-Thomas Paine

 

You can't understand the present if you don't understand the past...

Illuminating anniversaries of this week:

July 13- In 1787, the Continental Congress enacts the Northwest Ordinance, creating-- with the agreement of the several states-- the first "United States territory" and providing for the division of the territory into new union states fully equal in legal status to the original 13 as soon as certain specified conditions are met.  In 1863, anti-conscription rioting begins in New York City.  The riots, regarded as the worst civil unrest in American history, ran for three days, and were of such ferocity and size that authorities declared themselves unable to consider martial law for lack of sufficient means to enforce it.  In 2024, presidential candidate Donald Trump appears to have been targeted by an assassin at a campaign rally in Butler, PA, but odd features of the affair leave many questioning its authenticity.

 

Anniversaries of interest for each day of this week will be found throughout the newsletter below.

 

NOTE: I don't even try to include in these anniversary compilations items involved in the "COVID-19" scam, hysteria and exploitation. There would be way too much to say about all that to suit this format. But find my summary of that history, and related observations posted throughout 2020 and 2021, here. Same thing regarding the genocide in Palestine-- find related posts compiled here; and those concerning the proxy war against Russia at the expense of Ukraine, here.

Every Year I Am Asked, "Does It Still Work"?

Drives me crazy...

FOR EACH OF THE TWENTY-THREE YEARS since first publishing 'Cracking the Code- The Fascinating Truth About Taxation In America' (CtC), I've gotten this same question from someone (or more often many someones)-- generally in early Spring. "Early Spring" means shortly before what is known as "Tax Day", and before I have begun receiving victories to post concerning the preceding year.

These inquiries are from folks who are somehow aware of CtC but have yet to read the book or study its massive body of supporting evidence-- both academic and practical-- and supplemental material. They assume (often with the encouragement of the army of trolls peppered throughout the "tax honesty" and legal communities) that CtC constitutes a trick of some kind by which the income tax system is hoodwinked. Having not yet seen any victories posted for the latest filing year, these anxious and ignorant folks want to know if that's because the government has caught on, and they must look elsewhere for something that "works".

This Spring proved to be no exception, and the anxieties reflected in these inquiries may have been bigger than usual, with me being largely off-line for the past 14 months thanks to rotator-cuff surgeries-- first in May of last year, and then on the other side this past January. But of course, those anxieties-- bigger than usual though they may have been-- are as groundless as usual, because CtC is no trick. As all those who HAVE read the book know, CtC is simply the law, plainly presented after a knock-down of all the obfuscating subterfuges with which it is hedged about by governments who benefit from popular ignorance of its nuances.

TRUTH BE TOLD, EVEN BEFORE MY recent hiatus I had for some time been easing back on my long-standing practice of posting new victory examples throughout the year. When I hit year twenty (in 2023), I decided that anyone who couldn't see two decades of continuous capitulation to CtC by federal and state tax agencies, punctuated only by sporadic efforts to evade or balk without ever actually disputing CtC's revelations and analyses, and demonstrated across 1,500 fully-documented examples (including many in which all that evasion and balkiness is overcome) to be evidence enough was beyond being reached. Such a person was incapable of being shown the open door of the prison in which their ignorance and fear confined them.

When, in June of 2024, the US Supreme Court unanimously (across three opinions in a single ruling) declared all of the key underlying historical and legal points upon which CtC's revelations are grounded, and reaffirmed its own long-standing prior rulings on the income tax cited throughout CtC (and established that the IRS and lower courts institution-wide had been lying about the nature of the tax for decades, in order to misapply it just as CtC shows them to have been doing), I concluded that I really needn't struggle any further to shout louder and turn the wattage up on the lights. My posting of victories would henceforth only be special-occasion stuff, for the purpose of making or illustrating special points.

The subsequent volume of victory posts dropped accordingly, as most of you will have noticed.

AS IT HAPPENS, HOWEVER, this past week I had three victories shared with me that I am pleased to share with you, as well. Enjoy them, and please be sure to share them widely, because these particular three victories are especially-strong demonstrations that the only trickery ever involved has been that of the IRS.

