You can't understand the present if you don't understand the past...

Illuminating anniversaries of this week:

September 22- In 1776, Nathan Hale is hanged by the British for spying on behalf of the American Revolutionaries.  In 1795, the first U.S. Gold Eagle was minted-- a 1/2 ounce coin valued at $10.  It takes around 1876.5 of today's (9-20-25) Federal Reserve "dollars" to equal the still-unvarying buying power of that 1/2 ounce of real money.

 

Anniversaries of interest for each day of this week will be found throughout the newsletter below.

 

NOTE: I don't even try to include in these anniversary compilations items involved in the "COVID-19" scam, hysteria and exploitation. There would be way too much to say about all that to suit this format. But find my summary of that history, and related observations posted throughout 2020 and 2021, here.

Charlie Kirk Was Killed For (If Not Directly By) Israel

...or so a solid body of evidence would seem to indicate.

CHARLIE KIRK HAD LATELY BECOME an existential threat to Israel (and a pain in the ass to Donald Trump and the Zionist appointees with which he is surrounded). Here is how that worked:

The attitude of young American adults today determines how successful Israel will be in maintaining its influence over American policy tomorrow.

Young Americans of neo-liberal political alignment already heavily disfavor Israel in particular and Zionism in general. Only young Americans of a conservative bent have continued to show significant support for Israel, and even within that demographic support has slipped to merely 50% at this point, after a 15-point drop over the last three years. (See the stats within the body of last edition's article concerning the fraudulent attack on TikTok and the First Amendment.)

Over the years Charlie Kirk had made himself hugely-influential with America's population of conservative-minded young adults. And he devoted much of that influence toward establishing or maintaining the support (or, at least, tolerance) amongst that group for the Zionist project. Indeed, it could be argued that the Zionist project relied most heavily on Kirk alone to hold the line against its otherwise diminishing support amongst America's incoming and activist electorate.

BUT KIRK'S POPULARITY was a two-edged sword for the Zionists. This became clear over the last few months, as Kirk began to recognize the moral depravity of Israel's treatment of captive Palestinians and the depth and breadth of Israeli mendacity on all subjects-- and to share these epiphanies with his followers. See here, here and here for details on some of these wake-up moments.

Suddenly, the highly useful Charlie Kirk had become the hugely dangerous Charlie Kirk. This new Charlie Kirk would lead tens of millions of young American conservatives away from the Christian Zionist fog of Scofield-distorted scripture and its message of Israel über alles. This new Charlie Kirk would instead lead these kids into the cold, clear light of reality by which the monstrousness of Israel's 20th Century origin and subsequent endlessly murderous duplicity and depravity stand plainly in view, however stomach-turning a sight it may be.

In short, Charlie Kirk, a modern-day Moses to the young American faithful, had begun to turn the path of his flock away from the Zionists. Had he been left alive to continue, his leadership would soon have ended all hope of Israel's ongoing, critically-important bleeding of the American people's blood, treasure and standing with the rest of the world on its behalf.

In short, the Zionist cabal's motive to kill Charlie Kirk is undeniable. Its willingness to do such a thing is also undeniable, as very capably articulated by the great George Galloway.

STANDING AGAINST THE FOREGOING ARGUMENT we have the risible official narrative of a random trans-fan of previously pristine history having suddenly decided, out of the blue and just a week or so prior, to skip past all the usual "gateway" criminal ramp-up and even simple political activism. Instead, this clean-cut Mormon kid, Tyler Robinson, son of a sheriff's deputy, decides to inaugurate his career with a broad-daylight first-degree murder.

To do so, we are given to understand, Robinson disassembled his grandfather's Mauser 30-06 and somehow concealed it on his person as he made his way through crowded and well-surveilled spaces on his way to a climb onto a roof. There, goes the story, Robinson reassembled the rifle, took position and fired a single round at Kirk.

Afterwards, carrying the still assembled rifle (now wrapped in a towel), Robinson drops down from the roof and makes his way to a wooded area. There he changes clothes and then makes his way to his car, leaving the rifle under a bush.

Then Robinson allegedly engaged in a text dialogue with his boyfriend/roommate (whom they both apparently pretend is Robinson's girlfriend/roommate), Lance Twiggs:

Robinson: drop what you are doing, look under my keyboard. [When the roommate looked under the keyboard, he allegedly found a note that allegedly read: “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it.” But the alleged note with that alleged statement is said by Kash Patel to have been destroyed before being actually seen by anyone else. I'm not kidding.]

