Business has followed government in intelligence gathering. Does anyone actually read what they sign away when they buy Apps, join Gmail, or have a smart cell phone. They are looking at everyone you call, e-mail, chat with, and the places you visit online. Everyone is so worried about the government, but business are actually out to make money off you and the intelligence they gather about you.
Hopefully CJ will address some of those pending issues in the epilogue. I think the fearless foursome should make out well with the media. I see a trip to NYC and appearances on Today, GMA etc in their future as well.
The Braves are doing well Bill!
For the first third of the long season we have several teams in the National league doing well including my Cardinals, the Reds, the Pirates and the Diamond Backs as well.
With a bit of luck, a few less injuries and continued good pitching we should be ok.
I thought it a very interesting and well written chapter. It explains what Calvert and co. were doing and how things went. It appears that getting to where they think Granger is will be delayed as there was mention of doldrums.
as usual and I wait with anticipation for the next installment. Thanks!
The chapter was excellent. It was gripping but still a very fast read.
I really look forward to the epilogue and CJ's plans for his next opus!
Thanks again!
Tony and Will do seem to have ongoing problems. I was surprised Will decided to go back to the float after the confrontation when they went to get ice. That Will let Carmine do him and then the way he responded to Tony seemed to forcefully confirm their status was down graded to fuck buddies. I don't see Tony going to Hawaii with Will.
Welcome back! The hiatus was nothing compared to some other authors with the initials CJ who has made us wait an unbelievable length of time!
The plan is interesting in what was not revealed. The orders George left for Calvert were not revealed with any detail and could prove interesting. What awaits them in Calcutta is completely open to speculation and then George and his much shrunk retinue are planning to make a difficult crossing. I am not sure how Winkler will hold up nor the weakened Granger for that matter.
As usual!
Glad to hear you and Paya are taking advantage of living in London. I think I could spend weeks just in the British Museum alone not to mention all the other museums, galleries and historic churches and sites. When we visited for a week in January 1986, it was great because it wasn't tourist season and we didn't have to waste time in lines.
I find it interesting that the three National League teams are all relatively small market clubs and yet are fielding some of the best baseball in the majors. I think one player on the Yankees (A-Rod) makes more than the entire Pittsburgh pitching rotation including relievers and the closer.
Wow! Tony found his backbone and bailed on Dana! It was about time.
Tony's friends appear shallow for the most part. Hopefully, sober and on the river will be more interesting.
The Cards, the Reds, the Rangers, and the Pirates sit a top all of baseball standings in that order as of Sunday morning. Who'd of thought the National League Central would be so dominant through the first third of the season?
Perhaps help was in the same building. I think our poor protagonist has more to undergo before he really gets to understand what is going on.
Good hook Dolores, now on to chapters 2-4 which are up.
First, Granger was sent to appolnt a new governor and replace Bertie. Bertie's plan to go to India may have to be scrapped. Dealing with the stolen correspondence is a priority. Granger's other ship and the large sum of silver they should have may figure into his options as well. Finally, the young Dutchman may also be of value. Mark has made Oddessy into a truely surprised filled tale.
Now we must wait and I hope not too long!
George's fever did peak and the recovery has started as I predicted in my review of Ch.41. The way Mark conveyed that was astonishingly well done. Also we now have learned of Maidstone's duplicity and his stealing of Bertie's correspondence. Catching the Bacchante does seem to be a problem.
Perhaps Granger's other ships will arrive soon.
Still not looking forward to the hiatus after this chapter, but certainly understand.
More than usual the current chapter is certainly !
