Since last night resulted in the exposure of one of my personal secrets, I might as well go all out and enlist all of you Café members in the greatest quest of all--my own personal holy grail, so to speak.
I want to find the mummy of John Wilkes Booth. I am serious in thinking that this is a realistic project. Some private collector somewhere has John Wilkes Booth in a vault. And with sufficient publicity and social unrest that private collector might just cave in to the pressure and show us the mummy. (And just between us here on the Café, I think there is about a fifty/fifty chance that the collector's name is Doug Higley.) So does anyone here have any information about the mummy? Any leads, hints, etc? And if you think you can just google for five minutes and find some information I haven't read, you can forget about it. I've spent HUNDREDS of hours reading everything there is on the internet about this mummy. I want personal information, if you have any. But mostly, I want to enlist you in my quest. Go look in your attic, right now. Go look in your neighbor's attic. Write your congressman. Get active. Do something right and good and wholesome for America and the world. This is important. Think about it: this man murdered the greatest president in the history of the United States, and his mummified corpse is on display in someone's private little art collection along side some Ming dynasty vases and a tapestry. It's just plain wrong. And if we could find the mummy, scientists could prove with a few simple tests that the history books are also all wrong, and that we are teaching our children fairy tales about the Lincoln assassination. Your children's minds are at stake. The truth is at stake. The most famous American mummy of all time is at stake. This is the mother of all mummies (if you leave out the Egyptian ones and The THING just off of Interstate 10 somewhere in Arizona). So help me find that mummy. I love you all. Jeff |

Mission accomplished?
Are you serious, Doug? I bet you regret the millions of hours of research and wish you had asked Doug at the start. George |

I have no clue where it is. George, what did you read above?
Well, I have a clue actually but I'm still not a collector, not snce 1994.

Well, I would have asked Doug, but I was still keeping my other life completely separate from my Café life. No magic on my blog, no mummy at the Café.
I have long thought that if anyone had a clue, it might be Doug. Of course, he himself is not a collector. Or so he says. On the other hand, whoever might have it has to have some serious money. If Brett is right, Copperfield kind of money. |

Sounds like the perfect myth to me. While you're at it, look up Jim Morrison the next time you visit Munich.
POOF!

They did a "Freakazoid" episode once that had a quick take at a science fiction convention. Freakazoid was describing the different booths that were there. The first two were innocous (sp) and I can't really remember them but it went something like; "The Star Wars booth, the Battlestar Galactica booth, the John Wilks Booth" and there was John Wilks Booth in a plain cubical saying to everyone that passed; "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm really sorry!"

When I was a kid growing up in the Land of Lincoln, there was something in the basement we used as a table and benches. My parents used to call it, "The Booth". Do ya think???...............

As in posting thousands of posts in the Right or Wrong forum when my posts don't even count toward Eternal Order status? As in recognizing that Straussians are everywhere and might have infiltrated the Café, like they did in Doug's thread about sometimes a debate is a real debate? Darn right, I'm obsessed! Or were you talking to someone else, like Josh? Back to the mummy--for those who clicked the link, please note: the mummy (which is undoubtedly real) looks more like John Wilkes Booth than any of the others. If that's not proof, maybe we should ask someone from the Claremont Institute. And let's forget about the whereabouts for a moment: Brett, Doug, others who might have heard things over the years, DO YOU THINK THE MUMMY IS JOHN WILKES BOOTH OR NOT? Jeff |

Geeze! Don't go all 'German' on us! I know a collector who is rather UNDER the table about what (and who) he collects...he might know if anyBODY does.