Twiggs: What?????????????? You're joking, right????

Robinson: I am still ok my love, but am stuck in Orem for a little while longer yet. Shouldn't be long until I can come home, but I gotta grab my rifle still. To be honest I had hoped to keep this secret till I died of old age. I am sorry to involve you.

Twiggs: You weren't the one who did it, right????

Robinson: I am, I'm sorry.

Twiggs: I thought they caught the person?

Robinson: No, they grabbed some crazy old dude, then interrogated someone in similar clothing. I had planned to grab my rifle from my drop point shortly after, but most of that side of town got locked down. It's quiet, almost enough to get out, but there's one vehicle lingering.

Twiggs: Why?

Robinson: Why did I do it?

Twiggs: Yeah.

Robinson: I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can't be negotiated out. If I am able to grab my rifle unseen, I will have left no evidence. Going to attempt to retrieve it again, hopefully they have moved on. I haven't seen anything about them finding it.

Twiggs: How long have you been planning this?

Robinson: a bit over a week I believe. I can get close to it but there is a squad car parked right by it. I think they already swept that spot, but I don't wanna chance it.

Robinson: I'm wishing I had circled back and grabbed it as soon as I got to my vehicle... I'm worried what my old man would do if I didn't bring back grandpa's rifle... idek if it had a serial number, but it wouldn't trace to me. I worry about prints. I had to leave it in a bush where I changed outfits. Didn't have the ability or time to bring it with... I might have to abandon it and hope they don't find prints. How the fuck will I explain losing it to my old man...

only thing I left was the rifle wrapped in a towel...

remember how I was engraving bullets? The fuckin messages are mostly a big meme. If I see "notices bulge uwu" on Fox News I might have a stroke alright im gonna have to leave it. that really fucking sucks... judging from today I'd say grandpa's gun does just fine idk. I think that was a $2k scope ;-;

Robinson: delete this exchange.

Robinson: my dad wants photos of the rifle... he says grandpa wants to know who has what, the feds released a photo of the rifle, and it is very unique. Hes calling me rn, not answering.

Robinson: since trump got into office, he has been pretty diehard MAGA.

Robinson: I'm gonna turn myself in willingly. One of my neighbors here is a deputy for the sheriff.

Robinson: you are all I worry about love.

Twiggs: I'm much more worried about you.

Robinson: don't talk to the media please. don't take any interviews or make any comments. If any police ask you questions ask for a lawyer and stay silent.

Needless to say, there are many serious problems with this official story.

One problem is the fact that Tyler Robinson has not confessed to any of that official story, at least not by the time of this writing. References to a "confession" in news reports highlight the second problem: the comically artificial content of the text dialogue above, which seems to be constructed specifically to lay out every quirky little detail of the official story without relying on Robinson himself to admit to any of it in person.

There is the implicit and highly improbable proposition that Lance Twiggs saw Tyler Robinson etching things on 30-06 cartridges, but without thinking to ask what was up. Further, those etchings themselves can serve no purpose except to direct attention or support an accusation against someone with Tyler Robinson's proclivities. This is a kid who scored a 34 on the ACT (out of a possible 36), putting him in the top 1% of test-takers nationwide-- and is the son of a cop. He is unlikely to have done any such thing.

Let's not forget the "confession" note that had supposedly been destroyed before being seen by the authorities, but was able to be "forensically" deciphered nonetheless.

Then, too, there's the matter of Robinson supposedly having concealed the Mauser down his pantleg while making his way to his sniper's nest, as alleged by the government: it appears not.

Most tellingly, perhaps, is that Robinson is said to have shot Charlie Kirk from in front of him and above, with a 30-06 round at about 200 yds. The autopsy report claims that the bullet entered Charlie's neck at the 4th vertebrae. And yet, there is not only no blood on the tent fabric behind Kirk, but the autopsy report actually declares there to be no exit wound, explaining this by saying that Charlie's body miraculously stopped the bullet.

A 30-06 round sizzles in at between 2,700 and 3,000 fps, and delivers ~3,000 ft. lbs. of energy on target. Such bullets go through tree trunks.

