 		I'm back, baby!

Just found what natas found in the CSS, and the layout images seem to be at:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Cant find anything interesting, except for when you click 'Parent Directory' you see that one of the folders is called 'freedumb' Razz

This is wholly ridiculous. I am going to make my very own site where I will explain exactly why what you are claiming is patently impossible.


but no luck yet finding wordpress or other for jerry yet.

 		just checking in
Sounds interesting...

I am quite curious if her teens have changed second time around, probably... otherwise deja vu hell I'd say.

Will be reading the blog and I like to be up to date so I'll just subscribe to the thread too Smile

And BTW writernaut, do I know you? I know a *naut that writes quite regurlarly... more so than I do. Could be wrong of course, the webs are big these days.

 		Matsman, I don't think so, but anything is possible.

Ok, so my avatar was bad and I used a spoiler tag wrong. I'm just going to slink away and lurk for awhile. Smile

If that is the standard for slinking away and lurking, I should just ban myself from the forums then. heh

 		Another IM chat with Annabelle:

Quote:
KSPWEW (23:29:32): Good afternoon, Annabelle
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:29:46): Good afternoon.
KSPWEW (23:30:03): How are you today? How was church?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:32:05): Church was lovely as usual. I have had a good day, except for dinner.
KSPWEW (23:32:16): What was wrong with dinner?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:33:45): Well, I was making fish, and then I went to take a nap, and when I came back, the fish was gone from the oven, so I had to make a TV dinner instead.
KSPWEW (23:34:01): It just vanished?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:34:40): Well, I sort of... found one of the cats dragging it around the garden. I hardly see how the cat could have opened the oven, though.
KSPWEW (23:35:19): And you have to room mates or anything that could've done it?
KSPWEW (23:36:07): no roommates, sorry
KSPWEW (23:36:20): I'm a little tired
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:37:25): My parents are away at the moment.
KSPWEW (23:37:44): OKay. Have you noticed anything else unusual around the house?
KSPWEW (23:38:03): OR in general?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:39:23): I have terrible memory, and sometimes I do things that I do not properly remember.
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:39:31): Nothing terribly unusual, I suppose.
KSPWEW (23:39:42): Not at all, I often forget things
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:39:5Cool: For example, I do not really remember making the images for my website, but I must have, since they were made.
KSPWEW (23:41:1Cool: Indeed, that's quite unusual. We found a message in the coding of your website that I wanted to ask you about
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:41:33): Oh?
KSPWEW (23:41:54): "I AM THE PASSENGER. I AM NOT ANNABELLE AND I WILL NOT HELP HER. LOOK CLOSER." - does that mean anything to you?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:42:05): Hmm, that IS rather odd.
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:42:2Cool: Aren't passengers a sort of pigeon? I can't fathom what it could possibly mean.
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:42:57): As for how it got there, well, I am sure I would remember writing something like that. Perhaps it was hacked? Though, I would think hacking would be more noticeable.
KSPWEW (23:43:44): indeed, it was certainly subtly placed. And the passenger pigeon is an interesting notion. Did you know they were declared extinct in 1914?
KSPWEW (23:44:13): Random tangent, I know
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:44:21): Poor things!
KSPWEW (23:45:0Cool: indeed. There was one other thing I wanted to ask you but I know it's delicate with your painful memories, raised by one of my associates
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:45:56): You are welcome to ask. I might answer.
KSPWEW (23:45:55): The years you relived... did they happen the same way the second time as the first?
KSPWEW (23:46:13): Sort of an extended deja vu
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:47:39): No, in fact, they were quite different. I was going to make a post about it tomorrow.
KSPWEW (23:48:10): I'll look forward to it.
KSPWEW (23:48:40): This may seem like a strange question, but do you remember what they were talking about at Church? Any verse or message in particular?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:49:54): Well, it was just a fellowship meeting, and we spent most of the time bouncing ideas around for holiday charities and things like that. It wasn't a proper service.
KSPWEW (23:50:40): Ah, I see. I ask only because I often find what I learn at church has a strange relevance to what's going on in my life.
KSPWEW (23:51:53): I can't help wondering about your 'passenger' too. It certainly seems strange. Especially with this mystery man, Jerry, seemingly watching your every move
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:52:0Cool: Oh, Jerry e-mailed me.
KSPWEW (23:52:11): He did?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:52:24): Yes.
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:52:42): Just to say that I must be mistaken, and that time travel is impossible, and that sensible people would never believe me!
KSPWEW (23:52:49): Did he have anything interesting to say? He seems very determined to prove you wrong
KSPWEW (23:53:02): And I take offence at that. I believe you, as do my friends
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:53:3Cool: He has said twice that his job involves research that somehow suggests time travel is impossible. Hopefully, he will elaborate soon. I e-mailed him asking for more information.
KSPWEW (23:54:49): Would you be willing to pass on his e-mail address? Some of the more scientifically-minded in our group might be able to help you by gaining his trust as a colleague
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:55:24): His address was JerrykacezSPLATgmail.com
KSPWEW (23:55:50): thank you. I'll see what I can find out
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:56:12): I hope you will forgive my erratic posting schedule. You see, I have classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
KSPWEW (23:56:46): I understand, we all have lives to take care of
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:57:3Cool: I hope you're well today.
KSPWEW (23:58:20): I'm very well, thank you. Well, surviving, at least
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:58:45): ^.^
KSPWEW (23:58:57): So where do you go to school?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (23:59:29): I'm not comfortable giving that information to someone from the internet, but it is a small school.
KSPWEW (23:59:47): Small schools are often the best ones
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:00:10): *nods*
KSPWEW (00:00:16): what do you study?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:00:26): Philosophy
KSPWEW (00:00:3Cool: Ah, who's your favourite?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:01:11): Kierkegaard, I think.
KSPWEW (00:01:52): Ah. "I must find a truth that is true for me"
KSPWEW (00:04:30): He had a lot of interesting influences, actually. Most appropriately, metaphysics - perhaps that's what draws you to him?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:06:2Cool: *nods* Somewhat. I admire his willingness to believe.
KSPWEW (00:07:31): Indeed; I think a willingness to believe that some things exist outside of space and time is neccesary to understand both
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:07:45): Perhaps.
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:08:04): I should be going now. It was nice speaking with you. Give your friends my regards.
KSPWEW (00:08:25): I will do. I believe one or two of them may wish to talk to you directly. Is that okay?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:09:3Cool: Of course.
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:09:44): You can always e-mail me, too.
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:09:54): My address is mynameisannabelleSPLATgmail.com
KSPWEW (00:10:0Cool: I'll save that for sure
KSPWEW (00:10:55): it's been a pleasure speaking to you again. I promise we'll figure this thing out, okay?
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:11:0Cool: Thank you ^.^
KSPWEW (00:11:1Cool: Just do me one small favour?
KSPWEW (00:11:49): Be careful. At least until we understand what it is that Jerry wants
KSPWEW (00:12:33): I fear he may be dangerous
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:12:5Cool: I understand.
KSPWEW (00:13:17): Anyway, I'll let you carry on with your day. But take care of yourself
i4m4nn4b3ll3 (00:13:25): You too!