JACQUES & PEGGY BOUDIN have just secured the most recent of five complete federal victories over the last two years, this one for 2025:

Here is the filing by which Jacques & Peggy made this claim. The special significance of this victory by Jacques & Peggy lies not so much in this latest bow by the IRS (pleasing though it is on its own merits) but in the fact that over the course of this good couple's educated march on behalf of the rule of law they have been the beneficiaries of two especially courteous concessions by the tax agency in which computational errors in the government's favor made by Jacques & Peggy have been corrected. The first (which came only after some balky behavior by the agency) can be seen here.

Enjoy the second IRS fix in Jaques & Peggy's favor here (and find Jacques & Peggy's other victories prior to the one posted above-- one of which issued only after a year of stalling-- further down that same page).

WELL DONE, Jacques & Peggy!!

***

BEN PEZZANO is the CtC Warrior who shared the other two victories I post today, and Ben's experience is the opposite of Jacque & Peggy Boudin-- while delivering the same message. As in Jacques & Peggy's case, two of Ben's victories have been remarkable for IRS attention-- but in Ben's case it was entirely adverse and corrupt attention, lengthily dragged out until Ben's well-educated and thoroughly upright perseverance in insisting that the law be respected and upheld won the day.

The first of Ben's CtC-educated victories was also the first of those two battlegrounds. It can be seen here. Ben's second victory, won without fuss, is posted here.

Ben's new victories are a return for form by the IRS, with the first of them, for 2024, being another battleground. The result was a complete refund of everything withheld from Ben and given over to the feds during 2024, plus interest:

This amount represents amounts withheld as FICA taxes-- the only withholding to which Ben had been subjected during 2024, but which the IRS tried hard to deny before finally caving to the facts in the face of Ben's rock-solid stance. Here is the filing involved, here is the corrupt lie by which the IRS attempted to evade Ben's claim, and here is Ben's response and the various stalls and replies exchanged during the following year before the agency finally threw in the towel.

Keeping with the pattern, even while Ben was preparing his 2024 docs to send to me for posting his 2025 refund arrived-- this one, like his second, was secured with little fuss:

...on this filing, and after only this little bit of quickly-dealt-with balkiness.

WELL DONE, Ben!!

TAKEN TOGETHER, Jacques & Peggy's and Ben's experiences of considerable IRS attention to their perfectly unambiguous claims on multiple occasions with the outcomes they produced unmistakably prove the point. No tricks; just the law.

I hope you all can make good use of all of this to help other good Americans see the light. Now, more than ever, we-- and our children-- need to shake ourselves awake and step on the brakes of this runaway train before it is too late. There's not much time left.

My 2026 Voter's Guide

It's easy-peasy, and I hope you all find it helpful.

AMERICA IS FACED WITH the ever-increasing capture of governmental institutions (and media) by utterly un-American Israel-First Zionists-- a capture nicely illustrated in both its pervasiveness and its perniciousness by the inclusion of Sec. 219 in this year's NDAA and the House Rules committee decision to block Thomas Massie's effort to get a vote on an amendment to strip the section from the bill. In light of that very dangerous situation, my Voter's Guide is as simple as this:

  1. Identify all candidates for each position who give you reason to believe are in no way beholden to, or biased in favor of, Israel, or are sympathetic to Zionism in any other way.

  2. If there are none who qualify, abstain. If there are one or more who qualify, vote for the one, or for the most Libertarian-leaning of the several qualified candidates, regardless of any other position a qualified candidate might hold.*

That's it, folks.

*I'm serious about the "regardless" thing. Even if the candidate is an outright communist, or Muslim, or whatever else you might fear (rightly or wrongly), not enough of them could possibly be elected to take over and work their will at this point. The best we can hope for now is a weakening of the stranglehold of the Zionist cult on today's government, and any candidate ideology that competes with that one will do.

Not Letting This "Crisis" Go To Waste...

...an important action item opportunity.

FRIENDS, THE SPORADIC EASINGS of the despotic measures to which most of the country has been subjected under since the onset of the COVID-19 hobgoblin narrative should not be allowed to bleed off the head of steam you probably had been developing. The offenses happened, and they're far from over. Stay hot.

And while you are all warmed up, and while others, if they're smart, are just as hot, I'd like you to send an email (and Facebook post, or whatever) with the following content to everyone you can (with a request that they pass it along, in turn):

[Name], since March of 2020 you've watched as over-fed state power has been used to literally destroy classical Western civilization and impose a new despotic paradigm. No dissent or debate permitted-- no permission or agreement sought.

