this is all very cool and i'm glad to bee following it as it happens.

but no one has said anything new for at least 200 pages.

this is one of those times when something so cool has happened that we all just want something else cool to also happen.

now that i've read all the secret content at ilovebees, read all the source code, sent emails to both aunt margaret and dana, and even called dana's voicemail in san fran, what do i do now?

You are mad, and wrong:
Bungie have just released the trailer across the web saying NOVEMBER THE DAMNED NINTH GUYS! and in the bottom there's a link to this obscure website with a hidden message.

NOT SO HIDDEN is the countdown which ends on the 24th august. Now then, given you're superior intelect, can you deduce the POINT in going to all that trouble to publicly state Nov 9th if theyre gonna turn around and link to a different release date?

i'll tell you what, because you really shouldnt be allowed to make decisions, i'd decide for you, the game is out Nov 9, the contdown is for something else.

I got this from junkyard.net This morning, something quite strange cropped up. It seems the Halo 2 Theatrical Trailer has an Easter egg of sorts. At the end, for two frames, the www.xbox.com URL under the Xbox logo changes to www.ilovebees.com. The site appears to be hacked, but looking deeper will find many an odd detail. Among these are the META keywords and cryptic messages scattered throughout the domain. It has been noted that the countdown on the front page is to August 24, 77 days before Halo 2's release (remember Bungie's odd fascination with the number seven). Some odd phrases can be found in the hex for several of the site's images as well.

I called the number provided in ilovebees.com's WHOIS data. A fairly normal-sounding answering machine came on (a recording can be found here), and I left a message. You will be updated if I get a return call.

The site's owner put up a blog after the hacking occurred. Much information about the site can be found there, in addition to some posts by "Cortana" that are excerpts from the Cortana Letters. There seems to be a connection that Bungie is involved in some way; why would they not take legal action if one of their copyrighted characters was connected to a hacking?

This incident, dubbed The Haunted Apiary, has even managed to make its way to Slashdot. Discussion is also underway at The HBO Forum, Bungie.net, and unfiction.

Well its called The Haunted Apiary now. It seems like this is similar to all your base...........
