Okay Freaky Friday folks buckle your seat belts we are really going down a few rabbit holes on the internet. You know when the primary source for the tale is Reddit that it’s going to get strange. For those who don’t know what Reddit is… well it’s a social internet site where people discuss news, stories, topic, and things they find. I’m not a member but am a reader on occasion. It was there that this story started. From there it goes into porn sites that aren’t just porn sites, number stations on the internet, possible mercenaries, one hell of a wake party, possible assassination involvement, Mossad involvement, fake names, fake passports, Interpol, half hearted international man/woman hunt, a grouchy old man that befriends vets,… what have I left out… oh an inheritance and a raggedy old cat. Intrigued? I’ll try to explain.

What do you get if you get to the very end and solve all the puzzles? No one has said. Who is putting out these complicated puzzles? No one is telling. This is the tale of Cicada 3301 something I’ve been watching from the start…

In some circles on the internet the name John Titor is synonymous with Time Traveler. The tale starts as far back of 1998 from a man that claimed to be on his way to or from 1975 returning to his home time of 2036. He said his name was John Titor. Just why did he stop here for a few years 1998 – 2001? What did 2036 want from 1975? Why did he stop in those years? Wasn’t he afraid of changing the time line? Was it real or a hoax? If it’s a hoax who did it? Why? If not why did he tell his tale on radio and internet? I’ll try to do justice to a convoluted tale of time travel, cigars, lawyers, and Florida. Yes this is a tale that could start with the infamous ‘A Florida man…’ (more…)
