Building the Graham's Port Pitch Around Authenticity
June 22, 2021
A busy business page about selling Graham's port as the authentic alternative, telling a bigger story around liquor rather than just a bottle, and trying to make the whole pitch clearer even while anxiety, medication, and flashbacks keep pressing at the edges.
Remembering Scooter Rides With Bingo and Celine Dion
5:30 p.m.
(b)
I used to drive around my scooter with my puppy golden retriever singing
Bingo died later. He was a good dog.
My grandma saw me, that is when she knew I was crazy. Or when she caught me wanking.
OMG I have to make a song with this song!
Celine Dion -- My Heart Will Go On:
Every night in my dreams

Contract Plagiarism, Dissertation Lessons and Deadline Stress
7:00 p.m.
I went downstairs. My mum is doing a Buddhist event.
I brushed my teeth, put on deodorant for the first time in months -- I never sweat
I do not have any fat, or any water weight. I am bare bones and a little bit of lean muscle.
I am sadly 42 kg at 5' 9"
*Lehan only sweats when the air conditioning does not work properly*
My mum rudely demanded I go back up.
I made myself Nescafe instant coffee. It is terrible. Very astringent or acidic and bitter. It tastes awful.
I like good coffee. I like that guy James Hoffmann and his coffee videos.
I saw this.
I like Adam Grant.
I am just like Sheryl Sandberg. I also get others to do my research and get academic references -- I did contract plagiarism, but unlike *inaudible* I never went to trial.
Chris Grocott helped me with my essays. I imagined low turnitin plagiarism score = higher score. But I was wrong. It depends on quality of research.
The German anti plagiarism officer marked my dissertation.
I had help. I learned, then I did it by myself. Originally, I did not know how to do it properly. So, I learned from experts--Valerie, Arosha they guided.
Bazena █████████ from Latvia, she showed me, she got 100 or something for her modules. She is blonde. She is hot. So, she got special treatment.
So, after that, I always knew. That is how I must do my business.
Send in the bombshells.
It is not like that Pulp Fiction scene. Jules called Mr Wallace for backup. Marsellus tells him he will send the Wolf. Jules is happy all of a sudden.
Unless, you are talking about that other Pulp Fiction parody scene in ███████ dot com with Brett █████.
I have to send in hot chicks.
Always hoped that I'd be an Apostle--
Always hoped that I'd be a Pimp-
Ever since I played that Pimp game on Facebook a long time ago
Ever since I heard 50 Cent sing about being a P.I.M.P.
I like the way Sheryl Sandberg uses those references. Very convenient. Very clever. I could easily make sense of it.
That German marker gave me 50%!!
I felt she assumed I cheated, or was prejudiced, but it was because I had secondary sources for a meta analysis. This is considered poor qualitative research.
Ahh I hate her!!
Hahaha
But she explained, she taught me
I did not do a good job, I was in crisis -- though I had 400 references
Your subordinates cannot pass accurate feedback, it is always -- Jawohl mein führer!!
Jawohl!!
I cannot cope with stress, so well
I remember Bazena, who I called Elsa, because she has Elsa's white blonde hair -- she sat next to me, I helped her with her computer stuff
(I lied to her that I thought of Elsa from Frozen, I was thinking Elsa ████... )
She should help me sell those big Russian weapons in case the US does not or help me get the vodka..
Everyone has to pull their weight..
There is no "free lunch" to being friends with Lehan...
Ya'll hos best be earn'n me ma money--
Don't make me smack ya face
XD
I don't know what you heard about me
But you ain't gonna get a dollar outta me
8:30 p.m.
I remember that because high stress levels trigger my complex PTSD badly.
I was in severe stress during final exam submission deadlines.
Now also I feel stressed.
I did most of presentation, I will add history and opportunity and then it is done.
Taking Mort Rosenblum’s References and Admitting It Was Wrong
9:00 p.m.
(b)
I stole Mort Rosenblum's references. So, that was a mistake. I had to meet them and learn. I did not know. I was a bit too lazy.
It was not considered plagiarism plagiarism -- but it kinda was.
There is no rule saying, "you cannot steal someone's else's references."
[Lehan]
Listen, Chris, I went through your anti plagiarism rules.
I do not see a rule saying I cannot take someone else's citations for my own use.
Alex Marsh helped me argue my case.
***
In the end, I accepted, it was literally stealing another researcher's research.
So, I just minimised my use of those citations.
I used the next ones.
Whatever.
Close call.
Alex also could not believe it was wrong.
This is what we do.
So, all those other references, I opened them up, went to their references/ bibliography, used those.
Learning Why Reusing Another Researcher’s Bibliography Was Wrong
9:15 p.m.
I remember telling them with a straight face:
I liked her research, so I also went through her bibliography, I liked those references also.
So, I jotted them down.
If I read those same references, I have every right to write those down.
There is no rule to forbid it.
They told me not to do it, assigned the plagiarism officer, then, they showed me this:
They basically say, "Lehan, even if you cite them, it is STILL WRONG".
Dr Christopher Land hahahaha
:)
Alex Marsh wrote about international arms
I wrote about chocolate value/ supply chain globally
It was a good learning experience.
I was confused. I was lucky they intervened early. Or it could have gone wrong.
I think -- the reason it happened -- was because there were so few academic peer reviewed articles on cocoa
So, I was forced to choose from a narrow list.
I am very lucky it happened, I was able to learn
Graham’s Port, Mirtazapine and Disturbing Flashbacks
2:15 a.m.
(b)
I am enjoying this stuff. I love my job. I have to still sell those bottles of port for Jorge!
We got liquor licenses AllStar Sports Lounge and Butlers restaurants by cousins Chadu/ Chathula and Koshitha/ Seshitha.
But we need to tell a really big story to sell differentiated alcohol.
Jacques was saying, try to make it clear, those other alcohol products are adulterated.
Grahams, we hand deliver it by ourselves, it is always authentic -- not like those Johnny Walkers -- anyone can get a bottle for $1, stickers, add whatever in it.
I want to give my favourite person $1m/ year: Jonathan Hirshon + big surprise.
Not really "give" -- but 'earn' with by building US/IL - SL ties for good.
So, I wanted to make it clear. This makes it easier to read or follow. So, he can do what he wants.
I get anxious anyway when I do stuff. Unlike with essays or university deadlines, this is not as bad.
I have marginally improved.

* Lehan tried to bully Jacques by pointing out he is 76 years old and so old -- but he did not get upset.
But Jacques does not like Epstein "the child rapist".

Complaining About the Narrator and Praising Schwarzkopf’s Music Taste
2:30 a.m.
I hate those objective remarks!
I do not know who the f*** that narrator is.
But whoever he or she or it -- or G-d or His dark side is, please read page 43 of Rogue State by William Blum --
I have plans for when I go for a walk with Narrator.
This is one of my favourite songs:
I love General Norman "Bear" Schwarzkopf -- and President Trump -- they had good music tastes...
