upper case words I've been reading through the recent page of Reverend Sloane's LJ and am wondering about the words that show up in uppercase. Some appear to be for emphasis, and others not. Like SCARLET (letter) and MUSTARD (gas). Anyone think this is relevant?

Those are all characters from CLUE.
Col. Mustard, Miss Scarlet, Prof. Plum, Mrs. Peacock.
They haven't used WHITE, or GREEN
And the victim in Clue is Mr. Boddy.

Okay,
there are more all CAPS words then just the characters in Clue.

12/25 IS PEACOCK LESS
12/26 THAT
1/31 DID MUSTARD DO QUIT
2/1 THERE SEE THEY REMEMBER
2/23 HA HA HA ALL THE TIME CAN'T CAN'T CAN'T CAN'T BREATHE EXIST IS
3/14 GOD NOAH BODDY SCARLETT
4/15 NOT ALLOWED IT TO HAPPEN
5/5
6/26 WHAT WHY PLUM
11/5
------------------------

I do remember seeing WHITE and GREEN on a journal entry. My notes are at home, but one of them is in the scene at a Halloween when the kid prankster is dressed as Satan in our writer's house.

Just for clarification purposes, Reverend Sloane is the person that took over the Buffalo parish when the LJ author, Reverend STONE, left to take over the parish in New Orleans.
Reverend STONE - the author
Reverend SLOANE - his replacement in Buffalo

Why do people keep missing WHITE and GREEN?
White: 4/1/01 entry (prankster entry Catherwood gave)
Green: 5/3/01 entry
Also, the paragraph with WHITE talks about candles, and the candlestick is a murder weapon in Clue. The SCARLET entry talks about the letter being around his neck, such as the rope weapon in Clue. I haven't gotten the other entries to make sense with weapons, however.

Re: upper case words 4th Jan. 2001, Tells us the Marshall King is the new minister.... but Rev. Sloane is someone the church members should speak to about counseling (1st Feb. 2001)... so Is Sloane the counselor while King is the new Rev.? (King was the 2d H-Bomb dropped in the pacific in 1952 as well and the journal sez it began in 1952).
On another note: 13th June 2001: rev Stone is there to help Joe make the "translation" (note that did not say transition...)
Finally, the eye icon sez 4:00 PST 11/06 so we can try the password then or look for a new post don't you think?

Although telling us when to look for an update takes the fun out of 'discovering' it.

uppercase letters Looking it Abednegos's post on April 15th,reading from bottom to top, we see...
SCARLET
NOAH BODDY
GOD
ALLOWED IT TO HAPPEN
NOT
*I*
Scarlet, is our starting point.
I'm not sure where commas might belong..
Or exactly what it means, except it was not Abednego's fault.

I definitely think that the upper case words mean something. And I've been thinking about the "my EYES, not my eyes" phrase and looking at it as sort of a rebus puzzle. The word "EYES" is in upper case letters or Capital Letters ....Capital "EYES" = CAPITALIZE.
Anyway...just a thought.
