CONTACT - Drexel Called 4/1/04

I got a phone call from Drexel apologizing from before. He asked if I'd sent him an email. I said yes. He told me not to use that address anymore. "That box is dirty." He said to take the address from the blog. That would give me a hint. I'm going to attempt to send an email to bluelouboyleSPLATcomcast.net. I will let you all know how it goes.

Nevermind....check this out:

I searched for bluelouboyle on comcast.net and got the following pages:

http://www.classicbeatles.com/gb.asp
http://www.geocities.com/coreyglover/geobook.html

Drexel's real name is john boyle (?), and he also refers to himself as "papa lazarus" (Lazarus, man risen from the dead by Christ-i'll look up the actual bible verse later). he seems to be in Dublin, Ireland...here's some quotes from those sites:

DrexelMaddison signed on at 3:42:11 PM.
MyssFitz (3:42:46 PM): Is everything OK? You keep signing on and off.
DrexelMaddison (3:43:26 PM): Sorry. This free service that the store offers us employees isn't very good.
MyssFitz (3:44:12 PM): Isn't very good? Does it keep signing you off?
DrexelMaddison (3:44:41 PM): They have a timer on this thing.. But I've worked a bypass around it
DrexelMaddison (3:44:55 PM): Unfortunally, the chat client then becomes unstable.
DrexelMaddison (3:44:58 PM): O well. Smile

MyssFitz (3:45:13 PM): Oh. I see.
MyssFitz (3:45:32 PM): Can't you fix the unstability? You seem to be very smart.
DrexelMaddison (3:46:00 PM): Sure I can fix it. But I don't think Powells would appricate it if I were to tear open the lunchroom computer.
DrexelMaddison (3:46:01 PM): Smile

MyssFitz (3:46:32 PM): Darn. Can't you block the ones who are monitoring?
DrexelMaddison (3:47:49 PM): Answering that question might awaken the Grendel
DrexelMaddison (3:47:55 PM): and cause him to take notice.
DrexelMaddison (3:48:13 PM): and while that isn't bad.. I don't appricate the people he works for.
DrexelMaddison (3:48:23 PM): See.. Grendel sees all.
DrexelMaddison (3:48:30 PM): Wouldn't you say?

MyssFitz (3:48:56 PM): Before I can answer, I need to know who is Grendel?
DrexelMaddison (3:49:04 PM): *sighs*
MyssFitz (3:49:24 PM): I knew that would get that response from you.
MyssFitz (3:49:35 PM): I tend to ask a lot of questions.
DrexelMaddison (3:49:41 PM): If I say his True or Brothers Inlaws name, then he will notice
DrexelMaddison (3:49:57 PM): Understand now? I can't make it more clear

MyssFitz (3:50:03 PM): Yes I do.
DrexelMaddison (3:50:14 PM): Good..
MyssFitz (3:50:24 PM): But won't he still notice if he's monitoring?
DrexelMaddison (3:50:31 PM): I need to get back to work.
DrexelMaddison (3:50:37 PM): Some things slip under radar
DrexelMaddison (3:50:44 PM): I will call you tonight

MyssFitz (3:50:51 PM): OK. Talk to you tonight.
DrexelMaddison (3:51:14 PM): I'm also losing this account. It's to dirty
DrexelMaddison (3:51:25 PM): I'll be at the correct email address.
MyssFitz (3:51:30 PM): OK.
MyssFitz (3:51:40 PM): DR.
DrexelMaddison signed off at 3:52:17 PM.

I think I know who Grendel is, but I'm not sure. I just agreed to keep him happy (medication and all). I'm assuming it's one of the 3 from Ideltech. But than again, I don't think they are married and none have older sisters to have a brother in law. (at least not according to their bios).
The only one would be Hans. From Amboy Monthly:

Racey was attached to Alpha Company 3-58 th Aviation Regiment as an Air Traffic Controller in Balad Iraq . During his time here he intends on spending time with his in-laws and getting used to being a new father.

And I think Powells is his boss now.

I think Drexel works at Powell's Books, a very old and famous bookstore in Portland Oregon.

I would have thought Grendel was TOBI. TOBI should be able to monitor information and could very well be thought of by Drexxel as a monster.

My immediate guess is that Grendel is TObi, and that the Brothers in law are the our good freinds at Ideltech.

Grendel is the monster that Beowulf killed in the ancient poem/story of the same name. What we have here are more cultutal/arts references, which we know from other clues and dialog ToBi has a hard time udnerstanding.

Here is a plot synopsis of Beowulf taken from this site: http://www.grendel.org/grendel/beowulf.html

Quote:
Monster Grendel comes to plague Heorot, meadhall of Hrothgar, king of the Danes. The monster embattles the hall for years before Beowulf, prince of the Geats, comes to destroy the monster. Beowulf engages the monster when it break into the hall one night and kills Grendel by ripping his arm off. Grendel's mother steals one of the Danes, and Beowulf dives down into the monster's lair in the nearby mere, and kills Grendel's mother with a god-forged sword.

Years pass, and a tenous but ill-fated peace is established between several warring tribes. Beowulf returns to the Geats and becomes king. The tale of Grendel is retold along with other tales.

Years more pass, and a Geatish slave breaks into the lair of a dragon, hoping to buy his freedom with stolen treasure. The dragon wakes and ravages the countryside before Beowulf faces it with Wicglaf, his retainer. Beowulf is mortally wounded in the battle, and Wicglaf returns to the Geats (who ran in fear) alone to tell of Beowulf's deed.

Website entry reference

The Papa Lazarous name and the phrases "Hello Dave" and "your my windy city now..." are references to the surreal UK comedy show "The League of Gentlemen". It refers to the strange character of Papa Lazarou, a bizarre circus owner who comes to show where the town is set to kidnap woman in the village. His catchphrases were "Hello Dave" (even if the person's name is not Dave" and "your my wife now". This is probably another veiled clue using pop culture like with the True Romance/blog puzzle.
