Board index » found green painted brass weight at yard sale - Euclid storage unit origin| EndTimesEli Inner Circle ★★★★★      Posts: 927 Reputation: +7 ■ Joined: Jun 29, 2006 From: The Bunker (you know where) | went to a yard sale off route 7 today and the guy had a box of old adapters and cables, you know the type. paid two bucks for a SCSI cable i dont need and was about to leave when i saw this little brass weight, painted green on one side, sitting on top of an old geiger counter manual. the paint is chipped but its that EXACT shade of green. the same green from Lyrik's measurement. i know, i know, "it's just a piece of metal eli" but the guy said he got the whole lot from a storage unit auction in Euclid last spring. EUCLID. i asked him which one and he said he couldnt remember. i bought it. its on my desk right now next to the timestamp log. i dont know what it means yet but i am NOT throwing it away. ATTACHMENT: yard_sale_green_brass.jpg  THE GOING QUIET IS REAL. I HAVE 6 PREDICTIONS. WE ARE IN DELAY 6. PREPARE NOW. - Eli |

you bought a painted fishing sinker off some guy's adapter pile and called it euclid because he said the word. at least twinpeaks is going to a real road with a real mailbox saturday. you brought home a desk ornament and a story.

Without a storage unit number or a guy who remembers which unit, the color match is a "vibe" not a data point

What is the serial number of the SCSI cable purchased with the weight. 5. What is the timestamp of the geiger counter manual that the weight was sitting on. 6.
