28 Somewhere in Nicaragua. Friday 00:45
|
|||
|
|
29 Bluefields lies on an inlet of the Caribbean sea, the white sand beaches sheltered from the tropical storms that ravage
|
|||
|
|
30 Central America in the spring. It is swampy, and hot-even at midnight.
|
|||
|
|
31 Hidden under a camouflage net, strung from teak and Balsa trees, a small group om men were chattering casually in
|
|||
|
|
32 Spanish-the occasional silence punctuated by the slapping of hands on faces and arms-already covered with small
|
|||
|
|
33 blotches of red. Mosquito Bay.
|
|||
|
|
34 The red star on the vertical stabelizer accented the silver fuselage of the Soviet cargo plane, against a backdrop
|
|||
|
|
35 of earthy browns and greens. It squatted at the end of the landing strip; cargo doors open; hungrily awaiting its load.
|
|||
|
|
36 Three men and a woman stood nearby, speaking in Russian; smoking American cigarettes. Waiting...
|
|||
|
|
37 "El trucca sera aqui en horas kinsey, si?" The uniformed Nicaraguan could just understand the Soviets crude Spanish-
|
|||
|
|
38 irritated that he did not speak in English. "Si, truck here in 15 hours" And they waited....
|
|||
|
|
39
|
|||
|
|
40 A light rain was falling over the Pacific northwest, and at ten thousand feet, rime ice was collecting on the leading
|
|||
|
|
41 edges of the wings. Net agent Parity turned the controls over to the rogue agent known as Delta Five, and did some
|
|||
|
|
42 quick calculations on the flight computer. "We have an abundance of fuel. What we do not have is time. Lets get above
|
|||
|
|
43 it." Wordlessly, Delta eased back on the yoke as he touched up the prop pitch and elevator trim.The red and white
|
|||
|
|
44 Dakota climbed slowly above the clouds.
|
|||
|
|
45 Parity switched the Nav-Com to one VOR, then another. More calculations were made. As he started to speak, Leo poked
|
|||
|
|
46 his head into the flight deck, handing cans of cold Bud to the pilots.
|
|||
|
|
47 Delta Five roared in approval;"Hey-you thought of everything!!" The tension was lessened. The six men relaxed. George
|
|||
|
|
48 and Lou had been sacked out for a few minutes; Parity called them forward. "Gentlemen. Flying time is about 14 hours.
|
|||
|
|
49 Given the winds aloft, we may trim an hour off that. Maybe. We'll be at ten thousand-not high enough to require oxygen"
|
|||
|
|
50 Delta cut in-"Only Bud for the pilot..."
|
|||
|
|
51 The flight was uneventful. Almost boring. George and Lou were still awake, and they were playing Poker. Bullets
|
|||
|
|
52 for chips. Parity was studying maps and weather reports, and handling the ComLink. The auto pilot was engaged, and
|
|||
|
|
53 there was little for the pilot to do. His mind wandered, thoughts drifting back...to another time...so long ago.
|
|||
|
|
54 He was with Marie. And Tommy. A picnic in the Maryland countryside. Marie, his wife. The afternoon was warm, they were
|
|||
|
|
55 beside a small lake;Tommy trying out the new fishing rod his father had brought home from his last mission. Three
|
|||
|
|
56 CIA agents lurked in the background. Watching. Protecting. All was peaceful...
|
|||
|
|
57 "Dad. DAD. Help..." In a second the big man was on his feet, yelling at Marie. Then the explosions. Deafening, ear
|
|||
|
|
58 shattering. On and on, and Marie was dead. Tommy was dead. "God, why didn't they kill me too?" The CIA men were gone.
|
|||
|
|
59 The crying, the despair, the liars at Langley. The needles. The escape. The hunt. From Virginia to a Chinese restaurant
|
|||
|
|
60 in Oklahoma to a pizza parlor in Mt. Shasta. The yellow Jaguar. Two men killed in a Seattle hotel. His old friend
|
|||
|
|
61 Wassir in South America. Phoenix, the Lear jet, a small island in the Pacific with the general, and finally Alaska.
|
|||
|
|
62 And now he was closing in. To find McKane. To kill him... And he waited...
|
|||
|
|
63
|
|||
|
|
64 Washington DC Saturday. 14:45
|
|||
|
|
65 The presidents apartment is on the second and third floors; luxiouriously appointed in a curious mixture of the
|
|||
|
|
