Certain Death?
Baw Beese L., source of St. Joseph River Lake Michigan, helps change Osseo to safer Oesso. Think Possom to Opossum once more.
“Thanks!”
The “Endless Window” collage changes accordingly.

Peters’ town
When Oesso, Osseo, and Esso get all smushed together, this happens. I think it is a *sign* to probe further. Let’s move inside…
“welcoming” lozenge
—–
A church with double red doors. Sounds familiar.
—–
I believe that’s an elephant over there at that fork in the cement almost across the street. Sure of it, actually.
The red truck seen at the entrance sign has just managed to turn onto the main highway. Red is going away in both cases as the double red church doors become irresolute as well. Elephant is at its peak.
—–
In the next shot where the elephant also becomes less distinct, both reds are gone.

There is a possibility for more here.

continuation
Peter Esso walked right by it on the way the bookstore to look at that map of Michigan again in the old atlas he’d found the day before last Wednesday’s Sunday. Or something. He’d had an epiphany the night before. The two St. Joseph Rivers of that state are actually one St. Joseph Rivers, er, River. “Eureka!” he cried while climbing out of the bathtub, still soaking wet as he padded toward the computer and the map of Hillsdale County he left up on it, a *modern* version but still one indicating where the conjoined sources lie: Osseo.
Osseo, 6000 years in the future.
Thus the purchase of the Esso t-shirt from the Marketplace, and also the old sign reinforcing to himself that he was indeed a tiger (see: Wheeler). And then the name change: SoSo to Esso, but the one embedded in the other thanks to Osseo, he understood.
Wait — he has an idea.

“See? It’s all about Greenup, Mr. Babyface. This Floydada Lime it’s called.”
“All (sections) named after fruit?”
“That is correct my fine neighbor.” His voice was mild and youthful; his neighbor’s gruff and aged, countering the babyface appearance.
“Well… if you’re Pierre, as you say, then this town is in for a lot of turning upside down soon. Do you plan to bring back Carr?” Carr was short for Carrcassonnee, the former, alien ruler of Collagesity/7 Stones before the 2016 coup.
“It all depends,” he replies to the babyface man with the gruff, aged voice. “Tell me all about this Wheeler.”
—–
“Damn eyesore it is,” Mr. Babyface suddenly declared, pausing in his spiel about present town ruler Wheeler. “Look at that thing looming up in the air.” He indicated out the window at the boxy Edwardston Station Gallery, the skybox everyone in town is voting on whether to keep. We have two naysayers in the matter sitting here in Mr. Babyface’s lower floor of his Kidd Tower apartment. Mr. Babyface decided “no” the minute he set eyes on the cube; The Man About Time’s choice came a little later. And now he had “Floydada.”
—–
“There’s also a ‘Floydadada’, Mr. Babyface. That’s the one I want next — might even be in SoSo. When I find that I’ll tell the townspeople who I really am, and that I wasn’t killed atall in that giant Lake District gash known as Piers Gill. Instead: Gills Pier. Michigan. 2052.”
But Mr. Babyface knew all about the legend of Pierre Schaeffer. It had been taught in his schools since he was a babyfaced lad.
“Let me show you something, neighbor. *Confidant*.” He scrolls the page down just a bit. “This is me.”

pretty things
“Bucket of nails,” requests Wilson to Terry. “And make it bloody.”
“Ahem,” intercedes Baker Bloch. “Not open yet, Wilson. Sorry.”
“Yeah, sorry,” echoes Terry. He tries to size up his new potential customer, but can’t quite make out what’s the deal-i-o. Baker helps.
“So you’re a man again,” he states to Wilson.
“Yeah. A pretty man. Let me show you. You haven’t seen yet.”
“Just a glimpse at the police station. How’s Burt the Cop doing?”
“Brutus?” replies Wilson. “Prostitute problems as usual. Gaston’s filled with them, even choking on them. Berries. Cherry, Raspberry, Blueberry. Lemon. Yes, Berry is fully intertwined with Gaston. You knew Lemon on Mars didn’t you?”
“I did,” states Baker, thinking back fondly to his stay in futuristic INSCO. “Have you seen her? She ran around with Sugar then, but wasn’t a prostitute (like her) at the time. Circumstances must have changed. Science is getting tough to swallow for many.”
“I’m not sure she’s really a whore there,” says Wilson. “She could be undercover. Brutus hinted at so much. Purple Gang. Burt Lake Band. Crooked.”
“Oden, then,” responds Baker.
“Yeah. Have you seen him?”
“Old Gregg?”
“Right.”
“Maybe a glimpse as well at Morrison. Rockabilly Cafe. But we’re done filming there.” He pauses. “And you haven’t shown me the new face yet.”
Wilson changes.
“That’s way too pretty, man,” Baker offers. “For a man. How about a scar? What do you think Terry?”