YOU KNOW where this will end up if the arrogant state power being used to make this happen isn't radically diminished in size, influence, resources and popular support, and exposed as an opportunistic exploiter of legal ignorance (an ignorance which it has been nurturing in the average mind for decades).

Those things having not yet happened, you should be quaking in your boots-- and you probably are.

Isn't it time-- and past time-- for you to begin helping to make those desperately-needed defensive changes take place? There is only one way these things can happen short of a who-knows-what we'll-end-up-with explosion of violence. I'm going to show it to you.

Read this little two-page document. Click on the links at the end.

When you're done with that reading, you'll know what to do next.

BTW, REMEMBER, ALSO, THAT EVERY AMERICAN has lately been given a stark lesson in the fact that government officials at all levels will lie to you and violate the law without batting an eye. They will do so any time it serves their agenda, and you don't call them out for it.

If you know anyone who has been persisting in denial on the truth about the income tax, you know such nonsense is usually be grounded in some version or another of, "That can't be true..." or "They would never do something like that...". Now's the time to put a pin in that delusional bubble.

As the C19 hoax has starkly shown, "that" certainly CAN be true, and they certainly WOULD do something like that.

Use this evidence in all your outreach efforts.

"It is not the function of our Government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error."

Regarding Trolleries

(Deceitful efforts to discourage Americans from learning the truth about the "income tax")

 

FOR ALL THE YEARS SINCE 2003 when CtC was first published, the government has engaged in a concerted effort to frighten people away from its truths. This effort involves official government websites and press releases touting an occasional court ruling that appears to be at odds with some CtC-revelation (but without details sufficient to expose the real substance of the ruling)-- and sometimes even more mendacious behavior.

Are the presentations and resources offered on this site and in my other work of any value to you?

Tim Kendrick has posted a video on YouTube regarding donations. I didn't know what to do about it to begin with; I don't do what I do intending for anyone to feel obligated in any way.

But of course, no one IS obligated. I will continue to make my work freely-available here, and in my books for only the cost of a cheap paperback.

Thus, even though I post it here below, Tim's very thoughtful personal resolution and encouragement to others is just an invitation for consideration by those who may not be conscious of the fact that I can't do what I do without support. No one is to feel any pressure from it; if it moves anyone to act let it be solely because it seems right.

How To Be A Leader In The CtC Community

It's simple:

KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THE TAX IN DETAIL

LEAD BY EXAMPLE

KNOW WHERE TO FIND THE RESOURCES

BE FAMILIAR WITH THE SCAMS, THE MISUNDERSTANDINGS, AND THE TROLL-POLLUTION

TAKE CHARGE IN YOUR STATE FORUM, HELPING EVERYONE TO THINK CLEARLY AND STAY ON TOPIC

All-in-all, just be the sort of person for others that you would go to yourself for trustworthy leadership.

Leadership is a challenge. But it's not complicated, and you can do it.

Are You Having Trouble Spreading The Word?

SKEPTICISM (SOMETIMES INVOKED BY FEAR) IS TO BE EXPECTED when you're trying to explain to someone that everything they've been encouraged their whole lives to believe about something as entrenched and significant as the income tax is basically nonsense. So here's a way to help cut through the resistance:

Ask your listener how he or she would react if you were to show an announcement from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue admitting that the tax doesn't apply to the earnings of most Americans and is misapplied most of the time because people don't understand how it works? Or how about if you showed a ruling from the Supreme Court saying the same?

Now you just have to explain that you're going to show exactly those things-- but because the state really doesn't want people to know this, these things haven't been said quite as forthrightly as we would all wish. It's going to take a bit more work to take these admissions in than is sufficient for just reading a press release. But it'll be worth the effort...

Other Voices (followed by an important afterword)

It's A Race Between Revolutionary Consciousness And The Implementation Of Police Robots

by Caitlin Johnstone

John F Kennedy was correct when he said “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”

That’s why police robots are being aggressively normalized today. The empire managers want to make sure violent revolution is impossible, too.

The New York Times’ sports department The Athletic has a creepy new article out titled “The ‘Robodogs’ on World Cup patrol in Mexico” about how wonderful and awesome it is that the international soccer tournament is being patrolled by surveillance robots.

