 		from what I can tell so far, Patty doesn't know of Oppmer on LJ, she isn't his friend nor is her hers, so it shouldn't show up at all

 		Patty & Betty - I think

ETA: I had written Sara a little while back, see if I'd get an answer (and start the list of active characters this time)
Quote:
Sara,

I do hope you remember me, Red from last fall. I heard that Thomas
moved out from your house & is so very isolated in Maine right now.
Would I be rude if I asked what brought the change on? I thought that
things were going well for him. I am afraid that he is having the
hardest time of all in getting past all the life that led up to us
finding you last fall.

Please drop me a line & let me know how you are doing & anything else
you are willing to share

AND THE REPLY!!!
Quote:
RedHatty,

I'm sure you sent me this email with only good intentions, but I'm sorry I cannot tell you the answers to your questions. I would suggest that you direct these questions to my brother, Thomas. Only Thomas is able to tell anyone what happened and what may still be happening. Something is haunting him, Redhatty, and I don't know what it is. I suppose Thomas felt it was best to isolate himself from the world in order to deal with whatever is bothering him. It was hard for me to say goodbye to my brother so soon after finding him, but some of his behavior was frightening me and my son. There were nights when Thomas would run down the hallway of my house screeching the name Alan. I'm sure this has nothing to do with my son, named Alan, and everything to do with my dead brother of the same name. This screeching was too much for my little boy. Our life was a cycle of coping with these night terrors and me dealing with young Alan's ever growing fear of his uncle. Thomas would not tell me anything about these terrors. In fact, when I asked him about what was going on, he could not speak, only tears would come. I think about Thomas every single day. I do hope he can find his way. My Mom misses her son terribly. Alan misses his sweet uncle. So do I. If you speak with Thomas, please tell him we love him. I have tried to contact him by email, but he has never responded.

Sarah Walker


Night terrors, the changing pages of AJ's Blog, Patty & Betty getting a bit too chummy, Tim Mann's silence, Nedd's - well Nedd doesn't change Smile - Looks like the makings of a great second act!

 		Red - you & I had the same idea, but got very different responses.

Hi Sara,
I don't know if you remember me, but I was one of the folks who helped
bring Thomas back into your family last year. How was the reunion?
I hope you all had a great holidays and things are going wonderful for
you & your family. Before we all went our separate ways, Thomas said
he was planning a garden - did he start one at your house? How is he
doing?

I'm sorry to tell you that Thomas is no longer living with us. He has moved to Maine. If you need to reach him his email address is peepsisasammeeeeeSPLATyahoo.com. If you hear from Thomas, will you please let me know. We have not heard from him and we are very worried.

I wonder if the PMs are going to just ignore the fact that his post will show up on her friends list


I don't think that Patricia/Cathy has a livejournal (and doesn't know about Oppmer). The question will be if he can keep his updated MySpace from her. On the other hand, I didn't get the impression she was very good with the internet. She managed to figure out the flickr posting (but all those book pictures are gone now) and email. But that one night she was suppose to post MrAJ's trivia night she was pretty late with it. So maybe she doesn't know how to get into computer use history? Maybe Dwin is better at hiding his tracks than she is at finding them?

We should suggest he not confide anything in Betty at this time.

Why did Betty lead us to the updated misteralanjohnson.blogspot? What does she know? Scary.

Mr. Alan Johnson added another entry on his MySpace blog:

Quote:
May 21, 2007

what you don't know can hurt you

and god in whose wings
i hoped simple flowers
oil spread upon the face
of a wooden moon
the loss
unreal, empty
the seat the seal
white sheets unbloodied
proof of Touchless dawn
picked at sunlight
snow, longing, love and stones
and slip as your dark eyes
eclipsed me all
you smiled, the pool is empty
pale form of joy
without you there's no morning dawn
no arise, no Rose lies
beyond the smudged sky of your eyes
but lIlies hide
like snow fading oceans
sealife dazzling with tiny lights
as the river is the sea
and is No more
whilst clouds drift by
while flowers die
god I heard Them say is love
i dreamed Your eyes reflect my blood

Does somebody know what this means? Is it a poem, maybe?


Vigenere Cipher - key: "TRINITY"

Batter my heart, three person'd God. Beyond this, I have no clues whatever.

I've always been fascinated by this poem.

 		So what does an English poet have to do with this?????

I would think that the original change to the blogspot was done by Mr AJ. But does that include the vig code? Or did that get added afterwards. Why did Betty know about the change (and thus lead us back to the new blog)??? She just got back from a trip to England and is staying with Cathy & Kevin now. In Kevin's livejournal he posted that Betty took a phone call from Trinket (but went outside so he couldn't hear anything of their conversation).

 		Comment on my MySpace page from Mr. A.J.:

Quote:
Per me si va ne la città dolente,
Per me si va ne l'etterno dolore,
Per me si va tra la Perduta Gente.
Giustizia mosse il mio Alto Fattore;
Fecemi la Divina Podestate,
La Somma Sapïenza e 'l Primo Amore.
Dinanzi a me non fuor cose create
Se non etterne, e io etterno duro
Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate


It's from Dante Allegheri

 		The entire quote, "Batter my heart, three person'd God. Beyond this, I have no clues whatever.", is attributed to Oppenheimer as he explained how he chose the name "Trinity" for the first test of a nuclear weapon.
From wikipedia...
Quote:
Why I chose the name is not clear, but I know what thoughts were in my mind. There is a poem of John Donne, written just before his death, which I know and love. From it a quotation: 'As West and East / In all flatt Maps—and I am one—are on, / So death doth touch the Resurrection.'" ("Hymn to God My God, in My Sicknesses"). Oppenheimer continued, "That still does not make a Trinity, but in another, better known devotional poem Donne opens, 'Batter my heart, three person'd God;—.' Beyond this, I have no clues whatever."


So, I'm guessing that whoever put that code on Mr. AJ's blog knows Dwin's new nickname.

Dun Dun Dunnn.

ETA: which is also the song playing on his Myspace