But even if the absurd claim of the official autopsy report were true, that Kirk was hit from the front by a 30-06 round which was somehow stopped from exiting by Kirk's superbody, the arrested energy of the shot would have violently thrown Kirk and his chair backward.

Oops! I forgot. It was a miracle!! And surely God can overcome the physics problem...

Well, He could, indeed. But it is a lot simpler to instead suspect that the autopsy report is reminiscent of the JFK autopsy-- false.

It is a lot simpler to suspect that Charlie wasn't shot with a 30-06 from the front. It is a lot simpler to suspect instead that there IS an entrance wound (probably just below his right ear, judging from the way his body moved at the moment of impact) to which the neck wound in the left front was the exit, and the bit about the bullet being still inside him is just chaff thrown out to discourage questions about why the crime scene was immediately disassembled without any effort to find the bullet.

Or, it is a lot simpler to suspect another possibility-- that Charlie was shot with a very low power (and hence, easily muffled)weapon from the near front.

I COULD BE WRONG about all of this, needless to say. And I must say that I think the odds are good that for reasons or inducements which I can't (but also needn't), explain, Tyler Robinson played some strange part in a theatrical window-dressing operation connected with Charlie Kirk's murder on September 10.

However, I also think that in light of this brief recital of motives, and of problems with the official narrative, the details of the means, and the role someone like Tyler Robinson may have played (and why) don't matter. This brief recital of motives, and of problems with the official narrative is enough to strongly suggest that some seriously corrupt shenanigans are in play in regard to Kirk's murder, of the sort that can only be carried out by bad actors pretty high up the chain.

Bad actors high up the chain can only be engaged to participate in this sort of corrupt behavior by clients with a lot of pull. And there is only one client I can think of who has that sort of pull in Washington and among the Christian Zionists.

Still, as I said, I could be wrong. In the end, it's up to each of us to decide what is most likely to have really happened.

I know where I'm placing my bet.

Not Letting This "Crisis" Go To Waste...

...an important action item opportunity.

FRIENDS, THE SPORADIC EASINGS of the despotic measures to which most of the country has been subjected under since the onset of the COVID-19 hobgoblin narrative should not be allowed to bleed off the head of steam you probably had been developing. The offenses happened, and they're far from over. Stay hot.

And while you are all warmed up, and while others, if they're smart, are just as hot, I'd like you to send an email (and Facebook post, or whatever) with the following content to everyone you can (with a request that they pass it along, in turn):

[Name], since March of 2020 you've watched as over-fed state power has been used to literally destroy classical Western civilization and impose a new despotic paradigm. No dissent or debate permitted-- no permission or agreement sought.

YOU KNOW where this will end up if the arrogant state power being used to make this happen isn't radically diminished in size, influence, resources and popular support, and exposed as an opportunistic exploiter of legal ignorance (an ignorance which it has been nurturing in the average mind for decades).

Those things having not yet happened, you should be quaking in your boots-- and you probably are.

Isn't it time-- and past time-- for you to begin helping to make those desperately-needed defensive changes take place? There is only one way these things can happen short of a who-knows-what we'll-end-up-with explosion of violence. I'm going to show it to you.

Read this little two-page document. Click on the links at the end.

When you're done with that reading, you'll know what to do next.

BTW, REMEMBER, ALSO, THAT EVERY AMERICAN has lately been given a stark lesson in the fact that government officials at all levels will lie to you and violate the law without batting an eye. They will do so any time it serves their agenda, and you don't call them out for it.

If you know anyone who has been persisting in denial on the truth about the income tax, you know such nonsense is usually be grounded in some version or another of, "That can't be true..." or "They would never do something like that...". Now's the time to put a pin in that delusional bubble.

As the C19 hoax has starkly shown, "that" certainly CAN be true, and they certainly WOULD do something like that.

Use this evidence in all your outreach efforts.

"It is not the function of our Government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error."

Regarding Trolleries

(Deceitful efforts to discourage Americans from learning the truth about the "income tax")

 

FOR ALL THE YEARS SINCE 2003 when CtC was first published, the government has engaged in a concerted effort to frighten people away from its truths. This effort involves official government websites and press releases touting an occasional court ruling that appears to be at odds with some CtC-revelation (but without details sufficient to expose the real substance of the ruling)-- and sometimes even more mendacious behavior.

Are the presentations and resources offered on this site and in my other work of any value to you?