66 old and the new. It was a place of solace, of escape, for the man whose desk was in the oval office. But today-on a
|
|||
|
|
67 Saturday afternoon, it was his prison. They sat at a small conference table, off the master bedroom. Of the 132 rooms
|
|||
|
|
68 in the White House, this was where the president went to be alone. Today he was not. Across from him sat the Secretary
|
|||
|
|
69 of Defense, and a Brigadier General of the U.S. Army. On the table was a yellow telephone, pads and pencils, and a
|
|||
|
|
70 large aluminum attache case. The lid was open. A yellow light glowed steadily. DEFCON 1. They waited...
|
|||
|
|
71 "Ed, do you really think we did the right thing?" The secretary looked up at the president. "If anyone can pull
|
|||
|
|
72 it off, these six men can"
|
|||
|
|
73 A soft beep; the General lifted the handset, listened, and replaced it. "They're entering Nicaraguan airspace..."
|
|||
|
|
74 Managua. Saturday. 13:45
|
|||
|
|
75 Managua center Whiskey Echo niner four reporting leaving Vera Cruz at seven. Request PRC and clearance"
|
|||
|
|
76 "Niner four, we have PRC. Welcome to Managua. Turn right to 165, you are 25 miles out, report at 15.."
|
|||
|
|
77 "Roger Manag.. enr.. Ma.g uh...yday ..Mayda.. ..ner four.. ing down..."
|
|||
|
|
78 Leo worked the frayed cord back and forth as Delta spoke into the microphone.
|
|||
|
|
79 "Niner four, are you declaring an emergency?" silence...
|
|||
|
|
80 "NOW!" The cargo door was pulled open, and as the lumbering DC-3 approached stall speed, three small wooden crates
|
|||
|
|
81 and the chunks of wreckage were thrown out. They exploded in a fireball of orange that sent clouds of acrid black
|
|||
|
|
82 smoke into the afternoon sky. Leveling off at treetop level, the pilot turned right, and headed for Bluefields...
|
|||
|
|
83 The hatch was secured, and the team of men gathered at the flight deck door for last minute instructions. Parity
|
|||
|
|
84 spoke;"We'll be setting down in about 50 minutes. Just before we stop rolling, get the planks out, and under the
|
|||
|
|
85 wheels, or we may not be able to get out.Then the nets-do the best you can. Use branches, leaves, whatever. Now-every
|
|||
|
|
86 one got their equipment checked?"
|
|||
|
|
87 And again, they waited...
|
|||
|
|
88 "How do you feel, Eric?"
|
|||
|
|
89 "Huh?"
|
|||
|
|
90 "Your'e about to destroy the man who killed your family... What then?"
|
|||
|
|
91 Delta Five looked at agent parity for a long moment, and replied "Here we go" He was not known for raising his voice,
|
|||
|
|
92 but this time he veritably screamed-"Hang on, we're goin' in"
|
|||
|
|
93 A tight right turn, the starboard wing dropping sharply, and the big Dakota flared back, and plopped onto the ground
|
|||
|
|
94 braking sharply, as five commandos threw out the heavy planks and dived after them, onto the grass. Parity-radio in
|
|||
|
|
95 hand trotted alongside the slowly rolling craft.."Goose it", he yelled into the radio. He was answered with a mighy
|
|||
|
|
96 roar from the big radial engines, and the DC-3 rolled onto the wooden beams, the n coughed to a stop. they were in.
|
|||
|
|
97
|
|||
|
|
98 Delta leaped out the cargo door, holding a parabolic microphone in his hand. He scanned the area, and announced softly
|
|||
|
|
99 "We're alone" The camouflage nets were quickly draped over the big plane, and the team crawled under the port wing
|
|||
|
|
100 for a quick rest. Parity was scanning NET frequencies on the COMM-LINK. "Nothing. No one even knows we're here"
|
|||
|
|
101 A sigh of relief, a few more minutes rest, and they were off.
|
|||
|
|
102 They fought their way through some of the densese jungle on planet Earth, Delta Five taking the lead. He knew the
|
|||
|
|
103 jungle. It was his friend. Mosquitos were everywhere, biting exposed arms and faces. They were ignored. Vines tuggd
|
|||
|
|
104 at feet. They were kicked away or slashed with machetes. Tempers flared in the opressive heat, but trained minds were
|
|||
|
|
105 controlled. Delta raised his hand. They froze. A Fer de Lance slithered along the ground in front of them. Then on
