  1. I'm still hoping that reason finally prevails. I'd really like for Brad to have a real discussion with someone (overheard by Wade so we can be in on it) discussing calmly and rationally some real alternatives to take to Will and discuss before they ever got to the hearing. Jeanine's rights will be terminated. Temporary guardianship could be handed over to JP until Brad and Will can rebuild their trust issues. Will would have to cede a lot of his "all or nothing" attitude and Brad will have to cede his control. After some suitable interval, Michael would accidently meet his demise. Of course, as that is what I would expect to happen in a so-called "normal" soap opera type story, Mark probably has something entirely different planned....

    Chapter 62

    Well this chapter clearly describes Will having an epiphany but not Brad. However, Will did leave Brad with some real horse apples to chew on at the end of the chapter. So perhaps, he too will still come to his senses before the court hearing. Another riveting chapter!

    Part 12.

    Read all posted chapters today 8-29-12 and just wanted to say I am really enjoying the story. The trio is way interesting and the pod of dolphins is beyond amazing. All the Aussi heritage stuff was way cool and now I've got to do a search and find out if the music actually exists.....
  4. Nice to see Shane and Trevor having fun. Lisa and Joel seem to have taken time for a little fun too! Clearly the witch is determined to destroy the evidence by destroying the boats and it seems preferably with Trevor and Shane aboard. A little change in luck for her would seem appropriate.
  5. Anticipation. Starting to get the first tremors awaiting my Granger fix. Hopefully sometime in the next several hours.
  6. It was a dream fulfilled in a time of assassinations and great political upheaval. The reluctant and quiet hero was a man for the ages.
  7. Parents have power. Their offspring can always decide to leave and from the statistics, thousands do every year. Some by running, some by suicide or suicidal gestures and some just become husks and mentally shut down. People who want parents to be responsible for everything forget that free will doesn't start at age 18.
  8. I didn't find anything about the chapter lame. There was plenty of bullheadedness, a little whining and some raised voices as well as some real concern, compassion and a sense of tragedy. Brad has gotten his way for so long that he has forgotten something important. Until he has some insight as to what is going on and why "his" family is no longer supporting him and following his lead, his former relationship with the family could be ruined. I think he is starting to get that he has somehow in his dealings with Will, let down JP & Steff as well as Claire and the rest of the family. I'm just not sure that he realizes just how much at this point! As I said in my review, I hope he has a true epiphany soon!

    Chapter 61

    Wow! I sure hope Brad has an epiphany soon before he irretrievably ruins his family relationships.
  10. Every guy is indiscreet at some point in their life. Better when they are young and unmarried than older and supposedly more "mature".
  11. Thanks for the early posting of the latest chapter. I am still not entirely clear why Trevor and Shane are in so much trouble with Bridget and the cartel. She is already a known drug runner and the cartel is not exactly unknown either. Sanchez is dead and he was clearly linked to drugs. The fact that several years ago her late husband was planning to use evidence to implicate her is well over and I don't get that the cartel finding out about that now (when she clearly took care of the problem with Arnold's death years ago) would still be a problem. So I'm missing something. What is on the asset list that is so damaging? Hopefully, it will all be explained so that even those of us who read the story casually can figure it out.
  12. My guess is that Joel and Lisa are going to park Trev's old car at Bridget's old place? Thanks for the early post!

    Chapter 60

    Another very interesting chapter about Will. Interesting on several levels with some important background info. We learned about his trust funds. We learned that his shrink thinks that termination of rights for his mother is a good thing. We learn the timeline for the hearing. And finally, what an ending to the chapter! Will drops his bombshell and I found the extended family reaction a bit muted to say the least. I can't wait for the next chapter.
  14. I was trying to be tongue-in-cheek in my comment. Sorry if anyone took it the wrong way! At least I got to use one of my favorite words....
  15. Happy Birthday! Enjoy & Celebrate!
  16. What a load of palaver! I was hoping for some insight into the story and I got this.

    Chapter 13

    Precious girls and a daddy still deeply conflicted! Great chapter!
  18. Violins and bagpipes do Amazing Grace pretty well together. This sample starts with a pipe flute but the bagpipes come in during the middle. Of course, that would be a good ending to an evening's entertainment.
  19. Interesting chapter and I think Clydee has some interesting observations. Spencer of course is caught between numerous competing interests and who would want that job, especially with doddering old fools hanging on forever, and having enough clout to do so. Conway is the puzzle although there are enough opportunities for subplots to turn this into a really long story. So which is it? The east coast of South America or the West coast of South America where he is supposed to cause havoc? My recollection is that there may have been a change......

    Chapter 17

    Thanks for my Granger fix! Conway is a puzzle as he seems a worthy ship's master with some very practical ideas, yet has a Maidstone connection that cannot be forgotten. I look forward to seeing this puzzle play out.
  21. AT&T has started filming commercials (adverts) in Aussie land?
  22. Happy Birthday Bill W!
  23. Happy Birthday! May your day be filled with laughter and joy!

    Great start! I'm in for the duration.
  25. The time delayed NBC showing of the parade of athletes actually went well in the opening ceremony which still was a bit long otherwise. I think the Brits did an outstanding job especially with having to be compared to China last time. The fact that the home field advantage was well played and Great Britain did well in the medals was inspiring as well. Also, now London bankers and government officials can get back to business and hopefully muddle through the current recession.