Tim Kendrick has posted a video on YouTube regarding donations. I didn't know what to do about it to begin with; I don't do what I do intending for anyone to feel obligated in any way.

But of course, no one IS obligated. I will continue to make my work freely-available here, and in my books for only the cost of a cheap paperback.

Thus, even though I post it here below, Tim's very thoughtful personal resolution and encouragement to others is just an invitation for consideration by those who may not be conscious of the fact that I can't do what I do without support. No one is to feel any pressure from it; if it moves anyone to act let it be solely because it seems right.

How To Be A Leader In The CtC Community

It's simple:

KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THE TAX IN DETAIL

LEAD BY EXAMPLE

KNOW WHERE TO FIND THE RESOURCES

BE FAMILIAR WITH THE SCAMS, THE MISUNDERSTANDINGS, AND THE TROLL-POLLUTION

TAKE CHARGE IN YOUR STATE FORUM, HELPING EVERYONE TO THINK CLEARLY AND STAY ON TOPIC

All-in-all, just be the sort of person for others that you would go to yourself for trustworthy leadership.

Leadership is a challenge. But it's not complicated, and you can do it.

Are You Having Trouble Spreading The Word?

SKEPTICISM (SOMETIMES INVOKED BY FEAR) IS TO BE EXPECTED when you're trying to explain to someone that everything they've been encouraged their whole lives to believe about something as entrenched and significant as the income tax is basically nonsense. So here's a way to help cut through the resistance:

Ask your listener how he or she would react if you were to show an announcement from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue admitting that the tax doesn't apply to the earnings of most Americans and is misapplied most of the time because people don't understand how it works? Or how about if you showed a ruling from the Supreme Court saying the same?

Now you just have to explain that you're going to show exactly those things-- but because the state really doesn't want people to know this, these things haven't been said quite as forthrightly as we would all wish. It's going to take a bit more work to take these admissions in than is sufficient for just reading a press release. But it'll be worth the effort...

Murder On The High Seas: Trump May Be Immune, But Are His Co-Conspirators?

By Thomas L. Knapp

On September 2, the US government claimed that military operators acting on its behalf murdered 11 foreign nationals aboard a boat in international waters off the coast of Venezuela.

I say “claimed” because Venezuelan communications minister Freddy Ñáñez suggests that a video of the murders released by the US government is an AI-generated “deepfake.” Regimes lie, and it’s not obvious which regime is lying in this particular instance.

But let’s assume that US regime officials, including US secretary of defense Pete Hegseth and US secretary of state Marco Rubio, were truthful in their claims.

If so, it’s reasonable to also assume they’re truthful when they claim that these 11 murders are just the start of a “campaign,” and that the US government intends to “blow up and get rid of” (per Rubio) even more victims.

When someone credibly confesses to murder, announces an intent to commit further murders, and clearly possesses the means to do so, it seems to me that whatever law applies should be brought to bear.

Under 18 U.S. Code § 1111, “Within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States, Whoever is guilty of murder in the first degree shall be punished by death or by imprisonment for life; Whoever is guilty of murder in the second degree, shall be imprisoned for any term of years or for life.”

Said jurisdiction is defined in 18 U.S. Code § 7. It includes any vessel or aircraft belonging in whole or in part to the United States, meaning that the military personnel involved in the murder mission are themselves criminals … IF the law is applied.

Similarly, the entire chain of command, all the way up to US president Donald Trump (who has publicly admitted to approving the crime) are clearly on the hook for “conspiracy to murder” under 18 U.S. Code § 1117 … IF the law is applied.

Unfortunately, the US Supreme Court ruled last year that presidents enjoy immunity for all “official acts,” even illegal ones like, say, ordering 11 murders. So Trump himself is as unlikely to be held accountable for this atrocity as for other crimes he’s ordered, such as the murder of eight-year-old American girl Nawar Anwar al-Awlaki in 2017.

But what about Hegseth, Rubio, and the various military officers who must have been involved in planning and directing the operation?

Holding them legally culpable may be as unlikely as bringing Trump himself to justice, but it’s theoretically possible. So far as I can tell there’s nothing to prevent a grand jury from indicting some or all of them.

The biggest hurdle to get over is that the US Department of Justice answers to Trump and likely won’t ASK a grand jury to do any such thing.

So, once again, the US government will get away with murdering anyone it announces is a “terrorist,” “drug smuggler,” etc., without having to prove the charges.

