Giant Alien Saw Falls From Sky

Giant Alien Saw Falls From Sky
Evidence That Giant Aliens Exist
The Grassy Knoll Institute discovered a giant saw blade at the center of a small city in Japan. Eye witnesses said the saw blade fell several hundred feet from a huge hovering saucer-shaped alien craft. Amazingly, it stuck blade down in the earth.
The Grassy Knoll Institute estimates the owner of the giant alien blade exceeds 1200 feet in height with an average weight of 40,000 pounds.
The blade itself is made of a metallic material unknown to man and cannot be dented or cut and thus will remain buried in the ground.
The residents only hope of removal is for another visit from the giant aliens coming back to retrieve their missing tool.
If that happens, the Grassy Knoll Institute will be there to report the outcome.

Lost Update - Sand In Your Shoes


Lost Update – Lost Is Virtual Reality 10/06/2004

You always were a city kid though you were country raised
And back in some forgotten time we shared the cold north days
But the simple life was not your style, and you just had to escape
So it’s goodbye to my lady of the islands.

ABC Lost secrets revealed. The Grassy Knoll Institute believes the survivors are in a virtual reality laboratory connected together as a battery of tests and experiments are performed on them. Not by the Dharma institute, but by aliens.

The survivors are gathering belongings from the plane. The police agent is dying, he is going in and out of consciousness. He warns Jack about Kate, tells him he cannot trust her. Hurley finds out the secret that Kate is the one the agent was bringing back.

The French womens transmission, on a loop for 16 years, stating that they are all dead.

The end of the show, Jack and Kate are sitting on the beach. Jack states that three days ago, we all died. It doesn’t matter who we were, what we did. We are now on the island, with a fresh start. There are now seated in a new environment, a new world, a virtual world. What they do now means everything.

It would appear that the series writers are baiting the viewers in believing they are all dead with Jacks beach statement. But we all different now don’t we. This is merely the shakedown period, a time for the survivors to become accustomed to their new virtual reality world. Everyone’s thoughts interacting, intertwining, becoming one thought.

Until next week Losties.

On Remembrance Day the bands all played, the bells pealed through the park
And you lay there by the “Do Not” signs, and shamed them with your spark
Now winter moans in old men’s bones as the day falls into dark
So it’s goodbye to my lady of the islands.
It was just like this behind the kisses you so soon swept away
I always knew that some day yo’d be bound to just get pulled away…
The summer sun beats on and on, the shops swim in the heat
And you’re standing by the traffic signs with taxis at your feet
I know that in your city skin you’re feeling more complete
So it’s goodbye to my lady of the islands.

No I never got the letters that you said you’d send me
So it’s goodbye to my lady of the islands.

R.E. M. - Not those Guys

For all you know, the hideous hell you are living in is merely a dream, an illusion, mere minutes of R.E.M. sleep state.
Safely asleep, tucked away in a warm bed in a small sleepy hollow town. Content to be manacled to your pitiful 9 to 5 job at the local employer. Imagine the horror when you finally awake and realize that your dream is actually reality, and reality is a mere figment of your imagination.
Now ain't that like losing your religion.
PLEASANT DREAMS.....From the Grassy Knoll Institute.

Lost Update - Second Verse Same As The First


Lost Update – Lost Is Virtual Reality 09/27/2004

All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go
Im standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin, its early morn
The taxis waiting, hes blowin his horn
Already I’m so lonesome I could cry.

In part one of the two part pilot episode of the ABC series, “Lost” we found out that a jet malfunctioned and was blown more than a thousand miles off course. Knowing this, the search party is more than likely searching in the wrong location and will eventually deem the passengers as missing and then dead.

Next, we notice that there is a diverse group of passengers that survived. A rock star, debutantes, strong willed women, a doctor, a pregnant woman, a thug, a gentle giant, and from many different nationalities. And, it seems that all of them have some sort of secret to hide. What would that secret be?

There are 48 survivors. And not a single cell phone works. Very odd indeed. Yes, yes, out of range and how so convenient. The island looks harmless enough. A standard South Pacific paradise with plenty of green plantation and brush. And, oh yea, an invisible monster that crashes through the brush and comes right to the foliage line stopping just before the shore. A strange for-boding sound is emanating from this invisible creature and seems to be the central focal point of the series. And did you notice the size of this island? Its bigger than the big island of Hawaii. How can this island not be inhabited? And how could this tropical paradise not be cultivated by some business entrepreneur and have it turned into another Mecca of paradise for the elite and famous?

At nightfall, as everyone gathered around the fire, the doctor decides to look for the rest of the fuselage in hopes of finding the transceiver in hopes of communicating with the outside world. At daybreak, a small group embark on their journey. They find the fuselage, and a pilot that is alive, and the transceiver. Ahh, but the monster shows up yet again. Still invisible but this time sucks the pilot from the plane. The others run in fear and after several minutes of TV drama, they escape alive.

So, with all these clues, where are these people? I’m glad you asked. Let’s eliminate where they cannot be. Rod Serling is deceased so you can throw out the Twilight Zone. You can also skip over a remake of the old 1960’s TV show, “The New People”, the show about a plane wrecked crew of young people on a deserted island that was an abandoned nuclear weapons test site. That show only lasted one season. You can toss out the Bermuda Triangle, we are talking the Pacific Ocean, and last I heard, the Atlantic was where the Triangle resided.

