Rants from 2000:
12/29/00
It's all in my notes,
every last word you need. I'm way over this...way, way over this. I'd type more
but my mind is racing and I can't keep it still. Call it a day and put it to
bed.
12/27/00
I've become obsessed
with dreams lately. Or maybe they've become obsessed with me. No matter when or
where I fall asleep, I'm harassed by visions from my fevered frontal lobe.
12/22/00
Still having those
weird dreams like I wrote about in my last entry. (And thanks to everyone who
e-mailed me about what they mean) I'm usually a sound sleeper but these night
visions have been waking me up lately. Maybe it has something to do with my
birthday coming up or something. I dunno, maybe it's just from eating too many
taco's before I go to bed.
12/20/00
I had this strange dream
last night. In my dream I find myself in some huge underground amusement park.
There's all kinds of rides and food stands stretching out before me in this
huge cave system but somehow I know there's something wrong with it.
12/15/00
I'm just sitting here
being real diligent, trying to act all mature and stuff. I'm answering e-mails
like a good webmaster should. It's amazing how many people like to send me
stuff in the mail.
12/08/00
Just got back from
another road trip to the buckle of the bible belt (that's Alabama in case you
were wondering) and it's nice to be back at home with nothing to worry about
except where my next double espresso is coming from.
12/06/00
Hi guys, Lan here,
Derek decided Monday to go up to Alabama to investigate a story. He's not back
yet but has assured me that he will show up sometime before the end of the
week.
12/01/00
Hey, Party at ground
zero! You guys all doing ok? I'm fine but things do seem a little slow around
here. Must just be a normal paranormal winter slow down (say that 3 times
fast). I suspect that things will pick up after the first of the January.
11/28/00
I thought I would
cheer you northerners up by offering some footage of me out enjoying the sweet
Florida sunshine. For the past coupla days the weather here has been just
perfect. It makes you forget that in the summer you have to peel your shirt off
from the humidity.
11/22/00
I sit here in the
underground Freakylinks bunker, while the rest of Florida explodes into
conflict above me. Above my head I can hear the rattle of small arms fire
pinging off voting machines, I can smell the odor of burning ballots wafting
down into my shelter.
11/17/00
I tell ya it's been a
banner week for conspiracies over here at Freakylinks. Strange thoughts and
ideas keep whirling in here faster than you can crash a UFO in Roswell. Let's
see if I can sort 'em all out for ya.
11/15/00
Got an interesting
conundrum that I'm hoping you can help me figure out. A coupla days ago I
received this e-mail and yes, it was from a hotmail account.
11/10/00
Contrary to what a
lot of e-mailers think, I had nothing to do with the current election mumbo
jumbo going on in this great state. So all you guys should quit e-mailing me
and saying that I'm somehow connected.
11/08/00
Other people get
chain letters for phony pyramid schemes, I get pictures of secret super
weapons. This little image came my way with a rather peculiar note attached.
I'll leave it up to you to decide it's worth.
11/03/00
I'm back from a visit
to Spano Texas, a little dusty, a little bruised up, but mostly OK. No one ever
said digging into the paranormal was an easy gig and this one was a little more
trouble than it's worth.
11/01/00
When last we heard
from the little weasel Stu Carmichael he was busy getting things off the top
shelf for our favorite little Oompa Lompa, Gunter Mahlberg. These days it looks
like he's branching out into plagiarism by shamelessly ripping off my website.
10/27/00
I ain't got no
scruples when it comes to chasing down the truth. I got the snake drive. I am
50 feet tall. When I walk the woods tremble, the dark gods quiver in fear.
10/25/00
Georgia Paranormal
Sing Along... what more do you need to know???
10/20/00
I ain't got no

50 feet tall. When I walk the woods tremble, the dark gods quiver in fear.
10/18/00
A really good source
threw me a video of something strange going on in the New York sewers. I don't
wanna give too much away in case it all turns out to be nothing but let's just
say that the urban legend you've heard about may have a kernel of truth to it.
