It is Wednesday Story Day time again. This week’s episode is brought to you by an excellent blog written by Gwen Plano. Her blog is one where you can visit with the expectation of being inspired. Visit. You will be glad you did. http://www.gwenplano.com/blog-reflections.
Last week we witnessed Ralph Worthe starting to come apart at the seams. He openly stated he was using his family as a shield. We need to go back and find out where he will lead us.
“Mr. Worth I think you are unraveling.”
“Lightfoot if you say that again I may have to pop you one.”
“That would leave one less hostage.”
“So who cares I have three more.”
“Ralph Worthe. You better get a grip here.”
“Trudy. I want you to sit down and shut up.”
“Daddy. You can’t talk to mother that way.”
“Alexis you need to be quiet.”
“I will not be quiet. You are making us very upset. Ben, why are you just sitting there?”
“Uh. Cause he has the gun.”
“That’s right sonny. I have the gun. Y’all better just get used to the idea that you can’t do much about what I need to do.”
“You are going to die, Ralph. You know that don’t you?”
“I’m going to tell you one more time to shut up.”
“Is that your phone ringing.”
“I’m not going to answer it.”
“What if they have met your demands?”
“Okay. hello?”
“Mr. Worthe. This is the commander.”
“Yes. what is it?”
“We are all set. The SUV’s are here, and the jet is waiting for you..”
“Okay. I’m coming out.”
Will Ralph make it to the jet? (or even out the front door) Tune in next week to find out. In the meantime visit Gwen Plano at http://www.gwenplano.com/blog-reflections.

I’m sensing a conclusion or maybe a character thinning 🙂 Fingers crossed for Alexis; she is showing signs of wisdom.

That was quick. Wonder what the trick is. Ejector sears in the SUV?

To prove how exhausted I am, my mind went to alcohol and then a sudden fear that you were warning me about leaving the house.

Is this keeping quiet the first sign of intelligence from Ben?

Hilarious. Ralph coming apart at the seams is one of the funniest things to happen yet. He seems to have the IQ of a squash. I think Ben has the right idea. Of course, his IQ isn’t much higher. Funny stuff, John. This would be great as a Saturday Night Live skit. 😀 — Suzanne

Ben is finally showing some good sense. I hope the marksman has good aim. Although, if there has to be collateral damage, might I suggest you keep it in the family?

There’s nothing like a lot of people talking at once to disturb a person’s thought processes. I imagine old Ralph could be so distracted by the good news that anybody could snatch his gun, wrangle him to the floor, and hold him until he’s captured!

Worthe is leaving alone? Without a hostage? Without a shield. Hmm.
The question is what kind? 😀 😀 😛
I feel a conclusion as well.

Ha! Love the opening joke-photo. That is indeed a horrible feeling. And since I wasn’t able to get back to the story yesterday, I’m more easily confused than usual. LOL
Back to the point. Oh my… I feel a whiplash inducing twist on the way!
I hope you had a wonderful Wednesday, and a thriving Thursday today. Mega hugs.
