As many of you have noticed, the character Mike, in chapter 31, is very familiar.

 

His name is Mike Grenouille, and Grenouille is French for frog! Mike Grenouille (or, translated, Mike the Frog) is from Tennessee, and is a specialist in herpetology, focusing mainly on.. frogs!

 

And he is trained in Amphibious Assault!

 

Now, who does that remind you of? He's our very own resident amphibian, MikeL!

 

So, unbeknownst to me, MikeL decided to drop in and see Trev and Joel. And what does he do? Why, he leads them towards the most dangerous area of unexploded munitions!

 

This is why MikeL will not claim that this is a cliffhanger; it's because he can't! He caused any cliffhanger, so he'd only be blaming himself.

 

So, I think the only reasonable thing he can do is to certify this chapter as cliffhanger-free.

 

Shall we all call on him to do so? Ir should he, instead, admit that, if there is a cliffhanger, he's the cause?

 

Hrmm, this question needs a poll. Added.

Nice try Mr. Goat :P

 

I am voting for the third and suprisingly absent (must have been written with invisible ink) and that option is:

 

C) CJames has just provided us with his first cliffhanger and is now eligible for the 2010 Reader's Choice Award for the King of Evil Cliffhangers.

 

In case you cannot see this option, feel free to post a letter "C" only :)

B)...............The theory loses its credibility when one remembers it is a goats trail Trevor & Joel are on. Surely a frog would have mined lily pads instead. 0:)

Readers should keep in mind that Circumnavigation is a work of fiction.

 

I am neither the cause of a cliffhanger appearing in the current chapter nor am I about to certify anything.

 

I have never had any amphibious assault training. My military service was in field artillery with the rather esoteric specialty of target acquisition. I worked as a communications and reconnaissance officer, an airborne observer, and a battery commander. I have never followed a goat trail through a minefield.

It is? :blink: That's news to me... And I'm sure it will be news to Trevor and Joel as well. :blink: Besides, how could you have paid a visit to fictional characters? :blink:

Hrmmm, sorry, but that's an obviously flawed argument... It's far more believable that a frog would have an amphibious specialty.

 

And, um, your user title? "Grenouille Gendarme ®"??? See, Grenouille... as in Mike Grenouille! And from Tennessee! Yep, it's you... and you led Trevor and Joel into the most dangerous of the unexploded ammo... And you DO have experience with artillery.

 

Why won't you just admit it? That's you!

This does not qualify me, because it was Mike, not me, who led the guys into the ammo.. That does, however, qaulify MikeL for the 2010 King of Cliffhangers award, if this is a cliffhanger.

Don't give him any ideas! :ph34r:

 

Oh, and I just noticed something... Wildone called this my FIRST cliffhanger... therefor, he's clearly saying that I've never used one before. (and this one, if it exists, isn't me doing, it was Mike's.). :boy:

I think Steve is referring to this being the FIRST cliffhanger of THIS story.

Yep, Mike Grenoulle is our very own MikeL! It was quite a surprise to me when I found out that he'd paid a visit to Trev and Joel, and gone on one of their charters. I was jealous! Well, except for the unexploded munitions part... :nuke:

 

I should have known it was a mistake to defend myself. The truth has no place in the world of goat fiction.

 

I really don't see how you can deny it... And I'm jealous! You were the first member of the team to set foot on Atlantis... Bondwriter was nearby, but he didn't get on Atlantis...

 

Don't worry, MikeL, I can always swoop in and save you.

 

You'd better pull him (and Trev and Joel) out of that artillery range... Mike seems to have a natural affinity for high explosives. :nuke: :ph34r:
