Thanks, T. Gorry!
We took your advice and bent the envelope a lot...mostly because the stamp told us not to. (Reverse psychology of the bubble wrap kind?) Then, we opened it.
If this "Gorry" person is still alive (Angel says it's a totally creeptacular name, by the way), I hope he or she or it isn't offended that Pruitt never got this package. (Whoops.)
There was a credit card inside. Us bird kids are seriously low on cash, so I wonder if it still works. We're gonna have Nudge and Angel work their respective magic on this one. We'll keep you posted...from jail or otherwise.
There was also this:
We've seen this before. Not impressed, merely more weirded out. But this is new for sure:
I didn't even know people still MADE these tapes anymore. (Hello! DVDs!) But when I looked at the date and then saw Jeb's name on there, I started getting a headache. Felt dizzy. Wanted to hurl my guts out. ...The exact same thing my chip does to me, only this was because of him.
Since this laptop only plays DVDs, we need to find one of those antiquated VHS player...thingies. Or, perhaps Ig can fashion one from a dog collar, a pair of combat boots, and a lunch box.

Woah...that is totally creeptacular! ew, Jeb? What the heck man? I hope you can find a VHS thing! Keep us posted on it please. These freaky scientists are starting to really make me wierded out.
VHS players aren’t that antique.
[[You’re only saying that because you own one, Joat.]]
Yeah, you’re right. At any rate, I wonder if there is some way to convert that tape into digital data and have it posted up here.
[[Can’t you do that?]]
I’m a mad scientist, yes, but I have neither the equipment nor expertise in that area. Plus, I don’t have a copy of the tape. Anyway, it sounds like Gorry is a real creeptacular.
[[Again, creeptacular is an adjective, not a noun.]]
Says you.
i hope u guys figure it out. luv ya'll i wish i could help.
Oh my gosh! I wonder whats on the tape! It says avian/human, so maybe its about the experiments?? I hope you all find a VHS player soon! Let us all know ASAP what's up!
is the paper all bent up now cause u bent it? anyway if you can get some cash u can buy a vhs player that hooks up to your laptop. then u can see wats on the tape.
Gah? They make things like that?
[[Guess you’re not as updated on tech as you thought.]]
At any rate, that could mean we get to see what’s on that tape, after all. If it hooks up to the laptop, then the laptop will be able to convert it to digital data.
whoa! thats good, not like some other things you get... avian/human... hmm... the experiment? that is creeptacular...
Trust the Igster! He can make anything and everything work!
Ooer, I'll lend you the combat boots! Miss Veronica would mucherly love some digital-type uploading formatting something or other for us to see on the blog or else wheres... good lucks!