OK, here is the kicker. You have waited long enough. Here’s the scoop. The plane wrecked survivors of Lost are actually abductee’s taken from an alien race and the island they are stranded on is a very life like laboratory. (Hold on, take a breath, flex your neck, and read on) The aliens, knowing they got the mix of passengers they want, take control of the plane and make it look like an accident to the FAA. This leaves all the people needed at the disposal of the alien race.

But for what reason you ask:
The survivors are in virtual reality induced coma’s and are all interconnected to one another. My thoughts are your thoughts type of interaction. With this type of environment, the aliens are able and capable to conduct any scientific, or biological experiment on their agenda.

The monster is merely the beginning of the experiment, to determine that everyone is hooked in to the virtual reality simulator. Anyone not seeing the monster is removed. Hence the people dying.

Throughout the series, the alien race will put obstacles in the passengers way to record and study their reactions, how they group together, how they work together, and how their imaginations become more vivid each passing hour. They will be studying the herd. The monster is just like the monster in the Movie, “Forbidden Planet”, a giant vicious invisible monster driven by the doctors ego, super ego, and id. The more the doctor was pushed, the more powerful and daring and jealous the monster became until it was uncontrollable and finally came into the camp and started killing the other people on the planet.

Saying this, perhaps Lost is a rehashed modern day Twilight Zone episode. You know the one. Where there are people trapped in a pit and there is no escape. A clown, a ballerina, a doctor, nurse, Indian, soldier, business man. They don’t know how they got there. They just woke up and they were there. As the days waned on, more people showed up while they slept. All became suspicious of each other and it was making it difficult to work together. Until that is, the people finally realized that they weren’t people at all, but dolls discarded by a child.

The sign post up ahead, The Twilight Zone….

The Elevator

Another sound was just heard overhead. Could it be that they have returned? Maybe it was just a stray Tom cat or mangy dog scrounging for food. At that point, it was very difficult to determine reality from illusion. Maybe I should just come out of hiding and get it all over with. That's what they want anyway. To find me. To Kill Me.They have been hunting me ever since they obliterated the earth and enslaved the population. It was inevitable that one day they would find me. It has been 41 days since I have ventured above ground and soaked in the warm rays of the sun. Instead, I have chosen to survive, if you call it that, living in a burned out basement of a long since abandoned building. In a flash, a loud piercing bell sounded.

It was an elevator bell. Unaware, I was somehow teleported and was now standing inside a moving elevator. Trapped like the proverbial rat. Oh my god, they have finally found me. Panic and anxiety set in. "Excuse me sir," the elevator operator inquired, "You did say the 13th floor didn't you?" I panicked. I pushed the operator out of the door, formulating my escape route, knowing that for at least today, this moment, they would not get their prize, their feast, their trophy. I chanted over and over as I ran from the complex, "I will survive one more day."

"What's his problem?", the operator said to the bystanders. One of the others spoke up and said, "You know those traveling salesmen and how high strung they can be making cold calls."

Lost Secrets - Leaving On a Jet Plane


Lost Secrets - Virtual Reality 09/23/2004
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Hold me like you’ll never let me go.
I’m leavin on a jet plane
I don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
The Grassy Knoll Institute Reveals All The Secrets About The ABC Series, LOST.
I watched the new series "Lost" last night. It was about a horrific plane crash that went down 1000 miles off course leaving 48 survivors stranded on an island. And oh yes, there is a terrible huge invisible monster roaming the island. The Lost pilot was very entertaining but many things did not jive and some scenes were all too familiar. At fisrt notice, my thought process was that the passenegers were all dead and were placed on this island in some sort of Purgatory. But, no, Hell no, it couldn't be about that. Could it?
To start, the premise. Way back in the 1970′s, there was a series that came on right after “Music explosion” titled “The New People”. It was about a group of people stranded on a desert island and all they had to survive was themselves. Until they found an abandoned town smack dab in the middle of the island. The island was stacked with food supplies, water, cars, houses, everything. Except people. Anyway, the reality of the show was that these people were stranded on an island that the U.S. Government had targeted for nuclear bomb testing and was preparing to monitor the effects of the explosion and fallout. Or, was the plan scrapped and forgotten. Each episode would dwell on that. Lets hope LOST is not based on this show. It only lasted one and a half seasons.
Next familiarity. One of the pilots said that they tried to turn back to Australia. Then the tail section broke off and were blown more than a thousand miles off course. The plane crashed where no search party will be looking. This is the tie in tho Tom Hanks movie, “Castaway, ” the movie about a Federal Express Executive left stranded on a deserted island by himself and left with only his wits and desire to be reunited with his wife. The plane was blown off course and the search party was looking in the wrong place. But, it can’t be based on that movie, its been done already. And besides, who would be Wilson?
This TV show is not what you think it is about. The Grassy Knoll Institute will offer up its theory with fact, fiction, and a little back seat driving. But, you will be shocked what we reveal in the next LOST update.
Stay tuned. Part two of the Lost pilot will be discussed and the Grassy Knoll Institute theory fully revealed and mapped out.
Each and every week Lost airs I will post an update on how my theory holds against the episode and the entire theory on Lost.
