I didN'T CHOOSE IT. IT CHOSE ME.

… 

"Using NUMBERS, we can SOLVE the greatest 

MYSTERIES we know."

(--'NUMB3RS'-intro)

Honestly, it "BOGGLES MY mind" when/how people could 

POSSIBLY say that they "do NOT UNDERSTAND MATH"!  

"NUMBERS" are the UNIVERSAL-language.

Even IF I did NOT COMPREHEND English, ALOTTA 

Turkish & Spanish and "BITS & PIECES" of German & Latin, 

I'd STILL have my PROFESSORIAL-"grasp" of 

"NUMEROLOGY" on which to DEPEND.

…

When I started my MATH-tutoring service, I thought of HOW 

to explain my Miraculous Mathematical Mastery.  

"Alliteration aside."(--'Dodgeball')  I'd cite the protagonist of 

'NUMB3RS'.

"Please.  Understand that sometimes I caN'T CHOOSE what 

I work on.  I caN'T 'follow-through' on a 'line-of-thinking', just 

'cuz I WANT-to, or, or 'cuz it's needed.  I HAVE-TO work-on 

what's in my head.  And, right-NOW, THIS is what's 'IN MY 

HEAD':"

(--Charlie, 'NUMB3RS')

(WARNING!) So, I've EXCRETED FECAL-matter EIGHT 

different times in the last ~249.67 hours.  THAT's 

1 "Poop-Party" every ~31.2084 hours (= ~1.3007 days)

(… THIS is RELEVANT to my "REHABILITATION", 'cuz it 

refers to the "WORK" of MY "MUCH-MALIGNED" digestive 

system.  

… AND, it demonstrates that MY MENTAL-capabilities are

ALMOST "TOO HEIGHTENED"!)

…

ME--to ALL MY doubters, those PRONE to "NAIVETY" & 

those who've dismissed me as--upon hearing of my "T.B.I.--

"RETARDED", I state:

"FORGIVE me, if ALL my years of ADVANCED 'Applied 

MATHEMATICS take-ISSUE with THAT assessment."

(--Charlie, 'NUMB3RS')

(The "ABSENT-minded" government--to ME:

"Statistically," (& they--STUPIDLY--thought LITERALLY) 

"you're DEAD now.  You understand what that MEANS?!"  

(You were EJECTED-OUT the WINDOW of your speeding 

CAR on a busy HIGHWAY.)  The fact that you SURVIVED is 

an ANOMALY, & it's UNLIKELY to be the outcome of a 

SECOND such encounter."

(--Charlie, 'NUMB3RS')

(… Note to self: ALWAYS DOUBLE-check auto-repair "work".

NEVER trust "the WORD" of REPAIR-people.)

During my ~"FOUR YEAR STAY" at (HORRID) "FINR", 

there were ALOTTA UNNECESSARILY-RESTRICTIVE rules 

…monitored & enforced by ASTONISHINGLY-

INCOMPETENT employees.  

((… Sometimes, I'd just lie in my bed (& NOT sleep, 

UNFORTUNATELY), and CONTEMPLATE my EXISTENCE 

… in DREAD.))  

In HINDSIGHT, I feel:

"Well, SCREW the 'RULES'.  What's MORE IMPORTANT?"

(RESPECT or EMPLOYMENT?)

(--Alan Eppes, 'NUMB3RS')




My mom--to ME--about the extent of MY ENIGMATIC 

"T.B.I.":

"You know that it's considered 'UNSOLVABLE'?"

MY response:

"Well, certainly people who have FAILED to SOLVE it" 

(MY EX-doctors) "might THINK that."

(--Charlie, 'NUMB3RS')

So, I'm SUPPOSED-TO just KINDA "take it EASY" for a 

few days--with my NEW "G-tube".  (… Doctor's 

ORDERS) Ergo, I've been "playing" ALOTTA 

Minesweeper!

ME--to y'ALL: "You seen this game, (y'ALL)?  You've 

got to 'CLEAR' the MINES withOUT 'BLOWING any UP'.  

Each time you 'clear a square', a NUMERICAL-value is 

revealed.  … THAT NUMBER tells you EXACTLY how 

many squares containing 'MINES' are DIRECTLY-

ADJACENT to that square.  This allows you to 

PREDICT where the next 'MINE' will be located.  … 

THEN, the MORE boxes REVEALED, the MORE 

ACCURATELY one can PREDICT the LOCATION of the 

'MINES'.  …"

(--Charlie Eppes)

… 

THEN, there are the MORALS/LESSONS of Walt Disney films:

What I've LEARNED --

"Life's GREATEST 'treasures' are … FRIENDS."

(--'Aladdin')
(… Ergo, I ALWAYS encourage BUDDIES to visit me.)

"'CELEBRATE' what makes you UNIQUE."

(--'Beauty & the Beast') 

(… Thus, I've ALWAYS "TREASURED" math, sports, 

martial arts & logic.)

Tonight's MORAL

"EVERYTHING is NUMBERS."

(--Charlie, 'NUMB3RS')


… Ergo, am/was I the INSPIRATION/PREMISE for the 

film 'A Beautiful Mind'?!

(… My APOLOGIES to the late, GREAT John Nash.)
