This may be the place that HHR mentioned in her email to konamouse as a safe place for Sammeeees to meet and chat. It would make sense if Betty has to friend us..


Except, if that's the "safe place to meet and chat" it means that anyone who wants to do so would have to join The Horror That Is MySpace.

Ugh. Confused


Double Ugh. I want nothing to do with that place... Guess I'll have to get my updates through those of you that do.

I'm not sure how you found that. I tried to replicate the search and it did not lead me to anything on MySpace. While in MySpace I could not find anything using sammeeeee, sammeeeees, bettyisasammeeeee, ruasammeeeee, nor spoocheeeee.

Lots of great stuff!


Thanks for the summary!

The one thing I would add is today's change to the link at the bottom of http://misteralanjohnson.blogspot.com/ that now says "AND GIVE YOURSELF YET ANOTHER HAND, SAMMEEEEES"

which leads to: http://thehistoryofpeeps.blogspot.com/ or "The History of a Man Called Peeps." The source code says "documents distributed by Mr. T.M."

oh wow! Just checked the source code again to verify that and I think this has now been added:

Wonder why all the concern about safety??


Isn't someone trying to kill the Sammees, or did I just dream that?

This gives us a weird vid from Alan Johnson who is apparently looking for Peeps. Plus a LOT of black vid at the last half.

The YouTube profile gives us this:
http://buckjonesisgoneforever.blogspot.com/

Remember the Buck Jones pic on flickr that went away??

 		Peeps
From buckjonesisgoneforever.blogspot:
Quote:
I turn, my picture fades,
and darkness has turned to grey
Watching through windows,
you're wondering if I'm okay
Secrets, stolen, from deep inside,
The drum beats out of time...

If you're lost, you can look
and you will find me,
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you,
I'll be waiting,
Time after time


Was Peeps in a mental hospital? There is a photo of a rock with "The Danvers State Hospital Cemetery"

Quote:
Before this goes any further, I urge you to step forward. I don't want to involve any more innocent people, Peeps. I will tell our "old friends" that you are no longer Buck Jones. Buck Jones is gone forever. I spoke with Dr. Kinder. She is worried about you and wants to speak with you. If you will not contact her, I will arrange for her to speak to you. We only want what is best for everyone. You know that. Your friends are safe. Let me assure you that no harm will come to them. I am worried about them too. I feel that perhaps they should soon be protected from you and from themselves. My only hope is that I can repair the harm that you have done.

{spec} Well the Danvers State Hospital (Insane Asylum) closed in 1992. This link http://www.danversstateinsaneasylum.com/home.html, shows some interior pics very similar to one we saw on the History of Man called Peeps. I would venture that they are same place. {/spec}

 		Danvers State Hospital is apparently a real place outside Boston.

http://www.danversstateinsaneasylum.com/home.html


If you look in the "Gallery" under Patient Artwork, you'll find the same Buck Jones drawing as in the YouTube vid.

If you watch the RealPlayer vid under "Media," you'll see a longer version of the YouTube vid showing images from Danvers.

This all seems to be real stuff.

EDIT: simultaneous post Smile Anyway, it seems we have two new potential characters: Dr. Kinder and Mr. T. Mann

FWIW, those are lyrics from the Cyndi Lauper song 'Time After Time'

 		From the YT profile:

Quote:
If you are reading this then all is well. And now it is time to tell you why I have sought your assistance. I am searching for a man called Peeps. I must find this man as soon as possible. Each minute that passes could lead Peeps into situations that he cannot and should not be exposed to. I should warn you that Peeps is a deeply troubled man. He is also terribly manipulative. Where do we begin to look? Well, Peeps is a creative sort. In his spare time Peeps likes to use his very active imagination. Peeps is a writer. He is also an artist. His doctors have found that he responds best to visual stimulation. So, I started here. This is my idea of "fishing" for Peeps. He has an unusual mind. So, I (with the help and filmmaking expertise of my associate Mr. Mann) have presented a bit of his past to share with you and to remind Peeps of where he once was. I don't know how else to reach him. I am scanning the internet for him. He cannot help himself. I am certain that he will come to the surface and reach out to some fellow Sammeeeees. Wherever you Sammeeeees might be, I think that is where I will find Peeps. I am sorry that I cannot provide more guidance, but at the moment there is not more to go on. Let me go on record here and tell you that I trust that your skills will help solve this mystery and bring Peeps back to me. As you move forward, I would appreciate it if you could keep me in the loop about your activities. If you should hear from anyone who is in contact with Peeps (or Peeps himself), please email me or phone me immediately. I will continue to do my best to find Peeps. Is there more to know? Of course. But this is a start. Let us get to know each other and see what the next few days bring to us.
Cheers to all of us!
Mr. Alan Johnson
P.S. Also note that Peeps has a strange passion for Cyndi Lauper.
Where I've Been
Companies: Otis Elevator
What I Like To Do
Favorite Music: I like music.


So Peeps likes Cindy Lauper

 		This is one strange video.

At the end it says "Dsiao5." So far I've not had any luck deciphering it. Any ideas?

That video is most likely not IG, but seems to be part of an independent (OOG) project documenting Danvers Asylum. So, I'm not sure there's anything to decipher.

Nice thought to read the whole profile!

So now we wait to be contacted by Peeps and try to keep Mr. Alan Johnson in the loop? Peeps is an escaped/former mental patient, it sounds like? And I guess we're also supposed to be suspicious of A.J. since he's "dangerous" according to our other friend Betty. Hrm.
