Summary
Been trying to collect my thoughts about what happened but it's still such a blur

milo adds: hmm. seems to support the hypothesis that they really don't know if bree's dad is dead.

I'm kicking myself for not having mentioned that Zapruder film myself earlier. I ws going to but then I thought not. Damn I hate being "thoughtjacked" by that no good little creep!

I did get some great chuckles out of the fiirst few posts. My favorite "whats zapruta?"

GEEEEEZZEEE! I wonder hnow how many people did not get the Seinfeld episode (a la JFK) --- - back and to the left, back - and to the left -

This is where milo drifts way off topic for a bit.

Though i feel the same way slainte, i also realize that the older events get, the less younger folk will know about them. i'm sure most every american student on the phorum knows JFK was President, and was assaninated, but its probably unlikely they ever heard of the Zapruder film or the Warren Commission.

My parents used to say everyone could talk to eachother about "where they were when JFK was shot" (later the subject of a hilarious Saturday Night Live skit), but its been 43 years since that day in Dallas, and the median age in the U.S. is only 36.5..

LG15 has always expanded the knowledge of its audience, for those with interest, through proving science wrong and other cultural references. Even the reference to a "flux capacitor" by Jonas recently met a lot of scratched heads at the phorum -- now THAT's heresy. But spreading knowledge is cool.

I just threw out a post at the phorum referencing the Grassy Knoll theory. I bet they eat that up as it references another shooter being involved that horrid Dallas day.

For those of you not watching the ARG vids, "Brother" was tracking Gemma with a weapon in a video released at the same time as the notBree'sDad shooting. No correlation between the two vids has been established although the usual amount of wild theories abound. Understandable given the timing and subject matter of the two vids.

CG...you are going to make their heads explode in confusion ....OOOOPS...wow sorry, probably a bad choice of words

[gemma]

This video really annoyed me mainly because as per usual, the information is coming to us very very slowly. If Bree and Jonas were in front of me I would just want to shake them vigorously and maybe after an hour some kind of clue would come out.

The pacing is driving me insane, but it is most certainly keeping me hooked, so something is working. As much as we bitch and moan about the videos we are all hopelessly addicted

Also, I can't believe there is anyone who didn't know what a flux capacitor was! BTTF is the ultimate trilogy, I'm going to add this to my list of 'important things to teach any kids I may have in the future.'

Oh, there are tons of clues. They just don't ever lead to anything .

Most excellent suggestion, I have one who is just about old enough to fathom and enjoy these. It's not like he can watch all the notViolence and notSex in LG land...

But recently we have seen a resurgence in bad language, Ms. Kelly highly disapproves and I completely agree with her. (Really good vid!)
