 		the so-called clue bat reads like more obfuscation - couldn't "they", without coming right out and saying so, have found a more succinct way of hinting that you should, for instance, focus on "As A Man Thinketh"?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The biker in the German helmet is obviously Amber Tamblyn's dad.

Dennis Hopper? Wasn't he that washed-up actor who went around confounding rodeo crowds with his Russian Suicide Death Chair shtick back in the early 80s?

that's not a cryptic post - that's "The Walrus and the Carpenter" by Lewis Carroll (from Through the Looking-Glass)

 		hi guys i had some real life issues going on but i'm back now, and decently caught up i think.

however, i've noticed some things that have been mentioned here and i don't know if they're being kept quiet on purpose or not, because there is NO WAY you guys missed this, and it's not mentioned here or the wiki.

i've left the info with munki, just in case this is some kind of secret, so talk to her about it when you get a chance, because i have to sleep.

<3

edit: nevermind munki found where it was on the wiki. now i feel dumb.

"The Walrus and the Carpenter"
looks verbatim except 3 instances of the word "four" changed to "six" ... so "sixsixsix" (for ref, in the 8th & 9th stanzas)

 		Oh ho, see, that is why I don't do any thinking after midnight! Interesting, though. WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

 		The post is just for visual representation. Here are the only changes to the poem that I could find

Quote:
But six young Oysters hurried up,[originally: four]
Six other Oysters followed them, [originally: four]
And yet another six more; [originally: four]

Of cabbages--and Kings-- [Changed capitalization: k-> K]


Shall we be trotting home again? [Added: (')]

The last two probably do not mean much.

So we have the title of the blog: Think think think... and 666

More than you ever wanted to know about the number 666.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/666_(number) <-- Copy and paste: the brackets screw up the link.

A few tid-bits from wikipedia...

Quote:
Main article: Number of the Beast

In the Bible, the Book of Revelation (13:17-18 ) cryptically asserts 666 to be "the number of a man," associated with the beast, an antagonistic creature that appears briefly about two-thirds into the apocalyptic vision. The calculation of the number was a challenge that has inspired many would-be mystics and prophets ever since.


Quote:
In other fields

* 666 is the magic sum, or sum of the magic constants of a six by six magic square, any row or column of which adds up to 111.


Of course there are TONS of 666 related wikipedia pages I only picked out a few.

Quote:
The sum of all the numbers on a roulette wheel is 666.

I did not know that. My Grammy was right: "Gambling is the Debil" Oh and "the Foosball is the Debil"

 		777 - The neighbor of the beast!

Sorry, I couldn't resist. Wink

Seriously though, I wonder if it's not 666 but 222 (the difference between the two versions) which should bring a significantly less "busy" list of uses.

In the iRC channel - Schwinn was speculating the same thing. He found an address in San Francisco here. Apparently it's for sale .. no names we know - but I'm afraid this is too much speculation again.. lol

 		oh yeah, and could this possibly be relevant -
12/3/97 "Mathew in the Morning" w/Brian Bricker -KXFX 101.7 Santa Rosa, CA
? http://members.tripod.com/~adapa/APPEARANCES
? http://members.tripod.com/~adapa/

so we can only surmise that in 1997 Brian Bricker, in Santa Rosa, participated in a radio interview with C.L. Turnage

http://members.tripod.com/~adapa/INTRODUCTION

Quote:
C.L.Turnage is a free lance writer who has an extensive background in history and ancient languages. She has studied over 300 translations of ancient Mesopotamian and Vedic Indian texts, the Hebrew/Greek scriptures, Egyptian writings, and extra-biblical books such as "Enoch the Prophet" as background material for three of her books.


scroll down to the bottom of the Discoveries by C.L. Turnage section - item #23 - The real meaning of the numbers 616 & 666

666 is probably the other perspective on sun/sol hinted at earlier - 666 being the total of all of the squares of the SOL 111 magic square

here's a link to a satanist site with more crud on 666/square/gematria

http://www.thefirewithin.dk/library/someessays.htm

BTW - habrud is the pits

 		JJDeMolay quotes "Loser" again:
Quote:
JJDeMolay: Oh! More clever, clever bunnies to contend with. but...I'm a driver! I'm a winner! Things are gonna change, I can feel it! (eleven)


The little 'eleven' at the end confuses me, though. Maybe it has something to do with the new post at King's blog? Title has been updated to 'Un-Cleared 050109'

the 1680 (?) block of Alcatraz Ave, which is in Berkeley/Oakville, California.

 		@grady - turnage is oog imo

@classical - that's "1600" not "1680", st signs show block numbers not middle of block numbers in ca. building in the back is "alcatraz mart". if u were in car where that pic was taken, you'd have to turn... the st continues, but there are great big cement blocks & a "do not enter" sign... upside down stop sign would indicate "don't stop" tho (imo) ....
