Warning: Had a strange talk with a guy named Carl at a diner in Boise about the 'Denver Airport' murals

I was grabbing a coffee last month and this older guy, Carl, sat down next to me and just started talking. He pointed at a map on the wall and said, 'You know those murals in Denver aren't art, they're a blueprint. The artist, Leo Tanguma, was told exactly what to paint to prepare us.' He was dead serious and said the lizard people under the airport are waiting for the signal. It wasn't just online stuff, he really believed it. Has anyone else run into someone who ties random art into a full world-ending plan like that?

I was in a used bookstore in Portland and a guy showed me a first edition of 'Alice in Wonderland'. He said the illustrations were a secret code about underground cities. He had notes in the margins connecting the Queen of Hearts to some old CIA project. It's wild how a piece of art can become a whole puzzle for someone. They see a story the rest of us just don't. It makes you wonder what kind of pressure builds up in a person to make those links.

Know a guy who sees hidden messages in sidewalk cracks, swears they're maps to buried treasure. Makes me wonder if some brains just get stuck on a setting where everything connects. Kinda sad, but also a little amazing how a mind can build a whole world out of nothing.
