PHAROAH says:
sorry
PHAROAH says:

Who are you, Pharoah?

PHAROAH says:
i am The 0men
PHAROAH says:
i appear to warn before every tragedy in the world

Well apparently you haven't done a very good job... look at all the tragedies that happen everyday...

PHAROAH says:
most people i contact dismiss it as a prank
PHAROAH says:
they do not understand like you do

The accident... what will happen?

PHAROAH says:

For those who want to contact this PHAROAH (via MSN), his email is the0m3nSPLAThotmail.com

So, watch your back's all. Disaster's lurkin'.

Edit: Some nice bolding to differentiate between us.

Edit 2: Retagged to GAIM... doesn't look like this will be taking full ARG form.

this is based on the movie "The Omen." It it about a little boy who is believed to be Satan Incarnate and goes around killing innocent people. I think it is based in Tulsa.

Strings, nice to meet you.

the pleasure is all mine
Strings says:
I've heard that you can tell the future... sort of.
intruder alert says:
yes
intruder alert says:
well there havent been any updates yes
intruder alert says:
i am still searching though
Strings says:
That must be frustrating.
Strings says:
What's your success rate?
intruder alert says:
not very good at the moment
Strings says:
Damn the unaffected youth.
intruder alert says:
yes
Strings says:
So, how do you know... what you know?

i am an immortal being
intruder alert says:
i have powers of forsight
Strings says:
Are there others like you?
intruder alert says:
a few
intruder alert says:
not many though
Strings says:
Do they do the same thing?
Strings says:
Or is there a useless immortal being of, like... hindsight?
intruder alert says:
yes. we are always preoccupied
Strings says:
A lot of bad stuff happens.
intruder alert says:
haha you are funny
intruder alert says:
yes it does
Strings says:
And what do you want with people?
intruder alert says:
to help other people
Strings says:
Isn't it people that cause the problems?
intruder alert says:
not always
intruder alert says:
there are greater forces at work
Strings says:
Anything that our fragile minds could handle?
intruder alert says:
but humans have the power to prevent things. But, only if they help each other and work together
Strings says:
Let's form a TEAM! [heroic MSN face]
intruder alert says:
i believe humans already have an understanding of Heaven & Hell
Strings says:
I do.
Strings says:
Is something bad happening in either/both?
Strings says:
Or can't you tell yet?
intruder alert says:
yes
intruder alert says:
i think there is something brewing
intruder alert says:
and it might affect the human world
Strings says:
Like a war?
intruder alert says:
maybe
Strings says:
Sounds logical...
intruder alert says:
only slight tremors are showing at the moment though
intruder alert says:
I must go..
Strings says:
How should we prepare?
intruder alert says:
and old woman is about to be run over in France
Strings says:
Oh dear
Strings says:
Hurry up then
Strings says:
Bye! x
intruder alert says:
...i will keep you all up to date
intruder alert says:
bye
Strings says:
e-mail me


So there you have it. Problem not caused by humans, probably some friction within heaven and/or hell.

...But he can't be certain.

I was contacted by this person this morning. I was a bit less understanding of why *I* was being contacted, and for what, exactly.

So now I have this wacky log of several identities (all in different font colors), cajoling me to help.

He said I would get a reward if I helped spread the message, and suggested cake, wishes, dreams, or a kloo -- but then he took it back, and said there'd be no kloo for me.

Hrumph.

Yeah, he contacted me, too, and wanted me to warn someone, but his syntax suggested that those who should be warned were the MSN Messenger fonts, since they were the only plural subject that had come up yet in the conversation.

/me shrugs.

So I figured he was a kook, and blocked him.

I hope he got to 'someone' in time to save that old lady. Oooh, did anyone ask if he can help himself, or if he's just warning?

So far he's been called...

PHAROAH

Intruder Alert

and.. "ROFL is not a term I like to use."

The first two are 'things he no longer has'. Could they be the message?

Ok! I might have found something! (my other post was becomming crowded)

there is a Blues Brothers song that is on the blues brothers 2000 live c.d, accompagnied by Eddie Floyd (No connection to Pink Floyd, but a coincidence just the same) and it just so happens that it is a phone number (but no area code...)

even if I could, I couldn't call, I'd be shot by my parents, anybody else care to try? (when we get the code)

634-5789 - Eddie Floyd/Wilson Pickett/Jonny Lang/The Blues Brothers Band

the amazon link for the c.d is here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000005B0U/103-7666794-4299055?v=glance&n=5174
