Though, hahaha, actually, that WOULD be a mustache. Someone was handing out stick-on mustaches every time someone asked a question.


Yeah I saw that. People standing up and yelling at him for violating rules. That couldn't be fun.

Holy craps that's really a mustache? Embarassed

Heh - that's really a mustache. They were handed out to people that were asking "hard" questions - so it was a Snidley Whiplash evil kinda representation.

Honestly, I don't think we're supposed to sit on our hands until the 31st. The only down time so far in all of this, is when we were supposed to be figuring something out, and were failing to do so. I could be wrong, but it's like an itch between my shoulder blades I can't reach.

I think its time to go back through the book I was sent by Port. Rage mentioned it would start making sense soon. Maybe its time. If anyone else s interested in reviewing it - I posted a link to all of the pictures of it, back when I first received it. If you can't find it, I'll try to and repost the link...

==edit==
Here is the link to the package I received from Port way back in the beginning http://bit.ly/YRk36
And here's the package classical and I received in Portland http://bit.ly/CqgQB

I had taken a short video of when we got the package out of the safe at the hotel, and I'm desperately trying to find it, but I'm afraid it's gone due to the virus..arrgghhh

You just called it, 'cause guess what! The Brightman Oracle blog just got updated with the image below, post entitled "Find Me".

Leads to this and I'm hitting a brick wall--where did we encounter Locomotive Breath again? I know it was posted on one of the blogs, at some point... not that I can really go back through them and look for it. );

I'm wondering if this is another one of those "false leads" again, though.

edit;; answered my own question (thank you site search function)
It was right after Ron happened, before the thread got pulled; the Hazeltine blog had the lyrics and the Anderson image posted to it... I think, if I'm rereading my own writing right... jeez...

Hey Classi? I don't mean to sound like a newb again but is a there a list of blogs that you can link me to so I can add them to my RSS reader?

Also, what Twitter Accounts are still up that I should follow?

=edit=

Okay this weirds me out. I checked the properties on the yahoo picture and it shows that it was created with Picasa. I can't help but think we should start looking for a Picasa account.

However I could just be over-reacting.

Looking at Classi's picture from ARGFest I noticed something... on the table, to Brickers right... A Satrbucks coffee cup! More proof!

Just not to make my last post any longer. Here is the link to the question about locomotive breath...

Lyrics:
Quote:
In the shuffling madess
Of the locomotive breath,
Runs the all-time loser,
Headlong to his death.
He feels the piston scraping --
Steam breaking on his brow --
Old charlie stole the handle and
The train wont stop going --
No way to slow down.
He sees his children jumping off
At the stations -- one by one.
His woman and his best friend --
In bed and having fun.
Hes crawling down the corridor
On his hands and knees --
Old charlie stole the handle and
The train wont stop going --
No way to slow down.
He hears the silence howling --
Catches angels as they fall.
And the all-time winner
Has got him by the balls.
He picks up gideons Bible --
Open at page one --
Old charlie stole the handle and
The train wont stop going --
No way to slow down.

Bang Head Bang Head Bang Head Cursing Cursing Bang Head

Forgive me if I'm the only one that hasn't seen this. But realization just hit me like a ton of bricks..

If you've seen the movie Donnie Darko - who was the bunny?

Bang Head Bang Head Bang Head Cursing Cursing Bang Head

It's been staring us in the face since day 1. The comments; "I've take part of my life and made it Ports". The similarities to Rage..
Man i feel like an idiot.

I don't know, never seen it. Who was the bunny, Wulf?

Wait wait wait, what are you getting at, Wulf?
Because I think I just came to a totally opposite conclusion... aaaand we have another problem.

Port's blog was updated:
Elil on the Down wrote:
***ALL AGENTS RUN NOW***
Contingency: Fiver12 - rot(22)


And I got an email from Hatch's address:
water.tightSPLATlive.com wrote:
Beware. There is a traitor in our midst. The writer is in grave danger.


Ryutso: Erf, I'm gonna have to spoil the entire movie then, but:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The bunny was Donnie's sister's boyfriend, Frank, appearing to him as he would appear later on Halloween when he accidentally kills Donnie's girlfriend.



edit;;
emails from Bricker--apparently my photos helped!
Quote:
I do remember, Courtney. Rereading your past few e-mails and looking at those photos made something click. Like finally getting a sliver out that has been bothering you for days. It just slides out and suddenly it's all good. But things aren't all good, are they? I remember a week or so ago I was up late writing on a trauma response project and I heard something out in the livingroom. It's still a bit of a blur, but there were people...dark figures that I can't quite remember. There was the metallic sting of a needle into the back of my mouth, into the hinge of my jaw. I can still hear it squeaking inside my head. And the taste of something bitter. There were images...flashing images of something and I can remember noticing the leather of my couch up close to my eyes. I can remember, just for a moment, realizing where I was as I looked at the patterns in the leather...and then I was gone again into a whirlwind of blurred images. But I get what you are saying now, I do remember. I bought you and Justin lunch and I went online and looked at my bank statement and it was there. It was real. You are real. I'm real. I get it.

But that means that the world really is going to end in 20 days.


OMNIOUS! But I basically replied, 'good, now let's get you the hell out of there'. I don't know who exactly is our "traitor" here, but I have a pretty decent idea...

Also!
Ryutso: here is our Fantastic Four. These are the ones likely to be updated first with puzzles and whathaveyou. Some of them may look deceptively blank, but that is how I'm Sorry rolls, y'know?

And these have been used for stuff recently though they are no longer updated, but who knows:

The main ones are the first four, though. Rage is the only one who twitters actively (@ArlenRage) but King has an account (@klokworkalex) that he uses to contact me from time to time.


edit;;
also, we need to have a party or something when the thread hits 100 pages.

Classi: Thanks for the links. All of them are now being watched by me.

Schwinn, I have to say, the filenames are interesting on those pictures:
brightmanp.jpg
brightmanp2.jpg
frank_k450.jpg
frank2.jpg
lincolntb_l1vr.jpg
lincolntb2.jpg
lineman.jpg
lineman2.jpg
tresle.jpg
tresle2.jpg

Looks like Wulf was spot on with the Donnie Darko reference. The bunny pictures are named "Frank".

What I don't get is the filename of the other pictures. Brightman P? It's obviously a reference to the Brightman building, but the P?

Lincoln T is Thomas Lincoln, but the b and the l1vr throws me off.

Lineman is the woman. Have we heard of a Lineman yet?

So is 'there is a traitor in our midst' referring to Randall and we are to prevent this meeting from happening or what?

Also I'm having problems getting anything out of the locomotive breath clue. Although lovomotivebreath.blogspot.com is a curious little page (but last updated in 2002 leaving it OOG) :B

@Classical -

The bunny costume was worn by Donnie's sisters boyfriend, but the bunny that kept appearing to him "Frank" was just part of Donnie's fractured psyche. It was a portrayal of Donnie's dark-half. Whom he blamed all the bad things on, for instance when the school statue was beheaded, etc. IN essence - he is/was the bunny. So what does this say about Bricker?

Also - I gotta side with TheCheese here, who're you thinking the traitor is? And why?

I was just about to say this exact thing.

And I too am a little bit lost with the locomotive breath clue...unless we're being told we're running out of steam, maybe? Which, I know I've been running out of steam. I'm having trouble wrapping my mind around all the different possibilities with this. Determined to see it through, but lost all the same!

Wait wait wait, could that mean the Bricker's "bunny", so-to-speak is...Rage?
