Alas poor Goldman I knew him well.Chief? You think you're going to make Chief some day?
You ask what killed him?
Of demerits they tell.

And Barb could always consider moonlighting as a model, like this NYPD cop (Samantha Sepulveda).Bottom line is, with any luck at all, you two will be set for life.”

An excellent story, Windar ad Barb!

She claims that criminals think she's so hot they volunteer to be arrested, rather than running or resisting. Too bad Donnelly and Gerhardt hated women. . No such luck for Detective Moore.
An excellent story, Windar and Barb!
and the book they were going to write (or, to be precise, that was going to be written for them by the noted Irish American author, Sean McNeil) was a hot property.
“More importantly,” Debbie added, “I’ve been talking with Chinese publishers
“I’m doing OK now, Sean,” she replied. “Trauma surgeons are wizards these days, as Stan said. Many of them worked in Iraq and Afghanistan and a few holes in the hands and feet are nothing compared to what they saw there.”
But Hollywood is interested.” Stan wondered who would play him in a movie. He did like George Clooney.

A wonderful detective story, Windar.
And Barb's contributions add a lot to it.
I thought it would be wiser not to get into the origin of the wood and just stick with who bought it.View attachment 505520 I only hope that, in this book, you could mention that the wood'cross was coming from the Premium French Cucifixion Wood of Messaline ...

Bit late to the story, but congratulations on a brilliant ending windar.
Pity they couldn't find any forensics to link the two to the scene, but that's the problem with academics----too damn clever.
And now Barb's got a taste for it, she'll be much happier hanging out in the fresh air at the cabin with the good view, rather than inside a dirty building.
But I did make a French connection, especially for you. They got to tell their story over a very lovely French meal.
As for French as a world language, since it's the only one I sort of speak (I don't count English, in which I'm incoherent) I wish it were #3. However, it's only #8 on the list of most spoken. The top 3 are Mandarin, English and Hindi/Urdu.
But after Chinese, the next language the book will be translated into is of course Latin. Donnelly and Gerhart will do the translation. After all, they will have plenty of time on their hands.
I am very cautious of those language lists, there is an awful lot of goalpost shifting depending on which point the assembler of the list wants to prove. Mandarin is one of those languages that is not even spoken by most of China while French, Spanish and of course English are spoken at least somewhat by lots of people who do not customarily think in those tongues.
So when talking of world languages I would agree with Messa given the large number of Franco-phone countries. Now if you want to talk about spoken languages that is another matter . Of course if you want to discuss languages that people can read well that is again something else.
Interesting aside... English is the official language of air traffic control worldwide while French is the official language of the UN...

French is one of six official languages of the UN. A delegate may speak in any of the six official languages and the speech will be simultaneously translated into all the other languages.I was unaware that French was THE official language of the UN.
I figured so. Tree slightly overstated the case then.French is one of six official languages of the UN. A delegate may speak in any of the six official languages and the speech will be simultaneously translated into all the other languages.
