“At one library I have been to they have study cubicles where people can work. In one I found two books on the occolt and an encylopeida of inventions.”
Must have been a mechanomancer or a cliomancer 😉
Last year I was walking home one evening. It was raining. A guy passed me, wearing a black army jacket, black army trousers, Doc Martin boots – you know that kind of guy.
BUT: on his head he wore a transparent plastic bandana with white points. kind of thing my grandmother used to wear when it was raining.
Why would a totaly normal looking guy wear such an unstylish, uncool and ridiculous headdress? Well, must have been a magic-cap of some sort…
cheers,

P.S: maybe just because it was raining 😉
There’s a guy I see quite often on the sidewalk as I’m driving down Cantrell Rd. that’s always struck me as a little bizarre.
He’s just some old guy who stands out on the sidewalk in front of what I assume is his house (he’s always been in the same spot whenever I’ve seen him), standing at perfect attention and facing direct west.
The funny thing is, every time I’ve seen him it’s always around 9PM, give or take.
“The funny thing is, every time I’ve seen him it’s always around 9PM, give or take. ”
He probably knows, that when the world comes to an end it will sweep over the world, heading east, at 9 pm. He doesn’t want to miss out.

There’s a local in my town that has been here for years nick-named “F-U Bob” who has tourettes(sp?), or a disease very much like. He’s been known to stand on the streetcorner, or in the street, just flicking off everyone who goes by.
The rumormill says he was a local art professor at the University who freaked out on acid, etc… standard old crazy hippie story…
Having grown up in this town, I’ve ended up hearing numerous other rumors that are just as mundane.
Bob is an amazing artists, however, doing lots of relgious xerox art the last time I went to one of his shows. His other art is just as amazing.
He’s a nice guy, when you can ignore repeated “suck my dick” requests in the middle of conversation. Ok, well he IS a /tad/ standoffish… but wouldn’t you be, too?
Anyway, I think he’d be an excellent UA GMC if you could walk the fine line of not making fun of tourettes (at least not enough to take away from his seriousness).
Essentially, a crazy, old hippie guy who is a little off when you talk to him, but obviously intelligent. He has no knowledge of the statosphere or the occult underground. Nor would his psyche allow him to understand.
Whatever experience he had that crossed his wires gave him a glimpse of the cosmos. His active mind denies it, it comes out in his art. It could depict the statosphere at its purest and freak people out or give them statosphere skill. Or it could be symbollic of the what the Clergy is up to. Or just all about an Urbanomancer named Phil who lives in Cleveland.
