Bert and Ernie!! LOL!

.................That's good to know!! I always thought he lived in the NW of the state.

..................Well Q-man, I got a bonus, since my PC was down awhile back, I didn't know that you posted chap. 14, so surprise that I got 14 &15. I think this gave me an insight & understanding why Jason and Peter broke up for awhile, the guilt here is tremendous. I suppose going back to court will help resolve this issue. Thanks for the chapters! Benji

................... I think their 'storm chasing' days are over!

.................Now that I think about it, that should have a big clue that Grundig was not involved. Nowhere afterwards did it speak of the Bridget knowing of the failed attempt. Although her contact knew, he didn't relay that info to Bridget that I'm aware of. After all he was bailing out of a bad situation gone wrong and retired. I see little advantage of the 'OZ family being a little more then a footnote here, maybe the close family visiting Florida to see Trevor and Shane.

............So glad I went out and looked on it Saturday, and saw it in it's glory, as today was cloudy!

.........................Sorry Steve!!

.........................Silly, the super moon will bring SCOTUS to decide tha DOMA is wrong and Prop 8 is wrong.

............. I think it is a moot point anyways, the cartel is destroyed, and whoever it was is no longer employed. LOL! Steve pushed this to the limit with his assumption, yet I doubt it was Grundig.

.........I stand corrected, wasn't sure I had it right and just went forward in my post.

..................... You are certainly right about one thing, someone in the loop with the coast guard of Australia was in cahoots with the cartel.

.................Looks good Steve, However I didn't know Joel was that skinny!!

................Although I doubt that I wouldn't put it him pass him, no I expect a long chapter in wrapping up the long voyage of Trevor, and the residuals of effects on Lisa and Joel, who will also become celebrities from riding the storm and escaping the cartel. Once the media storm lets up, the book will revisit the attention to Trevor. I foresee Trevor and Shane working the Florida coast for the season and flying back to Australia for their season in the tourist trade of excursions. After all how long can Shane's visa last in the US?

...................... No clue to your question, I have never read the books nor seen the movie(s)

................... I thought on that, seeing that the seasons are turned around, Trevor and Shane would stay in the US during the spring/summer months and depending on Shane's vista fly back to OZ during their likewise weather cycle for charters.

..............Yep, Lisa and Joel need a real honeymoon without hurricanes, Bridget and the cartel!! I wasn't sure if Julie ever met Lisa, perhaps when she was Captaining Trevor's boat. Other then that I don't remember. Bridget however goes without saying! Gonzales does not need another promotion, he will be fine fixating his passion on crooked cops, with Henry always on his mind.

............... I think Trevor and Shane have done enough traveling, perhaps the family will visit him in Florida!

...........................Book sales, Trevor's car, what is left of Bridget's assets for Jim and Dirk, and the gold. I can't see Trevor being cooped up for long on land, so will the insurance company rent them another cat? Back to the book, will the publishers be able to have it beta read in time to publish it 3 years later? There is that promised interview with the Aussie reporter, I imagine the boys will be wanted by shows like Oprah (Errr, what year is this saga in?). Anyway after all that, just have them sail into the sunset!

...............Nope, highly doubt it!

................ Well, that was a grand finale, great writing for the last chapter and a worthy ending for this saga. I see a lot of my theories came true, Frank and the Norte Carel and the releasing of the tape. The guns and Mexico, and Trevor making landfall in Mexico. I also knew Trevor did not want to leave the Atlantis behind and it turned out great that Joel and Lisa got her back in the water to re-unite later with Trevor. Loved the garlic crusher scene with Lisa, I think she retrieved it for Trevor too! LOL! The epilogue should sort out the the end of the press madness, the healing and getting back to normality for our your heroes. BTW, whatever happened to Trevor's car, I cannot remember? The book should be an instant bestseller and Trevor will have more then enough money to have the Atlantis completely rebuilt, insurance or not. Although I do wonder if the insurance company would take the chance to deny paying out in light of the publicity Trevor could garner with a single press conference! LOL! Without a doubt, Trevor and Shane will have no problem in getting bookings for the future, in either country. Sad as it is to see the end, it had to be so, by my count Trevor has used up almost 8 lives in this story. Falling overboard, the Suez canal, the pirates, the roaring fifties, Australia, south America, the cartel in Jamaica, and DEAN. Great story, thanks for the ride!!! Benji

......................My guess is 9pm PST

:worship: :worship: :2thumbs: :thumbup: :D :thankyou: :thankyou:

.........Well thanks CJ for the tidbit about a 'possible' posting of the last chapter over the weekend. Patience is a virtue, however I have no virtues!