10/13/00
It's the middle of
the night and I'm too worked up to sleep and I'm too tired to sort it all out
so I thought I would sit and talk to you guys.

10/06/00
Talking about Adam
always makes me miss him and it's hard to be the stupid and goofy guy when I keep
thinking about him. He'd laugh his butt off if he saw me like this. I was never
the one to shed a tear or reminisce about old times.
10/04/00
Me and Jason are
currently holed up in a Motel 6 in Pigeon Forge Tennessee. Dolly Parton's theme
park is just down the road but it wasn't those twin peaks that brought up us
here. Instead we're just back from another run in with that vertically
challenged, paranormally obsessed all around fun guy, Gunter Mahlberg.
09/29/00
Well I faced up to my
fears and gave up my secrets of Seattle. I still don't like talking about it.
(Trust me, it wasn't my finest hour.) But I do feel better about letting it
out. I never was one good at keeping a secret.
09/25/00
Got a big new story
outta of the deepest, depths of Africa with all kinds of exciting footage for
you to give the once over.
09/20/00
Well I'm busier than
a sea serpent at a boat show what with all this moving things from Orlando to
my ultra deluxe, super-swank, home on the beach.
09/15/00
This week's story is
one that Jason and I researched while out there in the city of angels...and
just goes to show what madness is to be expected when I meet people who post on
the discussion boards.
09/13/00
Busy days here at
Freak Central.... I thought I'd do a few house cleaning duties here before the
next update comes out on Friday. I'm just sitting here enjoying take out from
my favorite high quality restaurant.
09/11/00
I'm thankful for the
favor you've done me. You made me realize I was hiding from my true nature. If
I want to run a website that explores the paranormal then I should be man
enough to let the world know who I am. From now on you won't see me hiding
behind HTML code.
09/05/00
How could I have
missed hearing about Gunter Mahlberg? Oh sure I had his link on my enemy page
for quite some time but I just assumed (what's that old saying about assuming?)
that he was a nobody. Just a freak with a website and a want list of the
strange.
08/29/00
Yeah, that's right,
I've hit the big time, I'm in a tabloid! Now this article, coupled with that
new and mysterious thunderbird photo I received makes me wonder if 2000 is
gonna be the year of the Thunderbird.
08/28/00
Newsflash, Someone
sent me this pic from a hotmail account (but of course) What do you think?
08/25/00
Breaking news off the
paranormal presses, boys and girls. Pretty exciting stuff ifin you ask me.
They're bringing "In Search Of" back to TV. (And if you're too young
to remember this show then you should go ask your dad about it)
08/24/00
I'm all for road
trips but when you ain't seen home in nearly a month you get mighty lonesome
for all the petty little things that make up your life.
Rants from 2001:
01/19/01
Oh yeah I'm a little
whirlwind of cleanliness and I'm straightening up left and right (not
personally, I'm talking about putting objects back where they belong.) I even
got enough gumption in me to attend to a little carpentry.
01/17/01
Got a cool present in
the mail from a Freaky reader named Sam from up there in New Orleans. Sam said
he's a big fan of the website and urges me to come back up to the Big Easy so
he can show me around.
01/12/01
... certain events
over the past few days have made me look into the deeper aspects of life
transference and the power to make the inanimate, animate.
01/05/01
Looking back at my
notes last week it seems that maybe my subconscious mind was trying to tell me
something I didn't want to know. The visions I had in my sleep all relate in
some way to the strange goings on I encountered in Casadaga.
01/03/01
The Dreams are
tapering off.... I don't know if it had something to do with finding that book
at Adam's. Maybe it was the fact that I had all this built up anxiety over my
birthday on the first.
(I swear I’m not stealing anything, I’m just
keeping it safe till Fox puts it back)
I DO NOT, NOR DO I CLAIM TO OWN FREAKY LINKS
OR ANY THING RELATED TO IT!
