor.  Sometimes, husbands and wives hug each other when everything is going badly, and not enough when things are going well.  After a while, they don’t want the other one to touch them.Read more at location 1921
  10. Note: MT used this on me at GNC. Edit
  11. So, you want to find out how they think, and then tell them things that sound like things they think. You can do that by asking questions that will force them to think things for themselves; anything people imagine or remember, even if you have prompted it, they will believe is their own thought. “Can you remember a time when you could feel really good about something you bought?” (Subtly point to yourself or your client when you do this.) The whole embedded command technology is a way to do this:  you are planting thoughts in people's heads. You also want to make your statements appeal to the senses the person relies on, e.g., sight, sound, and so on.  That way, it sounds like their thoughts.Read more at location 2024
  12. Note: Recognize these tactics Edit
  13. Submodalities are the variations in modalities. A visual picture is color or black-and-white, and vibrant colors or subdued colors. Kinesthetic submodalities are heavy or light, warm or cold. Sound is loud, soft, and so on. Sometimes you cross modalities. You may say—this is called synesthesia—a sound is sweet, colors are heavy.Read more at location 2066
  14. Note: The Green in the Optimum protein was a negative for me so he started selling me other protein powders with different colors. I did buy several of the optimum brands likely because the containers had green in them, I even purchased a container of the serious mass likely because it had two shades of green one being a much lighter shade. I finally caught on to it after I completed my work on the article. The novelist of Shades of Gray is trying to start the same technique. Edit
  15. Sometimes, rarely, but it happens, you want to get negative rapport. You can break up a meeting by having rapport and then breaking it, by stopping the rhythmic sync you have with other people. Or you can pick an unpopular person in a large group and really make them hate you.  Other customers, who will not want to agree with that person, may be more inclined to vote buy from you because they hate that customer. This is, of course, a high risk tactic.Read more at location 2095
  16. Note: This worked in my favor as opposed to MT's. Edit
  17. Rapport is the most important single thing to achieve to be able to exert influence.  The whole idea is to build your rapport with a customers, and break your competitor’s rapport.  People don’t like to see direct attacks. You can do it, but it’s often something that makes people dislike you. You may therefore consider it wise to use indirect attacks. Demosthenes found that just saying good things about your side isn’t enough;  you have to make some attacks on the other side. Great orators since have found that to be true.  It’s a dilemma: you need to attack, but you don’t want people to get disgusted with you for attacking.Read more at location 2109
  18. Note: A Southern Season is GNC's competitor where I am concerned. They both vie for my money. I've heard MT doing this at night while I am sleeping. I know he has tried to program me numeorus times to buy protein. This made me think the mental programming I created didn't come from me but actually came from some novelist of marketer trying to manange my behavior. I thought I created it. Edit
  19. Patterns are structures of language that you use to create a mental state.  When you were in school, you learned patterns of language.  The language patterns that you used in school were things like a simple sentence, a complex sentence, a compound sentence, a prepositional phrase, and so on.  They are simply structures, which are available to you to build whatever sentences that you wish.  Patterns in NLP are like that, except that the patterns are little different.  Patterns are not rules, they are just examples.  Some of the patterns sound strange, but you will find that in many cases the stranger these pattern sound, the more powerful they are.  Some patterns are in the form of metaphor. Ross Jeffries is a master at this.Read more at location 2300
  20. Note: This they clearly used to get me to start the habit of going to the mall, with that little cup of free coffee and then they run the guilt trip about shelling out free coffee or giving good advice or loaning me a book, etc. They've been doing with this, "You owe me $50, the amount of MT's monthly bonus. Edit
  21. Erickson used to talk to people, and look for something that looked a little like trance, and say softly, “That’s it.” This is dog training, behavior reinforcement, into trance. When you see a customer giving a blank stare, you might nod, or smile or say, “That’s it,” or “That’s right.”   Then you have the customer going into trance, and you hit him with repeated embedded commands.Read more at location 2319
  22. Note: HM or some of her help has been doing this to me at night. I've heard them, I made a point of staying awake to find out what they were saying to me and I've been catching this. Edit
  23. The unconscious communicates largely in symbols. That is why you have dreams. If you are not familiar with this concept, I highly recommend reading Carl Jung’s Man And His Symbols. Treat yourself to the large hardbound edition, not the little paperback. The large hardbound edition has color pictures, and in this case, they are important. When you make a symbol, manipulate it, strengthen it, and relate it to yourself, you can do very powerful things. A good symbol to start with is the customers order form.Read more at location 2365
  24. Note: No doubt this is why they put Night Stalker on TV. Fear tactics and the use of the cross... Edit
  25. A bind is a statement that links a cause to an effect. As you become aware of the powerful uses of this product we are presenting here, you will understand more and more the strength of this product. There isn’t necessarily a very good causal connection between the two things. This is discussed in much more detail in the sections on cause and effect patterns.Read more at location 2382
  26. Note: This is why we have cases of schizophrenia - the double bind...I see that I have done this with my blog...I discovered this in my own thinking based on dialogue I found from films... Edit
  27. Here is a form for a very effective suggestion:  “Whether you give an order for this product today, or whether you just decide to try this product in your business for a time, the important thing is that when you have this product that you can look back on in the years to come with pride for the good decision you make today for this enhancement to your business, because of all the reasons you can think of to do it.  Do you know that is how Andrew Carnegie got his reputation for good business decisions?” The last sentence, the question, gives amnesia for the suggestions. A double bind gives you two alternatives, which are really the same alternative, and then you add something to distract the consciousness, which is trying to figure out what the difference is between the alternatives.Read more at location 2395

