The following is just repeated from my previous letter of
"'Parade of Reminders' Around the End of 2006" except that this part is with photos. I need to post this to make sure it is clear that I have
done my part sufficiently according to my consent to move to the eterntiy.
December 14, 2006, US Democratic senator Tim Johnson was hospitalized and underwent emergency brain surgery.
My friend Herry has a son, his first child, whose name is Timmy. So it was like reminding me that if I failed to concentrate to move to the eternity,
it would endanger others including the son of my friend Herry.

December 10, 2006, there was the news about the death of general Augusto Pinochet, former dictator of Chili. It was like reminding me
with the story that my brother Faisal often told me in the seventies, about a movie located in Chile. Among the dialogue in that
movie was that whenever a person is hindering the interest of the U.S. in any country then the CIA would not hesitate to diminish
such person.
Among other 365 days of the year 2006, Augusto Pinochet was chosen to die on December 10, 2006, like to add to
the 'parade of reminders' toward myself approaching the end of 2006. Since my existence in this world has the tendency of triggering disasters,
so I think I should also has the willingness to be diminished, for the good of this world.

December 30, 2006, former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was executed by hanging. Obviously it has nothing
to do with me, therefore I did not include it in my previous letter of .
Yet since my name is A.M. Firmansyah and my father's name is Hussein, so it was like related with my
consent to move to the eternity too. And the hanging took place shortly before 6 a.m., whereas 'six' in Indonesian word is "enam"
that sounds like"end A.M.". According to CNN, the execution was on the 56 days after the decicsion was made. 56 is the birth year of my
brother Faisal, so it was lilke to remind me that I should have the strong consent to mvoe to the eternity otherwise my borther could die.

Thank's,