|
|||
|
|
106 again, thorns ripping at their arms; strange shriekink birds protesting their presence. And the relentless mosquitos.
|
|||
|
|
107 Again they froze at the signal from Delta. His hand stayed up, fingers motioning them forward, slowly... Then the
|
|||
|
|
108 finger pointed ahead and to the right. They all knew. The truck. They could hear the laboring engine a hundred yards
|
|||
|
|
109 or so, around a curve in the rutted dirt road. "Lets GO!". They crashed through the last few yards of ferns and vines
|
|||
|
|
110 to the road.Parity, Delta, and Lou dashed across to the other side, and dived into the dense foilage. Fellows, George
|
|||
|
|
111 and Leo sprinted up the road, and rolled under a clump of bushes. The truck approached... One shot from Leo's M-16
|
|||
|
|
112 took out the driver, and before anyone could react, Delta was on the running board, and pumped one round from his
|
|||
|
|
113 Walther into the guards head. Parity dove thru the window and took control of the rolling six-by, braking sharply.
|
|||
|
|
114 A curious face arreared fron behind the canvas back-quickly followed by empty hands, as he was four automatic weapons
|
|||
|
|
115 pointed at his face. Leo barked orders in stacatto Spanish, and a dozen Nicaraguans piled out, hands high in the air.
|
|||
|
|
116 "Alto. Attencion. Aqui, andele andele, "pointing to a small clearing at the edge of the narrow road. "Get their guns
|
|||
|
|
117 look for a radio. Get their jackets. MOVE!"
|
|||
|
|
118 Fellows looked at the others;"What do we do with them?" George Kellerman stepped forward and answered the question.
|
|||
|
|
119
|
|||
|
|
120 Fellows felt sick. He showed it. Delta Five felt sick. He didn't show it. "Let's go. Get the rest of those jackets.
|
|||
|
|
121 Check out the truck, we're moving out" Thirty seconds later they did.
|
|||
|
|
122
|
|||
|
|
123 the impact of what they had just done-of what they were about to do- overcame all other emotions. they were a team.
|
|||
|
|
124 a well oiled machine with a mission
|
|||
|
|
125
|
|||
|
|
126 Delta Five was in the passenger seat, Parity was driving, the others in the back, yelling above the rush of the wind
|
|||
|
|
127 as the six-by skidded along the rough road. Ther had donned the jackets of the slain Sandinistas, and again, checked
|
|||
|
|
128 their weapons. A few minutes later, the truck rolled to a stop alongside the Soviet aircraft. Six men leaped out, the
|
|||
|
|
129 Nicaraguan guards were cut down before they realized what was happening. The four Russians were reaching for their
|
|||
|
|
130 weapons, but were too late. Leo had an M-16 pointed at them. The weapons were dropped to the ground. Parity yelled at
|
|||
|
|
131 Lou" hey-look at this! Uzis! The damned Ruskies were carrying Uzis. Anyone got a camera?"
|
|||
|
|
132 A hidden smile, a flash of light. "Yup"
|
|||
|
|
133 The pressure was off, the men at ease. Lax. Laughing, cheering. Lax. "WHOA" "Lets get some guards posted, and get
|
|||
|
|
134 those crates on board" Parity was yelling as he listened to the voice from the portable radio. "We got company coming"
|
|||
|
|
135 Within minutes, the heavy crates were aboard the aircraft. "What do we do with the Russians?", asked Fellows?
|
|||
|
|
136 Delta replied;"We take them to Disneyland. They're defecting; right Ivan?"
|
|||
|
|
137 The furious Russians, hatred on their faces could only acquiesce; they clamored aboard, as the plane started to roll.
|
|||
|
|
138 Delta Five had many years flying experience, and with Fellows help figured out the controls. The soviet jet raced
|
|||
|
|
139 along the hard earth toward the free world...Ahead, they all saw it-the winking orange lights of automatic weapons
|
|||
|
|
140 firing at them. George and Lou were returning fire from the open cargo doors as the jet streaked past the jungle
|
|||
|
|
141 fighters. George screamed at them, questioning their ancestry as he emptied a clip in their midst. Leo cheered- "You
|
|||
|
|
142 got em, Ge---" and as he looked at Lou, fell silently out the door as the Earth dropped away beneath them...
