 		Well, the new 'art message' still uses the same code as before because I can spot VIRGINIA in the top left block of the lower smaller multi-block on the right (if that makes any sense).

The damn orangey-pink colors are so hard to distinguish but it seems to me that the words are all scrambled this time, perhaps in mini-blocks of 8 letters corresponding to the artwork.

 		well it seems that he is stalking her pretty hard:

While he was quiet everywhere, I tweeted:

draghkar wrote:
@RUArtist you need to take action, Ginny is going on a date with a Jerome, check her Facebook Profile


upon which he now replied:
RUArtist wrote:
@Draghkar I am aware of this. I saw him tonight.


And Ginny got his artwork its supposedly on canvas, and tied with a brown ribbon:

 		I have been trying to decode the latest "art message":

For what I have called mosaic # 1 (with the blue box near upper left a "w", not an "r" or "c"), I have rearranged each set of 8 letters to get:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
all that w
e see or se
em is but a
dream wit
in a pain hin a pain - edited to add "h"
ted dream


For what I have called mosaic # 2, I have rearranged each set of 8 letters to get:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
i was neve
r really i
nsane exc
ept when m
y heart wa
s touched


For what I have called mosaic # 3, I have rearranged each set of 8 letters to get:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Virginia
i aim a ros i so admir (change an "a" to a "d")
e from afa
r we shall
soon meet
by the sea


I have determined the letters in the 3 pictures as follows (except for the blue box near upper left of mosaic # 1 being a "w", not an "r" or "c") (also except for an "a" in upper right of mosaic # 3 is changed to a "d"):

 		and another FB update form ginny:

Quote:
Wow, what a weekend. I had to go to class and work today, so this is the first I've been able to share.

I went on 2 different first dates this weekend. One was actually quite fun. His name is Bryan and we went paddle boating, which I had never done before. We talked about doing something else later this week. I hope he calls.

Second date - what a train wreck! First we were supposed to meet at noon on Saturday and he was over 30 minutes late. Didn't bother to text or email either. I felt like such a dork standing on the street corner. Then we decide to go to a nearby diner to get some lunch and ice cream. I order a salad and a shake, and he has a huge burger with rings and a sundae - twice the amount of food I ordered. But, here's the worst: when the check comes it sits on the edge of the table while we talk. And when there's a lull in the conversation (which was REALLY awkward) he takes the check, slides it across the table and says, "Are going to get this?" o_O I normally offer to split any costs but oh my! What was he thinking?!

I hope I see Bryan again. I'm not too sure about any of my other POF matches right now.



hope the second date was not our artist friend.. :S
Have not seen an update from him, so where is he?

 		Jumpin in.
Just caught up all of this, decided to have some fun and stop lurking. Smile

Sent RU a tweet

Quote:
@ruartist Has your Virginia 'touched' your heart yet? Or more pressingly, does she make you insane?


Also, perhaps we should try to talk Virginia in to taking a beach trip sometime soon? (She loves the beach according to her FB and POF) So that she can finally meet RU 'by the sea'?

 		Just a couple things from our Sweet Virginia on FB.

First, a comment on her last update

Quote:
Train wreck's name began with an H. Hope I never see him again! And this older guy (at least for me) has started chatting with me. Seems to be a die-hard old school romantic, which is off these days. Will see....


Then an update from yesterday

Quote:
Guys, I texted Bryan but he didn't respond! SadSadSad It had been 4 days and my friends at school thought I should try to reach out. I thought we had a good time.


Also, funny story, I think RU is mad at me. See,

 		Several tweets from Ginny yesterday and today:
Quote:
So, I'm going on a date Friday with a new guy, Robert. Let's hope he doesn't disappear like Bryan.

Quote:
Funny, he wants to meet at this place I've already been, the Annabell Lee Tavern. Kinda odd place for a 2st date, but oh well! Smile

Quote:
Bryan's number is just going to voice mail now. (Yes, I've called a few more times.) Worried something is wrong.

Hmm, a bit of foul play perhaps?
