That was an "excellent" video. They're the 21st century Bill & Ted. :smt023
What an excellent adventure that was!

By the by, Bree's dad's message says to send him a "secret message" and then to meet him "one week after that" at the location he specifies.

Bree's "CU SOON" message was sent on 12/23, so one week after that would be 12/30, which is this coming Saturday.

Hmmm...
I am not sure, but it my opinion that her "CUSOON" message was actually not intended for her father, there is a lot of evidence that suggests he does not watch her videos, but rather I think she was sending a message to Daniel and Jonas. Now, I admit, I could be wrong but that is what I think!

Do we really know when anything was filmed? In "real" movies they often film the last scene first and the first scene last. No telling. I realise there's a certain amount of audience participation you don't get in normal movies but it's not pervasive.

Whether they're trying to communicate something by the little subtleties, I don't know. Certainly the plot specific stuff is intentional, but stuff like when things were filmed? I really doubt it.

What really annoys me is the number of internet cafes that just keep popping up, or am I just not living where the action is? I doubt if I could even find one here in Baltimore. Maybe downtown.
My point was simply that I think the plot happens in real time.

They're gonna take the new bridge from LA to Hawaii via the Bermuda Triangle. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

No, I just listened to it again and the location comes from the voice mail, so unless somebody knows what that number is, we're not supposed to be able to figure it out, and neither is the Order, presumably.

It *is* interesting how Jonas keeps calling Daniel "The Beast," which has to be a direct Crowley reference. And now that I think about it, Jonas/Jonah has a certain mythological connection with people disappearing at sea. Wheels within wheels, Bendreth.

I was implying that she was telling Daniel and Jonas not to worry about her and that should would be back soon.

Well, the Skipper from Gilligan's Island was also named Jonas...
While everyone ponders about who watches the watchers, I'll see who is cleaning up after the janitors.

Now THAT'S trivia! I don't recall anyone ever actually calling him that. It's also interesting because it fits in with the Hawaiian Triangle angle. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vile_vortices. Who writes this stuff? :shock: How else to explain how they landed on an uncharted island?

I love Gilligan's Island too, I guess I will have to check wikipedia for all the details on it. Nice find!

Good question. Alone it might not be significant, but add it to the disappearance of his parents in the Hawaiian equivalent of the Bermuda Triangle and it might be. Does Jonas not seem a little alien to you guys? The trouble is you start talking about the Illuminati as someone in another thread likes to do and you can justify just about anything.

Then again, we may be reading too much into it. It's probably nothing more than a cute expression one would expect from n00bie writers. :shock: I guess we'll just have to stay tuned.
It's been pointed out as significant because it's a movie that was used in one of Tach's recent puzzles. This is (I think ) around the third time that Jonas has referenced said puzzles. There's more discussion earlier in this thread and in the OpA section.

I think you're probably not looking for wi-fi places, or you'd probably be aware of quite a few. I live in a small town and can think of at least five places nearby with wi-fi. Plus, you can "war-walk" even more efficiently in a car. Not to go totally off on a tangent, but my husband and I were without internet for a couple of days due to a phone company problem, and we just drove around town until we found a good spot to download our email and watch the latest LG15 video. Well, I did the last part. If you know what you're doing, it's easy.

You're right. As I said earlier, I wasn't thinking in terms of wi-fi. And I actually read Slashdot. :oops:

I'm gone for a couple hours and there is a new video and 13 pages of this thread!!

Yay! Daniel and Jonas are friends now! That was so cute how they were acting all like buddies :D
Daniel is a smart cookie! He figured out the code. How did he know the location though?
It's the Cornwallis Effect!
