@dyslexia,
So do I dys. I had a few discussions with Frank and I must say he was more interesting than most. He once claimed he'd had a threesome with what I assumed were two well-travelled ladies. It would be something of a stretch to think they were two chaste virgins. It never entered my head to think he was just boasting. I take every word on A2K as the God's honest gospel truth so help me.
I understand that a lot of the detail is missing like when flying off to some exotic location to impress the neighbours with one's capacity to pay and satisfy one's urge to "see the world" always misses out getting through the security cordons hoping somebody doesn't take it into their heads to have a shufti up the cakehole with a little narrow-beamed torch such as one of those suitable for reading under the bedclothes. A lot of stuff. Too silly to discuss really. The 24 hour cycle.
And the detail was missing in Frank's information.
He was stationed in England during the war and had got a mild hunkering for the English way of life. He tried to invite himself to my pub once.
It was a shame that he left A2K in disgust at the tactics of those atheist evangelicals. I was used to it. I think he was shocked to discover that people he knew to be mature American citizens could be that stupid and bigoted as to not see, or pretend not to see, the obvious and irrefutable point he was making. With me not being American it doesn't shock me as much. It makes one wonder about the backstage scene in the logistical operation down in the Gulf of Mexico. Especially if there are geologists down there who farmerman has trained.
I miss Bernie and Lola too although the latter was getting a bit shirty at me shortly before they departed for Portland. Or when they were in Portland. We did have some fun though did Lola and I. Did you read Bernie's description of carking it? There was some detail in that. He could write a bit could blatham.