...and then proceed to the afterword below...

 

Afterword

SINCE THIS PIECE WAS POSTED by Thomas Knapp on September 4, Trump and team have twice repeated this crime of murdering Venezuelans in international waters (where the US has no jurisdiction for even legally-conducted interdiction, much less unilateral death from above, but where US forces are still bound by the Constitution, including the Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments). I don't find credible the proposition that these events are mere "AI" fictions; and I don't read the Supreme Court's "official acts" ruling the way Knapp does, either-- murder is not an "official act", even if it is purported to be by a president or his apologists. But both of those disagreements with Knapp's recital are beside the point.

The primary issue with these law-defying, barbaric grunting and chest-banging exercises is their acceleration of what increasingly appears to be a deliberate coarsening of United States behavior and demeanor (that is, the behavior and demeanor of the federal entity, as distinct from the USA). Murder under this or that lame and bogus pretext is business-as-usual for US presidents since the 9/11 "new Pearl Harbor" exercise was conducted to facilitate US assaults on seven chosen obstacles to the Greater Israel project, but under the Trump administration-- especially this second term-- like under the second half of the "Biden" administration, the pace has ratcheted up and the instances of the crimes have become more scatter-shot and conducted with much more brazenness and smirkiness.

Put another way, the criminal behavior of the current Trump administration-- with its Venezuelan murders and saber-rattling, its perpetuation of the Ukraine proxy-war against Russia, its bombing of Yemen and Iran, its assaults on the First Amendment and strong-arming of American business, media, and academic institutions, as well as its participation in Israel's genocide of Palestinians, among much else-- has a very dark and dangerous 'Lord of the Flies' feel to it, by which the American people are invited to degenerate into a level of thuggishness akin to that of favored United States clients who serve as the pretexts for keeping the arms industry in high cotton and the implementation of the American police state on its slow but steady roll-out.

MY MESSAGE HERE is simple: America is being taken down a very bad road right now, and Americans need to put on the brakes, right now.

Seriously. RIGHT NOW.

Happily, we have at hand the Founders' solution to the capture of public institutions by bad actors (or cabals): the regulation of public institutional power (including the power to do harm) by individual Americans taking charge of the resources available to those institutions.

All that is needed to accomplish that righteous and critically-important regulation is that those who have already received CtC's liberating and empowering revelations help the rest of the American population quickly understand the truth about the tax and discover that even though Washington may at present be a Leviathan in the grip of the wicked, this need not remain the case.

Bell-ringing efforts like this are easier than ever now, with the US Supreme Court having just reaffirmed its 108-year-old ruling in Brushaber v. Union Pacific RR. Co. and freshly acknowledged the accuracy of CtC.

Remember, the arising and sustenance of the Leviathan state monster is a direct result of the successful mis-administration of the US income tax laws.

Shrinking that Leviathan state monster merely involves the reversing of that misadministration-- something that can be done by individual Americans, acting one-by-one, with no help or approval of any government official. Each such act makes use of state-restraining tools baked into the Constitutional cake by the Founders and Framers, and each such act WILL make a difference, however small. Most important, each such act will absolve the actor from the dishonor of participation in the heinous crimes their resources would otherwise finance.

You can find all of this explained here, along with links to some additional relevant resources.

Read that material, and then become an agent of change. Urge everyone you know to do both of these things, as well.

It's time to stop whistling past the graveyard and start using the powerful and important tools with which our wise ancestors equipped us. That said, these days are also a good time to be keeping your powder dry.

A Little Extra

EVEN AS ARDENT A STATIST as Abraham Lincoln, in announcing his willingness to burn the Southern states to the ground in order to keep them paying the tariff for the benefit of Northern interests in his first inaugural address on March 4, 1861, paid at least lip service to the Founders design of leaving control over the fuel available to feed the fires Washington wants to light in the hands of the individual citizenry when he said, "Doing this I deem to be only a simple duty on my part; and I shall perform it, unless my rightful masters, the American people, shall withhold the requisite means..."

"Thanks again for your efforts, Pete. They mean an awful lot to a lot of people." "As an attorney, I am humbled by your knowledge and ability in navigating the law. THANK YOU for your hard work and sacrifice."

-Eric Smithers, JD

 

"I am an attorney and want to give a testimonial to your book, which I find to be compelling. I am exercising these rights for myself and my adult children. I'm even considering making this my new avenue of law practice."

