[Update] AJ's Myspace Blog

June 26

Quote:
A delightful 21 and counting...
Current mood: rejuvenated

What a lovely catch of Sammeeeees. You should know your friends are
now mine. Silly them stumbling into my den. No need to fret. They seem
quite resigned to my dark side. My black feathered pumpkins are now
preparing to enter the nave of my temple. It is going to be glorious. Truly
wish more could join us. Hope you aren't hiding. You should know, I will find you.
I have my delicious and devious ways. Don't I?
Chuckle. Chuckle. I wonder where some of the others may be? There is room
for so many more. Perhaps my faithful and enchanting trio, known to many as
"the evil Trinity", should take another look around. I feel like I have so so so
much to give to dear Mithras...
if I could only find 9 more.

Cheers to life! Isn't is wonderful?

I'm curious about this. I don't think he's referring to the Under the Bed Crew - there's more than nine of us. So my guess is that this refers to the remaining WRs &c.

Mildred
Happy
Dick White
Nedd
Jayne
Dwin
Patricia
Betty
???

He's already got six besides the Inflitrators:

Higgs
TM
Addison
Ben
Peeps
???

One of those ???s is Trinket. Who is the other? There are plenty of sort-of characters - Keely? This Gerold guy? The dog?

Patricia may have been the first. Followed by Addison, then Higgs & Ben. Peeps & TM most recently.

As for nine more....if we count the first 6, then the 15 Darksiders = 21.
Add nine more and we get an even 30.

Who is still out there (aside from UNB Crew)?
Dwin, Trinket, Happy, Jayne, Mildred, Betty, Nedd, Dick White, Jean Moulin. That list = nine. Hmmmm....

The one and only Jean Moulin! How could I forget about him! I had Trinket and Patricia swapped mentally. Your list looks good! Feels nice not to be on his hit list.

I'm sort of sad there's no ravenhiggscell or the like Wink

raven higgs

Probably because he has passed the Raven level and already the Nymphus.

But, yeah, I wonder if now we'll have access to Patricia & Higgs directly.

Isn't this a new song on his blog?
"It's a Wonderful Life", by The Real Tuesday Weld

I could swear it was something much different yesterday.

Also: Is "Begin the Beguine" new?
From wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begin_the_Beguine
Quote:
"Begin the Beguine" is a song written by Cole Porter and introduced by June Knight in the Broadway musical Jubilee (1935). It was popularized and made famous by a best-selling record in 1938 by Artie Shaw and his orchestra (Bluebird).

"Begin the Beguine" has the unusual musical form of A, A, B, A1, C, C1 with no introductory verse and, at 108 bars, is uncommonly long for a pop song.[citation needed] By contrast, most popular songs have the form of A, A, B, A and sometimes have an introductory verse which is often omitted in performance.[citation needed] The lyrics of "Begin the Beguine" are considered to be characteristic of Cole Porter's style and poetic abilities.[citation needed]

A beguine is a spirited ballroom dance. Since "begin" and "beguine" are often pronounced the same by some people, it is common to see the song's title misspelled as "Begin the Begin", as when used by R.E.M. as the title to a track on Lifes Rich Pageant.


The musical form above makes me wonder about our playing cards. I'm completely lacking in any musical talent, but I wonder if there might be a connection there? (Or maybe I'm just off on another of my wild goose chases.)

I don't know about "It's a Wonderful Life", but "Begin the Beguine" has been there for over a month. That's not to say that there's no connection, though.

Don't be sorry! Anything could be significant. And like I said, I don't know if the "It's a Wonderful Life" song has been there for very long - I think it was something different before, but I don't remember.

I signed into the chat today to discover that some latin was located on Mr. Alan Johnson's MySpace page by Methos.

Quote:

........Respice post te, mortalem te esse memento Warm Regards Your Creep


A google search later revealed that it translated to ...

Quote:

........Look around you, remember that you are mortal. Warm Regards, Your Creep.


