............Great chapter! Looks like the hunter is now to become the hunted, Mr. B has underestimated Trevor and company. Bridget's spiel sounds good to Sanchez, hopefully he will not talk to Billy about George's last comments. I think a search by all of those aboard the Kookuburra may turn up more then just the transmitter So Bridget may not have to bother with having it picked up, it will finally be delivered to the US government who try in vain to return the 'laundry list' back to Bridget and Sanchez. I think the game has played long enough and the tables have been turned around.

...............Especially a new chapter!

Congrats to all the nomines and winners!

...................I noticed that the King of Clifhangers was slightly enlarged in the fonts!! ../..//public/style_emoticons/default/whistle.gif

Okay, a question: WHERE IS BASINGSTROKE??? I'm amazed no one has notices.....something ................... I thought he might already be on board, but wouldn't someone have spoted his raft? Unless he had time to deflate it and hide it. But he had charcoal and other supplies, and had to be careful about chancing being spotted by our heros as they would have to surface for air every so often. So I would think he will be waiting for them to board the boat and then, hail them. Hopefully, Trevor will call Uncle Greg first.

.......................I'm not surprised at Bridgets escape, in fact I was pretty sure she would have escaped from the coast guard and police from justy the jist of the goats entollment of her boats new 'powers', her prowness did not suprise me, after all I have been reading the goat for some time! Nah, Bridgets demise is written in the stars and to be soon, Trevors and company will be the last test to try us readers, as the last piece of the puzzel will be the finding of the docuements left by Arnold. Of course here is always Julie to contend with!

.........I'm sure anyone that is following it!!

........Tragic case on both sides, a stupid prankster and a stupid gay kid that offed himself. But the prankster violated the others privacy.. and for that he should be held accountable as it is against the law. As far as a hate crime, nope, don't agree here, he may have been a bit homophobic but his actions did not seem to warrent that of said crime.His juvneille antics are middle school ones, he learned nothing from his higher grade before entering college, a case in point to teach the younger generation of bullying effects.

..................... Nice I knew somehow Bridget was going to escape Wesson/Florida style of justice. Now lets se if she can escape the cartles vengenge as I see her world unraveling very soon. So Joel and Trevor are carrying armed .45 cal shark sticks? I wonder if Mr. B. knows that or that there are a couple of Tiger sharks in the area? I suppose a quick jump in the drink could solve his confusement! Great chapter, I was a bit astonded at Bridget's evasive nature, and frankly disappointed at the Police and Coast Guards response to it. But I'm sure Bridget's demise will be a delicious ending outweighing her escapade. Likewise I see Trevor and company prevailing over an over confident Mr. B. and a hungry Tiger Shark. Lets see if Uncle Greg can shed some light on the 'hidden secrets' of the Kookburra, that our heros can uncover after the fianl attempt on Trevor. Or is it? Can Julie still be involved? Looking forward to next weeks chapter Goat, don't disapoint me!!

Great chapter, loved the mystery of the druids in the family tree history. The church service/sermon was awesome, I don't know why you doubted yourself about writing it in. I think having them both come out will not be much of a surprise to the family at all, I'm sure they figured it out already. So far, so good, so when is the other shoe going to drop? Looking forward to more!!

....................... IMHO, religion play a part in most stories, especially gay ones. If it factors in later chapters I say go for it.

.............. I am going out on a ledge here and predict that Mr. B's demise is ahead of Trevors and compamy. How that is done is the goats devious ploy, either by deployment of his inflatuable boat or by confrontaion with the four teens. I see the confrontation if any as Shane takng the taser, Trevor and Joel reacting as Mr. B does not expect teens to react this way and they over power him. Then again there was the goats early on take of the dangeroius and deadly meetings with some of the lands deadly inhabibtants.

............... I wouldn't worry to much, Circumnavigation will be put into the book shelf, but the goat will have another evil cliffhanging saga coming up soon!!

.................. Mr. B is very lucky that all 4 are together, what would he have done if say Joel and Lisa stayed ashore? Bridget is equally lucky, those police helicopter pilots acted like they had never done this sort of chase before. Shouldn't they be in contact with each other and chopter 2 known that the boat was firing on them? And Billy, what can I say what a skilled shooter Great chapter!!

....................

............ I agree the child should not have been used as a guinea pig in what appears to be a social expierement.

So sorry to see her go, she was an Icon, her rendation of the Star Spankled Banner was the greatest I had ever heard.

...............It's coming to a head, Ya think? Well all is not as it seems in the goats world, could be Bridgets capture, or Mr. B's sudden demise, or the dastrldly demise of our young heros. The fun filled days of the last filled chapters are a figment of our goats warped mind here, as he baits us with titles of the chapters. On face value you'd think that the chapter was about Mr. B. completing his mission, yet it could mean several other scenerios. I opt that Trevor and company never meet Mr. B. here on the island as he met his fate with an Australian nemisis aka a deadly native animal. More likely though is the capture of Bridget in this next chapter, if she is captured will she cop a plea to avoid the retribution of the cartel and seek a safe haven cell? In doing so will she disclose the matter of the documents she believes hidden on the Aries? That leaves Sanchez in a problem, his life! That info can spur our heroes into action to find the evidence. But the evil goat can not let that go, taken all the danger away must leave another, perhaps SteveO was right in his assumption.

.............Wow! I forgot about this story, so glad you got out another chapter, however I had to re-read the two previous chapters to reorient myself in the plot. I'm glad for Marks new location, I hope he does well but do have some concerns with Tom's newly founded attraction to him. This should be very interesting, as Tom needs to erase his demons before trying to get into a relationship. In fact he has a lot of crow to eat with me culpa in between. Great chapter, looking forward to more.

.................. Thanks for the map link, I screwed up my islands

................. I checked there is an airstrip on the island, located at the northeast portion of West Wallabi Island, remember Mr. B. claimed his good fortune in not having to rent a boat.

................ Well that chapter was worth the wait it looks like Bridget cannot escape this time, as fast as her boat is the helicopters are faster, I looked up the USCG Chandeleur, and its speed can top 26 knots. While the Jayhawk helicopter speed is 135-140 knots (155-161 mph). Of course Billy could always go swimming and buy Bridget a little more time while the chopper rescues Billy. But I think it more likely that Bridet will try to fight. Great Chapter Goat!!

Hahaha! Is it TJ or JT now? Great chapter, nice and easy before a storm type of chapter, looking forward to more. I liked the pastor's views and the 3 musketeers vows.

............Then again the difference between a friend and fiend is just one letter!!

..................That pass to Mario overshadowed the one of 4 years ago, but was remenescent of the that game that cost the Patriots again.