The article is functionally a PR piece for police robots, gushing about how “cute” and “cool” onlookers find the dystopian technology.

The piece opens with the cheery paragraph, “A group of police officers patrolling a stadium with three dogs on a World Cup matchday wouldn’t usually raise eyebrows. But when those three dogs are high-tech robots equipped with video cameras that can sustain speeds of 20kmph, you can understand the fuss.”

“The K9-Xs are made of aluminium and high-strength plastic,” The Athletic writes. “They have facial recognition and behavioural analysis systems installed, which means they detect when a group of people become agitated and send video to the police force’s centre for command, control, communication and computers.”

In a video segment accompanying the article, The Athletic’s Tomás Hill López-Menchero refers to the robots as “creatures” and says the robots “went down a treat with the public” in the World Cup audience.

It’s little things like this that help normalize police robots in public consciousness. Calling them “dogs”, giving them the name “K9”, calling them “creatures” instead of machines. It’s pretty clearly designed to evoke the image of something normal that westerners are familiar and comfortable with.

But westerners should not feel familiar and comfortable with these things, and we should not see them as normal. The fact that we’re seeing more and more use of police robots around the world should frighten us all, and the fact that popular institutions like the World Cup and the New York Times are being used to normalize them should freak us the hell out.

Our rulers are always acutely aware that there are a whole lot more of us than there are of them, and that we could turn on them at any time. This has been the case for as long as there have been rulers. History is full of examples of the masses turning against their government and establishing a new order, and the oligarchs and empire managers have long been preoccupied with the task of ensuring that this never happens to them.

Autonomous killing machines nullify many of the problems presented by human security forces. You don’t have to worry about the robot army siding with the people, or refusing to fire upon their fellow citizens. An army of militarized police robots would provide the oligarchs and empire managers of the western empire with a perpetually obedient force of bulletproof trigger-pullers who can shut down any uprising when the time comes.

The increasing ubiquitousness of police robots is not separate from the exploding prevalence of surveillance cameras and AI facial recognition, the push for digital IDs and the eradication of online anonymity, or the increasing instances of online censorship and Silicon Valley algorithm manipulation. A technological cage is being constructed around the public to ensure that we can be stopped from turning against our masters.

...and then proceed to the afterword below...

 

Afterword

PRETTY WEIRD, WORRYING ABOUT ROBOT DOGS, right? Not that long ago, such a concern would qualify one for the tin-foil-hat epithet. But this is not science fiction any more, and it's a deadly serious threat, as Caitlin Johnstone very cogently explains.

What is missing from Johnstone's otherwise excellent presentation is a solution (or, at least, a proposed path to a solution). I'm going to briefly attempt to fill that void.

First, let's remember that the American system is designed with recognition of the primacy of the citizenry-- as individuals-- as its foundation. A key aspect of that foundational stature is the right of those citizens-- both in their individual capacity and as organized by themselves and per their own purposes and plans into multi-person military units-- to be at military parity with the state and its organs.

This military right is, of course, reflected in the Second Amendment to the US Constitution (and is found duplicated in most, if not all, state Constitutions, as well), which the Founders make perfectly clear stands against the very government created by the Constitution (as well as any other threat which might menace the people):

The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in Government.

-Thomas Jefferson

United States Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story explains the matter well, in his 1833 'Commentaries On The Constitution Of The United States':

The next amendment is: 'A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.'

The importance of this article will scarcely be doubted by any persons, who have duly reflected upon the subject. The militia is the natural defence of a free country against sudden foreign invasions, domestic insurrections, and domestic usurpations of power by rulers. It is against sound policy for a free people to keep up large military establishments and standing armies in time of peace, both from the enormous expenses, with which they are attended, and the facile means, which they afford to ambitious and unprincipled rulers, to subvert the government, or trample upon the rights of the people. The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them.

(Click here for a complete discussion of the Second Amendment.)

As a practical matter-- and as messy a proposition as it may seem to the crabbed minds of the world's Hobbesians-- the principle behind the Second Amendment means that the state, at any and every level, and in all its security organs, should not be permitted any means of violence and compulsion which the people are unable to overcome.