This naturally lead to a discussion about the significance of the phrase...

Quote:
<konamouse> sounds like a threat on someone's life.
<Insanitarium> Where from?
<konamouse> Mr AJ's myspace, above the music video
<konamouse> where that' letter to his beloved used to be.

<Insanitarium> Ahhh
<konamouse> sounds like the first one was a message to Patricia, and this is now a threat?
<Insanitarium> Possible. I think it's more arrogance, his thought that you can't beat the "immortal" ....
<Insanitarium> And if you are living, you can die
<Insanitarium> More or less saying you're fighting something you can't beat
<Insanitarium> Or at least that is what he thinks

<konamouse> will you post those comments?
<Insanitarium> If you'd like me to, sure
<konamouse> it's good thinking that shouldn't be lost in the nethers of chat.
<Insanitarium> One thought in relation to that .. _if_ AJ does get his 30 souls
<Insanitarium> Then he will be brought back to life

<konamouse> yup.
<Insanitarium> Which would THEN make him easier to kill .. no?
<Insanitarium> I wonder if that is where we will HAVE to go

<konamouse> are we trying to kill him, or just close the portal.
<Insanitarium> Right now, all we're doing is keeping him at bay
<konamouse> and is it his body that comes back to life, or will he go into someone else's body (i.e. dwin). we dont' want to kill dwin
<konamouse> but you bring up a good point.

<Insanitarium> But then we lose all those souls
<Insanitarium> Yours included
* Insanitarium cries

<konamouse> that's not good either.
<Insanitarium> No it ain't
<konamouse> so i think it is a threat against those who are living.

[UPDATE] 7-1-07 Mr AJ has a recount

Quote:
22 ...
Current mood: refreshed
Category: Life

Last evening it came to my attention that I have one more black feathered pumpkin than previously accounted for - This fun fact brings my offering to a delightful 22! Although, I do hesitate to place this tally above... only due to the fact that I am certain this number will rise a notch by the end of this lovely day! My black feathered pumpkins are still preparing to enter the nave of my temple. There is, as you know, room for, let's say, 8 more. The Trinity may be looking your way, Sammeeeee. What's that I hear? Is there a scratching at your bedroom window? Chuckle. Chuckle.

Cheers to life! Isn't is wonderful?

Re: [UPDATE] 7-1-07 Mr AJ has a recount

Six Down + 17 cells = 23 ???

I asked AJ/Eidolon how he counted "22".

Eidolon wrote:
Greetings my black feathered Pumpkin!!!

Your skill and enthusiasm are refreshing. It is difficult even for moi to keep up with this counting. There are today 23. Trust me, my black feathered Pumpkin, 23 is now our count. Your assumptions are correct, but the six became five. One has returned. This return was only granted due to a greater sacrifice to this Pater and my Mithras. Please do not concern yourself with such trivial matters. You and your black feathered Pumpkin friends are getting very close to becoming Brides. Your Raven tributes are going to make Mithras very proud.

Warm Regards,
Your Eidolon

We can spec who is who:
Patricia, Addison, Higgs, Ben, TM, Peeps = first 6.
Did he lose Addison because his mortal body died??? (If that was Addison hanging, where did his body go? Did Eidolon send Higgs to collect it and hide it???) This assumes he needs the mortal body to remain alive for the souls to count towards his transmigration back into a mortal being.

Or has it always been Dwin, Patricia, Higgs, Ben, TM, Peeps (because Addison never made it inside) but then Higgs gets caste out for trying to help us (the blogspot that was in the Raven dashboard and then was deleted with us having to change our pw access).
However, the Eidolon needs all the souls he can get, so I doubt he would throw one away.

The current Darksider count is accurate (duplicate cells were removed). Once he has you, apparently it doesn't matter how far your progress into the nave (but I think only those who get the highest level will be privy to the secret of the portal and only then perhaps able to shut it tight with Mr AJ still inside).