|
|||
|
|
143 Calmly, sadly, he crawled forward. "We lost Leo..." He, Lou and Delta strapped on parachutes and prepared to jump.
|
|||
|
|
144 The silver craft with the huge red star on the tail climbed swiftly to 2000 feet, and circled the open field where
|
|||
|
|
145 was hidden the old Dakota. A quick farewell, and wishes of good luck, and they were gone. The stolen Soviet craft
|
|||
|
|
146 streaked into distance. Toward Puerto Rico. And freedom...
|
|||
|
|
147 Three men plopped onto the ground a dozen yards from the hidden Dakota, and-discarding the harnesses, geabbed their
|
|||
|
|
148 gear and sprinted to the plane. No time to hide the parachutes... The nets were pulled away, their gear stowed, and
|
|||
|
|
149 as Delta started the engines, they piled in and secured the hatch.
|
|||
|
|
150 Delta firewalled the throttles. Boosters on. Carb heat on. Mixture full rich. The mighty engines strained, shaking
|
|||
|
|
151 the craft violently. With maddening slowness, the big Dakota started to roll, slowly gathering speed. It slipped off
|
|||
|
|
152 the ends of the heavy planks, shuddered, and continued to roll. "C'MON baby, c'mon, they urged, and finally the Dakota
|
|||
|
|
153 was skimmimg along the field and was airborne, climbing and turning right to 165 degrees.
|
|||
|
|
154 Delta keyed the PA and announced;"Well be over the target in sixteen minutes. Get ready".
|
|||
|
|
155 The others worked swiftly, wrestling heavy drums of gasoline toward the now closed door. A stack of small wooden
|
|||
|
|
156 crates sat beside the drums.
|
|||
|
|
157 "Target it sight. Get ready..." the PA barked. The door was pulled open, Lou and George poised... "NOW!". The five
|
|||
|
|
158 drums were thrown out, and crashed into the south end of the large white Stucco complex. They burst on impact, soaking
|
|||
|
|
159 the walls with high octane aviation fuel. Delta whipped the DC-3 into a tight turn, and skimmed over the trees from
|
|||
|
|
160 the north. "NOW!" The las three barrels were rolled out, smashing into the north end. "Bullseye!" cried the pilot, as
|
|||
|
|
161 he again manhandled the big Dakota into it's final chandelle. Climbing, then easing back the yoke and dumping flaps
|
|||
|
|
162 to slow the craft... "NOW!" And the stack of wooden boxes fell earthward as the pilot firewalled the throttles.
|
|||
|
|
163 There was an enormous 'whump' that hurled the DC-3 a hundred feet into the air. Below-the entire complex was in flames.
|
|||
|
|
164 There were explosions everywhere, and gigantic clouds of black smoke filled the sky.
|
|||
|
|
165 The red and white DC-3 climbed swiftly, heading out over the Caribbean Sea. George came up with the few last cans
|
|||
|
|
166 of Budweiser, and the three man crew gulped long swallows, washing the dust from three dry throats. Everyone was
|
|||
|
|
167 strangely calm, exhillerated, exhausted...For several minutes no one spoke. Then George looked up, sniffing the air.
|
|||
|
|
168 "What the..OH MY GOD, his eyes riveted on something in the hold... One small wooden box had been overlooked. Grey
|
|||
|
|
169 smoke seeped from the corners. Lou saw it and the two men dived into to hold, trying frantically to get it out the
|
|||
|
|
170 hold door...
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
172
|
|||
|
|
173
|
|||
|
|
174 AGENTS PARITY AND FELLOWS STOOD SILENTLY BEFORE THE PRESIDENT. "RECONNAISSANCE FOUND NOTHING. NO TRACE...
|
|||
|
|
175 "NO PARACHUTES?"
|
|||
|
|
176 THE PRESIDENT LOOKED AWAY FROM THE TWO MEN;"I'M SORRY..."
|
|||
|
|
177 HE CONTINUED;"WHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR THE FREE WORLD MAY WELL HAVE SAVED THAT WORLD. THIS OFFICE, THIS COUNTRY OWES
|
|||
|
|
178 YOU ETERNAL GRATITUDE...I ONLY WISH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE COULD KNOW OF YOUR HEROISM..."
|
|||
|
|
179
|
|||
|
|
180 Parity and Fellows walked through the wide ornamental iron gates of the White House, and onto the boulevard.
|
|||
|
|
181 Birds were singing; the Cherry trees blosomming. Fellows spoke;"Well, let's go find Ian...