'95 was twelve years ago. i dont think they even had DVD back then. it mite of ben cause i was poor, but i dont remember DVDs in blockbuster til 2000ish
C ya! O.o
PS GO FLOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PPS i dont think i can wait til the 3rd book cums out!!!
PPPS Jeb's corpse should burn in H-E-double hockey sticks fer all eternity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PPPPS srry if that was weird.
Well max I don't know what to tell you. But you can still buy VHS palyers. I saw one at the store yesterday.
The Bookworm
^_^ bye!
Creeptacular...
(ya, nudge, u should come out with your own book, or dictionary)once u c this video, try 2 hook us up!!!
Oh, and i luv u all!!!
O.o
definatly creeptacular. and i agree w/ joat, vhs players aren't SO antique. i mean when did dvd's even come in? like 1999 or sumthin.
anywho, jeb is evil. and i don't get it. what is so significant about that date?
always
Disheartened
Please post the VHS somehow! We need to see it!
waaaaaayyy creeptacular
ok a couple of questions...
first: how did u get he laptop?!?
cuz im looking for a cheap one
( i mean REALLY cheap)
second: how did u get the package? like as soon as i read the entry i just realized that (HELLO!) it wasn't addressed to you!
third: how come only gasman's paper thing was in there? and not anyone elses? and how did they know his name?
fourth: what kinda of name is GORRY??
you should watch the tape
i wonder why they were sending it to the PRINCIPAL???
ok heres what i think...
so jeb was really working for itex before but then the soup guy came along and was like: HEY WANNA GO MIX W/ SOME BIRD AND PEOPLE GENES??? and then jeb was like: SOUNDS LIKE FUN!! and then they built The School and got some friends to help built some mutant people and then you guys escaped and they set up this WHOLE thing where they LURED you guys into the city and then the INSTITUTE and then you guys went and had to find your parents and so you went to washington dc and the sent erasers to hurt fang and all that stuff and made anne take you in so she would put you guys at that school and then you would escape and go find the itex place.
im telling ya that whole thing was a PLAN!
i think that all the people in the school were erasers and the pruitt guy is a mad scientist. and then school was formally a place for crazy people and they used the people who were residents there for teachers.
im telling you -- thats their plan
yea i no i sound crazy...
toodles!!!
Oh, crud. um. You know they sell the VHS things at like Circuit City, right? Put that credit card to use, Bird-kids!
Creepy. There is no one in the flock that matches the date. Nudge comes close, but she is the 4th oldest. Mabye there's another experiment? Let's hope not... Why do those scientists have to be sooo darn freaky???
Wow...that is really creeptacular. I wonder what is on the tape.
...Wow...that is weird.Hiyas. Hope you find the VHS thing!!! But you know, they sell them in elecronic stores, maybe there you might find what you need. Good Luck!!!!!!
- Bloody Rose. ^_~
Who is that experiment 10086? Creeptacular...
You can adapt the DVD player with some electronics from a electronics store I think . Please keep us posted . THE SCINTIST ARE IDIOTS.
Why don't you guys fly out to California and you can borrow my VHS player! Great idea, right?
COME TO MY HOUSE!! We have LOTS of those!!! except you'd have to fly all the way xcountry again. *tear tear*
*sigh* try frys electronics Good luck ^^
DUDE
YOU HAVE TO TELL US WHAT THE TAPE SAYS!!! OR SHOWS :/
and videos arent THAT ancient we still have like a bajillion at our house plus a bajillion more tape players!!
STOP BY!!
~catch my drift
I think the video is about Nudge because it was taped in 1995, and Nudge was born in 1995. Think about it.
-Green.
I have VHS.
-The Dork
I'm sure he can do it =]
He is Iggy, after all.
i think that there devices that you can use to view VHSs on a computer and save them on computers. my dad was going to get one but it was to much money. or you could try to get a VCR that uses video and audio cables and a device that takes the signal from those cables and put it into something that your computer can use.here is a Engadget article about one that should be comparable with Windows Vista. well anyway hope you can post that video to the blog.
I would like to see a a caset thing like that! That would be cool!!! figure it out! Take this advice, get guns and use them!!! Thats all. U GUYS ROCK!!! ;D :D
good luck finding a VHS. i would lend you mine but you knoww! keep us posted on what happens!
wow
awesome! i have a vhs if you'd like to borrow it, except you're in florida and im in the chicago burbs. that could present a problem.
Yeah, that's just a /little/ creepy right there. and what's with the tape? what do you think is on it? It's kinda confusing me a little too much for a Tuesday morning just so you all know. And for anyone out there who reads all of the comments left by other pepole and are fans of Iggy, join the IggyObsessors Clan in the general discusion thing for maximum ride in the forum!!!! It's awesome and you get coolish names!!!!
♥Flying solo♥
VHS Players where only decomitioned last year they arn't Antiques. The idiotic scientists are realy creeping me out. KEEP US INFORMED
I agree with flying solo tis is way to confusing for a tuesday morning.
Its snowing out here in Oregon. There's like 3 inchs of snow. We are having a snow-day! that is so cool!!!!
^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^
As you can tell I am super HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TOTALY AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Bookworm
^_^ Bye!
PS Today is january 16,2007.
PPS I'm going to play in the snow now. HEHEHEHE!
SNOW BALL FIGHT!
Watch it be a friggen' mind controler thingy. What fun that will that be? Well good luck finding a VHS anywhere and just so you know it's been sleeting ice for two days so don't freeze. Goodluck
~Love_of_Flying
Hmm, well, you can tell that's it's old if it's been recorded on a vid, though video players aren't old, I have one. But also a DVD, so...anyway, I say watch it, but I have a bad feeling that it could have one of you lot on it, or another mutant-person-kid-person being taken or something. I have a really bad foreboding about that vid. I mean, c'mon, Jeb's name was on it, so it can't be good.
Be careful when you watch it. And don't have nightmares.
Ask Ig if he can make a tv out of shoelaces, sticky tape, straws and coloured paper, like on Blue Peter! It would be sooo wicked coolio, man!
Back to the problem in hand. Be careful, again, and if the credit card works, spend it all, but after get rid of it. Don't want them to trace you, do we?
Hugs and kisses,
Lizzie
Playing in the snow was so fun.But anyway this is really buggin' me. When are you going to let us know whats on the VHS? cause i'm sure we all want to know whats on it.

