yes, well... one typically receives what one asks for.

I'll check back on the participation of this thread tomorrow.

Best of luck.

Mr. Gone

If such a thing is real (I have reason to believe it is) then I'm definitely interested in being part of it, should that be a possibility.

I'd join, but I'm not really sure what I could contribute. I clean a sparkling space toilet though!

Alright, who was sending me dreams last night?

I had a dream that some alien ships showed up in the sky. They kind of looked like wheels with spokes, white, and slowly spinning. The aliens were about 4' tall, skinny sort of like greys but not really. Their faces/heads looked more like a dragonfly's.

They were there to visit me and make me undergo some kind of tests (not medical tests) to become part of some secret organization or something. I had some time to run inside and grab some stuff like a camera.

I had no idea what the questions were, let alone what this organization was ... but as I went on with my dream doing other things without the aliens around I remembered wondering if I was being judged on my actions as part of this "test" to get some kind of scholarship into this secret and unknown organization.

Either way, it was a weird dream and I awoke exhausted from it. I feel like I didn't even sleep last night.

My "normal" dreams usually involve me in large public places with tons of people around. Not this time, so I could instantly tell this dream was different than my ordinary people-herding dream.

I have weird dreams like that sometimes to, almost like your character is being tested. Frankly, I don't even know how well I'm doing at it.

I would assume that anyone who is willing to dedicate themselves to the cause would be welcomed, and I'm pretty sure that you do have valuable qualities that can contribute to the greater good.

Here's my try at this. I first posted it in 2007:

I’d like to sign up for the New World Order in the Black Ops UFO division, which is why I posted here insted of the NWO site specifically. I’d rather not do the neo-fascist thing, but Capitalist Masonic Pig Dog would be fine with me. My grandfather was a Mason, and I know he would have encouraged me to join had he not died before I was born. I’m cool with it. I’ve heard so many good things about the NWO that I think it’s time for me to make my contribution to the greater good. Does anyone know how to submit an application? I mean, do the Men in Black monitor this board looking for recruits, or maybe the top secret black ops guys? I don’t know, of course, but I’m assuming they must, so I thought I’d just ask them right here since their phone number is, like, unlisted.

Look, I’m well qualified. I have a lifetime of experience in both conspiracies, UFOs, and bureaucracies. I’m computer literate and height/weight proportionate. I don’t smoke. I lean conservative and I’m a loyal American. I feel my education, experience, and loyalty qualify me as a commissioned officer. Considering that time is of the essence here (I’m no spring chicken), I suggest you start me off as, say, a Lieutenant Colonel. I’m not asking to set policy or anything, but I’d like to contribute at a meaningful level and I simply do not have the time to work up through the ranks. I’m a pretty good mission specialist. Just give me direction and I’ll get the job done whatever it is. Once you see my resume you’ll understand what I’m talking about. Eventually I’d like to join the General Staff. I know I have to prove myself first, but I wanted you to know I have goals. Oh, also! I’ve had a Secret Clearance before, so we don’t have to start from scratch.

So if you would just contact me off ATS (no U2Us, please), which should be easy enough for folks like you. I’m not really hiding, but I don’t want to deal with the cranks. I mean, I’ve got Caller ID on purpose. Other than that I’m easy to find. Contact me and I’ll point you to my online resume (if you haven’t found it already) and we can go from there. There’s a big open field directly in front of my house (see Google Earth to verify), so if you are restricted to, shall we say, more exotic means of travel, it should be no problem. You could always just drive up in a black sedan and knock on the door. That would be okay, too. Don’t worry about the dog. He has a big bark, but he’s really harmless. If he knows who you are he’ll hide under the bed anyway. That’s what he did last time the cops showed up. (It was no big deal. I’ll tell you all about it.)

Oh, by the way, I don’t require payment except for expenses incurred. I’ll volunteer. I wanted you to know how serious I am about this. And I’m a pretty good shot.

Thanks. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

P.S. I'm not kidding.

Well, if they keep doing it...it probably means there's still something there they're wanting to test/examine

I just wish they'd let me get a few nights of good rest in a row. I'm practically a narcoleptic these days.

a reply to: MystikMushroom

You and me both, I can't even believe you mentioned that, because a few nights of uninterrupted REM sleep is the one thing I need as well, I'm OK with character being tested, but wish the quote unquote testing would allow for me to maintain a reasonable sleep pattern so that i can function at my best when I'm awake.

Maybe I'll build on this thread and enter it into one of the short stories contests that they have around here