209 "Parity?" Fellows tendered the name in question form. Both men, despite
|
|||
|
|
210 their years of training and conditioning, where just one notch above shock
|
|||
|
|
211 after all that had happened in the last 36 hours.
|
|||
|
|
212 "Yes Fellows?" The plane trip to Puerto Rico, the depositing of the
|
|||
|
|
213 defecting Russians, the delivery of the prize, the congratulations from the
|

|
|
214 local NET representative, the radio message: George, Lou, and Delta V: contact
|
|||
|
|
215 lost, NET search parties turning up nothing, the red-eye to Washington, a talk

|

217 during the past day-and-a-half.
|
|||
|
|
218 "I was just wondering... thinking about everyone, especially Delta. I
|
|||
|
|
219 liked him, rogue that he was. He thinks, er, thought like we do. Action is the
|
|||
|
|
220 name of the game. The shakers and movers live at the crest Parity. We live
|
|||
|
|
221 at the crest."
|
|||
|
|
222 "And sometimes the crest bucks Fellows, like this mission. Four good
|
|||
|
|
223 men lost. Great men, gone, in the service of something greater. It may be
|
|||
|
|
224 a crest Fellows, but it has the qualities ofn abyss too. I don't care
|
|||
|
|
225 what the NET books say, I am hurting right now. We nabbed the laser. We
|
|||
|
|
226 torched McKane's HQ and he was 85 percent likely to be inside. And we lost
|
|||
|
|
227 Delta and the others. Who won?"
|
|||
|
|
228 "Parity, you know I hate statistics. As for who won, I can't say. I
|
|||
|
|
229 know we lost a lot, but the other side lost something too. They suffered."
|
|||
|
|
230 The talk had led them to a corner. Instead of answering, Parity hailed
|
|||
|
|
231 a cab. As the big yellow cut two lanes to reach them, Parity turned to
|
|||
|
|
232 Fellows and said, "We are going to HQ. We've got to figure out what has
|
|||
|
|
233 happened to Ian."
|
|||
|
|
234 "Where to boys?" the burly taxi hearder asked.
|
|||
|
|
235 "To the airport James. And there's an extra sawbuck if you can make
|
|||
|
|
236 it in 15 minutes." Fellows countered.
|
|||
|
|
237 "No problem, but my name's not James, it's Eric."
|
|||
|
|
238 "Eric?" Fellows and Parity exchanged a glance.
|
|||
|
|
239 "We suffered too Fellows."

