Tell Us About Your Ability

And to think, we all knew him way back when.

Well, not way back, exactly, but definitely far enough back for us to meet and chat with the smart, shy, 17-year-old boy known on our forum as “kingeternal,” and now in the rest of the country as Graham Holt. From his first tentative, polite and unobtrusive posts, none of us could have guessed Graham would end up almost bringing the city of Seattle literally to its knees in near-religious devotion to him.

None of us could have predicted the way the situation would be defused, either — by a hooded Jordan Collier, who stepped in and erased Holt’s 4400 ability with a touch! (So, looks like Mr. Collier actually does have an ability besides being rich and having better hair than me.)

I know after Rick Baughlum’s now-infamous 180, I shouldn’t really be shocked by anything, but I am. Maybe I should just go ahead and get the botox, since my eyebrows are fixed in a semi-permanent arch of surprise lately anyhow, and I have the feeling it’s not going away any time soon.

In other news - good news - I’ve finally figured out my ability. I’m able to stop ethanol in its tracks and send it packing. One touch from me, and the inebriated become the sober, with just a 5 second hangover.

  • VIDEO: MNCN’s coverage of what some are calling “The Wrath of Graham.”
  • VIDEO: One of Holt’s embarrassed classmates shows off his collection of Grahamorabilia. (Hope the kid can throw a ball, ’cause I sure don’t think he’s getting any art scholarships.)
  • ARTICLE: “Seattle Waking Up From Holt’s Spell” A town scratches its collective noggin in the aftermath of Graham’s quest for popularity. (Gotta love them psychiatric experts and their theorizin’ — wonder how much a job like that pays?)
  • ARTICLE: “Seattle Incident Felt Nationwide” In the wake of Holt’s hijinks, will we soon see more towns going the way of Stone Hollow?
  • ARTICLE: With all the talk of Seattle temporarily losing its backbone, it’s refreshing to hear about one man’s quest to build backbones up.
  • ODDITY: A strange notebook is discovered in NYC, full of drawings, poems, and stories about a forum thread. What’s that about?
