Stuck In Time?
01/2015

A few years back I used to be a CSR helping out at Cafe 43 on the Microsoft campus. Every day when I left, like around 3 or 4pm, this guy would get on the bus with us. I swear to god he was some sort of time traveler. He wore archaic clothes, and always had a long sweeping coat on, even when my fellow mortals and I would be sweating like crazy. He had a cane/umbrella thing he carried, and a briefcase or something, also super old styles. He was white, thin and wiry, with a beard and long flowing blonde/light brown hair. He never spoke, just got on the bus and went with us to downtown Seattle on the 545. I saw him all the time, even got a picture. and he was very mysterious. I saw him maybe a year after that job ended, and he was walking in downtown Seattle with a super modern woman, holding hands and smiling, still with the cane and old outfit. I think he got stuck here in this time or something, but ended up finding true love in our present and went with it.

What Is A Liminal Map?

Spooky things happen every day all around us! Instead of brushing these peculiar moments and bizarre encounters off as chance, or mere coincidence, what if we talked about them, mapped them, and tried to decode the message?

Is there a specific place where you've seen fairies, ghosts, bigfoot, time travelers, extraterrestrials, ultraterrestrials, crow conferences, sentient lawn computers, lanyard'd ogres, broccoli wizards, etc.? Does your town have an urban legend you'd love to get to the bottom of?