Hey max!

-angel
We still have a VHS player here...but it doesn't work that well. But I have faith in Iggy and i think he could probably whip something up...
Fang's Twin
PS didn't know you had a twin now did you?
DON'T USE THE CREDIT CARD!!!!! They can track down where the credit card was used. and by they, I mean the freakin eraser maniacs. please keep us posted, I know it might be hard, but just think how hard it is to do the same thing every day, surrounded by people exactly like you. Belive me, you would hate a day in my shoes.
-chicagogirl
p.s. just think about what I said
Please post more!
Jeb + court = posibly good
Come down to visit me I'll take you to our librairy, the public can access cubicles with TV/VCRs you just go up to the desk and ask for 6 pairs of headphones so that you don't disturb everyone else.
(and with THAT tape I'm sure you would...) and you can also visit our church I am a christian and we are happy to accept any new members.
LUCK2YA,
Tsubasa
PS.try this mantra,
"If you really want to be happy no one can stop you."
yeah, i could see this getting veery interesting... so what was on the video? or hasn't ig come up with his glue-and-sticky-tape VCR yet???
oh, and one more thing...have you guys blown the credit limit on the card yet? :)
i look forward to the next installment!
awww i was hoping that the envelope would explode or do something funky!! -_- shame really, but oh well!! oh oh oh i have one of those vid player thingys...somewhere so if you wanna play it come find me!!! i dare you...
gotta go...keep postin more stuff!!
Well. I saw some people said don't use the credit card because they can track it. Well actually I only saw one that said that. Um. Anyway, can't the chip do that anyway? Max...Thats rough about the chip. Anyway... Yeah. Next time you run into Jeb, Spare us the dramtic conversations and punch his face in! Think about it, no Jeb, your problems wont go away neccesarilly but I mean some of them will and it will feel SO good wont it?
By the way..What would happen, if say, a mutant bird-kid mated with a mutant wolf-kid? Hypothetically, of course....
this is so cool!!!!!!! finaly wintr is here(on Cape Cod)!!! its not good that our pipes burst, but who carez?!! its gonna snow!!(i hope) i luv wintr, u cant drown in it cause no 1s dum enuf 2 go in the watr!!!

PPPS evil cat...
BEWARE!
(=*~~*=)
PPPPS does that look like a cat?! YES, NO, MAYB SO?
Wait Jeb is a experiment i didn't know that.So is that date the year he was born or something?You NEED to watch that and then show it to us.Ok bye everyone.
Your Friend
Blu
First of all, go ig,u rock
well now, if i were you i wouldn't let the others see it once that you find a vhs, first watch it with fang, and besides if it's a horror movie you know how us girls get, holding on to the closest things with all your might it'll give you excuse to hold fang
take care and blog more
*rebmarks*
take care and blog more
Credit cards sound risky, yes, but there are few alternatives. Plus, Max working at, oh, a McDonalds to get money is a somewhat… peculiar prospect.
“Excuse me, there seems to be a feather in my burger.”
okay i'm going to say this carefully
I don't think Jeb is not that bad he might actually be helping you more than you think, after all he has been like a father to you and he left his real son, don't hate me but thats what i think
P.S I'm not evil i just think jeb might be so secrective he is useful
*rebmarks*
i think that the viedo is a home viedo of you and jeb teaching you how to walk and fly...ect.
or it could be a very scary thing that youll just want to burn up
either way think twice before watching it
*rebmarks*

