So are you supposed to open them one day at a time? Or all at once?

This is cool Smile

For what it's worth, doing a google search on "sammeeeees" turns up two classified ads for "Tin Hats custom-made" placed on September 25th.

One in The Village Voice

and one at Univision.

It's too early to know if these are related, but the date and the unlikely overlap of 'sammeeeees' makes me wonder..

EDIT: actually, doing a search just for 'sammeeeee' turns up quite a bit of random stuff. Who knew?

I wish someone would send ME pretty boxes in the mail! Smile

Is that foil that the boxes were wrapped in? That would fit in the ads that danteIL found. Tin foil hats suggest paranoia. Hmm. I'm definitely intrigued by this one.

edit: Googling for the words "a recent study by Louisiana state university has found that the extreme" turns up a lot of hits for dietary research, as well as a few about microbial and bacterium studies that appear to be related to the search for life on other planets.

I feel like I'm in the movie Seven.

"What's inside the box?!"

Hopefully not what was waiting for Brad Pitt. Flower petals are much more friendly. Let's hope that and a final note are all that's in the fifth one.

Yes. Tape is hard to remove from foil without ripping it, by the way.

Hrmm.. very interesting, if bizarre!

The capital letters on the last 4 notes spell out C-A-L-L, btw.

EDIT: I'm not one to call random numbers, but 646-205-1615, perhaps?

EDIT2: And NOW! is in the same bold font.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Call the 646 number (as suggested by dontpanic42 here and spacebass in #unfiction)and you receive a message:
