I had a whole different blog planned out for today, but then
something amazing happened. The “Dingo Ate My Baby” story started trending
again. Apparently there was some break in the case. In summation for those of
you who don’t know, these people in Australia went camping with a baby
and all of a sudden their baby was missing and the parents claimed that a dingo
took their baby. It’s really sad. I don’t know if it actually happened that
way. The mom served jail time because the authorities didn’t believe her. And I
guess now they do? I don’t know; that’s not why I was excited today. That would
actually be a tragic thing to be excited for.
But the fact that this story was trending again took me on a
flash back to the 6th grade. We were assigned to read this, albeit kind
of creepy, book about several mysteries that were never really solved. We were also assigned groups to present, and my story just happened to be the Dingo one. I have been on a search all day to find this
book and see if there have been any “breakthroughs.” I’m not sure if you can
count the Dingo case today as a breakthrough, seeing as how I’m still not
completely aware of what the news is. The problem is that I don’t remember the
author, the book name, or the publishing company. I remember it had this
purplish hue to it. It might have been blue. And it was probably printed in
2003 or 2002. So we have a lot to work with here.
Since I can’t remember a thing about this book I found this
link instead: http://listverse.com/2007/07/20/top-10-unsolved-mysteries/
It’s good enough. Especially since the only two mysteries I remember
from the previous book were about the Dingo Baby and the Zodiac Killer. So now I’ve
been thinking about the Zodiac guy. That’s an even more gruesome and
interesting story, but I’ll spare you the details, go look it up. And if you
stumble across the 2004 movie with Jake Gyllenhaal, don’t watch it. It’s a
waste of time.
Okay, so I couldn’t resist saying something about the Zodiac
Killer. There was this serial killer back in the ‘60s who would see young adults,
sometimes couples on dates, and kill them. He would then send letters to the
local newspaper and they would be in a code. The code used the zodiac symbols
for its message. He said that if they didn’t print them, he would kill more
people, which he ended up doing anyway. This went on for awhile and they never
caught him. Or her. And it’s not like I enjoy that this guy killed people. I
just am intrigued into the psyche of this dude and how he was never caught. There’s
a lot more to it, but those are the details I will spare you.
So the point of this is to say that there are way too many
mysteries on this planet. And I need to have answers now. Or I’ll just wait.
You know, whatever. But I will never ever want the mystery of aliens to be
solved. It’s probably my biggest fear. Also because we wouldn’t have this guy:
This is an update!
I have noticed a trend with my blog posts. They are usually once a week and majority are posted on Tuesdays. This has never been planned, but now I think it's quite genius. So if you care or are an avid reader, which don't even try to deny, I know some of you are, then consider this a notice. I'll be writing posts mainly on Tuesdays. If you want to remember this without me bombarding your newsfeed, remember This is Tuesday as the title. Post Secret has Sundays. Jenna Marbles has Wednesdays. I am taking after all the great web entities.
This is mucho importante to me because even though I have a job, this blog does provide me with a measly income. So I need your help to get me out there more and whatnot. Thanks for your time!

What if the Zodiac Killer is still out there? And how do we know if he might strike again???
ReplyDeleteWell, there were copy cats. But I'm sure he/she won't, it's been several decades and I'm sure that person's dead.
