Hucka D.:

Yes?

bb:

I thought we’d just chat. So much information still coming in. Really, it’s been streaming in since October. I’m downsizing in Second Life for certain, now.

Hucka D.:

As it is to be. Time to do[ it].

bb:

I have *all* the Rubi land up for sale now.

Hucka D.:

It’s time. Good run.

The novel is set on the fictitious island of Nollop, off the coast of South Carolina, which is home to Nevin Nollop, the supposed creator of the well-known pangram “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.” This sentence is preserved on a memorial statue to its creator on the island and is taken very seriously by the government of the island. Throughout the book, tiles containing the letters fall from the inscription beneath the statue, and as each one does, the island’s government bans the contained letter’s use from written or spoken communication. A penalty system is enforced for using the forbidden characters, with public censure for a first offense, lashing or stocks (violator’s choice) upon a second offense and banishment from the island nation upon the third. By the end of the novel, most of the island’s inhabitants have either been banished or have left of their own accord.

The island’s high council becomes more and more nonsensical as time progresses and the alphabet diminishes, promoting Nollop to divine status. Uncompromising in their enforcement of Nollop’s “divine will”, they offer only one hope to the frustrated islanders: to disprove Nollop’s omniscience by finding a pangram of 32 letters (in contrast to Nollop’s 35, or just 33 in the version “A quick brown…”). With this goal in mind “Enterprise 32” is started, a project involving many of the novel’s main characters. With but five characters left (L, M, N, O, and P), the elusive phrase is eventually discovered by Ella in one of her father’s earlier letters: “Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs,” which has only 32 letters. The council accepts this and restores the right to all 26 letters to the populace.

208 MS Jack. (45:47)

Wendy exiting, as she reaches the end of the rainbow painting, cut back to Jack from the angle of where she had been standing. As we hear her footsteps continuing across the floor, Jack returns to work. The scrapbook shows different images and paper is already in the carriage. This shot of Jack appears out of joint with the others, his temperament and face dramatically different, no hint of rage there, but Kubrick has styled the shot so that Wendy’s departing footsteps heard over it tie the cuts together aurally.

The door beyond is now hidden by the lamp. Jack’s position conceals whether or not the table and chair, which were there then gone then returned, are there or not.

Juli contends this is the *real* (or realer) Jack typing the horror story based on the scrapbook he found in the Boiler Room (in King’s book; not shown in or edited out of Kubrick’s film, however, as discussed previously). The typewriter has changed colors from white to gray in the meantime.

Later on in her “Tuesday” section, Juli reveals her “base plan” starting with the above photo…

Jack’s expression is so different here, I really do feel like this is one of the few “real” shots in the film (there are a couple of others), and that the rest are only Kubrick allegory world and mental scenes from Jack working away on his novel. None of this really happens. It is a story. And that’s all right. After all, it’s only a story anyway. It’s fiction from beginning to end.

The film is full of impossibilities from beginning to end, and I have said repeatedly that one can’t approach this realistically. I really do think we have two stories, that of the writer who is at a lodge typing out his story, perhaps one a lot like Stephen King, an alcoholic with anger problems, and the story is inspired by this and a working out of it. And the story is also an allegory, a vehicle for the story Kubrick is intending to tell.

I’ve already discussed this idea of a story within a story (within a story) as well, most likely inspired by an earlier study of Kearns’ massive Shining document. Back to the Base Plan… Juli gives a list of some of the movie’s perceived “90 degree turns” and inexplicable, attached disappearances. She then states…

Fig. 48 – Pyramid and pyramidal trapezoid, monolith, vanishing point and single point perspective, all wrapped up in one, but the apex (and, hence, the vanishing point, the pyramid, the angle of convergence) is obscured.

An expresion for these 90 degree/right angle turns and the disappearances and appearances that seem to be associated with them I again find in the “vanishing point” (angle of convergence) of the trapezoid pyramid shape that is repeated throughout the film. Again, when one views this not as just a trapezoid but a rectangle viewed from an extreme perspective we find in it the disappearing angle of the vanishing point.

Kubrick consistently expresses the trapezoidal pyramid shape in the film with a circle above as if obscuring the angle of convergence. Take a look at the sconce on the wall above Jack’s head and how we have this expressed even in the shadow created by the light and the bottom of the sconce being what obscures the angle of convergence. This is an example of what I’m talking about. A simple expression of light and shadow and geometry.

We see the same later in the peculiar choking poster.

We see it implied in the Colorado flag.

She goes on to give several other examples of this vanishing point, including a corner of the hotel related scrapbook in one shot that appears to be altered by Kubrick to represent this. I personally think Kearns is on to something. She concludes her “Tuesday” section with the following, directly connected to the scrapbook’s sudden, unexplained appearance in the film…

Up to this point in The Shining, things had been going fairly well for Wendy and Danny and Jack at the Overlook, in as much as he hadn’t entered his crisis yet, that state of obsession in which he types over and over again the one phrase, “All work and no play make Jack a dull boy.” But that has now changed. The shift has been made.

Things could even said to be heading *south* from this point on.

Grayson/Sadler 02

Why Sadler? Does it really have to do with the collagist I’m acquainted with? See her Collage Clearinghouse for more about the artist. Why South/Dixie attached to Sadler? Julie is not from the South. South may stand for an immersion in an illusion, like Dixie, like Gone With The Wind’s Dixie.

Note: There are *tons* of Dixies strewn across the US, but only 2 “South”s.

But I also think it represent incarnation in a physical form — that kind of illusion. Love Lee. Love Lee (illusion of Lee as South’s savior). Gray is the color of Confederate uniforms. We are all confederates here on Earth, in this school.

Whitehouse, Maryland use to be called Black Rock. 2 Black Rocks in Grayson County, KY, with a White Run on its western side. White, gray, black. Whitehouse is the only *variant* name of Black Rocks in US that’s primary. Black Rock name is most attached to Grayson County, KY (as Sadler is to Grayson County, period).

http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Rock

The Black Rock was a fully-rigged 19th century British trading ship that was found shipwrecked on the Island and overgrown by the jungle. The ship carried a cargo of slaves, dynamite, and other equipment intended for mining. In the midst of a large storm at sea, a massive wave swept the vessel inland, causing it to crash violently into the statue of Taweret, thus toppling the structure, leaving only the foot of the statue intact. This wave carried the ship far into the interior of the Island where it finally came to rest in an area known as the “Dark Territory”. The ship was captained by Magnus Hanso, who was allegedly buried somewhere close to the wreck. In 2007, Hugo Reyes destroyed the ship by detonating the remaining dynamite.

We know from 1P that Black Rock resonates with the Twin Peaks’ Black Lodge thru “loss of arms”. There’s also a White Lodge, another black-white duality.

Only prominent US North in Orangeburg Co., *South* Carolina. North is circular, like an orange itself. Nearby are Norway, Sweden and Denmark, all northern world countries. Very Nordic, very white with blue eyes/blonde hair type of places.

The initial meeting is supposed to have taken place with aliens who were ‘Nordic’ in appearance, but the agreement was eventually ‘signed’ with a race called ‘Alien Greys’.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_aliens

Nordic aliens (also known as space brothers) are said by self-described contactees and some UFOlogists to be a group of humanoid extraterrestrials who resemble European racial images, or more specifically Nordic-Scandinavians.

Stephanie Kelley-Romano observes that “white extraterrestrials are those that are most revered”, compared to other beings like the greys, and argues that claimants may use their stories about extraterrestrials “as a means of articulating racially based fears”.[5]

Grayson = et contact. What happened at Whitehouse?

http://exopolitics.org/Study-Paper-8.htm

At his farewell speech in 1961, President Eisenhower was possibly alluding to the growing power of national security agencies that dealt with the extraterrestrial presence and were gaining great power as a result of the dilemma over what to do with the extraterrestrial presence:

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.

If the President was dissatisfied with the non-disclosure of the extraterrestrial presence, then his speech was indicating that the responsible national security agencies were both dominating public policy and taking a ‘hard-line approach’ that was inconsistent with American democratic ideals.

Grayson/Sadler

Hmm.

https://bakerbloch.wordpress.com/?s=sadler

Sadler (Julie) is a collagist, but she’s changed her name since Pietmond days.

The remaining Grayson, (3rd; sans Sadler):

Ripshin, Grayson County, Virginia.

Additional note: 2 separate Black Rocks occur in Grayson County, KY.

Additional note: Joe (TX), Cartwright (near TX), Ponderosa (KY).

Additional note: Sadler-Dixie, TX. Sadler-South, KY (obvious!).

Aditional note: *Also*, to reinforce above, Sadler-Southmayd, TX (!).

Additional note: Wax in Grayson County, KY (Bee, Byrd — Poe).

Additional note: Whitetop Mtn. in extreme nw corner of Grayson County, VA, which also contains a Whitetop village. All other Grayson Counties harbor “White” town oddities as well. Whitewright, TX on edge of that Grayson County, and White Mound and White Rock close, as already talked about. Larger Whitesboro, TX near opposite edge of same county. White Run near western line of Grayson County, KY. WHITE reinforced — run of Whites.

1/21/14 update:

Sadler may instead be referring primarily to William S. Sadler, who helped publish the controversial Urantia book claimed to be channeled from an extraterrestrial source.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_S._Sadler

In 1910, Sadler went to Europe and studied psychiatry for a year under Sigmund Freud. Sometime between 1906 and 1911, Sadler attempted to treat a patient with an unusual sleep condition. While the patient was sleeping he spoke to Sadler and claimed to be an extraterrestrial. Sadler spent years observing the sleeping man in an effort to explain the phenomenon, and eventually decided the man had no mental illness and that his words were genuine. The man’s identity was never publicized, but speculation has focused on Sadler’s brother-in-law, Wilfred Kellogg. Over the course of several years, Sadler and his assistants visited the man while he slept, conversing with him about spirituality, history, and cosmology, and asking him questions. A larger number of interested people met at Sadler’s home to discuss the man’s responses and to suggest additional questions. The man’s words were eventually published in The Urantia Book, and the Urantia Foundation was created to assist Sadler in spreading the book’s message. It is not known who wrote and edited the book, but several commentators have speculated that Sadler played a guiding role in its publication. Although it never became the basis of an organized religion, the book attracted followers who devoted themselves to its study, and the movement continued after Sadler’s death.

Quedlinburg treasures
Main article: Theft of medieval art from Quedlinburg

Whitewright was the home of US Lieutenant Joe Tom Meador, who after World War II looted several major pieces of art from a cave near Quedlinburg, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany.

On April 19, 1945, American troops occupied Quedlinburg. Various treasures of art were secured in a cave near the castle Altenburg. Meador was responsible for the security of the cave.

Meador, a soldier with good knowledge of art, recognized the importance of the treasures (among them being Gospel of Samuel and the Crystals of Constantinople). He sent the treasures to Whitewright via army mail, and the art was placed in a safe at the First National Bank of Whitewright.

Meador died in 1980, and his heirs tried to sell ten pieces of Beutekunst (looted art) on the international art market. After a long search and judicial processes, the art was returned to Germany in 1992 and were investigated because of damages to the pieces. At first those stolen artefacts were exhibited in Munich and Berlin but were finally returned to Quedlinburg in 1993. However, two of the pieces stolen by Meador are still in the United States at an unknown location.

On April 20, 2000, the IRS and the Meador family settled for $135,000.

Tom Bean
Tom Bean was a mysterious character that showed up in Grayson County one day – having just traded his horse and pistol for a wagon with a yoke of oxen carrying a barrel of whiskey. He had everything needed to open a saloon and so he did – naming it the White Elephant for what he considered his end of the trade. His profession other than saloonkeeper was said to be that of surveyor.

