Any idea who Bandages is? I can't tell if he's IG and being overly cryptic, or OOG and enjoys stating the blindingly obvious. As in, "We need help." Rolling Eyes

Well reading it seems that we need more people....

Can anyone spread the word on uF or myspace or something?!

Maybe it's the only way forward. Just grasping at straws...

Alright to get back on track, can anyone post the youtube videos of Isshestillalive and get those pictures of that info from ARGN? My computer is just horrible and won't let me. All this will help us get back on track I think.

Ok, so ARGN received a package for BONES. In it was the first video that we've already seen here. It also had a couple of extra items. I'm reposting those here just to consolidate things.

First off is the DVD. Contents are stuff we've already seen, but written in marker on the DVD is this:
Quote:
I can see Past Skin...37218


The numbers are written a little above and to the right of the bottom line of writing, with what looks like a short line pointing to the ellipse at the end of the text?

Googling 37218 turns up that it's the zip code for Nashville, Tennessee. Perhaps that's where the picture of the girl was taken?

There's also a newspaper headline clipping and a ripped photograph, attached below.

Hate to double post, but apparently Despoiler got a BONES package too.

The contents are mostly the same as the ARGN package: the first BONES video, containing what looks like the same puzzle piece, and the ripped photo of the girl. However, it has no newspaper clipping and the written message on the DVD is different. This one says:

I'm fair certain the words on the DVDs are big swinging anagrams.

In the number...
Because of the "SOU, NY" reference, I thought I'd mention that the number 37218, when converted to base36 is "SPU". Maybe nuthin', but kinda close.

Something I noticed:

Think back to the vi bones video. There was a map of North America behind Mark, along with a few red push-pins located at the NE corner of the map.

Possible locations for people who were abducted?

Despoiler's envelope had "a New York postmark and a return address listed only as "SOU NY" (I think)" (note no comma). From the scans we've seen it seems the PM has pretty bad handwriting. Maybe we could talk SpaceBass into scanning his envelope for us?

Sound Ninja, I noticed the map w/ pushpins too. The two green ones appear to be around NYC and maybe Boston? One of the red ones is just west of Toronto, the other one is a little further north where there doesn't seem to be much. I didn't see any near Nashville, but then our boy's head could be blocking it.
