<marlasinger> The storm starts when the drops start dropping. When the drops stop dropping then the storm starts stopping.
<marlasinger> the symbol on the pew was nothing abnormal, lostgurl - it was just marking the middle of the pews as far as I can tell
<marlasinger> Yeah, this is it, guys
<marlasinger> that poem was leading to this
<giddeanx> where are you seeing it?
<marlasinger> and we're 2 days away
<marlasinger> The storm starts when the drops start dropping. When the drops stop dropping then the storm starts stopping.
then some ideas about it all
<Killthesmiley> thats REALLY symbolic
<marlasinger> Yeah, this is it, guys
<Killthesmiley> ...really scary too
<Sweet_Elixir> and STORM - jonas's parents were in a storm
<Lola12> so the storm has started but somehow I don't think it's stopped
<nowherepixie> ooh good point
<Killthesmiley> i think the storm means more so...of...
<Killthesmiley> you know
<Killthesmiley> this...weirdness with maddy
<Killthesmiley> like...an emotional storm
<Skunkwaffle> just the general crazyness aroudn Maddy
<Skunkwaffle> yeah
<Killthesmiley> for her an zipp
<Sweet_Elixir> could have a double meaning
<Skunkwaffle> maybe it has a quintuple meaning
<Sweet_Elixir> lol yeah
<Killthesmiley> it could have a lot of meanings really
<marlasinger> It could
Oh yeah. I'm that girl on FOB Life who Rafine said that Reza, Jackson, and Yousef all wanted to screw when I called in.

lolz

Thanks a lot, Kelly! ^_^ Glad we found it. Can a mod please split this topic up into another one though so it doesn't get confusing?

Drop

Post by honeybee627 »

Okay guys, I've never done this before, so please bear with me.

Here it is:

http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s146 ... =drops.jpg


As you can see, (er...I hope) it's pretty minimal this time. There was no envelope, this page was just folded in three and taped on underneath a pew. I think whoever said that "below the head" meant "under the head of a person sitting in a pew" had the right idea. It turned out to be simpler than what I was thinking.

Thanks so much to Marla & Panda for keeping me company and to Kellylen for keeping up with the transcribing.

I am just so glad I could help!

I can't wait to find out what it means. I have no doubt that you guys will have it solved before I even get home from work. I am seriously in awe of the skills in this group.

I don't know how to make a picture of this, but following the method Deagol described before for previous drops, the guitar tabs translate to:

Well, it appears to me that perhaps Mr. Zipp is afraid his message won't reach the right people/person?