|
|
363 1986. Another year. A growing uneasiness. The feeling has been coming on for several years now. Mostly since
|
|||
|
|
364 1980. It was only last year that I finally figured it out. I realized that I was only a mortal, wi
|
|||
|
|
365 weaknessess, vulnerable to many things hidden and unseen. It's hard to realize that you aren't a god anymore.
|
|||
|
|
366 Another year without a job. These part time fill in jobs are the pits. At least the last job lasted 7 years,
|
|||
|
|
367 giving a false sense of permanency. Unfortunately, the company moved out of Oregon, following many other
|
|||
|
|
368 companies on a mass exodus to greender pastrues. The other jobs were never permnent, but at least they usu
|
|||
|
|
369 lasted 1-2 years. Now, if a job lasts 1-2 weeks, I feel lucky. If I were the
|
|||
|
|
370 quiting type, I guess I would have checked out of here and moved to parts unknown long ago. Seems like nothing
|
|||
|
|
371 makes much sense anymore. But the thought of quitting makes me ill. Before I do something like that, I plan
|
|||
|
|
372 to be on top again. I don't want people to be able to say that I couldn't handle it.
|
|||
|
|
373 1969. A fresh idealistic teenager emerges for the coocon of high school and makes a choice. He may
|
|||
|
|
374 understand the reasons for a 'police-action,' but he knowns that his duty is clear. Down to the enlis
|
|||
|
|
375 office. The recruiter says don't worry, only the draftees go to Nam. December 1969, "I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane"
|
|||
|
|
376 makes it to the top of the charts. How appropriate. January 1970 am in a foreign country, at war with i
|
|||
|
|
377 Due to a striving for excellance in everything I do, have had training in 4 different schools. Cooking fo
|
|||
|
|
378 rating, S.E.R.E. school, S.E.A.L training, and a political indoctrination school tht has no name and isn't ever
|
|||
|
|
379 mentioned in records anywhere. I excell in all of these things, as I believe. I believe that God is on the side
|
|||
|
|
380 of righteouness, that I am fighting for my country. The Domino theory is sound,and the Communist threat must be
|
|||
|
|
381 met head on and defeated.
|
|||
|
|
382 It is is 1970 that I find out that I am a god. We are all gods. We have te power to create, to save,
|
|||
|
|
383 to destroy. The earth teaches us the 'human' virtues. The long night, deep in no mans land, alternately hunted
|
|||
|
|
384 and pursued after a successfull mission teaches fear. The days of waiting, waiting for the one shot to complete
|
|||
|
|
385 the assignment all the while watching the jungle creatures and insects going about their destinies, ignoring the
|
|||
|
|
386 god in their midst, teaches humility. The wounded and the damned (natives) teaches pity and compassion. It
|
|||
|
|
387 hard not to have feelings after looking at napalm victims, or the left-overs after a VC recru
|
|||
|
|
388 a small village during the night. After watching a two-stepper finally crawl away from your warm leg afte
|
|||
|
|
389 hours of waiting teaches relief. The sound of blood gurgling out of a friends sucking chest wound teach
|
|||
|
|
390 hope, and hate. This must be a cheap lesson, as it is taught over and over again. My one trip into Saig
|
|||
|
|
391 teaches shame. The amount of thieves, black marketers, drug pushers, pimps and hookers amazes me. The migh
|
|||
|
|
392 US Military can sure make changes where ever it goes.
|
|||
|
|
393 I am the best. I have more successful missions than anyone in IV Corp AO. I become the Spade Ace,
|
|||
|
|
394 minor legend. A full division hunted me for a month, but couldn't catch me. I left them with no officers when
|
|||
|
|
395 I finally made it back to my unit.
|
|||
|
|
396 I have taught medicine and sanitation to villages, prevented wholesale deaths from plague, diptheria, and
|
|||
|
|
397 cholera. I have saved more children from death and starvation then could go to a grade school.
|
|||
|
|
398 Worry was one object lesson I won't forget. March 18th, I was hooking up wth a platoon for extraction
|
|||
|
|
399 made it, but the platoon is ambushed and nearly wiped out 20 minutes later. Two weeks as a POW, I make my
|
|||
|
|
400 escape. An unexpected Arc Light mission nearly kills us all, but five of us make for the hills. We le
|
|||
|
|
401 and 10 VC dead. Sick, weakened, and bleeding from the ears and nose, we make our way back, followed by the
|
|||
|
|
402 (Opps)--for the hills. We leave 4 US and 10 VC dead. Sick, weakened, and bleeding from the ears and nose, we
|
|||
|
|
403 make our way back, followed by the 15 VC survivors. The worst thing (for me) is that we are all quite d
|
|||
|
|
404 For the army boys, the worst thing is our situation. No food, no radio, no medicine, no friendles in our ar
|
|||
|
|
405 I wish the US Army would give better training to its own. These guys are completely defeated. After 4 weeks
|
|||
|
|
406 we make it back. Only lost one boy, to dysentery.
|
|||
|
|
407 I get a vacation, 3 days rest and real food, and then out again as a village advisor. But I guess t
|
|||
|
|
408 enough for now. If I get drunk enough again, and feel like this, maybe I will
|
|||
|
|
409 continue, maybe not. Sorry to whine in public.

