It looks like William Rivers (Pied Piper) Pitt is doing a lot of worrying that the scam perpetrated by Andy Stephenson is going to explode in his face. Pity Poor Pathetic Pied Piper Pitt (had to get in at least one allitertation) for he hasn’t slept since April as you can see in this Pitt authored DUmmie THREAD titled, “I could use a little help here.” Yeah, Pitt, you could actually use a LOT of help WHEN the AndyScam blows up in such a way that even the incredibly gullible DUmmies realize that Andy Stephenson has been scamming them just as cold-bloodedly as his former mentor, Bev Harris. A constant theme right now in DUmmieland is that they just KNOW that Andy is on the up and up BECAUSE Pied Piper Pitt told them so. I hate to tell you this DUmmies but Pied Piper Pitt has ALSO been having doubts about the DUmmies as have been documented in the Free Republic discussion forum of the previous DUFU edition titled, “’About the Andy Stephenson situation’---Skinner.” Oh, and speaking of Skinner, haven’t the DUmmies noticed that he has been MIA since issuing his doubts about Stephenson a few days ago? Skinner is less than an hour from Baltimore but he has yet to make the short trip over there to verify Andy’s fraudulent story. It is “The Silence of the Scams.” So let us now join Pied Piper Pitt in his state of complete sleeplessness. Somehow I think Pitt will be greeting the sun for many, many mornings to come. As usual the insomniac rantings of Pitt and his DUmmie followers are in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, who enjoyed a refreshing night of deep sleep, is in the [brackets]:
I could use a little help here
[You sure do, Pied Piper Pitt, especially after the DUmmies form a lynch mob to go after you when even those dopes realize FOR SURE that they have been scammed by Andy Stephenson, thanks in large part to you vouching for Andy’s honesty.]
I haven't been able to sleep for about two weeks. I start to drop off, and maybe actually sleep for about 20 minutes, before popping awake. Last night, for about the fifteenth day in a row, I saw the sun come up against my will. This has started to affect my stomach, which makes sleeping harder. I have tried exercise to wear myself out, and have managed to badly strain a muscle in my back.
[Your back will hurt even more after the DUmmies start angrily beating on it while cursing you for enabling the AndyScam.]
So, to recap: No sleep since April, rotten stomach, torn up back. I've reached that insomnia point where I am psyching myself out; I got no sleep the night before last, spent yesterday writing a PDA action alert and a 30-minute speech transcript, drove two hours to do the speech, gave the speech, did a three-hour Q&A, talked to people for another hour, drove two more hours to get home, and by the time I got back here I was literally quivering with exhaustion.
[So, to recap: You are worried sick about what will happen to you after Andy Stephenson is proven to be a complete FRAUD even to the satisfaction of the incredibly gullible DUmmie suckers.]
But I laid awake until 6:37am (I remember looking at the clock), popped awake an 8, 9, 10 before finally giving up and getting up at 11. I can barely see straight right now, my stomach feels like it has snakes in it, my back is killing me so I can't exercise...and I know for a stone fact that I won't be able to sleep again. Tried a nap an hour or so ago. Came thiiiiiiiis close to dropping of and then popped awake.
[3:11 AM: “Worried sick about the backlash when Andy’s scam is finally proven.”
3:12 AM: “Will they toss me out of Dummieland?”
3:13 AM: “Will my speaking engagements be cancelled?”
3:14 AM: “Maybe I could change my identity.”
3:15 AM: “DAMN YOU TO HELL, Andy, for suckering me into being your lousy cheerleader!!!”
3:16 AM: “Is it 3:17 AM yet?”]
Any ideas? I've already heard about taking mela-whatever, but that stuff gave my mother splitting headaches when she tried it. I have drastically cut back on caffiene. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. I've reached that violently, violently, violently frustrated stage of insomnia where sleep is a guaranteed impossibility, and if a routine like yesterday's (while on no sleep) can't get it done, I am at a total loss.
[Confession is good for the soul. And now let us read the hilarious advice on insomnia cures from your fellow DUmmies, Pitt.]
scotch. start about 3pm. you'll be out by 9
[Thunderbird. Start about 3 PM. You’ll be homeless by 9.]
