Edit/I thought that last email meant that he was learning to read, so I sent him an email in English to see how it worked....
It didn't really work that well, I got this, John Lennon "It's so hard"

So I guess we are still communicating by video, which is hard.

 		This is what I've been able to determine from my last email from him

Yes/no that I don't know where to look. Confused
He is Tommy but he is not happy

Then these 3 videos
Quote:
Happy Jack by The Who
Chinatown Trailer
"never rub another man's rhubarb" Jack Nicholson in Batman

mayor yes/no Confused

The last place he saw his brother was in san francisco and besides learning his brother was a secret agent he learned that he was a prisoner. This is a Wikipedia article on The Prisoner that may relate to what is going on with his brother http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Prisoner .

He is learning fast, but it's making him tired.

 		A new email, Subject: What a wonderful world


Quote:


YouTube: Link

mayor of simpletown yes&yes but no? how to say? "What to do now?"
"Many are my names in many countries:"
iiiiiiiii don't know where to look

brother from another planet is secret agent man
i is secret agent man
brother is/was prisoner
me looking for brother yes
looking for me brother yes/no MAYBE

thank you for help

I asked him what his brother's name is. Maybe he has a MySpace or Blogger or something.

Edit/Does anybody have any idea what he might have meant by this?
Quote:
i&i train i train i&i


Edit/I sent him an email asking what his brother's name is and he sent 2 videos, Cannonball Adderley's "Brother John"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoAtTi_u2u8
Pete Seeger shows how to play "Frere Jacques" on the banjo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKNxKeydnEs
So his brothers name is John.
I still haven't had any success finding him though.

 		Triple post! Shocked
I received this email in response to an email I sent him saying that I thought his brother's name was John and I would keep looking for him.

Quote:
yes no maybe. i look blogs-no find. i look&look 2.
brother not mayor of simpletown


And now this person is following me on Twitter Smile

http://twitter.com/HelpFindMyBro
which links to
http://www.wix.com/HelpFindMyBro/home
I think the twitter person is the missing brother.

I told our alien friend that I had found his brother and he sent me this email
Quote:
Ms. Jane Waitress, Yes, that looks very promising. Have you been talking to him? Is he all right? Do you know where he is? John "Jake" Blues

I filled out the contact form and I have Tweeted. Smile

Oops! Embarassed
I did that backwards, that last email was from the Twitter person. This one is from our alien friend
Quote:
help please. wat meens

"help us find "
"we don't expect"
"We are very concerned"

thank you Sweet Jane


Edit/I blew it again. Rolling Eyes He was worried about the us, we, us. It should only be his brother that is concerned about him because there is nobody else. The Twitter guy asked if I knew where he was and I don't so he shouldn't be able to find him if he means to do him harm.

 		It became an ARG a while ago. Smile
I am really having problems with this. The Twitter guy says he's our alien's brother, but our alien says he isn't.
Quote:
"What to do now? This dog does not behave correctly."

picture not RIGHT brother


and now he says this
Quote:
"What to do now? This dog does not behave correctly."

redding hard. elmo wrong!

So I guess that when Twitter guy said this
Quote:
It's just a picture of Jake Blues. We called ourselves Elmo and Jake sometimes... He likes blues and R&B

HelpFindMyBro / HelpFindMyBro

He proved he wasn't his brother. Confused He made Tommy believe that he wasn't his brother, because they called themselves Elwood and Jake not Elmo and Jake.
