  1. But we don't know that! There may not even be a connection. CJ's speculating and both Jimmy and Jake appear more interested in his reasoning than the conclusion. And they're silent on what the CIA thinks, although Jimmy produced a picture taken in Panama, suggesting any Chinese delegation could be under surveillance. I wouldn't dare trying to figure out all the interactions and intricacies involved in that business.
  2. How about if I just carry a banana in my pocket?
  3. Professional Association of Diving Instructors. The people who teach you how to dive and give you a card to prove it. THE FOLLOWING IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE This is my current outline for chapter 3 of a book I haven't even started writing...

  4. I wasn't sure what emoji to react with. I'm not a fan of Will's, so I generally skim over references to his work. Days after taking the final exam for a couple of college English courses, I forgot all the Shakespeare content.
  5. I was harking back to the previous chapter and their time in Manhattan!
  6. My intent from day one was to have as varied a cast as possible. The Elite, The Squad, and The Wing were all diverse. So are the newer members of the supporting cast. I firmly believe exposure to different races and cultures enhances our lives. And since CJ's the idealized individual he is...
  7. Jack... Jack, where are you? Since visiting the place near me, I've been paying closer attention and noticing them more. There was a single yellow one fluttering around the other day and I stood watching until it left. You have a decent idea of what's coming. I keep wanting to write shorts and everything seems to balloon. Not sure how I kept the last one you read so concise. Shorter stories mean more frequent posts and that's been my goal over the past year or so.
  8. Nah... I'm still not happy with what I wrote before. I know where I would go next, but it might mean having to justify some changes to what I previously wrote. The time's not there right now. Anyway, my previous reply was wrong. Dragon's still in DC; Danno sold the bar and moved. Time for my nap.
  9. The first remark proves the second one. I think even in their 30s, I'd probably not have the energy for anything except a nap.
  10. Yep... but Dragon sold his bar and moved to Hawaii. Interestingly enough he gets at least a mention in two separate upcoming stories.
  11. Probably less after finding out about the contribution made in his name!
  12. Ozzie the Aussie (I'm so glad I kept the nickname in spite of Mann hating it) is no slouch. He can sling one-liners just doesn't do it as often as CJ or Brett
  13. But, but, but,,, Jose Maria? Hi, it's Carlos. You know those pills your cousin crushed into a drink a few years ago? You think I could get a couple of them? How's that for a blast from the past?
  14. One theory: The Chinese assume the CIA will figure out the new guy's a spy sooner than later and decide on a preemptive strike. In the process, the send the Americans a message, letting them know they're on to their newest boy toy, CJ. Problem is they got it wrong. I can add more twisties if those aren't sufficient.
  15. Sounds like your experience was better than mine. You're most definitely forgiven. After all, I do have a shitload of named characters in the series. Funny thing's I introduced Elpidio first because I planned to use him repeatedly. He sort of became their go-to bartender/server for gatherings in their apartment. LOL - it's too hard with higher prices to land on a specific number. The damn dial moves too fast these days. Well, thinking about it, since next chapter involves Chipper in Mexico, I could end the chapter with the explosion at the concert venue and wrap things up in another story in a year or so. Waddayathink?
  16. We're sorry but your attempt to modify the physics of the CJverse has failed. You're not an authorized admin.
  17. LMAO - We're still in Mexico and you're already thinking about what's next? Breathe, smell the roses, relax and enjoy the story. If I crash my Harley tonight and die, y'all will have to hope someone on staff publishes the chapters I've loaded. The rest... well, it'll be up to my heirs.
  18. Our man's a PADI certified diver.
  19. I recently mentioned to Myr I would drive traffic for a few more months. CDMX began posting last November as 6 mos is long enough to keep one story going. You, better than most, know I don't like to post unless everything's ready, and any longer than six months would probably need about a year off from posting. So yes, I'm impatient to be done with Mexico. There's something quasi related to CJ coming in June and again in July. We'll see if I can have anything else ready by August.
  20. How did you get a picture of the Chinese tattoo artist in my upcoming story?
  21. Did you see my comment about never having visited Butterfly World before even though it's just a couple of miles north? I did it for Liebe!
  22. Ritch may just get spanked, Air Force cadet or not.
  23. CJ ability to connect the dots and reach reasonable conclusions will serve him well in the future. And not necessarily in politics only. If Cesar has a knack for investments, I think CJ inherited some of the critical thinking that helps make them money.
  24. I suspect they may experience similar encounters in the future. Since the CIA declassified at least some of the Domogarov situation, and CJ's involvement was obvious, he's on a few radar screens right now.
  25. When's your birthday? I expect an invite. https://www.callawaygardens.com/the-gardens/places-to-explore/day-butterfly-center/