He bought or traded his services for so much land that it was said he could ride to Austin (a three day trip) and camp out every night on property he owned. Reportedly he owned 25,000 acres in Grayson County alone.

When asked where he hailed from – his usual reply was “from a Bean patch.” Bean carried books with him and volumes of Shakespeare and Dickens seemed to be favorites. He was a Mason and a clean-shaven man – rather unusual for that period. According to one source he had one blue and one brown eye. He was not married, although he had a woman with him and quite a few children running around the place. He was described as always carrying an umbrella and wearing a bee-gum hat – whatever that was.

He granted 100 acres of land to the railroad – having the town named in his honor in return. When he died, over 100 people filed claims against the estate, making it one of the most famous of Texas civil law suits. Tom Bean is buried in the Willow Wild cemetery in Bonham, Texas.

The Tom Bean Tom Cats are the local high school football team.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago_Cubs#1902.E2.80.931920:_A_Cub_dynasty

In 1902, Spalding, who by this time had revamped the roster to boast what would soon be one of the best teams of the early century, sold the club to Jim Hart, and the franchise became known as the Chicago Cubs.[6] During this period, which has become known as baseball’s dead-ball era, Cub infielders Joe Tinker, Johnny Evers, and Frank Chance were made famous as a double-play combination by Franklin P. Adams’ poem Baseball’s Sad Lexicon. The poem first appeared in the July 18, 1910 edition of the New York Evening Mail. Mordecai “Three-Finger” Brown, Jack Taylor, Ed Reulbach, Jack Pfiester, and Orval Overall were several key pitchers for the Cubs during this time period. With Chance acting as player-manager from 1905 to 1912, the Cubs won four pennants and two World Series titles over a five-year span. Although they fell to the “Hitless Wonders” White Sox in the 1906 World Series, the Cubs recorded a record 116 victories and the best winning percentage (.763) in Major League history. With mostly the same roster, Chicago won back-to-back World Series championships in 1907 and 1908, becoming the first Major League club to play three times in the Fall Classic and the first to win it twice. However, the Cubs have not won a World Series since; this remains the longest championship drought in North American professional sports.

Macon Bacon with the Big Sink

So there’s no doubt that Lisa the Vegetarian can make money off Winesap: she was macon (making) bacon. Cash, Priceville… too many clues here. Cub wins suppressed for psychic energy so the story will go. None of your bee’s wax. Ernie Banks was given compensation as Mr. Cub. Banks is also in UmapS. Banks started as a Kansas City Monarch of the Negro League in 1950 before joining Chicago in 1953, becoming their first black player. This is coded into Oregon, alongside some Dorothy Gale-Kansas material. Kansas City Life probably involved, the first 2 movie synchronicity, technically (Kansas on both sides, City [Centerville] in the middle). Kansas City Life = Second Life, as Kansas City is second city of Missouri (as Chicago is second city of US of A, also known as City of *Big* Shoulders and *Windy* City). Ernie Banks also coded into Mississippi. Popular related quotes: “It’s a beautiful day for a ballgame… Let’s play two!” and, “Without him, the Cubs would finish in Albuquerque!” Also called “Mr. Sunshine,” perhaps relating to “Mr. Bluebird” of ELO.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernie_Banks#Honors

On March 31, 2008, a statue of Banks was unveiled outside Wrigley Field. Upon its unveiling, the base of the statue was revealed to contain a typographical error, reading “Lets play two” rather than the grammatically correct “Let’s play two”. Two days later, sculptor Lou Cella came down to the ballpark early in the morning and carved the apostrophe.

Sunfish, KY

All Sunfish, Kentucky is is a crossroads. And this is what I found less than a minute into the “visit” — very easy to spot in Streetview. It only appears in 1 shot, seen in the middle picture below. Otherwise the location is very nondescript.
