Chapter 34: 1995 Daily Life and Impacts in Panther Part 1

The income from this year is $145.738 Million; after the 35% taxes are removed, we have $94.73 Million in funds. After Ms. Lee's attorney fee, our profit is $85.257 Million.

This year we have to make sure that the FBI prevents the OK City bombing, and Selena's murder (by getting her murderer arrested for fraud instead). As well as having the UN intervene in the Bosnian civil war sooner, so the Baltic peace agreement could happen; and also have them attempt to prevent the Rwanda massacre. We also will warn Japan about the earthquake and Sarin attack. We will alert the UK about Nick Leeson's risky trading, the predicted riots in Brixton, and the Montserrat Volcanic eruption. We also forecast that poor sanitation in Zaire will lead to an epidemic.

We will also warn our government about the forecasted heat wave and how it hit Chicago especially hard. Locally, we will warn about the hurricanes, tornadoes, and the earthquake and Mayfest hailstorm predicted this year.

For our efforts in Kpop, we will advise GM Agency that they will need Mikey eventually since we always recommend starting with more members so that the eventual member departing doesn't cause issues.

Then, the media discussed our support for Korean and Japanese music and film. The negative side of the press tried to accuse us of trying to monopolize the industry, so i had Ms. Lee respond in the positive newspapers that we're doing the opposite. We're attempting to provide free services and only taking groups and artists we think are at risk of unfair contracts and management. We also pledge to keep the majority of profits (minimum of 75%) in whatever country the profit is earned. i will also have Ms. Lee push through a "reserve" copyright for the K-pop songs that i'm plagiarizing from the original artists to let me designate the original authors as the copyright owners but allow me to use the copyrights for non-profit (school) use. i will then help the original writers produce the songs for their original artists.

This is the first year that i dealt with the "teach to the test" issue. i will have Ms. Lee push through a "progress" education system that will test your knowledge annually, which is the only way to pass you out of required classes. This is to prevent Bush's "No Child Left Behind," where he makes testing easier but teaching worse. We will push students to progress through as many significant subjects as possible and link the grades to possible college credits. On the other hand, we will not force students to go to college. Instead, we will push college classes needed for their intended profession. When the students are outside the significant professions, we will direct them to internships and apprenticeships instead since those paths are cheaper and more beneficial for most jobs.

Politically, we will also push a limited "free healthcare" agenda to Clinton to sponsor free birth control and STD checks and couch it to Republicans as the most acceptable version of abortion prevention. We will also request that abortion-free locations of Planned Parenthood be built close to high schools (and some by middle schools when no high school is close). Since these tend to be the most sexually promiscuous times for most people of my generation.

Most of the DART lines in Dallas are now established, so they finished the UNT Dallas extension to the Blue line this year. The TRE also finished the TRE Valley View Double Track Project (21 years early), allowing AMTRAK to use more of the TRE track instead of the freight rail. They will also start the hybrid rail lines like the TEXRail line, all using electric diesel multiple units (DMU). The TEXRail expansion will begin construction from DFW airport through Grapevine to the downtown stations that already connect to the TRE, which will finish in 1997 (22 years early). Then, the 2nd stage will split into two parts: from downtown Fort Worth TEXRail/TRE station to the Medical District and TCU in 2000 (25 years early), as well as the Cotton Belt (Silver Line) extension from DFW airport through the Downtown Carrollton (Green Line) station and terminating in Plano on the opposite side of the Red Line to also be completed in 2000 (25 years early).

DART will also begin construction on the A train from the Trinity Mills (Green Line) station to Downtown Denton, which will be completed in 1997 (16 years early) and expanded to Downtown Carrollton in 1999 (26 years earlier). The final rail expansions of the originally planned systems will be TEXRail's expansion to Tarleton State University, to be completed in 2002 (24 years early), and the planned Light Rail (D2) in Downtown Dallas to relieve the bottleneck, to be completed in 1999 (26 years early). They will also partner with the non-profit MATA(McKinney Avenue Transit Authority) and the City of Dallas to sponsor future expansions to their Trolley lines. The first expansion to the DART station at Cityplace will be completed in 1996 (6 years early), the second expansion to be close to the DART station at St. Paul will be completed in 1997 (18 years early), and then linking to the Streetcar and St. Paul station in 1998.

To improve my mobility in Panther, i will have Ms. Lee hire a driver (unrelated to anyone in Panther) to take me (and my sex partners) from the house by the school to our homes. i will also get her to lease yearly versions of the Buick LeSabre to be the car used with me until they go out of production in 2005. i like my comfortable and safe old man's car. i will also get her to coordinate with the Cain Center from Athens to co-finance another location by the Rainbow school, Hill Vista Community College in Dallas, and my after-school house in Dallas to be completed by 1997. Due to our financial and political support, the Rainbow School has completed construction and opened a few years early. We will pressure DISD to redirect some of the funds toward the event locations for the district that they would have completed later. We will also encourage them to partner with the Cain Center for the other services.

This year, our business expansions will be in clothing that i would wear on a new label called Labelless. This label will create offices and warehouses to buy various cloth materials where they are made and export them to whatever country the product will be sold, to be produced in the closest metropolitan area to the final sales location. While entirely local production is unrealistic, we can make sure that our products are manufactured locally since we choose to pay the same high wages regardless of what part of the world we are in. We will employ designers to create durable clothes with variable materials and cuts with prices based on the materials used.

Our initial sales locations will be boutiques in the metropolitan areas of the US, South Korea, and Japan to start with, but our focus will be geared toward eventual internet sales. We will offer straightforward designs that i would wear for men, almost all in single color or pinstripe variations, primarily slacks, button-up shirts of various styles, vests, and a few blazers (but not many since i only wear those if i have to be in a wedding). We would dip into the designs i like for women, primarily sleek dresses and skirts and Lolita/Victorian fashions. We would also offer on-demand outfits for things like cosplay outfits for anyone. Hopefully, this will pull the cosplay community into being our employees at either Labelless (for creators) or Kitsune's (cosplayers). i will also get Ms. Lee to employ screenwriters and contract the authors for the David Eddings books and Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern series. i intend to make movies for these series for me to enjoy regardless of profit.

Originally my future brother-in-law, James, started training for the army in Kentucky during this year. He didn't try to enlist in this life because he was already making plenty of money, so instead, we will still visit my adopted aunt and two of her three kids in Tennessee. While we're there, i will get my aunt to join Kitsune's in Nashville as an assistant manager. i'll only see her and her oldest daughter one more time in Texas in the 2000s, but i still want them to have a comfortable life. After we return from Tennessee, i will have the annual band competition at Six Flags. As a non-competitive person, i don't care about the results, but our band usually did pretty well in competitions. It was never the top spot but almost always in the top 3.

Speaking of Six Flags, since i had both a heart murmur and low blood flow, i couldn't ride any rides at Six Flags without passing out in my original life. My better health in this life makes the rides more accessible, but since i'm still not an adrenaline junkie, i still lack enthusiasm for this form of entertainment.
