Well, first of all, Jeannie, I hope you and Caleb are well. And Maddie, of course. As executer of my will, I’ll expect you to be patient. Once the Stargate program is declassified, I’m sure you’ll be able to find an organization that would be happy to display a retrospective of my work as well as my now unfortunately posthumous Nobel prize(s).
But that doesn’t really matter any more. I wanted to say, make sure Maddie gets the tape I made for her. It’s full of guidance she’ll need as she fights her way through the tangled passages of academia. I’m sure you’ll do a very fine job of helping her, it’s just sometimes, you know, you can be a little naïve.
You already know where all my current work is stored. You can help yourself to any of that, anything on my laptops, just, you know, give credit and all that when you publish.
You’ll see I’ve left two separate funds for education. One is for Maddie, the other one is for my son. Now don’t get all worked up. My son will be two next month, and you now know as much about him as I do. The sperm bank allows him the option of contacting me when he comes of age; that option will now fall to you. I suspect I will have many more children once my first Nobel comes through; I’ve left sperm with several different establishments in order to allow as many people as possible to benefit from the genes. I’d like you to divide the bulk of my estate in half, keeping the first half for yourself and using the other half to help all of my future offspring with their educations as needed. I leave it to your judgment.
I thought things would be pretty dull now, but that’s not the case at all. Lots and lots of stuff that could be improved around here, and obviously no one is better qualified than I to do it. Wish I could tell you all about my work, but it’s top secret stuff.
Well, I’d best be getting back to it. I have to run down Sheppard also, he promised he would be writing his letter today, but no doubt he’s flitted off somewhere. The man couldn’t be happier about his damn wings, (yes I admit they’re very pretty, but his vanity is nothing short of ridiculous.)
Be well, be happy.
Love,
Mer
