...............Chapter 11 & 12 review!! First off, I am very happy to report that my PC is now working in top shape, the last month or so a bug got into my system and got got worse each day. Had I lived on a 2nd story landing I might have throw the damn thing out the window, I was so frustrated. It took the tech guy 5 hours to clean up the PC. Well I didn't see that coming, Matt becoming physically confrontational with Blake, and I have no clue this time on his actions. Peter offered a few, I had dismissed all of them myself, as it didn't make sense. Q-man, no fair you left no clues in 11 !! Well I actually ran over into chapter 12 already with Peter's musings. And now we have the surprise of Matt at the door! BTW, I don't have a problem with the religious people coming to my door anymore, they have seemed to cross my house off their list after my first conversations with them!! I wonder why?

................Indeed the question of the day is 'where the hell is the last chapter?"

.................I saw that, it gives my hope!

....... At a cat 5 storm that Dean is presenting itself to be, I have no doubt the shoals will be covered by a surge acceptable of the Atlantis needs to make the voyage. Meanwhile, 'As the band plays on' Tic Toc, tic toc, drum roll, finger roll on desk, .......tic toc....tic toc.

.Ah Nephy, another chapter, thank-you! So you have it all set up for an epic battle. Foremost is to get Pasha back and in good health, then the mystery of who the captures are and their fate. Humm, next chapter should be great!! Benji

Explaining to a younger person what an 8 track is, and then having to ask what an MP3 player was!

.......There are 6 people that I can tell that are beta and zeta reading the chapters for CJ, Usually when the winged bird responds there is only one left to read the chapter. I know who it is, and he is pretty much responsive if he is at the PC at the time. I feel assured that this chapter will post @ Tuesday!

Then if I'm corrrect there is only one other person that needs to review this chapter before sending it back to CJ for positing

........Well Q-Man, that was a nice tranquil chapter, with Ethan still feeling guilty and Blake with butterflies in his stomach feeling.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MYR!! ......... Hope you had a good one!!!!

......Another reason why goats shouldn't eat tin cans, who knows what nastiness resides those cans!!

....... Nah, I just think Matt is just peeved that Blake didn't tell him earlier. He'll cool down then confront Blake later, honestly some str8 people think it is the easiest thing to do, to come out to their friends. Nice chapter, I knew they were going to get outted!!

Sorry about that, my PC is on the Fritz!!!

.........Steve, Steve, Steve LOL! .....So at Atlantis running at 16 knots and the weather giving him another two plus the Island approach 1/2 knot he will be at 18 no matter what. ......Quote "Trevor allowed himself a smile. “Yeah, but we’ll be a bit lighter without the mast, rig, and cockpit canopy. That’ll give us maybe another half knot. We’re also in an area of westbound current that runs about a knot and a half, plus there’s the effect of the storm surge on the coast north of us that’s speeding the current up by about a knot. In moderate seas, with a bit of helm input to play the swells, we’ll be fast enough, barely, to stay in the eye. I think.” So by Trevor's estimation the boat will be running at 18 knots no matter what. He can to keep the boat in place he can make landfall. Frankly I see Captain Pickard and company unlikey to make a rescue!!!

........ An another one, an another one BITES THE DUST! Congrats to MN I would have never thought that in that state!

.............I'm somewhat envious that you are behind so far in this story, as a reader follower of this saga of almost 3 years, I cannot tell you how excruciating it is to get the final chapters in a timely manner. The goat is surely evil!

........Ah, another happy chapter with no tension in it!! There is something else Gabe knows, and he isn't going to walk into a trap this time. Great chapter Nephy

............ Have I ever told you how evil you are goat?

................ HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAT Hope you have a good one!!!

.........I agree the northern one might too much of a reach, however the southern one, Punta Herrero looks perfect if the southern west portion of the inlets harbor can protect the Atlantis from the punishing winds from the storms wrath. Landfall by itself will weaken the storm, but if Trevor can get the boat on the southwest of the inlet, Dean will only be able to push towards the land area without too much force being overland and stricken by the terrain in its force. Besides the goat did mention that the escape from Dean needed to come from the southwest. Thanks! I think that answered the question!

..............Can you provide a map of the area where Dean will make landfall showing this cove/bay?

.............I have not responded to this topic, because I'm still confused on their being saved. After the last comment, the only way out of the belly is to ride it out into landfall in Mexico. I'm not concerned about the remaining cartel of Bridget or the first of among others, the ones on the Island of Jamaica are finished, the others in the Caribbean will be taken out by the opposing cartel via Frank's phone call. If the US is able to track the Atlantis and pinpoint a time of her arrival, perhaps they can get in a helicopter to rescue them while still in the eye and landfall loosened winds of the storm, as I doubt very much the Mexican government would attempt a rescue. The only problem I see is that Trevor would not want to leave Atlantis alone and abandoned. Still there is the Australian connection to be addressed, with the witch being dead the story only points to the rescue and safety of those aboard the Atlantis, most of all else is resolved here. A whale being a savior is hardly likely, nor is superman or Dorthy's shoes.

..........Well, Blake is moving faster with coming out then I thought he would. I wonder if Ethan would consider transferring schools? Ande as Daddydavek said, continue the scene. Nice chapter Q-man, looking forward to more!

.........By a pig no less!!!
