Considering the earthquake yesterday looks like Grace's blog title "All Shook Up" could also signify somewhere in the Baltimore area mentioned above.
Maybe the misfits clue of 'mystery/3 are missing' is connected to Poe's annual mysterious Graveside visitor, now known as The Missing Poe Toaster?
Coffee Always knew I'd sleep thru The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything & Dia Renalda, "great" fits in....aha, really great.
'

I didn't even think of the blog title having to do with the earthquake. Good catch.

The Poe Toaster is a mystery to so many people... A personal favorite author of mine has even speculated that it's a different person every year. The only problem with her theory is the if it's a different person every year then that creates the chance for multiples and there never has been a case of multiple Poe Toasters. Of course, we don't know of a single Poe fan who felt the need to place flowers on his grave for 60 years either, so anything is possible.
He'll have been missing for 3 years on Jan 19, 2012... so it doesn't make much sense to me in the "3" clue at this moment, seeing as he's only been missing for 2 years at this time?

Right, go away for a bit and miss a lot. It's fun to read up and watch great minds in action Smile

On the lines:

If its Morse, by adding three strokes

- .-- (.)- / (.)(-) .- / ..--..

you can get

- .-- .- / . - .- / ..--..

TWA ETA?


If that holds up, she must fly to the next stop?


Okay master of clues... Teach me your ways. I must know how you got that. lol


EDIT: Didn't want to triple post.

Punxtr, jester replied, your answer was correct. Do you choose to give Derek air conditioning or one (monitored) phone call with his sister?

Dottoe, Derek answered your question. He did indeed feel the ground shake, and wants to know if that's important.

Bolded all that to make sure it was seen.

 		Lets not get giddy yet.
By adding where you want to, there could be different outcomes.
It just seemed to fit after Dia mentioned Hawaii.

Derek would have been a goner if that last one was left up to me. I was not going to get that one, even tho the clues were spot on. Some you can see, some you don't.

To answer your question, pencil paper and crushing stupidity bulldog determination.

 		Could that be we are missing the "point"? Razz

I'm going to ask Grace about the phone call... it seems like she should be able to decide this one.

 		Could the letters that have been missing from their clues/information be what they're pointing to? That missing e might have been a mistake, but their using it as a clue in the next puzzle would be awesome. Smile

 		Maybe a little humor?

I've long had my doubts about Roger Daltrey Smile

So if it is indeed Morse, what we have seems to be:

- .-- - .- --.-- or TWTA? add an "E" plus two more to make seven letters?

Or some other letters entirely depending on the spacing.

 		Okay, the first letter is likely E. The second letter, I'm not so sure about. The third letter seems to be S. I don't know how any of that helps.

It could be another enigma setting for that morse text.

The second letter could be G, inferred from the title of Pinchon's book Gravity's Rainbow; or it could be V, from the exact name of another book he wrote.

 		I'm pretty sure I found the Second letter.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It's V. Author/comic book writer Alan Moore wrote V for Vendetta.

 		Thank freaking god!
I got smart, and finally asked the one question that we hadn't thought to ask yet, and Mummer's Farce answered me!!


Me: "No, thank you for telling me that. Where can we find the fifth word of the cheat code?

Mummer's Farce: I have been waiting for someone to ask me this since Jester released the first word.

The fifth (and last) word in "smiles"



We might be able to get this cheat code finished today!

 		Update: I think I solved the cheat code. I may be wrong, but if I'm right, what do we do with it?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I think they made a typo. I think they meant to say "the fifth and last word IS smiles" which would make the cheat code "These great big golden smiles."



I did indeed solve the cheat code. I'm so freaking happy right now.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ThePuppetsFool@DiaRenalda Congratulations on the cheat code. For the next week, all of Derek's needs will be provided for.

So, EVS? Could it be Elvis?