It's yielded two e-mail addresses:

 		What with the fish getting out of the oven and her not remembering taking it out, and the whole "I am the passenger" message in the css, I'm willing to bet Annabelle either has a case of split-personality, or something of the like. Maybe her "former self" still exists within her, and is trying to "get out" or at least get noticed?

 		I certainly suspect schizophrenia/split-personality disorder. The key is going to be drawing out 'the passenger'

I'm digging through some Kierkegaard at the moment, seeing if there's anything in there of use.

 		This quote from Kierkegaard reminds me of this:

"While reason, like a despairing passenger, stretches his hand vainly out towards the shore, faith, with all its inherent energy, acts in the depths of the soul, and joyfully and victoriously saves the soul in spite of reason."

 		Hmm... no deja vu's then... interesting.

Just thinking out loud: Does she have any sisters? could be some sort of soul switching (although I do think the split personality comes into it)
--- probably not, I think she would have mentioned them---

And... should we keep a close eye on the CSS then? The fact that Annabelle let it up could point to the fact that it is a source of information.
Also she said "It has come to my attention that there may be some weird messages in the images and CSS for my website"

Does that mean we missed things in the images? or am I being stupid Smile

And Writernaut, no problem, only love and interest here (okay that didn't sound right) I am also active on cgtalk and write stories there with pixanaut. So that is why I thought you could be one and the same. No problem with the avatar or anything. I use the screenname so he would have recognized it.
Glad to have you on board for this! And good find of the Kierkegaard quote... I am milling over that one, it seems very appropriate indeed.

As soon as I find time I will be reading the links on the blogroll, has someone already done so?