“It was something more this time. It was beyond Peter Dunne. Done Deal Dunne.”
bb:
So Rainbowology comes from the Cross of the Lamb idea but extends beyond it.
Carr.:
Rainbowology is something new. A seed. Ylem. Apple. Maumee. Oblio. Birth. Then Farr takes over, har har.
bb:
Glad you liked that.
Carr.:
I made it (!)
bb:
Not surprising. Where is all this heading?
Carr.:
Billfork. You must look.

on 2 St. Joe’s, and then… *rainbowology*!
Just fyi and to complete the thing, I kind of reversed the rainbowology story below tonight to have it being born in Ft. Wayne, at the beginning of the Maumee R., and then die in Toledo, at its end, when native Farr assumes his eerie position as world controller. Believe what you will of it.

It shares its name with the St. Joseph River of Lake Michigan, but the two rivers flow in generally opposite directions.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Joseph_River_%28Maumee_River%29
The St. Joseph River forms in northern Williams County, Ohio, at the confluence of the East and West branches at 41°38′54″N 84°33′55″W[2][3][4] Both branches rise in southern Hillsdale County, Michigan. The headwaters of the East Branch are within 3 miles (4.8 km) of those of the St. Joseph River of Lake Michigan.

“Peter finds a map of Hillsdale County in a Newton library in the late 1800s or early 1900s. The 2 St. Joe Rivers are joined. They are the same river. At a certain point they are separated as 2 snakes separated from each other. This occurs at Ft. Wayne.
birth of baby rainbowology
Early in its history, rainbowology development was jump-started by Johnny Appleseed’s discovery of the irrevocable differences between apples and oranges, and never the twain shall meet. Reminds me of the famous knock knock joke that ends, “orange you glad I didn’t say apple?”
In 1969 Defiance, Ohio native Frank Floydada discovered the genetic link between apples, oranges, lemons and limes, and was brutally beaten and murdered for his revelations, as well as discredited. Rainbowology continued to flourish.
In 1979, actor Maxwell Jamie Klinger Farr discovered the first mashup during a break on the set of AfterMASH. While watching an episode of The Munsters where Lilly Herman says, “take my hand” to a palm reading customer, in the next trailer over fellow AfterMASH star Henry General Potter Morgan viewed Helen Krump taking the hand of Andy Griffith in marriage on the 1st episode of Mayberry R.F.D. They later compared notes; Farr’s famous “Mayberry Munster MASH” creation soon followed. Johnny Appleseed’s long standing apples-against-oranges edict first became vulnerable.
In 1983, backwards messages in Gary Burghoff’s acid jazz album “Radar Spelled Backwards is Still Radar” revealed that Farr is an alien from the planet 3M orbiting the red giant Aldebaran who intends to take over the world by morphing it into a colossal mashup over the next 30 years. “Mayberry Munster MASH” was just the seed, the messages imply; Burghoff has refused comments.
https://i.chzbgr.com/maxW500/4830356736/h7832298F/
In 2013, true to the “Radar” messages, Farr actually took control of our planet, although he then quickly manipulated time so that everyone would forget this. The corpse of Rainbowology was discarded into an eerie, unmarked grave. MASHUP is ubiquitous.

