That's because the note was supposed to say "Welcome to the area, neighbor." and I honestly think it does say that.

My bad, I thought it said "Welcome to the neighborhood." I can see "area".

 		Remember he says "As far as I can tell it reads "Welcome to the area, neighbor"."

Its smudged and he apparently cannot make out what the words are.

 		yeah if this was supposed to simply say "welcome to the area, neighbor" why would the pm bother to smudge it and point out "barely legible" and "as far as i can read"? perhaps the first word is welcome and the second to last word is area. BUT maybe there's something more interesting in between? (spec)

I tried the best to handle something out in photoshop, that is the result!
Welcome is good to see I think, but the last line looks like "4 Fear", not really like "neighbor", but it could also be, it is to washed out!

What also is a bit weird, is that in his "contact"-informations is written:
"mail: no current mailing address", but he has twitter and also an email...really crazy!

 		I had been messing around in Photoshop with the note too and at first I thought I was seeing "welcome to the age of fear" as well, but stuff like that can happen when you stare at the same thing for a while... when I looked away and spent time on another screen and returned immediately what jumped out to me was the word "neighbor" (well, technically either neighbar or neighbour because the cursive looks to go down rather than up like it should... but I digress). So I included two versions: with and without writing over top to clarify the letters.

Asked about insulin and got this reply:

@JeztheNun Insulin? No, nothing quite that serious, but thank you for the concern. Glad you like the blog!

This is Jezebel, the girl who asked about insulin on Twitter. Your response actually has me a little worried. If not insulin, of what are you giving yourself shots? Do you have a medical issue? Are you using drugs? You can tell me and I promise I won't judge you. If you ever want to spill your guts to someone, feel free to email me any time. Keep in touch, and take care.

I apologize in advance if this comes off as brusque. Yes, I have a medical issue. I don't really wish to discuss it, as it is somewhat a sensitive matter with me. I am just getting used to posting my entries online; I shouldn't have mentioned it in the first place, and will likely avoid the subject in the future, barring some drastic change in my feelings.
I appreciate your concern, but I hope you will respect my wishes and drop the matter. I promise it is nothing you need to be worried about

Pshh, don't people know that the worst thing they can possibly do is "accidentally" mention something then refuse to talk about it? He may as well shout from the rooftops "pry around in this personal piece of business RIGHT NOW!!" Laughing

I wonder what it is that he's injecting that's not insulin, is less serious than diabetes (but still needs regular injections), and is totally medical not recreational. I know there are some types of injections for severe depression, schizophrenia, ect. So maybe it's a mental health issue? Although I guess he could have an injury that "requires" continual injections of pain killers. It is technically a medical issue, although it would explain his getting defensive since users have a tendency to cross the line from medical to recreational without wanting to admit it?

Anyway! [/end babbling]

 		Some other types of injections that he could be alluding to is:

hormone, steroids, or thyroid.

He could also have some sort of Lyme disease or some sort of bacterial infestation.

 		I was running my head to destruction, but can't find a hint or an idea to solve the message below the article. Her it is in "good" quality, maybe someone find an answer!? Cool


EDIT:

Maybe it is binary on/off?
So:
01000 00010 and 00110 00000

that would be: 10 or 11, 4 or 5, 12 or 13 and 0 or 1..

Hm, maybe the wrong way... Confused
