 		I don't know...
He hasn't even acknowledged the email that I showed him.

Being that his family's involved one would think that he'd be concerned....

Give me my "stupid" sign, but is that quote what he sent you?

 		Yeah, sorry. Embarassed I don't get what just happened at all. I think I'll email Samuel and let him know that he'd get a little more cooperation from people if he didn't act like a raving lunatic when he asks for help.

 		lol It's okay. Smile
I've also sent him a reply.
I told him that his words would make sense if he gave a little more information.

Oh, new post by Greg, by the way. Seems there's a new bad guy: the Twitcher, he calls him...

 		Uh oh. I think I know how RF screwed up.

From the comments for Short Post:
Quote:
To her, Sammy is an old friend of the family. I did not want to upset or confuse her or have to explain things further, so I told her that a stranger had been making threats. Atl east she still has the comfort of trusting at least one person in her mind.

She used to work as a chiropractor, but she "retired" when our youngest daughter was born. Despite the similarity to his supposed line of work, she actually (supposedly) met Sammy at a Christmas party I was invited to.


If she did still trust Sam, he could have easily figured out what RF may have told her and called her saying that RF wanted him to check up on them and to give him their temp address.

There's also a new entry by Greg but I haven't read it yet.

 		Greg's story would be KICK ASS in a movie (actually, I think it's been done before...)
And yeah.... R.F. DID screw up BAD.
He shouldn't have lied... not about something like that.

 		Here's his e-mail response to my question about what is on the rest of the dream video and whether or not the audio from the video is important:

 		Huh. Well look at all that's happened since I left for one day. At first I thought Sam and RF's wife might have just met through RF; now it appears that Sam is an old "family" friend. In RF's response to my question, it's interesting to me that he says

Quote:
...she actually (supposedly) met Sammy at a Christmas party I was invited to.


Sounds like RF is not entirely trustful of his wife's claim that that was the first time she met Sammy. Add to that her claim that Sammy is an "old friend of the family," and I think RF's wife probably had some sort of connection to Sammy for a while.

As for providing the information to Sammy, I don't think RF spilled the beans regarding her whereabouts. There's nothing that gives that away; more likely it's that she contacted Sammy herself since RF implies that she trusts him and, for whatever reason, the one person she probably shouldn't trust is the one person that RF (bizarrely) intends that she still trust. Or is that what you guys meant by RF screwing up, because that is a real screw up (besides, doesn't everyone have a cell phone these days? Sammy could have also just called her on her cell, but if that's the case, why did he need us to help him?).

RF is clearly remembering some operation--whether he was a doctor or patient is not clear. Who is Rosalez? That's an odd name. Anyway, the mysterious driver probably is not the squatter, because the driver said he just left the city that day after being fired. Or at least, that's how I read it. The connection to the anti-war Animals song is certainly interesting; were these people involved in some military experiments on wounded soldiers? Or is the implication Sky Pilot=Red King?

Greg mentions the Twitcher as if we're supposed to remember who he is; did he mention this guy before?

 		Sky Pilot is about a chaplain who blesses the boys who got into a warzone, they come back and get angry because it's nothing they know it as.

Maybe Digmund (Red King, if you see the PBF comic you'll know what I'm talking about Razz ) was a chaplain?

Twitcher... doesn't sound very pleasant. Dream Cop, you mean? I've played horror games with the damned "Jacob twitch" effect, I hate it. It's scary, yet overused.

Have we seen or heard any more evil hands, the blue boy? Head trauma people?

What were those pictures, anyway?

EDIT: I'm starting to think that the Red King Project wasn't just a trip into La-La-Land. Something sinister is here.

I think the Twitcher is meant to be the green-eyed doctor we saw from RF's last nightmare who later ended up leaving that first black streak when he was going through RF's house. That would make this his third appearance on the blog if so.

I guess it's also possible Twitcher is just what they call the figures that jerkily move around and no one in specific.

 		So I can rest easy that Sammy is Samuel now and that R.F. nor Greg will ever see that face on the video.

I emailed Sammy asking for R.F.'s email address (I don't think anyone has asked him before). In the shout email he said he needed my help to get the whole video, and in the whisper email he seems to think he doesn't need my help anymore. I wonder if he has the whole video now?

The question "where?" from the Short Post
Quote:
It started screaming something I first thought was "Why?!", but I realized it was actually "Where?!"

I think the man that Sammy said he spoke to in the mirror is the same man that R.F. encountered in the Short Post. Sammy (or the man in the mirror that had control of Sammy) wanted to know where R.F.'s family was, so that's is what R.F. was screaming.

The images that used to be in the Important post have gone black now, or is it just me?

It's not just you. They've been blackened out. There are still images there, so it's not just that they were removed or some sort of blogspot problem. When I get time later, I'll see if there's something now hidden in them--unless someone else wants to do that?

Unlike RF or Sammy, Greg seems rather flippant about his experiences, doesn't he? For example:

Quote:
Like R.F., I had an absolutely loverly night.


Just FYI, "loverly" is best known from the song [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wouldn't_It_Be_Loverly]Wouldn't it be loverly[/url] from My Fair Lady. Possible reference; possibly not.

/EDIT why is my link not showing up correctly?

 		I think that Greg's just being sarcastic.
Being the notorious smartass I am, I say loverly all the time.

I checked to see if they were stegged but they test negative. The file name hasn't even changed. I had downloaded the images to my hard drive before the update last night, so we know when they were changed, just not why.

Woah, I'm lacking some software!
What program do you use to test stegs?