Zap
The Zappers live at the terminus of Frank Park’s 4th Way, Hucka. Chuck and possibly a wife. Like Charlie or Chuck Brown. Chuck represents unification of Zircon (Zappers), or the Confederation. He must be an expert on the history of the Confederation. Not the Confederacy, mind you — Confederation. This would be 1784. Like the United States under the Articles of Confederation (pre-Constitution) from 1781 to 1789.
Joel Maser was a cousin but perhaps distant. He was an Aardvark (Amethyst). Chuck’s name was Chuck Laser. You can see a laser but not a maser. Maser’s are out of sight — distant, perhaps.
Chuck picks 2130 as an address. Anagram of meaningless numbers — just the first 4 numbers. He uses these 4 numbers over again. Doesn’t want to identify himself with any particular slice of history, good or bad. Not the holocast (1942 — Final Solution) nor the discovery of America, another anagram (1492). No, he chooses 2130 for the neutrality. And thus he perhaps chooses the *location* 2130 for the same. It is in Frank Park but yet it isn’t. Chuck’s house lies on Gun Stream, perhaps Gunn Stream. Smaller than a cannon. It also becomes known, perhaps as the Zap Gunn Stream, because of the presence of The Zappers.
Perhaps more clues will thus be found in Philip Dick’s book “The Zap Gun”.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Zap_Gun
The hieroglyphs on the rock outside the house probably tell the story of The Confederation or Zircon. The Confederation’s land tracks to The United States — Cotton is Texas, for example, Olive is Oklahoma and Tin is the OK panhandle. This transfers directly to GNIRPS and Missouri (LINK). Skillet is the pan and also the pan’s handle — Panhandle. I suppose it would also be the Texas Panhandle.
Also related: Gunn, MS/VA. Simpsons related in both cases, specifically “Who Shot Mr. Burns? (Parts 1 and 2)”.
Olive = Oklahoma and Tin = OK Panhandle may be the center but it also spreads out. Eob = Illinois and Monkey City is Chicago if so. Bridee is Michigan or perhaps centered around the 2 St. Joseph rivers whose source lies close to each other. In hyperspace/time these rivers become St. Johns with sources joined. Michigan becomes the St. John’s severed head. Gurr is Indiana or Ohio — both. Antville is Columbus (Cleveland + Cinncinnati?). Then the whole east coast is more ill defined but covered by Middle Gurr with its Scarlet and Uranium states. Sprurel (Spring Squirrel) is New Orleans, perhaps, or the Fla. panhandle extended west to N.O. Vinee is kind of Tennesse. Wurme is kind of Kentucky and Missouri together. Bean is Missouri. Kob is kind of Indiana again. So what is the center? It appears to be Monkey City = Chicago or else Bridgee = St. Johns’ Rivers united. And a second center is Tin-Olive = Oklahoma, with Tin City = the panhandle as a whole. Tinsity is now an important center of Frank/Herman Park mythology as of several years ago. Named for Tin S. Man of Oz fame, but an alternate or variant Tinman who instead works for Alma, not Ozma. Alma is Ozma’s cousin, perhaps distant (like Maser to Laser — see 1st of this post).
2130: What plans were made within? Who is remaking and repairing the 4th Way even as I write these recent posts on the subject?
Is 2130 the headquarters of GNIRPS?

“Contraption” 03
“The last directly Whitehead Crossing related collage presently is “Jasper 04 Revisited.”
Hucka D.:
Here we have a rock from a neighboring valley — the blog friendly NORRIS, the stream I was briefly married to several years back — placed in the center of Whitehead Crossing. It has a cross, or an “x” if you wish on it. This “x” was not present during my marriage but added later. Is it to mark the rock as a tombstone? Or is it to define it as a symbol of Christianity, perhaps by a follower of that religion? I think the former now.
bb:
I believe I do too, Hucka D.
Hucka D.:
So it’s perched on Orange Hill. This is the Jasper 04 Collage referred to in the title. Most of its elements return in the new work.
bb:
But, as I’m looking at it, everything is turned around in the new collage. Facing left instead of right and visa versa. Everything.
Hucka D.:
Baker and dog — dingo — are perched atop a high rock in both. The rock, again, in Jasper 04 Revisited is the one from Norris. Pull up a pic.

https://bakerbloch.wordpress.com/2013/04/05/whitehead-x-ing-04-norris/img_0089smaller/
*Is* it a tombstone?
bb:
I don’t think so.
Hucka D.:
You sure?
bb:
Not totally sure, no. It *is* in the ground firmly, that’s for sure.
Hucka D.:
But at any rate, this is the crossroads, or marks the crossroads. “X” marks the spot, and so forth and so on, etc.
bb:
Guitar weilding Mouse is now playing in the middle of Whitehead Stream, Hucka D. Playing the the Von Trapp children that may represent rocks or perhaps white-ish rocks within the stream. Mouse himself may be an island in the stream. In fact, all of them are *on* an [ unnamed] island just below Orange Hill. Orange Hill is the cliff above them, with the Norris rock added to the top now to make it more similar in height or at least picture-wise to the rock cliff of Jasper 04. The island, then, becomes important. *Is* it Mouse Island?
Hucka D.:
A [definite] possibility. Good.
bb:
About the only thing that doesn’t reappear from Jasper 04 in the new work is the Gill’s Pier sign, Hucka. That’s Gill’s Pier, Michigan, where in 2052, according to the legend, Pierre will reappear and all carrcasses will be freed of their restrictive chains.
Hucka D.:
A great event it will be. Get prepared[ even now].
bb:
Mouse will be free to play guitar to the Sound of Music children. He can teach them the ABC’s of Do Re Mi.
Hucka D.:
The fox is opposite the dingo. This is death opposed to life. Valley to peak. Bottom to top. The dingo with its diamond tail is perched atop the cliff, like the diamond was pivoted atop a hemlock tree in the former collage just examined.
bb:
Way back in 2009 we examined Jasper 04, Hucka.
I remember the triangle. The Triangle. There’s not really the same kind of equal triangle in the repurposed work.
Hucka D.:
Nah.
bb;
But all the pictorial elements return, however.
Hucka D.:
Yeah. Better end.
bb:
Thank you.