I didn't realize how focusing on the past made me more vulnerable to suggestion or manipulation in the present. This is what BH did to me and how I ended up in Pitt Memorial Psychiatric facility. This makes me angry as hell. This is a kind of schizophrenia, not in the physiological sense but mental. Edit
  33. Some words are especially effective in inducing trance.  Words such as deeply, naturally, surprisingly and other such adverbs invite the psyche to go into an altered state. There are two kinds of trance words: words which are generally trance words, and words which are particular to an individual.  General trance words are things like imagine, visualize, remember, amazingly. These words cause you to look inside yourself and think of how it would be if the things you suggest were to take place. Specific trance words are specific to the individual. If you listen very closely to what people tell you, you will notice that they mean on certain words that are important to them; thoseRead more at location 2458

  36. Another of Erickson’s genius ideas was to communicate with the unconscious by interspersing the communication in a lot of other conversation, and emphasizing the words so that the unconscious, not the conscious, picks it up.  You can have several conversations going on at once:  one with the person’s conscious, and another one or two with the unconscious.  This way, you can get higher results with someone like Franz Mesmer. You mark off the words in italics, by tonality or whatever you’re physically doing, and what do you get?  Higher [hire] Franz Mesmer.  That’s a phonological ambiguity, too. You can use this to give suggestions to people, in a large meeting, in front of a hundred observers, or to a CEO in front of his entire board, and nobody will ever suspect.  But their unconscious will know. This is one of the most amazingly powerful and undetectable of Erickson’s techniques. With it, you can have several conversations going on at once with the audience’s unconscious:  you can mark out oneRead more at location 2532

Television didn't teach me to stop pulling my sister's hair, a habit I never had. In fact because of the Three Stooges I started pulling her hair. My mother had to pull my hair in order to stop it. We don't perceive pain through the television. If someone tells me something hurts, I can believe it or I can disbelieve it. If I disbelieve it I might set myself up to cause injury to myself. If I take the approach that I want to stay safe and healthy I will create that and it will involve learning what is healthy and safe. Then one might believe what those with more wisdom teach us. Those who have been injured, in jail, on the streets, etc, they have the wisdom and it isn't new, they likely learned it again because they failed to listen to others. Edit

One can become frivilous with one's own spending often getting into debt, thinking one has all kinds of money and even investments. These can be gross manipulations of the human mind and brain. For example, the speaker or writer telling you this might then ask, how would you go about making this $million? Then he has the advantage over my creativity and can rob my life of vital knowledge I created for my own benefit. Edit

This maps the sensation of hunger with verbal behavior, I am hungry. Then when we say I am hungry, we go and eat. One must be aware writers have used this verbal cue to feed the masses on content hardly helpful to staying alive physiologically while it may expand one's psychological awareness.

  193. Verbal behavior has this kind of independent status when it is in transmission between speaker and listener—for example, when it is the “information” passing over a telephone wire or between writer and reader in the form of a text. Until fairly recently, linguistics and literary criticism confined themselves almost exclusively to the analyses of written records. If these had any meaning, it was the meaning for the reader, since the circumstances under which the behavior had been produced by the writer had been forgotten, if they were ever known. The availability of verbal behavior in this apparently objective form has caused a great deal of trouble. By dividing such records into words and sentences without regard to the conditions under which the behavior was emitted, we neglect the meaning for the speaker or writer, and almost half the field of verbal behavior therefore escapes attention. Worse still, bits of recorded speech are moved about to compose new “sentences,” which are then analyzed for their truth or falsity (in terms of their effect on a reader or listener), although they were never generated by a speaker. Both logician and linguist tend to create new sentences in this way, which they then treat as if they were the records of emitted verbal behavior. If we take the sentence “The sun is a star” and put the word “not” in the proper place, weRead more at location 1336

It is very dangerous tinkering with the mind of another. It is best to teach them to manage their own brains and minds.

  216. Note: I disagree, this denies our capacity to evolve and become rational, civilized people and it is possible, we have taken the wrong approach to doing it. There is more money in making people believe they are violent and in need of telelvision's help in dissociating these problems, rather than programming man with civilized behavior. What bit of it we do see is mingled with violence. I understand the idea behind what they are attempting to do but they fail to recognize the power of the human duplicating machine in the world, the human brain and mind, especially in our youth when the brain is young. As far as I am concerned they are abusing those who view it and they aren't paying them what their synapses are worth for looking at it but they are making lots of money for themselves. Edit