Tried it. I managed to make myself unconscious, but that isn't sleep. Woke up worse off the next day. Tried it again a few days later, and all that happened was I was drunk and wide awake.
[Pied Piper Pitt---The wide awake drunk. That’s what happens when you fall such obvious scams that Andy perpetrates.]
sex?
[Unfortunately Andy can no longer be located.]
Move the clock...for one thing. Looking at that thing with the blinking : all night can be horrifying.
[If Pitt moves his clock all it will mean is that he will have to keep walking over to it every 5 minutes to check to see if he got at least a half hour of sleep.]
yes, sex works remember, only in fundie land is a monogamous partner of the opposite gender who desires to become pregnant is a requirement for "sex."
[Only in DUmmieland does it not matter what gender or species your sex partner is.]
Will: see a doctor. Insomnia is a bitch, although I only get it maybe once or twice a month.
[Pitt needs to see a shrink doctor. See Pitt lying on the shrink’s couch? Let us see what the shrink is writing on his note pad: “Just plain NUTS!!!”]
This sounds like a case for sleeping pills though I ordinarily wouldn't recommend them.
[NOT a good idea. Pitt would be tempted to swallow the whole bottle after the AndyScam blows up in DUmmieland.]
Benadryl. But don't take it every night, as you can become addicted (as per my physician husband).
[Methinks Pitt would become addicted the first night after desperately popping pill after pill of those Benny’s.]
Eat lots of turkey! Turkey has natural sleep inducers in it.
[And if that doesn’t work, have someone take a frozen turkey and slam it on Pitt’s head to knock him out.]
My problem is that I have bad physical reactions to anti-histamine stuff. I had raging bad allergies as a kid, and was always loaded up on the stuff. After a few years it just messed me up, and still does whenever I touch it.
[I can sympathize, Pitt. I’m allergic to wool so I’ve had to cross sheep off my date list. Such are the sacrifices I’ve had to make.]
Tonight I will do turkey, warm milk and the tub
[You’re going to do turkey in a tub filled with warm milk, Pitt? You really ARE kinky!]
Yes - I like Tylenol PM myself.
[I once tried to commit suicide by taking a cyanide pill. Unfortunately some sick bastard tampered with the cyanide pill bottle and I took a Tylenol that he inserted instead. I’m suing!!!]
empty your mind, grasshopper...
[…be just like your fellow DUmmies, cricket…]
I don't really know any tricks to get to sleep but one thing I discovered is that it makes no sense to just lay there willing yourself to do it - the more you try, the less likely it is that it will happen. So when I couldn't sleep, I'd get up. I'd tidy the house, I'd do laundry, I'd go for a walk, I'd read, I'd write, I'd work. Eventually, I'd get very, very tired and I'd lay down again. If I didn't get to sleep within a reasonable time, I'd get up again.
[Good idea… Hey Pitt! My pad needs cleaning and after that you can do my laundry.]
stop doing crystal meth that's what I had to do.
[speed_addiction…is that you?]
The back thing is my own fault. I've been beating the shit out of myself on my weight bench, way overdoing it to try and get sleepy. A muscle in my shoulderblade area finally got tired of it and told me to f*ck myself.
[And after the AndyScam scandal explodes, Pitt, your fellow DUmmies will be telling you the same thing as your shoulderblade muscle told you.]
Definitely see a doctor...there might be a physiological reason you're having trouble sleeping.
[Pitt’s problem is ALL mental.]
Will, I'm not a doctor, but I am going to go ahead and give you medical advice anyway. Your body is telling you to take a break.
[Yes, good advice. Take a break, Pitt, on a Costa Rica getaway with Andy Stephenson. Don’t worry about expenses. Andy has $50,000 to blow.]
Otherwise, until you see an internist, a bit of turkey, milk and a warm bath. Then find something boring, yet educational, to read.
[Maybe not educational but Pitt’s own writings should do the trick.]