448 Farley was struggling to forget that his other mission was postponed. He was
|
|||
|
|
449 also trying to drive at the same time. It was difficult for him, just then,
|
|||
|
|
450 to do both at the same time. James might have noticed, but didn't say a word.
|
|||
|
|
451 Streets flew by, turns taken, signals obeyed, all while Farley sat in
|
|||
|
|
452 something like a trance. At last, they arrived at a downtown parking structure
|
|||
|
|
453 somewhere near Ione Plaza. On the lowest level underground, a portion of
|
|||
|
|
454 a wall pivoted to provide a one-lane tunnel under the city.
|
|||
|
|
455 Later, both agents were in the regional headquarters of NET. Farley went to
|
|||
|
|
456 his desk and tapped a sequence on the COMSET mounted there.
|
|||
|
|
457 <Agent E.F. Farley: Report to Conference Room 10B at 1700. A. Lovelace has
|
|||
|
|
458 your instructions.>
|
|||
|
|
459 James asked, "May I?" and tapped his own sequence.
|
|||
|
|
460 <Agent J. Garret: Report to Conference Room 10B at 1700. A. Lovelace has
|
|||
|
|
461 your instructions.>
|
|||
|
|
462 "Hey, looks like we're gonna work together this time 'round, Eugene. I
|
|||
|
|
463 Wonder who else'll show?"
|
|||
|
|
464 Farley glanced at his watch. 4:46pm. "We'll find out. 'Further up,
|
|||
|
|
465 Further in!'" he said as he moved toward the lift.

470 "Baaaa."

487 I'm ready to go. You can walk out that barn door if you like, but I warn you,
|

|
|
488 there's plenty of other sheep in the pasture. I can always get it someplace

541 Hi All, Tuck here. It looks like things are too quiet here. Let's
|
|||
|
|
542 stir things up. (Call me a twit if you want to, but all I want is some
|
|||
|
|
543 interplay of ideas.) What do you think about PRAYER IN SCHOOLS. ?
|
|||
|
|
544 1) Is in morally correct to brainwash young minds with this religious prattle?
|
|||
|
|
545 2) Can America survive this governmental support of immorality?
|
|||
|
|
546 3) Will the greatest nation on Earth rot because the government has taken
|
|||
|
|
547 away the moral support that prayer can offer? In the one place where
|
|||
|
|
548 children are ready to learn.
|
|||
|
|
549 4) Can the Supreme Court continue in their stuggle to uphold the rights of
|
|||
|
|
550 the people, even with several possible new appointments?
|
|||
|
|
551 Anybody willing to take the challenge? Have I offended you?
|
|||
|
|
552 Well, your only chance to fight back is right here. Let's here what you
|
|||
|
|
553 have to say. I want your opinion.

