Coz1 –
Nil-The-frog – That must have been a puzzling section to read for any non-native English reader.
Captain Kirk has nothing on me when it comes exploring the outer-reaches of English. But then what can you expect since I grew up watching the “Twilight Zone”. Tell you what if you wonder what the hell something I wrote means just ask.
I imagine writing “tied tighter than a deer on the roof of a pickup truck” was puzzling.
True our friends can’t see that they are being followed… yet.
Mettermrck – I agree, Rowe was fully within his rights to take his eyes off the road. Too bad the truck driver didn’t agree.
Stuyvesant – Aha! You’ve finally made a mistake with your usually reliable mind, your first sign of fallibility. If you reread a couple of posts back you will notice that Aurturo put down the paper and looked out of the side window. He was therefore unencumbered by the afore mentioned newspaper and free to let his senses roam. So he saw Shara’s move, Rowe's reaction and the bug splattered grillwork of the oncoming truck. He also saw the hills growing larger and the sheep off to the right not to mention the trash pile to his left and his left foot had gone to sleep but they don’t enter into our story so I left them out.
You are right in that Higgins is assuredly frowning at Rowe at this very moment.
Draco Rexus – I think in other circumstances, as in not having a gang of nasty Germans chasing him, he might actually make a move on Shara. But in the present situation he’s, shall we say, distracted.
Jwolf – Now, now don’t go paranoid on me. Sometimes a truck is just a truck.
Aurturo has proven resourceful more than once hasn’t he?
Draik – Now there is nothing self-biographic about Rowe. No sir not a bit of me is in his character. I was a real woman killer when I was young. I just tried to imagine what it would be like for those less fortunate than me in the wonderful pursuit of the fairer sex. Yep. I had to beat them off with a bat. They could be persistent little things.
J. Passepartout – Well I do admit that Felix would love to take advantage of life’s little gifts, as in an opportune accident, that makes it easier to kill our friends. But that fateful moment is still a little ways in the future.
Having problems with the next post. The damn thing just lies there on the page staring back at me. Dumb sucker. You’d think with all this practice it would fill up the page all by itself. Probably this weekend at the earliest for the next post. Unless it stops raining for like a whole day then I’ll be playing outside. Yea, what are the blankity-blank chances of that happening? Damn rain!