Learn what these colleagues already know, then step forward and become part of a coordinated, mutually-supportive squadron focused on developing strategy and deploying the law in courtrooms across the country. There's a lot of suing that needs doing right now.

Learn The Liberating Truth About The Tax

*****

*****

Do you know someone truly steeped in the Kool-Aid?

 

I mean someone who finds it easier to believe that the far-better-educated, far-more-suspicious-of-government Americans of a hundred years ago were complete morons who granted authority to the state to take whatever it wished from themselves and their posterity than to imagine that they themselves simply misunderstand the true nature of the income tax? Even while knowing that their beliefs about the tax are derived entirely from the representations of those who profit from those beliefs (like tax bureaucrats and "tax professionals")?

 

Do you know someone like that? Shake them awake with the latest (sixteenth) edition of CtC!

C'mon! CtC can't be right! You're crazy!

If CtC were actually right, it would mean the government's been concealing and denying and suppressing the truth for years on end, and everybody knows THAT would never happen...

(Edward Snowden, come home! It was all just a bad dream; there really is No Such Agency!)

Illuminating Anniversaries of this week:

September 24- In 1869, "Black Friday" occurred-- a collapse of gold prices back to normal, after having been temporarily bid up 30% or so by speculators who had been buying the metal up in the (mistaken) belief that the federal government intended to redeem "greenbacks" (fiat money issued by the Lincoln administration during the War Between the States) with real money.  In 1979, CompuServe introduces "e-mail".  In 2014, India successfully inserts an exploratory spacecraft into orbit around Mars.

PRO TIP: If I were the IRS and I wanted to discourage people from rebutting allegations that they had done things I can tax, and wanted to keep them from successfully reclaiming withheld or paid-in money, I would salt the "tax honesty" community with passionate-seeming "legal researchers" who would warn anyone whose ear they captured that filing a 1040 is a bad idea for one reason or another...

About The Author

Pete Hendrickson is possibly the most effective lawyer in history, even while never having set foot in a law school, nor ever being a card-carrying member of "the bar". He is the first American in history to secure a complete refund of Social Security and Medicare "contributions" withheld from his earnings (along with all other property taken for federal taxes); further, since 2003 students of his legal analyses and arguments in 'Cracking the Code- The Fascinating Truth About Taxation In America' (CtC), and its sequel, 'Was Grandpa Really a Moron?' have been routinely retaining and recovering billions of dollars which otherwise-- wrongly, but as a matter of course-- would have gone to federal or state government treasuries. This despite concerted efforts by government to suppress his work, and in some cases vigorously oppose the claims by his students.

Hendrickson is also a widely-read essayist on matters of politics, public policy and law; many of these works are collected in his second book, 'Upholding the Law And Other Observations'. He is a member of Mensa; an award-winning artist; and has paid his dues as a youth soccer coach. He is a long-time political activist as well, and has served as co-chair and platform convention delegate of Michigan's largest county Libertarian Party organization; as a consultant to the National Right to Work Foundation and Citizens for a Sound Economy; as a member of the Heartland Institute; and as a member of the International Society for Individual Liberty. He is a frequent radio-show guest on stations across the country.

Hendrickson's business career has included nearly a decade-and-a-half at the leading edge of the renewable-energy industry, both as Director of Purchasing and Materials Management and member of the R&D board at Starpak Energy Systems, the mid-west's then-largest solar heating and energy-recovery-and re-utilization company; and as founder and president of AFJ Inc., a high-efficiency lighting design, manufacture and installation firm.

Beginning in the mid-1990s and continuing for the twelve years before his present full-time focus on the restoration of the rule of law in America, Hendrickson directed purchasing activities for the $84 million-a-year multi-family-housing division of the Farmington Hills, Michigan branch of Edward Rose and Sons, with responsibility for 18,000+ apartments, direct supervision of 35 technicians and agents, and incidental authority over several hundred divisional workers. He also ran the division's 10 cable television earth-station and distribution systems in four states, and designed and administered the company's website.

On rather the other end of the spectrum, amidst these more mundane pursuits Hendrickson co-founded and was the primary creative force behind a small board- and card-game company that enjoyed a modest success for several years.

Hendrickson makes his home in southeast Michigan, with his wife and two children. He is currently working on his next book.