A friend of mine who went through a divorce said she would drop her jaw down as you would right before you fall asleep and then force herself to COUNT SHEEP. It actually worked for her.
[It won’t work for me. I told you before that I’m allergic to wool.]
One word solution... PAMPER!
[One word solution… PAMPERS!]
White noise (I have a CD of very, very faint/distand thunderstorms and rain, and it's coma-inducing).
[White noise (I have a CD of very, very faint Pitt speeches, and it’s coma-inducing).]
Breathe thru your eyes ... Bull Durham
[Breath thru your butt … Andy Stephenson.]
Watch some mindless TV.
[Keith Olbermann.]
Ambien is habit forming and every person is different. So telling someone to ignore legitimate and documented side effects and product warnings is not particularly sound advice, wouldn't you agree?
[WARNING: Side effects of Ambien may inlude nausea, diarrhea attacks, dizziness, urges to support left wing loony causes, and the total loss of any ability to discern obvious scams.]
dude...seriously...smoke up. If I need to be asleep, pot is my friend to a nice, happy, and deep sleep.
[“Puff the magic dragon down by the sea!”]
First of all, sleep is over-rated.
[Sleep? Who needs it!]
You need to start "shutting down" very gradually.
[After the DUmmies finally wake up to the AndyScam, they will be “shutting down” Pitt very rapidly.]
Try to figure out what caused this abnormal sleep cycle to begin in the first place and address that issue.
[I don’t believe that Pitt thinking about how he has become Andy Stephenson’s lead cheerleader in Dummieland is going to help him get any sleep.]
Go To An Acupuncturist ASAP.
[Perhaps the acupuncturist can anesthetize those brain cells containing all memories about Andy.]
want something natural? try acupuncture- & I know where to get it cheap in the south end
[I don’t know about Pitt but Andy certainly would love to be acupunctured in the south end.]
You really should go to a doctor for a sleep evaluation. This may include keeping a diary for a week or so…
[May 13: “WHAT? WHAT? WHAT will I do when the DUmmies rise up against me when the AndyScam breaks?
May 15: “Need to leave the country. PRONTO!”
May 16: “Quick flight down to Costa Rica.”
May 20: “Slight gender preference modification but the honeymoon with Andy is just dreamy!”]
Cancel your appointments. Don't listen to TV or radio. Turn off your cell phone. Rent some funny movies.
[Flim Flam Man. The Sting.]
" Was Bev really the bad person?"
Yes she is, but that (maybe) doesn't matter here. It is important for a con man to establish a shared enemy with his mark or marks. It could be the dust in your carpet or Bev Harris, the same applies to all cons.
I think it is a non issue about whether the checks beat him to Baltimore and if he was there on the 9th or the 4th. It is getting beat like a dead horse over there in my opinion - just a little thing. It was said he got in on the 4th, had something in Ohio, and probably he came back and that is where the checks beat him. So really the timeline works.
I find it more compelling that the funds needed kept changing, the dates and amounts necessary keep changing, that JH makes a 25000 mistake, and that he says he paid them, then says he wrote a hot check - yet produces two cashiers check receipts for 32000 that were "lost in the mail". I find he got a 3d cat scan done the day after his cancelled surgery interesting as well.
I find myself curious as to just what $ have been raised considering they are on 123 different sites and air america.
Throw in all this from franksolich's research:
The felonious Andy is not cornered yet, but he is running out of options, and quickly. His current state of mind borders upon psychosis. The felonious Andy is not in Maryland for surgery of any sort.
It may be true that he is afflicted with a bad pancreas, or other ailments suffered by those who eat too much, drink too much, and bombast too much.
(01) The felonious Andy for many years enjoyed a good job, a well-paying and well-benefited job, as a telephone/cable television repairman in Seattle; a union job with medical benefits that cover just about anything. The felonious Andy was very popular and well-liked by his co-workers and customers.
(02) Some time ago, the felonious Andy fell for some fast-talking, slick-talking franchise salesman, and chucked his good job overboard, buying a Subway Sandwich franchise with the expectations that money would flow in over-rained rivers.