PPS ...MANIAC ON THE LOOSE...
Hey, Max?
Just check out a garage sale. Sometimes they sell "antiques". Like, maybe a VHS?
Plus, it'd be super cheap. Probably.
We sold our VHS last year, in... uh... March, I think. Along with our ten thousand (not really) video tapes.
Who the heck is this T. Gorry person? Forgive me if I sound like an idiot, but I don't remember any T. Gorry's in the book or on the blog. And I must've read the book about five times. So, If anyone's got an answer to this T. Gorry thing, please TELL ME.
-DarkHawk09
And, "Alan", they had a bank card, like for an ATM. (Not a credit card.) Those things have gotta run out of money at one point or another. Unless The School's been fillin' it up with cash for Max. I wouldn't put it past em'.
(Again)
-DarkHawk09
Yeah, it's me again,
I agree with "Someone_Weird". About the H-E-double hockey sticks thing, I mean.
-DarkHawk09
max, if you buy a vcr to watch the vhs tape, maybe you can stay in a hotel and plug it into the tv in the hotel room.
let us know what's on it as soon as you're able to veiw it.
can't wait till your next book comes out
i like aliens...

Tell the flock I said hi!
Be safe,
~Candace
I don't know if you can make a VHS out of a dog collar , rubber boots, and a lunch box.But then again, i haven't doubted you guys before :P
Good luck!
~Tiff
P.S. i know it says annonymous by the thingy i clicked... but hey, gotta trust people right?Oh ya, and I like Nudge's new word Creeptacular :P... i use that word alot now.
"T. Gorry" is the wacko who sent this bizarre tape to Mr. Pruitt, our old Principal.
That's creeptacular (or however the heck you spell it) Jeb is proably the reason everything else happened so what else is new? So I'm asking why I'm so creeped out. Well good luck in your quest to save the world. And if you already did I'm sorry I haven' read the old blog in for ever. I'm sorry if I'm babbling on. Just so much to talk about. Because I haven't read the blog since like December 21,2006. I'll talk some more on one of Fang's or Igg's.
P.S. Tell the flock I said Hi.
Wow that is creepy. I'm confident that Iggy will make something cool. like how he made thougs bombs out of stuff lying around the house in the 1st book.or was that in When the Wind Blows or By the Lake House those are other max books only a little more micher
Creepy.But i'm sure Iggy will come up with something. Like he did in "When the Wind Blows" and "By the Lake House" those are other Maximum Ride books but they changed Fangs name to Oz.
WHAT WAS THE VIDEO ALL ABOUT? IT DIDENT MAKE SENCE. WAS IT LIKE SAPOSTO BE FROM THE DAY THE FLOCK ESCAPED? [SORRY ABOUT THE SPELLING]
nEAT I WONDER whats on it?
i didnt know jeb was an experiment?!
man i can't even think of what could be on that tape. after everything that you guys have been through i would think that we would have a good idea as to whats on it but the pieces together i believe that it may have something to do with a avain human experiments. but im not sure. let me kno when you figure it out
wow!! that is something you dont see everyday . but that paper its like a referal form or a to do list in a secret way .annd max the video i just cant help you with that bye guys see you later love you max and all the gang bye- mk13
Why must you tanut me so? i want to know what happens!!!!!!!! is the world destroyed or does the flock save us all from total doom? i want answers NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
yeah, really. those whitecoats are so not creeptacular. the creepy part is right, but not the other end of the word. they might be to themselves, but they only care about themselves anyways. its no big to them. besides, to them, all they did was put 6 not normal kids with wings lives in danger. no biggy, right. sure. well, keep us posted.
bum bum BUMMMMM!
video players arent that old! i mean i have one geeze. but that is so wierd. i hope you find "one of those antiquated VHS player...thingies"! i cant wait to see whats on the tape!
that is so FREAKY!! and that "wing in the fire" song is By Rodney Adkins
-chicagogirl
Max, go to a hotel that has a VHS player (most don't now) Get in there and watch this video. Take notes if you must. When I find something of good help to getting what I am looking for, I examine in and study it......like some books I've read and ...this blog.
