Just to say I am catching a whiff of something going on.  Could just be the start of Hurricane season, could be something else.  If it is something else I will be back.

Seeing some unusual traffic that could be Hurricane preparedness or I don't know.   Just need to watch for a day or two and see if it keeps up.

I have a friend who is a genuis btw, any way he has this theory about terrorist activity, it has to do with dates that correspond with significant numbers in Islam. He has been correct on something like five out of eight predicitons so far. His latest is 06/06/06. I can't remember now what he said the number 666 represents in Islam, but it doesn't mean the same thing as in the Christian world. In Islam it's a positive number.
Hey, has anyone ever heard that the zip code for the Sear Tower in Chicago is 060606? I could be speaking in code here, maybe. five out of eight isn't bad

Hey rodin, my husband said to me the other day, "did you know we are approaching 06/06/06 in a few days?"....I shrugged it off and said, "so"...but it scared me and made me think.  Then he came back and said,"could it be the day of something big to start?".....he knows I read about the avian flu and I have "made" him read some articles...he thinks it is scary but at the same time he is avoiding the issue....but perhaps all this talk about 06/06/06 has got him thinking.

We live close to a military base. Almost everyday there are a couple planes and helicopters that fly over, but this past week we have seen helicopters with big red crosses on them.

It would seem to me that military movement from various locations would be expected....We had a lot of movement here at one time....now in North Carolina you say?....hmmmmm could it be because we are at war?
Not meaning to sound so sarcastic but I guess it bothers me that sometimes people in this country seem to forget that we are in the middle of not one but 2 wars.
Insanity is making the same mistakes and expecting different results....therefore...Those who don't learn from history are bound to go insane.

There is a big 'national FEMA' hurricane preparation conference going on right now to plan for the new hurricane season. All the shoreline states are involved.

Uh, that's the number of posts that he has total, not the post number... I would suggest learning about the messageboard a little more before you go spouting tripe like this. Sorry for the bluntness, but gracious, it's rather annoying to find a conspiracy theorist in every single thread...
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort!

Ok Folks, just chill the heck out. Let me also say I did not expect the response and I am very sorry if I freaked you way out.

As a way of explaining myself. Over the past three weeks I have been seeing a lot of traffic on Hurricane season. I have also seen some things which could go to other things. Yesterday I saw something come across that was very unusual. Posted that I had a whiff of something and I would get back when I knew for sure. I did not expect the response. It was just a way of giving you a heads up that something unusual was happening.

Spent the morning tracking it down. It is only Contingence planning and putting things in place that can be used IN THE EVENT we have ANY type of disaster in the country.

I now understand why no one wants to put anything out until all of the facts are in. That will not happen again.

To alay a lot of you fears, the Government is leaning very far forward to be there when needed. I think Katrina and Wilma got to them. They are doing every thing they can to not let that happen again.

Two new sites are now up one is www.ready.com and the other is www.citizencorps.gov.

Folks I have been just as spooked as you on the Avian Flu. However this experience has taught me to keep my mouth shut.

Major Dad hopes you are all alive and well and looking out for each other

I’d like to know if you see anything happening.  We’re not going to get an official notice that a pandemic has begun - we have to watch for it.

And to the crowd -  people can disagree with each other without being rude.

MAJDAD, Please keep brainstorming. That’s what I call a lot of us doing when we put out what we see, hear, suspect, think we’ve observed, overheard someone’s business, etc. Please ignore those who speak so quickly and don’t investigate or question others respectfully.

 

My comments on the military movements: We are buying a large piece of equipment from another state. Suddenly on Wednesday night 11:15PM our salesman calls, waking us up at home to tell us he’s been activated and gave us his employers’ number to call the next morning to make different delivery arrangements. He’s National Guard. It is that time of year for their two-three week maneuvers; I guess that’s what happened to him. HMMMM????

 

Please continue to speak with your suspicions and I for one will listen and brainstorm with you. Thanks.

NOOOOOO MAJDAD

I love your posts and really look forward to them. Please keep the info going.
We all seem a bit edgy. There are other potential problems looming. Things are threatening to overwhelm us. IMO we need to know about everything that people are observing.

This could happen to any of us with any thread we start but we can't be silent. No harm, no foul.

Funny how MAJDAD (a.k.a. MajDad and majdad) is having such a good time running this exact same thread on wiki today.  His posts here can be viewed verbatim over there, and what d'ya know...he's also left all of them hanging in limbo with his cryptic messages throughout this entire day as well.  Oh, whoops, except for when he popped in once or twice to tell them to go "back to sleep," that is.

This guy, whoever he may or may not be, has watched dozens of people beg him all day long for details. He's popped in and out of the message boards for hours and hours without once bothering to clarify himself or to assuage people's concerns.   In fact, he's waited all day long to wrap this ridiculous thread up with nothing but a lame story about hurricane-preparedness.

After reading through MAJDAD's pasts posts I conclude that it's a tough call as to whether or not it's really him.  The syntax is very similar.  I can only hope that it's not him though, because he's never toyed with people nor wasted their time like this before.
