Letter to Julia 20131028

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Ach!  I have to do ironing.  I hate ironing!  I hate doing laundry!  But I can do my own laundry, Julia.  You don't have to do it for me, but if you want me to always look immaculate, after all I will be married to high fashion, then you'd better have the maid do it.  Since I don't pass anymore, I don't really care much about my clothes as long as I don't have to go around naked.  After all, it's OK for a man to be butt ugly.  I was thinking about washers and dryers, and your laundry.  Malaysia doesn't have natural gas supplied to homes via pipe lines.  So there is no heat in a typical house, because there is no gas supply.  Which is generally not a big deal in a tropical country, because it hardly ever gets cold.  I actually like it slightly cold, because I don't sweat as much and therefore don't have to shower as much, but most women hate the cold.  I think it's easier to heat up than to cool down.  Anyway, heaters, ovens, hot showers, and clothes dryers in Malaysia are electric.  I dry my clothes indoors on a short line and on the window frames, but in your case, you would probably want a clothes dryer.  I can't envision your displaying your expensive clothes outside on a clothes line.  But be warned, my love!  It may be difficult to find and expensive to maintain an electric clothes dryer.  Gas here in Malaysia is propane, packaged in tanks sized for home or industry.  Perhaps heating elements that use gas can be modified to input cooking gas tanks.  Where there's a will, there's a way.  InshaAllah.  But we can't store all those gas tanks outside, because somebody might pinch them.  I love you, Julia!

Erin my dearest, I need to discuss with you about the public eye.  You are very brave, and Julia is also very brave.  But courage alone is not enough, and life is a trial for every human being, that's why we need the protection of God.  I hope you are aware by now that the crowd is not your friend.  The public eye is unforgiving, and I feel that you should study it.  After all, what use is intelligence without data?  When we are married inshaAllah, I can help protect you and distract them away from you inshaAllah, but I must marry Julia first.  So please study the public eye.  I don't want to post any depressing videos here because I want you to stay positive, but I also want you to know how to be cautious.  So please go into YouTube and study the lives of Andy Gibb and Sharon Tate.  I do however have something positive to post, and this is for you.  I love you, Erin.
