Casey Kasem is "Missing" and the Number 311

This is a weird one. When I was writing my previous post about the "missing" Nigerian girls I noticed the logo on the "Bring BACK Our Girls" sign was odd.

The letters C and K in the word BACK were turned to face each other. It bothered me. (sidenote: The word Forest in the other sign bugged me too, but I don't know why yet.)

Now a very famous (CK) is "missing"... Casey Kasem.  As the voice of Scooby Doo, he was already associated with the notoriously missing dog:

(thanks Jason)

Numerically, CK = 311 (C=3, K=11, thanks Benjamin for catching that)

That number has been cropping up a lot on the sync blogs. I'm trying to collect examples so we can determine it's meaning.  It seems to have something to do with going underwater (underworld?), Atlantis, something lost returning and rising like a phoenix, and/or an extraterrestrial theme.  At any rate 311 is flashing like a beacon in our collective consciousness.

List of 311 Sync Examples 

(work in progress...I'll be updating it as I find them)

1. 3/11/11 was the date a tsunami and earthquake devastated Fukushima, Japan.

2. 3001, the fourth and final book in Arthur C. Clark's Space Odyssey series. Not exactly a 311, but if you count the monolith on the cover as a number 1...

3. 311 is Emma's apartment number in NY when Capt. Hook arrives to help her regain her memory and return to Storybrook (Once Upon a Time, S3, Ep.12, "New York City Serenade", airdate: 3/09/14).

4. The rock band 311 - the cover art for their album STER3OL1TH1C has an extraterrestrial theme. (thanks Noah)

5. On May 10th a military jet crashed near Phoenix, AZ. Symbolically it went underwater since it crashed on the Gila RIVER Indian Reservation in the Yuma Desert. And the "phoenix" bird of course denotes return/rebirth.  The media also made a big deal about the pilot surviving with only a laceration to his nose. Last night I dreamed of a happy, music-playing elephant with skin missing from his face and trunk...Ganesh the elephant is my favorite Indian god but I'm not sure what that has to do with this yet.

Note the numbers on top of one of the police cars at the plane crash site is 1103.

[NOTE: The only other time I blogged about a letter pattern sync it was E-F-G associated with a cycle of sevens after the 3/11 Japan Tsunami-Earthquake. During that time, a legendary "E"...Elizabeth Taylor, then Geraldine Ferraro (GF), then actor Farley Earle Granger (FEG) passed away within days of each other.]

UPDATE 5/13/14 at 3:52pm EST:

[Guys, the lost/missing/found syncs are rolling in fast and furious. CNN.com just changed it's front page headline to a story about how COLUMBUS'' ship the SANTA MARIA may have been found off the coast of Haiti.

I'm dying because the blog article I was working on last night and intended to post today (before I was sidetracked by Casey Kasem) was about the TV show The Mentalist. On the show's current storyline girls were being kidnapped and sold for their organs and the FBI ends up finding the missing girls on a cargo ship inside a container at the port in SANTA MARTA, COLUMBIA.]
