  1. The eyes of the world are all going to be on Dallas starting on the 23rd!. I’m sure it is going to be a very exciting and profitable time for you.

    • Well, I don’t know how profitable it will be, but it will certainly be a bit of an adventure… and a lot of fun too! I’m starting to get excited, and a little nervous…

      Hey, thank you both too for always being the first person to “like” a story I post. You’re always quick on the draw!!

      • We are going to Italy with two of our best new friends. In order to do this I work at my computer from early morning until midnight most days. Dale installed a gmail notifier on my computer that has a pop up and a voice announcement that “You have Mail”! I have enjoyed following your exploits over the last year and a half and am always excited to see a new “PGS” email announced.

        • So, Lynda, when you and Dale come to visit here in Sydney (remember I have a guest room ready to go any time!), can I borrow Dale for a little while to set up my computer? Please, Please, Pretty, Please?? 🙂 Britta

            We didn’t grow up with computers and I am still “stuck” in the dark ages. Dale however, used to work with some much younger people that taught him a lot. He has been able to do things that the computer store and sites say is not possible. I’m lucky! Would love to come to Australia. If we ever get there, he would be happy to help out!

  4. Hi Bill and Jen –
    FANTASTIC article! I hope that you receive a ton of positive feedback and further interest in the film from investors as a result of it. All your hard work is starting to see results.

  5. Good evening
    Just finished work and about to go to bed. I guess I have to stay up for awhile longer though as Rick Steves is coming on with a travel show on the Camino. Over the Pyrenees with a stop in Pamplona and all the way to Santiago. I think he does it by car though. Still will be interesting to relive a bit of the Camino.
    Sure wish Dallas was closer to Seattle than 2200 miles each way. We miss you.
    Read your mom’s book over the last couple days. I cannot believe the research that was involved. She is meticulous! Enjoyed the book very much.
    Lots of hugs from us to you and Jen

    • Dear Lynda, how wonderful of you to read my mum’s book – thank you! I’ll tell her what you said. She’ll be delighted. Hey can I ask a favour – could you write up a review on Amazon? My mum would be thrilled to bits if you did. Hope by now though you’re fast asleep – it’s very late there!

      • Dear Bill,
        I already wrote a review on Amazon this afternoon. Gave her five stars.
        It’s almost two in the morning but we are watching a travel show on the Camino.

        • Oh Lynda aren’t you sweet – thank you! I hope the tv show is good. Nothing can compare though to being there for real. And Assisi will be even better!! Say hello to Dale for me – and give hi a dig in the ribs to wake him up!

  6. Bill, the story says you will carry no money. How will you pay for your cheap motel? How will you eat? Will you have other people with you? If so, where will they stay? Questions. But I’m an ex- newspaper editor

    • Patrick – good and relevant questions!

      The astrologer said that my wife can carry the money. She will dole out the daily stipend, and pay for the cheap motel. She will stay in a separate room. I don’t want her muscling in on my cosmic rays!!

      • Hmm… Not quite as destitute we readers on here might have feared then, Bill.
        So Bill, in fact you will in fact, have all the money you actually need – through your wife’s purse. And you won’t have to wonder

        Bill, I see this as some kind of foolish, quixotic nonsense here.

        You will not be, as you admit – living pennylesly on nothing. Not for a second. Your wife will, in effect, have the financial answer to everything, And quite right too.
        Well I recon that puts a different spin on things, Bill. By no means what is suggested.

        Whether or not you will be able to eat each day, or die of starvation – are not the options you imply, because your wife will simply pick up the tab. You might as well be Bill Gates, might you not?
        And you won’t have to worry about how you will pay the motel bill. She will do it.
        …Unlike the guys under the bridge who have no such backup resources.
        You haven’t really got a single worry in the world, have you?
        Still, OK. What the hell.
        ..But don’t get me wrong – I personally hope you do become fabulously rich, even though it might make you a less nice person, if that is possible.
        You are already fabulously rich, as I am myself, although I have have very few material objects of “value”, except a nice house and a shabby but workable old car.
        Six wonderful dogs, though.
        And nothing would persuade me to leave here (Moratinos) for
        anywhere else in the world, unless it was absolutely essential. What for?
        Not for all the dollars in the world. What would I do with all that money, anyway?
        I don’t care what you do, but we should get it straight, shouldn’t we?
        I wouldn’t go near Dallas on a bet. A boring, ugly and hideous place. Even on the day after the anniversary of JFK’s murder. Particularly then. I suspect. But I follow your intuitive road (and your wife’s) to metaphysical disaster – with horrified fascination.
        But then, I’m an Agnostic, as well as a Sceptic, so I might be totally wrong. Usually am.

        Good luck from a sceptical cynic.

        • Patrick – you’ve got it wrong. The astrologer didn’t say I couldn’t have any money, he said I couldn’t CARRY any money. Big difference.

          He said that my wife could carry the money, and dole out what was needed, when it was needed. And let me tell you, she is a tightwad.

          But I have to stay in cheap digs and eat cheap food. And he said in three days, things might change, and people will offer me better accommodation and food.

          He said this is an experiment. He didn’t say I had to suffer. This is about changed circumstances. And ultimately, this is about being in Dallas at that optimal time to take in the cosmic rays.
