So I'm in the car and at Alameda and Hopkins looking at the Chevron station testing out recording from just using the mic in the phone. Kind of frustrated because I haven't had time to write. Just thinking about more and more about chapter 3 and what I'm going to talk about. It's definitely going to be getting vaguished and inded London. And I'm going to reveal that Adam perhaps is not suffering from strokes as much as he is blackouts. He can't remember the last 12 to 24 hours of his life, depending on certain events. So it's going to happen to him in Vegas and that's how he's going to find out. He's going to realize that what happened to him in Iraq was perhaps not a stroke. I'm not really sure if he can detect a stroke in the CAT scan. I think about that more. This stroke could be an interesting plan where it's two so don't rule it out completely. But what else happens? I've got to bring in Jean-François Chimpagion and his role in the story. I think Adam search for where his mother went is similar to Jean-François. He's trying to decipher the hieroglyphs. What else? There's a lot going on in my head right now. Jean-François Chimpagion was also a polymath, which means he mastered all these ancient languages. Perhaps the reason why he, along with an obsession for Egypt, the reason why he considered the father of Egyptology. What's a parallel here is how Adam is stuck with a past that he doesn't understand. In some ways that's like Egypt nowadays. If we're going to talk about Egypt and their struggle for democracy and independence, but their own revolution. The revolution really is about a past you don't understand. And you're attempt to move forward regardless of it. So that's another thing that I have to kind of address. And perhaps maybe this can come out more historically. When I talk about the fascination with Egypt, the West's fascination with Egypt and the changes that Egypt went through upon each interaction with a West that was fascinated with it. So that's another aspect of the story. And each time Adam interacts with Egypt, he suffers these blackouts. So that's why I think it's important to think about how does Adam's little episodes lead him back to an Egypt. And a past that he discovers just like the beginnings of Egyptology and the Egypt to Romania that was going on. What was the West looking for? What was Adam looking for? And again, we got the plan. We're here with Adam being a Texan, the West. So chapter three is going to be about Uncle Billy taking him to Vegas. And in some ways maybe Adam can say that's the last he's heard he had heard of Uncle Billy. Not sure. We'll see. Basically, after a night of drinking and gambling, he will in the Luxor hotel, he will wake up the next day to find himself in London. Where I don't know, the only thing I know is that it was the trip to a landmark of a false Egypt, like a false door. It took him to the beginnings of the other side. But again, we're not going to be without the occasional references to his past. Perhaps Adam will love to talk about how he and Uncle Billy would build Legos together and how Uncle Billy will love to build ghost towns. What do they represent? Why do they think about that? That we don't know about or that we're fascinated with. And Uncle Billy would love to build the jail and Adam would love to build the church. Or maybe Uncle Billy would love to build the saloon, not really sure. But again, we have another reference to the West. It's our fascination with the West as well as the West, the capital West, fascination with Egypt. I also wanted to reference, perhaps in another flashback or a memory of his, let's be... I think some of the, from the book, Organization of Knowledge, because again, it sets the stage for how we really can understand ourselves. These rational concepts, like the Organization of Knowledge, help to kind of make the story, keep the story from going off the deep end. And because there's going to be some, well, you could consider, you know, like, I mean, same with Zoe Douroujmal telling him to think of a better controversial topic thinking of, you know, he may have been a soldier with a crazy story, but, you know, she's the academic who sees the soldier in the more existential context. So again, we have the rational pitted with the irrational. And again, here we have Adam's vagus story, contrasted, you know, the gambling, the playing with chance versus what we call knowledge, what we call data, information, and wisdom. The exact opposite of chance, their reason, you know, I mean, their consequences. So that should assist it. Finally, I want to change the name. I think I've finally found a good name for Adam's mother, Rose, Edda. But I don't know her. It might be peacock. Rose, Edda, peacock, because Rose, Edda, for the Rose, Edda Stone, shampoo the on, bringing it all back, his mother, he's trying to figure out, you know, what happened to his mother, just like shampoo the on was using the Rose, Edda Stone, and Rose, Edda is undoubtedly could be a name from Texas. So that's unquestionable. And peacock, well, I'm still trying to deal with that as her maiden name. I'm not really sure if that's going to work. I'm still thinking about that. But anyway, that's enough for now.