(03) The felonious Andy, finding to his disappointment that the hours were too long and the greenbacks too little, allegedly (please note that little word, "allegedly") kept dipping into his own till, for personal purposes.
(04) As the felonious Andy rapidly spun downhill, he milked his dying sister (yes, he actually had a dying sister) of the meagre resources she had, but it was not enough, not nearly enough.
(05) About the same time, the felonious Andy decided to run for secretary of state of Washington (state)--and with great fanfare announced his candidacy.....only to very quickly drop it, as his financial shenanigans were becoming rather too well-known in the Seattle area.
(06) Fortuitously, at this "about the same time," the felonious Andy linked up with Bev Harris of "Black Box Voting" notoriety. The felonious Andy is a good--a charismatic--"salesman," and "sold" himself to Bev Harris.
(07) The felonious Andy was some months later fired by Bev Harris for theft and embezzlement, and because he was being lackadaisical in his responsibilities to investigate voter fraud. And yes, he really did buy underwear on her dime.
(08) The felonious Andy returned to Seattle, but feeling the pressures of creditors and other law-enforcement, decided it would be a good idea to get out of there.
(09) Having no bags of money, the felonious Andy plotted with the DUmmie "sfexpat2000" to get some quick-and-easy bucks. The DUmmie "sfexpat2000" is a real person, a younger woman who worked on the Dean campaign in Washington state in 2004, who has a "thing" about hanging around "gay" men.
(This is really peculiar, because the DUmmie "sfexpat2000" is not half bad-looking, but yet she feels attracted to this chubby boozey blowsy creature; perhaps "opposites" do attract, but anyway.....)
(10) The "fund-raiser" for the felonious Andy in DUmmieland, while raking in some bucks, has not been as good as claimed. And the DUmmie "sfexpat2000" attempted to "bandwagon" more donations by posing as other DUmmies.
(11) As mentioned earlier, the felonious Andy is not yet trapped in a corner, but his options are running out.
As for the Grand DUmmie "Skinner," or the incredibly boring DUmmie PUnidiot "William Pitiful," they appear (please notice the word "appear") to have been taken in by this confidence-job; it appears they had nothing to do with this, other than unwittingly providing "platforms" for the felonious Andy to promote his scam.
And with all that, there is the fact that JH has never had any patient Andy Stephenson, as related by several hospital personnel in various departments.
How do you know what sfexpat2000 looks like?
BTW - did you write that comment on the board?
I don't think we have enough information to call it a scam at 100% - I think the hints of impropriety are numerous and the red flags are everywhere though. Just keep digging and maybe people will see the forest through the trees if it is.
Sincerely, I hope it is true that it is a scam, and I hope he doesn't have cancer from a human standpoint. It would serve them right at the hater's sites to be taken in by another scam - and I hate to see anyone suffer the ravages of cancer.
Don't know if you can rely on that information - Usually a hospital can't give out information like that.
Wasn't following that situation that much. Seems like Andy stole from the thief if memory serves me right. At least from a DU perspective - he was a hero for that.
I could be wrong on this (and I'm sure you will correct me) but most banks and credit unions, do not release cash to you until all monies are officially credited to your account (checks have cleared). We've deposited money before and were told to wait 3-7 days for a check from a reputable firm to clear...how was Andy able to get a check issued on promises??
I tried to provide a link but I must be too stooopid to do it right.
I don't. As I said in the post, these are franksolich's research ---- from way back in this thread. I should have put that whole bottom part in italics.
Sorry, just my maleness talking! ;-P
http://www.wicked-kitten.com/
"lol! Can you link me to one? Sorry, just my maleness talking! ;-P"
I know all about that maleness thing. I use to be one before the surgery.
I am wrong because I do not find her there, but there are plenty of other not-of-this-worlds there to scare you.
lol, thanks!
I have a question. DUmmie Andy claims that the "certified checks" sat in the mailroom, but the checks that he is showing us are "cashiers checks". Isn't there a diference between the two?
I am still having a problem with the checks having no information, plus why is a man scheduled for surgery jetting around the country?
They are basically the same thing as instuments of payment, but you can't stop payment on a certified check.
