Jake trained by Mercenaries...

We got our weekly e-mail from Jake. First off we would like to thanks the Erickson's, Moss's and others who have supported Jake and thought of him. Now to give a little back ground on Jake's comment about being trained by Mercenaries. He has actually been trained by Mercenaries. A few years ago we flew some Professional Trackers in to teach some of us how to Man/Bigfoot track. Two of them are Special Ops Tracker/Counter Trackers among many other qualifications. Well one of them has also done Mercenary work all over the world. So that is why Jake always make that comment that we were trained by Mercenaries. Anyway here is his e-mail. Thanks again to everyone for your support it is greatly appreciated!! John...

hola ya'll! this wewek has been like all of the others. it seems like there all the same now. but this week something wierd happened. one of the cooks told me that i got a package and i was super pumped and i was so excited to open it on p day. but then later that day he hands me the package. it was a plastic bag with a box of alfajores, a box of bons bons, a t shirt and some wristbands. i was so confused. the chef said he found it out on the basketball court and it was just sitting there in the rain. when i looked closer i found a not that said " hope these goodies help" or something like that and at the bottom was signed the erickson family. how the heck did they get it here? if you can give me details that would be way nice. how is your thanksgiving today? mines going pretty good. tell all of the cousins and stuff i said hi and that i miss them all. have you told anyone the apostle story yet? oh and before i forget. in uruguay its the opposite. they dont recieve padded envelopes ONLY BOXES. i dont know why but hermana george told me. and it has to be less than $40. so just incase you want to send me stuff while im there (wink wink). and also todqay im supost to be getting a argentina fĂștbol jersy from my teacher. i hope he comes thru on it. it costs about 90 pesos. which is 20 bucks in american money. im excited. i wonder if i would get shot in uruguay for wearing it? and did i ever tell you the story of Elder Mcdaniels and Eldwer De hoyos? well they were in the last transfer and the very first time the went out proseylting they got off the bus and there was a big group of poeple and there was a dead body 20 feet in front of them. scary huh? good thing ive been trained by mercenaries.....they have some rules down here like never waer your back pack with both staps on your shoulders because it takes longer to take off during a robbery. fun stuff. and also we got a new area in prosyliting. its alot less busier than our last one but we still got 12 contacts and two men with their shirst off offered us some weed. great!!!! too bad i had to turn it down...just kidding. but it is a cool story though. and we almost died too because we were walking and we passed this dumpster full of bricks. but right as we passed some bricks were tossed out from above and missed my head by about a foot. that why the dumpster was there. i almost peed my pants. but it got my adrenaline going so i could be more energized. and also we invented a new verb in the spanish language. its "fiestar" it means to party. its so funny because it makes all of the teachers mad because its not a real word, but we think it is now. and we also conjugated it in all tenses and even in command form. its pretty much the best word ever. also thank the mosses for me because he gave me a letter and it was nice. did i also tell you that hermana flake told me to write her sister? im gonna marry her!!!! her name is crystal flake ;) ....well bye

Yo amo ustedes, jake........ or in other words ¡El Guapo!
