 		Hmm not that it adds much, but Hernando has replied to my last message (which I can't recall atm, and I can't access Facebook until I get home).

Re: About the Eklipse Scholarship

I am going back to Spain today. galveston was a waste of time. I am currently in New Orleans, i was here before Rita, things changed a lot Sad.

on regards to my dreams ill get back to you later. someone pointed me to some drawings some other person did about his dreams, which are kinda spooky because they are very similar.


So of any importance is that apparently Galveston was a waste. Kind of odd considering it was mentioned on the book cover from the one LISA email. Unless Hernando was going to Galveston to get the last copy of the book that LISA told us to get first. If that is the case, then Hernando may still be working with Eklipse...

Alright, good to see something that at least looks like it is tied to XIII.

I was sadly disappointed with what happened to his last game...

Good to see the same regulars of his games already here and on top of things.


For the benefit of a total newbie like myself - what did happen to his last game, and what was it?

 		Perhaps Hernando IS working for Eklipse and he already found the book, and now he's trying to downplay Galveston's importance. Misdirection, perhaps?

 		Connection between Cthulhu and HAARP?
Does anyone has an idea about connections between Cthulhu and HAARP?

On friendster ((http://profiles.friendster.com/1047731)) I found a guy called Erich, about whom another person writes:

"Erich is in league with Cthulhu to
take over the entire planet. Erich's people
come from a species known as Cephalopods,
And Species rhymes with Feces ergo
excrement. Very little is known about Erich's
origins, but Cephalopods Have very soothing
voices, lulling their victims into a false since of
security. And then giving them a new destiny,
one of Erich's bidding. Cephalopods
communicate with one another through
sophisticated patterns of high frequency
pulses. The US government is running a black
project called H.A.A.R.P, ( High-frequency
Active Auroral Research Program) to block
these transmissions from the cephalopods. But
it is injuring all sea life around the world. The
GOV has found a new purpose for H.A.A.R.P.
Conspiracy theorists feel that Erich and
Cthulhu are plotting to take over the H.A.A.R.P
program in their nefarious plan to enslave
mankind. "

 		 Revelations from Hernando
I had a very long and VERY enlightening coversation with Hernando on facebook. He gave details about Eklipse Global's (EG) facility he visited, the legend behind the book we got from Lisa, and more on his dreams. Here are some excerpts (the whole chat log is attached).

Hernando on EG:
Quote:
oh i dunno, they have a hand on everything i think. i just got to go to the tenome labsin that big island to the northin the center of a lake. that place was creepy, but coolthey had a lot of monkeys there

well when i asked why the place was in the middle of an island the tour guide said something like "we dont want anyone to disrupt our great projects"but later clarified "animal rights activists, they are a pain"

they had stuff on their headsand stuff with their brains for research pretty bloody, i stayed away from those placesno wonder they were in an island, theyd dint want PETA around. explains the armed guards. i only got to see like 10% of the facility


Our conversation about LISA LISA:

12:06pmHernando
O_0 still

12:07pmBelle
what's the legend? cause apparently Eklipse Global is looking for copies of the book too

12:07pmHernando
has to be a fake.


Hernando recounts the legend of the book:
Quote:
Well the story goes that it was some book in france. Something forbiden knowledge or something. well the book turned out in spain it was translated into spanish there and then sent to the new world. But the catholic church wanted to have it, part of the reason behind the inquisition the book turned out in mexico, where it was given to santa anna. and nobody knows after that or what the book was or so they say. popular thing here in valencia

Nobody knows [what the forbidden knowledge is], but people would tend to go insane, or things would happen to those who possesed it. here in valencia theres a house of a powerful man who owned it, everyone in the household was found hanging and the book missing. I dont remember [the man's name], it happend in the 1600s. Don something. is a local thing on a small town outside of valencia. ill go ask around next week for you.


About the book's location:
Quote:
12:13pmHernando
so the book is in texas? or was at one point, san jacinto? whats there?

12:14pmBelle
i have no idea... this person LISA LISA who emailed me thinks Eklipse is lookin for the last copy of it for some reason. she wants me to help them find it before they do

12:15pmHernando
why do they want it orwhy does EG wants it

12:15pmBelle
i don't know... but if it WERE real... it sounds like whoever had it would wield a lot of power

12:16pmHernando
well spain was at its climax of power when the book was there. now is in the us. makes sense but... well i dunno. i dont beleive in that kind of stuff


About Angel Garcia, the dreams, and Hernando's Blog!!:

Games= Conspiracy '08, Vengance is their Duty (VITD) and 'Are You Following This.' The first one concluded successfully. As for the other two, kinda like this. But I'm actually not too worried about this one. Headline.

@echoPath>> Or mind control?

Necronomicon.

@lynchdada>> I looked for storms, weather control, etc. in the Cthulhu mythos page (and elsewhere) on wikipedia, but didn't find anything. Didn't look long though, so...

One of the (presumed) mascots of Miskatonic U. is "the Fighting Cephalopods." Thus my siggy Smile

 		Just got a response from Sonia/Sofia:

Quote:
lol
Oh, you know, Sonia/Sonya is a pet name of Sofia in Russia.
Is like Maria = Masha or Alex = Sasha etc.

I like it, so you can call me Sonia.

Sonia Smile
P.S. Who is your friend?
cu

So there we have it. I have also received a handful of messages from EG on twitter. Nothing important yet other than they know about the other Lisa and that they say they are good not bad.

And Joanna just accepted my friend request on facebook.
She has a new graffiti piece and the poor rabbit looks dead or drunk or both!

ETA: I showed Angel the book. (since he is in texas and all) He says he has seen it but he doesn't know where or how or why.

 		Ok, so I had a long chat with Angel, mainly covering his dreams.

The chat log is rather big, so I'm just going to attach it. I likely wont quote out things, because there's a lot that may be useful.

 		Well I havent chatted with anyone but I did get a response from Angel about my cuthulu email.

Quote:
yeah people keep telling me that but... is only fiction isnt it? i think i might just be crazy in the head Smile


I replied with

Quote:
Yeah pure fiction. But interesting reads

I wouldn't say your crazy in the head! We all have weird dreams at some point in time. Perhaps your dreams are trying to tell you something? Specialy if they are reoccuring.

 		New post up at Angel's blog. No text, just a 'video' for "The Devil Went Down to Georgia." Despite that Charlie Daniels Band graphic, it's actually a heavier rock cover by Steve Ouimette. That took me quite by surprise, let me tell you, lol.