Sadly, this principle, though somewhat honored by the lip now and then, is only left with a semblance of real life by the fact that the folks piloting the fighter jets and driving the tanks, of which the general citizenry have none, are themselves of the citizenry, and can choose to align themselves accordingly and change the balance of power should push really come to shove. But as Johnstone observes, no such theoretical protection exists when the despotic state's army or police force is robotic.

Hence, until we all acquire our own individual robotic soldiers, answerable only to ourselves, or another practical and reliable means of defeating a despotic cabal's robots, we have only another foundational principle of the American experiment to fall back upon as at least a half-measure of defense: maximal federalism, by which I mean the atomizing of all power structures into the smallest possible units, each of which then becomes a potential hindrance to, and check upon, the ambitions and threats of the others.

HOW, YOU MIGHT ASK, can such a prophylactic atomization be accomplished? Well, the simplest and surest means is by cutting off the resources by which the Leviathan state (and its lesser, constituent statelets) have grown large and powerful enough to be dominant over what otherwise would be at least nominally competing aggregated powers which are naturally closer to the people and which could and should, with greater parity in size and strength against shrunken states, be the hindrances and checks required.

What is needed to accomplish that righteous and critically-important resource cut-off is that those who have already received CtC's liberating and empowering revelations help the rest of the American population quickly understand the truth about the tax and discover that even though Washington (and the various state houses) may at present be Leviathans in the grip of the wicked, this need not remain the case.

Bell-ringing efforts like this are easier than ever now, with the US Supreme Court having just reaffirmed its 108-year-old ruling in Brushaber v. Union Pacific RR. Co. and having freshly acknowledged the accuracy of CtC.

Remember, the arising and sustenance of the Leviathan state monster is a direct result of the successful mis-administration of the US income tax laws.

Shrinking that Leviathan state monster merely involves the reversing of that misadministration-- something that can be done by individual Americans, acting one-by-one, with no help or approval of any government official. Each such act makes use of state-restraining tools baked into the Constitutional cake by the Founders and Framers, and each such act WILL make a difference, however small. Most important, each such act will absolve the actor from the dishonor of participation in the heinous crimes their resources would otherwise finance.

You can find all of this explained here, along with links to some additional relevant resources.

Read that material, and then become an agent of change. Urge everyone you know to do both of these things, as well.

It's time to stop whistling past the graveyard and start using the powerful and important tools with which our wise ancestors equipped us. That said, these days are also a good time to be keeping your powder dry.

A Little Extra

EVEN AS ARDENT A STATIST as Abraham Lincoln, in announcing his willingness to burn the Southern states to the ground in order to keep them paying the tariff for the benefit of Northern interests in his first inaugural address on March 4, 1861, paid at least lip service to the Founders design of leaving control over the fuel available to feed the fires Washington wants to light in the hands of the individual citizenry when he said, "Doing this I deem to be only a simple duty on my part; and I shall perform it, unless my rightful masters, the American people, shall withhold the requisite means..."

Do you know someone truly steeped in the Kool-Aid?

 

I mean someone who finds it easier to believe that the far-better-educated, far-more-suspicious-of-government Americans of a hundred years ago were complete morons who granted authority to the state to take whatever it wished from themselves and their posterity than to imagine that they themselves simply misunderstand the true nature of the income tax? Even while knowing that their beliefs about the tax are derived entirely from the representations of those who profit from those beliefs (like tax bureaucrats and "tax professionals")?

 

Do you know someone like that? Shake them awake with the latest (sixteenth) edition of CtC!

C'mon! CtC can't be right! You're crazy!

If CtC were actually right, it would mean the government's been concealing and denying and suppressing the truth for years on end, and everybody knows THAT would never happen...

(Edward Snowden, come home! It was all just a bad dream; there really is No Such Agency!)

Illuminating anniversaries of this week:

July 14- In 1789, citizens of Paris storm the Bastille (the national government prison in the city), release its prisoners and begin the French Revolution.  In 1798, the Sedition Act (part of of "Alien and Sedition Acts"), an unconstitutional measure intended to stifle criticism of the undeclared war on France being conducted by the Federalist faction then in control of Congress and the Presidency, becomes "law".  Widespread opposition to these acts (and the policies they were intended to shield) led to the extinction of the Federalist Party within a few short years.  (See 'Strolling Down Memory Lane' in 'Upholding the Law And Other Observations' for more on this subject.)  In 1881, Billy the Kid is shot and killed by Pat Garrett.  In 1969, United States Federal Reserve Notes in $500, $1,000, $5,000 and $10,000 denominations are officially withdrawn from circulation.  In 2015 a NASA probe does the first human-instrument fly-by of Pluto.

