into thin air, mysterious disapperances

dear readers

there is a tv show on CBS called without a trace. it tells the story of the cases a misiing persons bureau runs into every week. their are people who have dissappear snd have never been seen since. The late charles fort was fond of the stories like this. famous people have disappear, jimmy hoffa, ameila earhart, ambrose bierce among others. a popular story was of the farmer that disappear crossing his field and vanshed in the middle of the field into thin air. one of the oddest stories was the dissapperance at the eilens more lighthouse. the lighthouse was builded in 1899 on a island of eileen more. the island was supposely ihabited by fairies. in 1900 a crew of three men were stationed. things went well unti dec 12 when the light went out but the island couldn't be reached becuase bad weather. they found that the lighthouse was deserted when they reached it on the 26th. legend has it they found a dinner of mutton and half-eaten potatoes , and two sets of boots and coat were missing.. what had happened, theories abounded, angry fairies, aliens, sea monsters, but the most creditable theorie was they got swept by a freak wave doing repaires. but ones doesn't know

mary celeste

one of the most famous dissapperance was the mary celestie was a sailing ship thta was bounded to new york from glaitor. in an strange twist, the captain of the dei gratia. the ship that found the mary celestie had dinner with the captain of the doomed vessel in new york several months later. the ship was found in perfect condition expect for a missing life boat and a piece of the front railing was gone. it is a myth that they found a half eaten meal in the gallery but the captain's son toys were still in his quarters. the gallery was a mess as the stove was turned over . and everything was wet and damp. curiously they had lefted their pipes and oilskins. oil skins are raincoats by the way. what had happened. the best theory I have heard was they were transporitng ethyl alcohol. it is a voltile mixture and prone to fire. the crew not knowing this abandoed ship and were sweepted by a wave and drowned. or amutiny occured and they killed the captain left the ship and were sweepted overboard and we may never know. but it remains one of the mystires of the sea

regions of the world are notroious for dissappearnce like the "bermuda triangle" hte devil's triamngle and surprisly the great lakes region. the reasons put forth like ufo's alien, ancient curses, or holes in time and space. the most famous was the flight 19 disspparance in which a whole squad of navy TBM avengers disappered! the great lakes can be explained becuase the sea has lots of momentium but because of wide spaces, the energy is spreaded out while the great lakes is squeezed into a small spaces and thusly accountly for the high waves. i can vouched for this in personal exprience. i got a pair of shoes were wet becuase of lake erie.

finally the last stories is the strangest, it was a airpalne that was a carter flight. it was intersing because a member of the royal family of the united arab emiries was board their. it disapper in mid flight over the sahara. a two week search was used but no luck and a 3 million dollar self fiancialed search by the royal family turned up no results. the story gets stranger. they founded the air in the sid eof a mountian or a ravine i think. no one was in it. it didn't help that nomads had looted it. the creepy part was there was no bodies! only some small bones the size of a finger that powered when touched. what had happen to the planes and where were the bodies. wild animals should have lefted some trace .

see you later, guys and gals and remeber keep your eyes and ears open becuase oyu never know what you will see and heard.

peace, A.S
