Hooked on phonics didn't work for you; cemeteries

The word you are looking for is cemetery. Cemetery. C-E-M-E-T-E-R-Y. CEMETERY.

From Webster's:

cem·e·tery
noun \ˈse-mə-ˌter-ē, -ˌte-rē\
plural cem·e·ter·ies
Definition of CEMETERY: a good place to hide a corpse

Okay, maybe I embellished the definition part a little bit. But really. For the love of purple, please learn to spell this word correctly, especially if you're touting yourself as a "paranormal investigator". It's really hard to take you seriously as such if you cannot even spell such a basic word. I realize we all tpyo every now and then(see what I did thar?!), but when you repeatedly misspell a word so commonly used amongst the paranormal crowd, it tells me you probably don't really know what you're doing.

The excuse of "it doesn't matter if I spelled it wrong [repeatedly], you knew what I meant!" doesn't fly with me. Spelling does matter. It's the difference between whether or not people think you're an idiot. And possibly question your educational background.

If you'd like to pick on me a bit, I realize that I don't always grammar properly. 99% of the time it's done purposely. Because I can. Neener.

So, with that out of the way...

I have a list of new-to-me cemeteries to check out, though some will need to wait probably another month or so due to the weather. They're in the mountains and sound rather intriguing, particularly one that's shoved out in the forest somewhere. In the meantime, I have two that are closer to home-- one that I've already been to and one that I have not. Both of these are easily accessible... I just need the stinking weather to cooperate.

The cemetery I've already been to is one where I had an experience that I've never had in a cemetery before. It was weird and a little unsettling, though hardly terrifying (then again, very very little scares me, so something really outrageous would have to happen in order to elicit that sort of response from me). I'm not going to say just what it was quite yet, partly because I want to see if it happens again when I go back. The only problem with that is that I've already experienced it and may well anticipate experiencing it again, so I'll need to find a way to put the previous visit out of my mind. Alternately, I'll need to scrutinize any experience(s) I may have very carefully so as to determine whether or not they're legitimate the second time around. So, we'll see how that one goes.

The cemetery that I have not yet been to is one that contains the grave of an accused cannibal. This isn't an urban legend or somesuch; this person actually existed, but there are differing stories detailing that of which he was accused, largely because he kept changing his story over time. Regardless of how things actually played out, he was eventually convicted and jailed for this). His name was Alfred "Alferd" Packer and he was nicknamed "The Colorado Cannibal". Look it up, it's an interesting story. If nothing else, I think just seeing the grave could hold some entertainment value. Though I'm guessing he really should have listened to Chief Ouray.

As I am in possession(no pun intended) of a simple recorder(it's actually a basic mp3 player with a recording function), I may take it with me and see if I get anything. I'm not a huge fan of EVP recordings, though don't entirely discount them either.

So, once I've managed to get some of this accomplished, I'll report back, because I know all three of you who are reading this are waiting on pins and needles.
