Hey folks, Harry here... The bastard killer known as Derek, currently operating under the pseudonym of PETER JACKSON has a secret. A project that he is utterly delighted that I know nothing about. This means he's also delighted that YOU know nothing about it.... Unless you do know something about it... Are YOU part of this conspiracy? If you are e-mail me immediately with the details! If not... Here's what we know for a FACT!

This top secret project... Begins with the first three letters "BAR" In recent TAUNTING Emails I've received from Derek (I KNOW YOUR REAL NAME BASTARD KILLER!) he's begun to type it as... "BAR - !!cough!!" He obviously expects me to just lay back and act frustrated in childish... NOT I!!! I'll show Him!!! I've seen the Gauntlet on the ground... at least I thought it was a Gauntlet... might've been a stick, but that's beside the point... I'm on the case and I need your help. IN PARTICULAR - you readers in New Zealand!

In the coming month, Peter is going to be shooting something that involves "!!cough!! and !!sneeze!!" that must be shot before the trees lose their leaves. Naturally I thought this would have to do with RETURN OF THE KING, but... He's not doing those pick up shots till June to early July... So what is he shooting out in the woods? Where he needs trees with vegetation still attached?

Ok, it might still have to do with LORD OF THE RINGS, but I don't think so... there's a giddiness to his infernal taunts that seems to denote a sense of urgency. Now, I know that isn't much to go on, but... hang on... I've got more....

TheOneRing.Net recently ran a link to an interview with Richard Taylor (Known Derek Conspirator or KDC for short). It seems that the wiley and kindly Richard Taylor has been giving his time to inspire high school looking kids in New Zealand to pursue their dreams and in a long Closed Circuit School Broadcast (FOUND HERE!!!) he discussed with the kids their designs, the various techniques that he and the wizards of WETA have employed to kick everyone's collective arses. WELL... Because I'm fairly desperate for information about "BAR - !!cough!!" I'm checking out everything having to do with Derek and his known co-conspirators, I was watching this whole heart-warming program.

Throughout it all there was this furry looking thing facing away from me that I was very curious about. What was it? Then in the final segment, Richard Taylor had wish co-worker put it on. Here's what it was...

"This is a Yeti head for something that WETA is doing on its own right now!" he exclaimed while making it move!

Uh huh... I'm convinced that this may possibly maybe could be something that might be involved with "BAR - !!cough!!" I'm sharing this with you because... well that's what good geeks do... They share INFORMATION! Yup, they MAIL ME WITH INFORMATION ABOUT "BAR - !!cough!!" No no, it's alright, I'm fine... But I am going to find out (someday... sniffle) what Peter J... I mean DEREK is up to. Just cuz I'm in Texas and he's in New Zealand he thinks he can keep a secret... We'll show those Bastard Killers!
