Casper-Peeves our friendly ghost got a hold of the post and ate it. See the post below for what was the original theory.

September 16, 2013 at 8:30 pm #210277kfchimeraParticipantSaclr….your post got the Casper-Peeves treatment….I am trying to read what it says through the code because I also want to have more backstory on Kurt/Owen.
I’m not sure we will get it though. I feel that the writers did a soft punt there, because all they wanted to do was say “here’s a real world boy who got run over by Regina’s brand of happy ending, and see, evil makes evil that makes more evil.”
I am hoping though that Kurt isn’t dead despite the bones, that he’s trapped in Henry’s Space Paranoids game…but that’s just me loving TRON and wanting a nod.

September 16, 2013 at 8:31 pm #210278sacrlcParticipantI apologize about my earlier post. It’s very ugly and I don’t know how that happened. Guess I can’t write this in word and paste it to the forum.

September 16, 2013 at 8:43 pm #210283RumplesGirlKeymasterYes, just a general note before I join in theorizing but Daniel thinks that writing in word and then pasting here is causing a lot of problems. 🙁
Interesting question. Really interesting. Mid 80s, I think I assumed a wild spirit was taken in (maybe) a drug accident. Hmmm. This I shall ponder.

You are wonderful. thanks for that.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"September 16, 2013 at 8:49 pm #210287sacrlcParticipantFrom my understanding of “free spirit” is someone who does not follow conventional norms, bohemian, the original hippies from the 60’s, etc. Think of the movie Auntie Mame.

That’s my basic understanding of it too, but didn’t they sometimes fall into the drug culture of the 70s? (I was born in 1987 so I’m going off what I’ve read/seen). But you’re right: Owen sorta makes it sound like something different has happened in this case.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"September 16, 2013 at 9:24 pm #210296kfchimeraParticipantI did not think there was a hint, but you never know! I thought it was just that Owen was saying that other kids did not know how to be normal around someone grieving. If you saw Super=8 it starts off with the idea the boy’s mother died in a freak factory accident or something. So there is this tension where his friends are not sure how to act, you cannot go back to normal but you don’t want to make too big a deal either to the point your friend is uncomfortable.

September 16, 2013 at 10:23 pm #210302sacrlcParticipantYes, the 70’s were known for drug usage, but the actual drug culture started way before that with the use of marijuana by the beatniks of the 50’s, morphing in the 60’s by the hippies with the rampant use of psychoactive mushrooms, psychedelics such as LSD and of course, marijuana. Then the 70’s rolled around and drug use became somewhat “glamorous” with the primary drugs of choice being LSD and cocaine.
was born in the early 50’s and witnessed everything from the 60’ forward. Fortunately, I was never interested in participating (which is probably why my brain didn’t turn into mush).