|||

|

|
|
556 To the Fried Turkey above: Perhaps if you were willing to assert something
|
|||
|
|
557 in particular with the intention of eliciting comments, you might have more
|
|||
|
|
558 success. But when you attempt to antagonize people with a collage of contra
|
|||
|
|
559 dicting generalizations that obviate your lack of committment, you only attempt
|
|||
|
|
560 to initiate eternal ambiguity amongst modemers who have long ago learned to
|
|||
|
|
561 ignore neophytes who have no convictions. Grow up, sonny, and when you have
|
|||
|
|
562 something to say, perhaps Daddy will let you borrow the keys to the modem again.

564 The day had been hazy and THOR had felt sluggish throughout his trip.
|
|||
|
|
565 Finally finding a place to rest, he walked into the Inn called Backwater.
|
|||
|
|
566 Here he found tale makers and sooth sayers galore but also THOR was troubled
|
|||
|
|
567 for he found many who spoke in tongues unfamiliar to him. THOR had been most
|
|||
|
|
568 everywhere on this blue planet but he had never seen the likes of what he saw
|
|||
|
|
569 at the BACKWATER. What was wrong with these travelers that they did not want
|
|||
|
|
570 to share their tales? Why must they cover their words with codes and gibberish
|
|||
|
|
571 when all that THOR could see were as himself, travelers wishing to speak with
|
|||
|
|
572 the others.Setting his great frame down into a chair, THOR put down his bag
|
|||
|
|
573 and the great hammer. I will watch and see what will be, he thought to him
|
|||
|
|
574 self. THOR looked about the INN for a friendly or familiar face.

|

581 isn't it? There is now way, however, that I am not going to get my licks in
|
|||
|
|
582 about prayer in schools. If there is a little Jesus freak in school, there
|
|||
|
|
583 are so many times a day he could enact his rites that there is no need for a
|
|||
|
|
584 mandated prayer.
|
|||
|
|
585 The only reason I can see for this official event is to bring the United States
|

586 in line as a Religious State. Something candidate for senate Joe Lutz and the

587 (Im)Moral Major(Minor)ity are all in favor of. What do you think, should we
|

|
|
588 live in an echo of the Spanish Inquisition, with Christian cops beating up the
|

589 aagnostics, and the Jews, or should we have a nation free of jihad stained

598 Ah... I remember the days when Pam would clean the tables up back here. Now she's not even seen in the Inn these days.
|
|||
|
|
599 I wonder what has happened to her, why has she given up on BW? though I guess I can understand what with all the twit activity
|
|||
|
|
600 in the past year, I'm amazed that as many of the good partrons have stuck around that have. Yet even so time has taken its
|
|||
|
|
601 toll. Even the venerable Piper seems to be in permenant lurk mode these days. Perhaps it is no longer possible to have an
|
|||
|
|
602 open and free forum of this type. BBSing seems to have become discovered by the great unwashed masses, and as a result has
|
|||
|
|
603 deteriorated to the level of bickering, slander, abuse of the english language, vandlism, vengful spite, and just plain twitish
|
|||
|
|
604 behavor in general. Not that it was free from such activities in the past, but it seems like that has become the only activity
|
|||
|
|
605 that has grown in the last year, while the marvalous stories, debates, and generl communications have deminished.
|
|||
|
|
606 Perhaps it is that BBSing has lost its glamor to those who are in the vangaurd of such things and they have moved on to other
|
|||
|
|
607 activities. But where are they? Where have they gone...what activities holds their intrest now? The Innkeeper is here, I saw him
|
|||
|
|
608 coming out of the wine celler the other day. The piper has been noding in front of the great fireplace for some time. Some of
|
|||
|
|
609 the more adventurous types have swaped tales with each other at the main tables. Yet the tellers of great fantasy have long been
|
|||
|
|
610 absent from the system. Will they ever return? Has that part of the life of BW come to an end? Has it come to this, to be
|
|||
|
|
611 discarded, given to the children to play with and be crumped and tossed aside as nothing? Is this the end of BW?
