Better Song... Jim Croce, I've Got A Name
“Savant Simulation Designer”. Trained not by universities but by Stephen V Cole, Philip J Klass, Neil Peart, and his many other idols, “Baby Bond” is his grandfather's favorite grandson and the only one he really tried to teach things too. “Agent Jay” went through “Grandpa's Boot Camp” and just naturally has many of the “Bond Aspects” of Jinker Pinker. Alexander Edward Michalik has much of the other half... the athletic daredevil... “It skips a generation”. Born to design games and simulations Marc “Kavik Kang” Michalik, a former member of the SFB Staff, stumbled upon what he calls “Rube”. Rube is the “4th Generation of Artificial Time”, an evolution of Steve Cole's way of making games, specifically his “Impulse Chart” from Star Fleet Battles... a continuation of 250 years of history of military simulation design. Rube is the primitive fundamental basis of “CyberSpace” and of something very much like “The Matrix”, which is game design... not programming or high math. Before taking civilian game design to its current height of evolution, “The Crown Prince Who Will Never Be” was... believe it or not... “A Royal Family of the MIBs”... among the top “Ufologists” of the 1990's who defeated the legendary Philip J Klass's method of “debunkery” as “The One & Only Great Wall Debunker”... I out debated Philip J Klass, in an aviation debate, through “The Total Package” of game design trickery and debate skills against the raw debate skills of Philip J “Dean Adams” Klass. “Baby Bond” essentially “won the UFO debate on UseNet”, and even later convinced DIA to publicly acknowledge the existence of Area 51 in 1996. But then... I was the Crown Prince Who Will Never Be and didn't even fully realize that at the time... so I think my simply asking them too and having a good reason was all it actually took for me to convince them.
As the only one of my generation of the family to know anything about any of this, because I have those aspects of “King Edward” in me to have (very easily) seen it all, with my father eventually admitting a lot of it and wanting my help to figure out what his own father actually did, this family tree is actually my way of saying all of this to anyone who wants to hear it. Even my own family, since none of them would believe any of this... even though it is all so obvious. None of my generation was supposed to know about any of this, the only reason I know about it is that it couldn't be kept from me... “Baby Bond”. I began asking my father questions about grandpa when I was only 12 or 13, long before he began “asking for my help” to figure out what he really did in Tokyo. My uncle Richard isn't much of a secret, that he worked with just about every major defense contractor over the course of his career and was an MIT electronics “wizard” of the 1970's and 80's is not a secret. My father is in about 20 volumes of Who's Who and was a member of George HW Bush's “Inner Circle”, he's not really that big of a “secret” either. It is my grandfather who you will find almost nothing about, other than “All records lost in the fire at the National Archives in 1972”... What conspiracy theorists will tell you is the classic “shadow response” meaning “this must be something big”. It is saying that ESM's records were lost in a very small fire in a small area of the National Archives... along with all of the files about UFO's and the JFK assassination. Yeah...
So, I really do get to say that... “I am Agent Jay! Baby Bond! 50% Bond, 50% Bond's abilities... 50% destroyed by decades of smoking superkill weed! The Bond Who Can't Remember Where He Just Left His Gun... because he doesn't even have one!!!” And I'm the last one who will ever be able to say that, because neither Mike or I ever had any children... so the “Royal Line” of the Michalik family ends with us. The direct genetic line of our family that is descended from “Jinker Pinker” will be extinct once Mike & I are gone... unless Alexander Edward Michalik has a son someday in the future. But in the “Age of Kings” or “Galactic Concordium”... that isn't the same thing. The children of a second wife “don't really count”. Only my first son could truly continue the “Dynasty”... so in that sense we are “extinct” with my generation.
The most well-known family story of Jinker Pinker & Baby Bond was the Thanksgiving Garand Incident. When I was just 4 years old I fired a gun for the first time, in grandpa's basement gun range which was just a very small steel trap against the far wall of the basement. His aim was so good that it was safe for him to shoot into such a small target inside of his house. I sat between his legs and pulled the trigger when he told me... and nobody in the house had any idea that an M1 Garand was about to go off in the basement just as HAM was serving thanksgiving dinner. HAM screeching “Ed, stop shooting guns in the basement!!!” is probably what everyone who was there remembers the most. When I was 12 years old ESM, HAM, & RAM visited us in Colorado together, shortly after EFM & CC became a couple. The “Upper Triangle” “Conspired With Science” to repair a big chunk of the 1.5 inch thick slate of my father's very expensive imported European pool table that broke off during the move too the new house. Between the three of them (ESM might as well have been a geologist, EFM knew everything about mining & tunneling, RAM was a scientist) they worked out a formula to create something close to “artificial slate” and molded a new corner onto that slab of slate. It worked for a few years, but warped a little bit after that. But the true reason for the visit was ESM's desire to stand on top of NORAD... which he did by taking us to see the USAF Academy in Colorado Springs, from a distance, on the way to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo... where anyone can go to stand on top of NORAD.
