    Hey! I never promised 4 chapters in a row. I already did that last month when I started posting. If I repeat that move you guys will definitely be spoiled. And @Daddydavek will probably still be unhappy with the word count.

    Gingers can be dangerous when they get their hackles up...

    @Anton_Cloche Thanks, Tony. Love the Biker Santa. This was your Secret Santa chapter! Sinve I post new ones on Friday's and this one went up on a Thursday, there's another one on the way. Hope the Holidays and 2022 are gentle and kind to you and yours. Big Hugs!

    Or my knees. I'm nursing a coffee mug after having swallowed 4 ibuprofen and anointing myself with Ben-Gay, trying to get ready for my morning exercising. At least my sinuses are clear thanks to the menthol vapors, and the arthritis in the hands isn't acting up too much.

    “You did well. Much more focused than our first time.” Austin, on his back next to CJ, glanced sideways at his sparring partner. “We keep this up, one of us may end up needing medical attention.” After landing on it several times, CJ knew his butt would be bruised and sore that night. “Ha! Doubt that.” Marine Corps Sergeant Austin MacKenzie gulped air; the effort had winded him. “I started including some of the stretches you showed me. Regular PT doesn’t focus as much as you do on flex

    Merry, merry, Def. It does help when you sell your plan to the Secretary of Education first. LOL But I have a feeling it would be easier in Mexico no matter what. Come back tomorrow for our regularly scheduled chapter. 😃

    I've been trying to rake my brain thinking of any other gingers I may have mentioned in the series. Did I have an unnamed one in Cadet? I guess Tom Kennedy qualifies as one even though his head is now shaved.

    @Cris L Congratulations on you wedding!!! And thank you for validating what I wrote. You should watch the movie; CJ and I did not do it justice with our brief description. I haven't seen it as many times as CJ has, but each viewing makes me enjoy it more. Like he says, it's a sports flick with a strong message.

    Having never watched a single episode of NCIS, I'll take your word for it. Alternatively, CJ's rules will be revealed whenever they fit something the author wants to achieve.

    @Daddydavek Did you forget this was a Whole Foods shopping trip instead of COSTCO? Better quality, smaller quantity.

    Let's hope whatever hiccups we encounter are not too harsh. 🙄

    By the end of the story, she'll love Uncle Linc even more. As far as I know, CJ, Owen, and Liebe should be arriving in Colorado about now. Some ten days in Vail should be fun. As soon as I get a report, I'll write it all up and share it. See ya tomorrow.

    Except for a hiccup here and there, I wanted this book to be upbeat. CJ's about to turn 24, he's graduated college, had a kid, and his life has changed, but I want him to retain the joy with which he's tackled everything up to now. Thank you.

    Ooops... we forgot Northman's a ginger too.

    I can't believe I'm using the same line readers torture me with: Too short.

    You must correct that oversight. Anything with either Freeman or Damon has a good chance of being great. Both together... I'm certain it's available right now, sither streaming or cable.

    I love that movie. Still working on those commandments, I'll share them as soon as I have them all. LOL You're the official poet of the CJ series, how'd you like me mentioning 3 poems in one chapter and all liked by our poetry disliking man?

    Nope. This isn't your regularly scheduled weekly chapter. Those post on Fridays. The reason for this one can be found on my status report for today.

    In his usual fashion, CJ has acquired friends quickly. They may not be as close as Squad members, but I guarantee some of them will show up in future stories.

    I tend to want to share historical details, locations, or a singular event, then I write a chapter around it. In this one I get to discuss Rugby and a bit of apartheid's end. But the best part was talking about Mandela, a perfectly imperfect man who changed the world, and Freeman, a superb actor I love (plus he's GOD!) Of course, throwing in a hottie like Matt Damon didn't hurt. Feel free to use the line to your heart's content.

    I always try to surround CJ with interesting people. Ugo was created so he could provide the background on the effect of the 1995 World Cup on South Africa's black population. His comments are partially based on the movie and a few interviews I read about it.

    There are 30 more chapters to this story. You never know when a ginger might show up. I was delighted when I discovered how important that poem was at the Air Force Academy while researching Cadet. With this chapter, I set the stage for CJ and Ritch to talk about it next time they see each other.

    Thank you, Jeff. This was a fun chapter to write, I'd been waiting forever to reveal why CJ liked Rugby. Whenever I get to have my characters discuss sports it's a good day. LOL

    “Go change. I’ll finish cleaning.” CJ pushed Owen out of the kitchen. Otherwise, the man would linger and insist on helping. “Head over now, and we’ll meet you at the park when I’m done. Weather’s nice, I’ll slip on shorts and a t-shirt, and dress Liebe the same.” Although they had not expected to be out late the previous evening, CJ and Owen had insisted Trixie Newman spend the night and join them for Sunday breakfast. Because Owen had a game with his new rugby team—the expat group from Oc
