ITE Profiles #2
Good afternoon, Nation. And welcome to the second edition of ITE profiles.
For more information on what this is, check out:
Today is MY pick, so click below to see who it is:
My second victim (who is the first Speaker pick) is someone you ALL know for his attention to detail and amazing map making skillz with a "z."

The other day I sat down with this mustachioed gent and discussed what makes him tick.
SPEAKER: Okay, Jonah...
Ready for the hard questions?
JONAH: Engage...
SPEAKER: Last week I asked FOX why he chose his on-line moniker and he gave me a rather... interesting... explanation.
So, same question to you - Why JONAH?
JONAH: Uh... That's my name...
It's rather unique, so not many other people have it.
SPEAKER: Really?
That's it?
It's your NAME?
JONAH: Uh, yeah.
SPEAKER: Anyway you can SPICE it up some? You know... for the audience?
JONAH: Well - I used to have a few nicknames...
Smokey was my nickname in college, then it was Shadow.
Smokey 'cause I used to always have a cig lit. But I quit two years ago.
Shadow because I was always where everyone was, like a shadow.
But both of those are popular monikers... so I defaulted.
SPEAKER: Still, that's sexier than "It's my name."
Moving on....
People know you for "THE MAP." (And what a map it is!) What inspired you?
JONAH: I make maps for a living. I really like what I do, so I had to combine LOST and what I do into a super power of awesomeness times infinity.
SPEAKER: That's very interesting.
I'm sure you went to college for your job, but what was it that attracted you to LOST in the first place.
JONAH: As a padawan in all things cool...
Just kidding.
I'm always up for something new, interesting, and challenging. LOST delivered.
I had never heard of it until the first episode was on. I had never seen a season premiere like that.
I was captivated.
SPEAKER: We all were.
Is your deep love of the show, and specifically the propaganda spreading producers, the reason you HATE... Rachel Blake?
JONAH: I hate her???
Okay yeah... I hate her??
I won't be easily swayed. Rachel rules. There is a bit of Rachel in all of us, eh?
Everyone who has ever wanted to stand up for anything evil - be it Hanso, Nega-Speaker, or Thomas Weiner Mittelwerk - can share in her journey.
And for that we should all be thankful.
SPEAKER: Wait, I'm confused.
You gave a list of ALL her locations. All Hanso has to do to find her is to study your map, and use some "triangulation formula." So you obviously feel SOME sort of ill will towards her.
JONAH: You found me out. I work for Hanso.
This message will terminate in 5...
4...
3...
2...
1...
...Really, I'm on her trail like everyone else here.
I suppose they could check yer round-ups, eh?
SPEAKER: Touché, only I didn't draw a friggin' MAP!
Don't worry, you've just been NAILED by Speaker. It happens to the best of the best.
And that's all the time we have for today. I'd like to thank Jonah for joining me. I had a lot of fun.
And to all of you out there reading right now, you can see more of Jonah at his MySpace here. In last week's profile, there was a clue on Fox's page. There is NOT one on Jonah's... YET. The awesome person who's helping me with my scavenger hunt had a computer melt down, but as soon as I get the next item to hide, I'll let you know. (you can probably guess where the first clue will be.) Again, it's not a glyph but a distraction until the next glyph comes out.
Thanks again.
Until next time.






first?

Hey guys!! Please help ASAP. My cousin is down at the Park Ave Country Club and you really do have to register for the Fantasy Football event to get in. I said I'd do it for her online and she'll try to go back. Can someone direct me to the registration site? Thanks! She's having dinner in the area.

Zero, maybe he was waiting for the NY thing to begin?
Posted by: beachgrrl | August 23, 2006 at 02:39 PM
Pandora- www.espn.com/fantasyfootbal
should redirect you to the signup page.
Posted by: Zero | August 23, 2006 at 02:39 PM
I've got confirmation that the whereisalvar.com url is on the candy bars.
I just can't tell you how I know or that person might get fired.
Where's the NY people?
Posted by: | August 23, 2006 at 02:40 PM
What was the first clue on Fox's page?
Posted by: Maryjane | August 23, 2006 at 02:41 PM
Fun profile Speaker. Your friend has a lot of creativity.
Posted by: Monte | August 23, 2006 at 02:41 PM
Anon, you're full of crap. Stop spamming the blog or cough up the information.
Posted by: PreggoDome | August 23, 2006 at 02:41 PM
Any news of a username/password for the site being on the bars/at the giveaway yet? Because that site is definately in-game and definately important.
Posted by: Zero | August 23, 2006 at 02:41 PM
I was waiting for part two of my mini-scavenger hunt - but it's not here, so I did the post w/out it.
Posted by: Speaker | August 23, 2006 at 02:42 PM
Thanks zero... I think I got her...
What she told me over the phone just now...
She used to work in the area, so she knew where it was. It is a restaurant, and in order to get in, you have to be preregistered for the FF event. However, the promotional lady at the front door is unaware of Apollo or any Lost promotion, so I'm not sure what the deal is. It's a ritzy place, they seem to be letting some people who are really well dressed through the front door with the VIPers.

Not First! Not it!
Posted by: Triskele | August 23, 2006 at 02:43 PM
Preggo- I remember TLEC confirming earlier today that whereisalvar was on the candy bars. They didnt say how they knew either though..
Posted by: Zero | August 23, 2006 at 02:43 PM
I've got confirmation that the whereisalvar.com url is on the candy bars.
I just can't tell you how I know or that person might get fired.
The site is to go live very soon from what i no and there are some kind of pics of the lost island????
Posted by: | August 23, 2006 at 02:44 PM
I just got confirmation that...whereisalvar.com is
A website!
I can't tell you how I know that, or I'd have to kill you.
In case you didn't read this, I'll be posting it again in about 15 seconds.
