[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 63287, member: 301"]Kasper.....Greg......there are things out there we just don't understand ....although some claim they do. Long story short......I have an african mask. It led me to it's hiding place ( it was really hidden from sight..) in an antique store.....where I had to buy it. After years of it sitting on my shelf in the back room of my gallery, I placed it in a box , where years later other boxes, papers and files had piled up on top of it was virtually out of sight. It didn't like that ! One day a couple of odd folks walked in the gallery , sat down at my desk and we were chatting. All of a sudden , both became highly agitated & were insistent on locating the object that they say was giving off strong vibrations and energy that was causing them distress. We were sitting in a fully stocked Indian art gallery & I was curious as to which native mask or carving could be freaking these folks out !! They said " no, not here , it was in the back room " ........Huh ? OK, I had some choice items there , so I invited them in. They went straight to a pile of boxes & papers , started shaking , & said that's where the vibrations were coming from. There was no other art work there, just storage stuff , but they homed in on one box .......& then I remembered what was in it !! I dug it out from the pile, & opened it up to reveal that African mask. That's when the both of them went wide eyed scared, started ranting at each other & bolted out the back, thru the gallery & out the front door ....never looking backwards ! I never saw them again.......took the mask out of the box and placed it carefully back on a shelf.....with a nice view of it's surroundings. Now it sits on a shelf , surrounded by african items, 8 feet away from where I'm sitting. I suppose it's content ![/QUOTE]
