You will think this is crazy–but you are probably being targeted because you think outside the box… thus much harder to control.

The messages are normally more subtle, though the longer you ignore them, the angrier they get… and the more “magical” the messages become.

Crazy or no, you decide.

Glad you got my note.

Hope you had a great trip – from your photos of Burma it looks like you did. Be well!

It’s probably ‘Engrish’

Leif and Lift do sounds alike.

Gosh and the only ad I got is for bookingwiz.com.
I guess that follows theme in a way.
Maybe you should print some stickers to leave as a
marker of your travels – but I think I would select
another location to mark!

Leif!
I got the insanity of it, my dear. True, your name is unique, beautifully so. I am going to make sure that my friend Leif Utne gets a load of this post as well. (pun intended – you did actually use that toilet, right? or was it deemed too sacred?)

What I was looking forward to was the “after” picture (not the “load”) – I was certain you were going to scribble some graffiti below your sticker. Next time.

Now you’ve done it. The google adbot you’ve now sucked into this page – #1 “Public Urination!” #2 “Bangkok Flight?” #3 “Thailand Cheap Flights” #4 “Toilet Urinals” and finally, #5 “Portable Event Bathrooms”

There is indeed intelligence in chaos and somedays, in, umm, strange places in your case – it chooses to reveal itself. After all, what are the odds?

That’s weird. Really weird. My name being mary, I don’t freak out at all when I see it all over the place. It happens alot more at christmas than anything else. Christmas and at church and stuff. Everyone says “Oh, her name is the same name as jesus’ mom!” And I smile and say “yeah, isn’t that nice?” While trying not to make some sarcastic remark.

But yeah, maybe Leif means something else in a different language, or maybe it was a sticker celebrating leif ericson day! Or perhaps celebrating (for whatever insane reason) the accomplishments of leif garrett. Ya never know!

Inexplicable.

Hard to say exactly what was the Cosmic Messagem though it does sound like a “Hey, wassup!” from the universe.
