Just a thought...about MI6

[lili]

The coloring in the photo that I posted seems more believable. If they touched up the color in the second photo, they very well could've changed it in other ways.
Just IMHO, of course. McCIII, thanks for saying that I didn't mess with the photo that I posted. In turn, I highly doubt that you messed with your photo.
What I'd really like to know is WHY someone would post a photo of John's body looking like it does in the photo that I posted ? The photo that you posted could've been released afterwards to invalidate the one in which it appears that his ear is missing. If his body was never meant to be seen in that condition, that would explain the photo that you posted appearing on the net !

Franz Ferdinand Frontman Held By Russian Police on Spy Charges

During his recent visit to Russia, reports have emerged suggesting Franz Ferdinand frontman Alex Kapranos was held by intelligence forces on suspicion of being an international spy.

Whilst trying to board a flight from Moscow to London following their recent Russian shows, reports suggest that the Franz Ferdinand singer was stopped on suspicion of being a former MI6 agent who stole confidential information on missiles.

The drama unfolded supposedly while his bandmates Bob Hardy, Nick McCarthy and Paul Thomson were being ushered onto their flight back to London. However, Kapranos was travelling under his mother’s maiden name Huntley giving him the same moniker as the former MI6 agent.

A mysterious unnamed source (possibly, himself, a double agent) speaking to the Star explained, “Alex protested his innocence, but the officials, initially, would not believe his story.

“Alex pointed out that the Huntley they were so concerned about was 42 – 13 years older than him – and they finally waved him on his way,” the XFM Web site reports.

Is he just unlucky or.....

He was stopped in New Zealand I believe for carrying some "illegal" fruit or something!

[il ras]

I posted that to show that also russian secret services don't exclude the possibility that a singer can be a spy; I thought it could be connected with the first post of this thread...

[plastic paul]

Yes I know ilras and i'm saying it's not the first time he's been stopped so it could be more than a coincidence!

Going back to a subject at the top of page one of this thread, this site again had an inexplicable swarm of visitors last night, the most ever at "47 users online." Why ...... Whahappen?

That's rather intriguing.

[lili]

Yes it is. I wonder if it has anything to do with Mr. Gray posting here ?

[il ras]

I was thinking the same...

This forum hardly ever breaks 10 unique users at any given time, that's not to say that more don't show up in the course of a day, they do.

However, I feel I must demystify that rather overstated number a bit, because when someone is on from America Online, this is what happens.

I'll try to explain this as best I can, but when a person connects with AOL, he first connects with an AOL proxy server, and that is the IP address that shows in the list of visitors. However...(this is key) when an AOL user loads a new web page, even within the same web site (such as NIR) he is assigned a new proxy server, with a corresponding new IP address. The address is only slightly different, so it's a machine within the same group, no doubt in the same building, so I can tell it's the same user.

Now, the reason why you see so many visitors listed is because it takes a few minutes for the forum software to see the "old" IP address as "dead". Someone loading 20 pages in rapid sucession could conceivably show up as 20 visitors, although probably a little less, as the forum software catches up.

Now if there is convergence of three, four or more AOL users at the same time, oh man! The British version of AOL does this as well, some here from Britain connect that way, as well as fair number from the U.S.

Anyway, I keep an eye on this stuff, that's part of my job as a moderator. The fact that AOL has this rather unique way of connecting to the 'net is the bane of many a moderator on other boards, because it's like playing whack a mole, trying to get rid of a troublemaker.

Franz Ferdinand's first big hit was "Take Me Out"

A song about assassination?

So if you're lonely
You know I'm here waiting for you
I'm just a cross-hair
I'm just a shot away from you
And if you leave here
You leave me broken, shattered alive
I'm just a cross-hair
I'm just a shot, then we can die
I-I-I
I know I won't be leaving here with you

(style change)

I say don't you know
You say you don't know
I say... take me out

I say, you don't show
Don't move, time is slow
I say... take me out

I say you don't know
You say you don't go
I say... take me out

If I move, this could die
If eyes move, this can die
I want you...to take me out

I know I won't be leaving here (with you)
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here (with you)
I know I won't be leaving here with you

I say don't you know
You say you don't know
I say... take me out

If I wait this could die
I wait this could die
I want you...to take me out

If I move, this could die
If eyes move, this can die
Come on... take me out

I know I won't be leaving here (with you)
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here (with you)
I know I won't be leaving here with you
