 		I assume the radio thing is totally OOG.

 		The url on the shirt is CBCRADIO3.COM. Just another way to get to radio3.cbc.ca.

 		Ty Reasonableman. I saw that & also used some other things like "cbcrad1o3" with running wild etc getting 404's.

@Hint?: This is an over generalization, but ARG'ers are a suspicious and sometimes paranoid group of peeps. Your name and your guest status here make me wonder a few things, but I will give you the benefit of doubt (please don't be offended or take this personally). With that stated, this is not diocletians court and there is really no reason to be so cryptic as uF is strictly OOG. So if you have in fact found a clue that is "juicy", by all means & for the love of things holy, just spoiler your findings. Again, no offense intended Cool

ETA:
Lisa posted a quick update "SUNDAY". Looks like Sunday is the day to get the proper scoop from her.

 		Lisa finally posted a new blog post. Seems like there will be an update on Sunday night.

 		Episode 5 Prelude
I'm about to give up on this Episode 5 thing. The closest I got to "juicy" was that the Author of Running Wild is J G Ballard. At first I thought, Ah maybe his first name is "Jacob". Alas, his name is (was) James. The only thing that comes close to relating to Ennead is that he died on 19/4/09 (which is to say that it is not related at all really...)

I echo the sentiments of other, Hint?, please either spoiler it or put us out of our misery! At present it seems like a wild goose chase!

 		Giving up on Episode 5 Prelude
OK, first of all there was no puzzle specifically from Prelude to Ep5
Second, there does not seem to be anything relating the "clues" to any other puzzle about which we know.
Third the cbcradio3 website is as boring as [insert most boring activity here].

Now in a feeble attempt to find something distinctly "juicy" I tried logging in to CBC3 with more combinations than I care to mention.

THen I looked at the archive for the death date (and 1 day before and after) of Mr JG Ballard. The only thing that might have related was a new band called Run GMC which is (1) Based in Vancouver (where the coordinates roughly are) (2) they have a gmail account (like most other things in the puzzles - oh and most other people in the english speaking world) and finally (3) has a song called "Lost and Found" which has nothing to do with Michael...

So, I went to the Run GMC website on myspace and endured the Lost and Found song again and looked through their "friends". Needless to say, there was nothing of interest.

I don't know how to take this further without looking a things that are completely unrelated to anything else...

So after looking for juicy stuff in the shadows of the mess of CBCradio3 I now give up.

I found this link at Cinemanovel of the following Flikr photostream. Looking at PAGE 5, "IMG_0369" & "IMG_0360" shows a building at the coords. "IMG_0366" & "IMG_0365" show (I think) the exact location of the coords.


The building in those photos looks a heck of a lot like the one that the Ennead group just broke into in Episode 6. If Lisa goes to check it out, and it's the same building, she's bound to find something (or run into the Ennead group).

 		Reading too much into it?
Where I live it is already evening on Monday, so it must be way past "Sunday night" in Canada. However, her last post was at 3am, so I guess we could still be waiting more...

Now, with all the waiting, I hope we aren't missing anything. There are still some people that go to the YouTube Ennead videos and post things like "When's the next episode; can we have it sooner?"...I hope we're not missing a piece of the puzzle. Maybe I'm reading too much into it.

In her last post, Lisa said that "Things have been kind of scary. I discovered something." Perhaps the next problem will be the disappearance of Lisa...(I hope not 'cause then it gets more complex...)

In a red-herring drama like what Hint? gave us, I've been searching for any video blogs from Lisa's brother without success...(I guess it was too much to ask... Rolling Eyes )

 		Lisa update titled "Away from home"
***ETA: 2 more posts added***
Watch it closely and you will notice some number strings. Maybe some more ascii?

Checking now!

ETA:
The numbers are: 116 104 101 32 99 108 117 101 32 105 115 32 115 99 114 97 109 98 108 101 100
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The #'s are placed from around 2:07 to 2:15. They are Dec / Ascii and say:

the clue is scrambled

Note: Kinda time-travely
Lisa's Away from Home wrote:
I went to the apartment to check the mail, and I found this envelope, and inside of it was a USB stick, and on this USB is a video of me, inside of mine and Micheal's apartment. The envelope is postmarked for the 25th of April, and the video, is of me from two nights ago. Right before I came to stay with Paul. If I take this to the police, with everything else that I found, they're just gonna think I'm crazy

ETA2:
2 more Lisa blog updates...

"WHAT WE FOUND" tells us her brother (Paul) talked her into giving the police the last video (the one from "Away from home").

"Day Trip" is a vid of Lisa going to the drop and finding a disc (in a case) with what looks like the Ennead avatar symbol maked on it.

You were not alone! Wink I tried it again, now that we now that her brother's name is Paul, but still no luck.

Great work, Psysop!

 		@Trillian: Yeah I'm glad to see the updates also! I was starting to think Lisa got taken.

[SPEC] In "Something in the Mail" Micheal's room has a rug, then in Episode 06 when Flick is busting the Telekinesis tricks, the same type of RUG is on the floor in her room. Either everyone loves that rug, or maybe he is being held in the same facility.[/SPEC]

 		I've been thinking ever since "LaCrosse, parking" came into play that it must be some sort of anagram. I've tried multiple solutions as passwords on BOH, but no luck. Maybe I need to dig deeper, but after poring over the massive possibilities I just don't have the energy.

I'm liking "Larks Prison Cage" and think it may be a literary reference.

 		LaCrosse, parking could have a simpler meaning...General Motors makes a car called the Buick LaCrosse, which can...you know...park. In Canada, however, it is called the Allure. Despite this being a brilliant discovery Wink , I am yet to turn it into a useful deduction.

Also, the comma is odd. It may need to be read phonetically (ie LaCrosse "comma" parking), which still does not help me.
