So Mel Gibson has a new movie coming out: Apocalypto. I saw somewhere that there's a hidden frame in the trailer, so I had to check it out for myself. Here's a link to what I found, in case you want to see for yourself.
http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/3249/apocalypto6ts.png
If you want to look for it, watch the trailer, pause it when you see the screaming monkey (about where the N is in "everyone"), then go back frame by frame (easiest for me in Quicktime) slowly.

All's I have to say is What the Crap?!

Ehh, my WTC moment is so lame compared to y'all's. o-o;

We received letters from our English teachers next year on the last day of school this year about what to expect. It included a list of stuff they would like us to have by the first day (because in high school they no longer believe in "supply lists," despite the fact that they're far more convenient than raiding the shelves of WalMart for scraps after the elementary/middle school kids, who do have supply lists, have pillaged all five Back2School aisles). Pretty standard stuff - three ring binder, dividers, college-rule notebook paper...but the fourth or fifth item reads, and I quote:
Quote:
Variety of highlighters (no yellow or neon colors)


That leaves an incredibly wide variety of possibilities, and by that I mean there are zero possibilities. Personally, I see highlighted things much more easily when they're neon - they're brighter, and actually less distracting. Because they're lighter, and therefore more subtle. Neon yellow is actually the best. It draws your eyes to the highlighted text but you're able to ignore the "THERE IS A COLOR HERE" stimulus because it's usually pretty close to the color of your paper. And if you're highlighting in books, highlighter colors go on slightly darker than they do on printer paper, meaning you have to struggle through the layer of semitransparent color to see what you highlighted in the first place.

o_O; Well. That was a long post.

Ooooh! I do so love a good-old-fashioned ghost story. :mrgreen: You know, this reminds me of a What The Heck story my dad told me some time ago about something that happened to him.

Several years ago, he was helping my cousins move from Georgia to Phoenix, and it was a long, multi-day excursion. One late night, he stopped at a truck stop/roadside restaurant. He was sort of sleepy, and he stepped inside.

The entire restaurant was filled with nothing but stern-looking women in business suits. As soon as he opened the door, every single one of them turned and just looked at him...

He hightailed it outta there pretty durn fast!

I get scared VERY easy, but I LOVE ghost and alien stories, speaking of which...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ma ... First_Kind

I've been pondering over that latley, and some of the UFO's people have claimed to see on the forum resemble the descriptions of these >_>

I saw the same UFO twice. It was a slow moving orange ball. The first time I saw it, it had a triangular tail that was a slightly different color from it. The second time, it was perfectly circular and it was spiralling around with another one just like it... I think they were fighting.

Once a man was stealing his neighbors hubcaps. His neighbor didn't see him, and ran over his hand. The hubcap thief sued that guy for 70,000$ and won.

What the crap?

I've seen that stuff too. It's pretty cool looking. But my UFO was perfectly round (minus its cone-shaped tail, which was also quite geometrically smooth), and the second time I saw it--them--they moved in an almost gyroscopic way... like stars orbiting around one another.

It might've been a classical "foo fighter." I don't really know.

The only thing close to a alien thing I've seen was at science camp a few weeks back, our group of about 10 people was sitting in the middle of the forest watching and finding constellations. My friend sits up and tells me and another kid to look over across the field. And sure enough, there's this really faint white thing, moving back and forth, slowly coming forward.
We alerted the group, and everyone started freaking out. It was too fast and not even close to a human, and even our naturalist started freaking out. But I suppose he dismissed it/didn't care enough to find out, so he jumped up behind the girls and screamed, and then yelled "COME ON! RUN!!!" and they ran away. Unfortunetly, we walked back to camp with them, instead of finding out what it was. We returned the next day, and there were no footprints in the snow.

It still haunts me today. Was it a real alien? I dunno. But its nothing like I've ever seen before.

*waits for you to call me crazy*

Ahh, I know the answer to this, it happens to many people. It's not alien, trust me. It has to do with some kind of mineral that is picked up, usually by a swamp or sometimes after rain, and it makes a white glowing light, and yes it can move. This is the explanation. And Here is what you're talking about.

You wanna know something "What the crap?!" Whenever I read stuff where people I know or talk to people I know who have seen some alien type thing I cry. >_>

I'm not crying...Anymore. XD

That site is usually pretty good for a laugh. Check out some of the Japanese Zelda commercials... huh, who knew they liked puppets so much? XD

What about the German commercials? (NONE of that was in the game. Except for the Zelda in the cage part) Or what about those lame ones in our continent? XD

What the crap to this (Most of these what the crap?! things I will post will be some kind of paranormal stuffs):

Let's see the government make up an excuse for this or this.

Oooh yes. German commercials are nuts. But then again, so are American ones...

Today's WTC: Those MMazing bars. For the life of me, I don't undertstand them. They're chocolate... covered in more chocolate? Huh? What's the purpose of the M & M's shell even being there? You might as well just make a solid chocolate bar and call it a day.

I don't think they had photographic fakery in 1952. >_> Though I could be wrong:

Try the 1800's. Ever heard of the "fairy pictures" faked sometime therabouts? People have been manipulating photographs for a looong time.

Wikipedia knows, but I'm too tired to ask it.

They could have just cut the ufo out a picture of a toy or model flying suacer, pasted it on a background photo, then photographed the cut-and-paste to make it look more authentic.

I once saw a ufo, but nobody believed me. It was a green and orange streak that was moving relatively fast, stopped and hovered for a second, then went back the way it came. And by mom saw a light outside her 2nd story window that looked like the front of the car from Knight Rider. (Kit?)

Exept for, I'm not in any of the listed areas, and it wasn't really a light, either. It was really hard to see in the dark, almost like it wasn't there, but almost all of the group could see it. But yeah, you're right in saying that is probably something similar to that. But, maybe not. I suppose I'll never know....
