F. Tom's Story

I am now happily residing in The Lost City Z. The Lost City of Z is the name given by Col. Percy Harrison Fawcett, a British surveyor, to a city that he thought existed in the jungle of the Mato Grosso region of Brazil. My place is 102 acres It's beautiful here,3 waterfalls, takes me an hour and a half / two hours to hike around my own place there's coconuts, pineapples, - Col Fawcett didn't understand the cryptograghy of the map that he had, he presumed it to be a primitive map of South America, as he himself was simply a product of the public school system and just as miisled / miseducated / as political officials today with federal reserve obedience school diplomas. This mysterious city is referenced in a document known as Manuscript 512, housed at the National Library of Rio De Janeiro by a Portuguese explorer (Bandeirante) who wrote that he visited the city in 1753. The city is described in great detail without providing a specific location. Fawcett allegedly heard about this city in the early 1900s and went to Rio De Janeiro to learn more, and came across the earlier report. He was about to go in search of the city when World War I intervened. In 1925, Fawcett and his son Jack disappeared in the Mato Grosso.y Of Z.

You are all living in a fantasy world you think life is all what you see in the movies and on TV!!!" - Well - I haven't watched TV for 5 years now, I don't want a sports car, I have two horses I paid 2 grand for, they have all the food they want, there are 3 houses on my land, I rent 2 of them out to tourists 9 months out of the year it pays the property taxes, and electric bill when the solar power is covered in clouds/ that leaves me with 40 thousand a year left over to (?) buy 200 bucks worth of hamburger / steak a month? I grow more fuit / veggies than i can eat myself, so the tourist renters buy some, once a year new tires? See how this works yet Mr Robinson?