PRO TIP: If I were the IRS and I wanted to discourage people from rebutting allegations that they had done things I can tax, and wanted to keep them from successfully reclaiming withheld or paid-in money, I would salt the "tax honesty" community with passionate-seeming "legal researchers" who would warn anyone whose ear they captured that filing a 1040 is a bad idea for one reason or another...

Illuminating Anniversaries of this week:

July 16- In 1790, the District of Columbia is established as the capital of the United States.  In 1935, the world's first parking meter is installed Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  In 1945, the first nuclear weapon is exploded in a test at Trinity, New Mexico.  In 1957, John Glenn sets a transcontinental speed record, flying from California to New York in 3 hours, 23 minutes and 8 seconds.  In 1969, Apollo 11 is launched from the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Florida.  In 1999, JFK Jr., is killed in a plane crash in the Atlantic with his wife and sister-in-law.

Illuminating Anniversaries of this week:

July 17- In 1794, sixteen Carmelite nuns are guillotined by the Jacobins during the waning days of the Reign of Terror in revolutionary France.  In 1918, Tsar Nicholas II and his family and retainers are murdered by the Bolsheviks.  In 1955, Disneyland opens.  In 1996, TWA flight 800 mysteriously explodes off the coast of Log Island, resulting in the deaths of all 230 aboard.  In 1997, Woolworth's closes its last store, after 117 years in business.  In 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 is shot down over eastern Ukraine, apparently by the leaders of the United States-fomented coup which overthrew the elected government of Ukraine the previous February. The attack may have been a hit on the wrong plane in an effort to assassinate Russian leader Vladimir Putin, who was travelling the same route around the same time.

About The Author

Pete Hendrickson is possibly the most effective lawyer in history, even while never having set foot in a law school, nor ever being a card-carrying member of "the bar". He is the first American in history to secure a complete refund of Social Security and Medicare "contributions" withheld from his earnings (along with all other property taken for federal taxes); further, since 2003 students of his legal analyses and arguments in 'Cracking the Code- The Fascinating Truth About Taxation In America' (CtC), and its sequel, 'Was Grandpa Really a Moron?' have been routinely retaining and recovering billions of dollars which otherwise-- wrongly, but as a matter of course-- would have gone to federal or state government treasuries. This despite concerted efforts by government to suppress his work, and in some cases vigorously oppose the claims by his students.

Hendrickson is also a widely-read essayist on matters of politics, public policy and law; many of these works are collected in his second book, 'Upholding the Law And Other Observations'. He is a member of Mensa; an award-winning artist; and has paid his dues as a youth soccer coach. He is a long-time political activist as well, and has served as co-chair and platform convention delegate of Michigan's largest county Libertarian Party organization; as a consultant to the National Right to Work Foundation and Citizens for a Sound Economy; as a member of the Heartland Institute; and as a member of the International Society for Individual Liberty. He is a frequent radio-show guest on stations across the country.

Hendrickson's business career has included nearly a decade-and-a-half at the leading edge of the renewable-energy industry, both as Director of Purchasing and Materials Management and member of the R&D board at Starpak Energy Systems, the mid-west's then-largest solar heating and energy-recovery-and re-utilization company; and as founder and president of AFJ Inc., a high-efficiency lighting design, manufacture and installation firm.

Beginning in the mid-1990s and continuing for the twelve years before his present full-time focus on the restoration of the rule of law in America, Hendrickson directed purchasing activities for the $84 million-a-year multi-family-housing division of the Farmington Hills, Michigan branch of Edward Rose and Sons, with responsibility for 18,000+ apartments, direct supervision of 35 technicians and agents, and incidental authority over several hundred divisional workers. He also ran the division's 10 cable television earth-station and distribution systems in four states, and designed and administered the company's website.

On rather the other end of the spectrum, amidst these more mundane pursuits Hendrickson co-founded and was the primary creative force behind a small board- and card-game company that enjoyed a modest success for several years.

Hendrickson makes his home in southeast Michigan, with his wife and two children. He is currently working on his next book.
