FWIW, the letters almost look as if they've been through an earthquake...? And the breakage, as it were, isn't consistent from letter to letter, in the letters in which it occurs...

except the H, L, and the R... the H is cut off at the end of the letter and it just has a little bit of an imperfection... the L is perfect... the R is cut off at the end...

I wonder if that's significant?

dunno if it got overlooked being on the previous page

Here are my interpretations of it.

start off on the RIGHT foot.

The RIGHT light?

Why is the car multi colored. I'm not quite sure.

The poem I dont know either right now.

J did say that this was a perfect book for this though...

could it be a hearse?

the envelope also said "for a bottle of wine from your favorite winery or whatever else tickles your fancy"

I don't know about that either. Makes me wonder why...

East beast west beast. The poem pretty much means it all depends on how you look at it. if you look at it from the west side the west seems best but if you look at it from the right side the right seems best.

why the rock? why the fish? why the girl?

the girl kind of reminds me of harold and the purple crayon...

I have noticed the simple shapes of the girl forming letters. such as a n and a d the ~ and < also appear in her shape. ~ being arms and < being legs. (Curiously look like the symbols used in forums)
tinyurl maybe?

The tabulature reads:
"NO AUDIENCE NO CURTAIN CALL" - indicating if no one hears Zipp's message no one gets to take a bow.

The binary on this page reads:
"empty box seats" - possibly a reference to important people that needed to hear Zipp's message.

this can go with the empty house message in the 3rd message from zipp.

It's an apple tree. could be referring to being the apple of someones eye.

there is also a crazy face with a weird hair and tounge.

J can't you use normal colors?!?!!? lol

there is a shadow on the right. Right shadow? i dunno

this came with the 2nd drop. The letters?!?!

ok new video time from lg and its 2:10 am and I can't think of much more.

as far as the way the letters is written in this pic is it possible that there are layers to this? I didn't know if this had been brought up before.

the letters is shifted most likely though font selection but shifted none the less

once you print a document the layers are gone well because you printed it. This is a scan of the print so no way to access the original layers if possible. The original had layers I guarantee due to the fact that a little of the ampersand did not take to the change of transparency of the rest of the character. Some fonts like that where you have flowing bits outside the normal square will do that with adobe products i see it in flash all the time.

i am doing a letter analysis on the poems. Counting letters and such. Will be up in a couple of shakes. I haven't seen anything that makes me think this is the right direction but Dr. Seuss's novels are known for using as little different words and letters as possible. Is this why it's perfect for this type of thing?

Here you go. Nothing from it, but at least we have it if we need it. If you want to double check the numbers please do.

No, no head banging, darlin'! Not without heavy metal anyway! Besides, I was just noticing the same thing you'd noticed...only more so... Over-analyzing...which is something that...uh...we do here'bouts, right? You oughtta see the wall next to me...QUITE a dent!

Ok, going on a whim and combining some clues, I though "Hey, why can't "the letters" mean the e-mail he sent her?" and then thinking of the theory of removing the 6th line I decided to do this and see if anyone can find anything from it:

Without the 6th:

Dear Maddison,

In advance I offer you my apologies.
We were intended to never meet.
However, current developments have left me with no other option but to blindside you in this manor, and for that I am truly sorry. There is no reason for you to trust me or to help me, and after some explanation, you will most likely have no desire to do either.

Introductions are probably appropriate.
This will probably seem unusual from your perspective, but unfortunately, that is all I can offer.
If you wish, you can discover more information, but the picture will never be fully complete.
Our relationship will always be based on a certain level of faith.

The powers that be will soon track down this transmission and eliminate both the sender and the recipient.
For you to dismiss the gravity of this information could bring horrific results.
There are actions you can take to ensure some level of safety.
The organization I mentioned before, could not afford to interfere with an individual who experiences a certain level of exposure. Simply put, as an unknown, you are easy prey.

I have set up some accounts for you, and all the information for these accounts is included here.
For your sake and mine, immerse yourself.
Let them know who you are. Nothing I share with you should be kept private.
You will need their help, for my messages will be encoded to confuse the enemy.
Even now it is likely you need their help.

You have no more than 15 days before this specific transmission is discovered, traced to me, and tracked to you.
It is only the vast size of the organization that allows us such a luxury.
Hopefully you can garner the attention necessary for them to see that you cannot be harmed and that you are, indeed, not a threat, but rather an instrument within a larger context.
In the mean time, I need you to make some new friends.
I wish you success.

For the sake of my child,
Mr. Zipp

All of the 6th's:

I am a worried parent with certain people watching my every move who impose severe restrictions on my interactions with my only child.
This may seem like strange advise, but you need to immerse yourself in some specific online exposure.
It is important for the community at large to see and examine all messages from me.
If you are willing, you can be my microphone and save my child's life.

Anyone make anything from it?[/quote]

it seems like the summary of just the whole letter.

there has to be something else in this letter; i'll take a look tonight.

kellylen · Post by **kellylen** » Fri Jun 22, 2007 9:26 pm

I admire your enthusiasm!!!

I haven't posted because I feel I don't have much to add. This is what I am working on now.

At one point I had thought the images might represent song titles, and thier genre the location it was found in.

Like maybe looking for a Jazz song with a title that matches the pictures or page from the first drop retrieved at the Rue-B.

A Contemporary song for the page from the Hurricane.

And maybe a gospel song for the last drop.

A sort of concert set for mr. zipp. A story of his life using musical quotes.

I don't know if it is a valid idea but at least its motion for me.
