 		Funny Sighting
I went over to my buddy's house the other day to watch the Coyotes play. I saw this and thought it was funny. I asked and he did NOT buy it on Craigslist and has had it for a couple of years.

 		About your "friend"
hockey;

Here are some questions that you should pose your friend:

1. Did he grow up not knowing his father?
2. Is he into fish, or are they into him?
3. Does he have a new supervisor named "Sarah?"
4. Are his initials "JM?"
5. Is he frustrated by online communcations with a "Mystery" person?
6. Does he possess a cyllinder with three dots on it?

If so, don't walk, run... Laughing

 		That would be what I call the game seeping into RL.. I'm sure we all see codes and fish everywhere we go when outside the boards=P Maybe just me?

The fun part of the Cacti jar is we know they originated from New Mexico...So if you're a lucky person to have one of the originals you got it from new Mexico…hummmn what else is in New Mexico?…some "SWEET" subterranean military installation < as my friend would say.

Jane goes off to chase butterflies again …..

5. don't think so

I don't know where he got it but there is an interesting twist. He works for a drilling company. He's a contract lawyer. They do a lot of government contracts, usually checking on waste that the gov't has dumped. But a coworker has told him that they had a contract to drill for the gov't up in Nevada. They were told to drill specifically to 41.5 feet and stop. They did so. Upon hitting 41.5 feet, they hit something solid. They were told to pull the drill out, pack up and leave. Something was burried there and we'll never know what.

 		Okay 'll bite
Okay Hockey, where in Nevada were they told to drill and stop at 41.5ft. And was this on a government installation?
Are there any pictures, like men in front of a hangar? Mr. Green

 		no biting!
How great would that be if i was in on all of this ARG! All of this is completely OOG. I don't know where... "out in the desert" was what he said. There are no pictures that I know of.

 		Did ST happen to mention if they stumbled upon any old, beat up ID badges out there in the desert?

 		???
Iknow, I'd kill to know. I always hear good stories, but nobody ever has good details. My dad worked for Honeywell. They did lots of gov't contracts. They have a building with no doors or windows. It is only accesible via underground tunnel. My dad new the guy responsible for the gov't contracts. he said he's been out to Area 51 and that it's about 30 stories underground. No other good details and that's what I hate.

I have another buddy in the Army's 160th. He did some trainings out at Area 51. He said that the badges have a color stripe on them and the floors have colored lines. If your in an area without your color, they have permission to shoot. I asked him what was out there and all he would say is that we have some "weird shit" out there. Again, no really good details. I would really love to know.

 		"Weird Shit"
If It's any consolation, living around a military base (Eglin), you hear a lot of stuff from the flyboys. And the very few that I have met that have been in that Area of the world all say the same thing. They do "Weird SHit" out there.

I have never been able to get any of them to say what exactly is weird. Then again, you can't get the Hurlburt guys to really talk about their bombing runs either.

 		Gov't strange things
Going along with simplicity, when I worked for one of the aphabet agencies I was stationed on a large base in the Mojave desert (not Edwards).

The lab on base was considered to be at the time the largest that our gov't had, with 26 miles of sub-basements. There was one room in one of the levels where only three persons on base had permssion to enter. It had a phone adjacent to the outside door (and another inside the room) where if one of the three needed to enter, they first had to correctly dial in the correct combination (old school, but this was the early-mid 70s), and then pick up the phone. On the other end was the lab security post. The caller would say, "I'm entering ---," wherein the security person would unlock a box that was swapped each day for a new one. Inside the box were the three names, positions, and 2 questions only each of the three could answer. For example, "Who was you girl friend's brother's name when you were a freshman?" After responding correctly a switch was operated that completed the door opening process. When the person was ready to exit, he picked up the phone inside the room and said, "I'm ready to leave," wherein the second question was asked, and when answered correctly, the switch was again activated and the door unlocked. The security questions were changed on a daily basis.

I know there was always speculation among some of the Marine guards working in the lab as to just what was in the room, but it was NTK, and they didn't have the need, nor did I. Rolling Eyes

It was spooky down in the sub-basements, and there were bikes at the cross hallways in each basement so you didn't have to walk throughout the long corridors, but what goes on that the gov't knows that we don't, would be very alarming if made public. Shocked

Look at the mildly top secret files that Wikileaks have dumped on the net and the embarassment it's caused the US. Confused

 		Freaking people out
Good point. People are set in their ways and views. Though it seems like lately there is a lot of talk of UFOs and life elsewhere. Sounds like some kind of disclosure is planned. How much and when? Who knows.
