3:10 am	@@@@@ The silence on the phone was a silent @@@@@ The silence on the phone was a silent scream“They’re different,” said Alex finally, his voice choked“They’re different!” “A trap,” said the Deuxième veteran“God in heaven, it’s a trap!” Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 265 26 Twice Bourne had passed the dark, quiet row of old stone houses on the boulevard Lefebvre in the concrete backwater of the fifteenth arrondissementHe then doubled back to the rue d’Alésia and found a sidewalk caféThe outdoor tables, their candles flickering under glass, were peopled mostly by gesturing, argumentative students from the nearby Sorbonne and MontparnasseIt was nearing ten o’clock and the aproned waiters were growing irritable; the majority of customers were not full of largess, either in their hearts or in their pocketsJason wanted only a strong espresso, but the perpetual scowl on the face of the approaching gar?on convinced him he would get mud if he ordered only the coffee, so he added the most expensive brandy he could recall by name As the waiter returned to the service bar, Jason pulled out his small notebook and ballpoint pen, shutting his eyes for a moment, then opening them and sketching out everything he could envision from the row of houses on his inner screenThere were three structures of two attached houses each, separated by two narrow alleywaysEach double complex was three stories high, each front entrance reached by climbing a steep flight of brick steps, and at either end of the row were vacant lots covered with rubble, the remains of demolished adjacent buildingsThe address of the Jackal’s buried telephone number—the address was available in the underground tunnels solely for repair purposes—was the final structure on the right, and it took no imagination to know he occupied the entire building, if not the entire row Carlos was the consummate self-protector, so one had to assume that his Paris command post would be a fortress, employing every human and electronic security device that loyalty and high technology could provideAnd the seemingly isolated, all but deserted, section of the outlying fifteenth arrondissement served his purposes far better than any crowded section of the cityFor that reason, Bourne had first paid a drunken tramp to walk with him during his initial foray past the houses, he himself limping unsteadily in the shadows beside his companion; and for his second appraisal, he had hired a middle-aged whore as his cover, with no limp or stagger in his gaitHe knew the terrain now, for all the good it did him, but it was the beginning of the endHe swore himself to that! The waiter arrived with his espresso and the cognac, and only when Jason placed a hundredfranc note on the table, accompanied by a wave of his hand, did the man’s hostile countenance move to neutral ground “Is there a pay phone nearby?” asked Bourne, removing an additional ten-franc note “Down the street, fifty, sixty meters,” replied the waiter, his eyes on the new money “Nothing closer?” Jason peeled off another note, twenty francs“I’m calling right here within a few blocks “Come with me,” said the aproned gar?on, gingerly picking up the franc notes and leading Bourne through the open doors of the café to a cashier seated on high at the far end of the restaurantThe gaunt, sallow-faced woman looked annoyed; obviously she assumed that Bourne was a discontented customer “Let him use your telephone,” said the waiter “Why?” spat out the harri (1 Comment |Comment on this)

3:10 am	@@@@@Any day you drop your bod onto the conveyor @@@@@Any day you drop your bod onto the conveyor belt of modern medicine - especially as it's practiced in a city overstuffed with elderly, often ailing winter visitors - you're in for a long dayWe were there until six They did indeed want to admit Wireman I spent most of my time in those purgatorial waiting rooms where the magazines are old, the cushions on the chairs are thin, and the TV is always bolted high in one cornerI sat, I listened to worried conversations compete with the TV-cackle, and every now and then I went to one of the areas where cell phones were allowed and used Wireman's to call JackWas she good? She was terrificThey were playing ParcheesiThen reconfiguring China TownThe third time they were 404 eating sandwiches and watching OprahThe fourth time she was sleeping "Tell him she's made all her restroom calls," Jack saidWireman was pleased to hear itAnd the conveyor belt trundled slowly along Three waiting rooms, one outside General Admitting, where Wireman refused to even take a clipboard with a form on it - possibly because he couldn't read it (I filled in the necessary information), one outside Neurology, where I met both Gene Hadlock, Elizabeth's doctor, and a pallid, goateed fellow named Herbert PrincipeHadlock claimed that Principe was the best neurologist in Sarasota Principe did not deny this, nor did he say shucks The last waiting room was on the second floor, home of Big Fancy EquipmentHere Wireman was taken not to Magnetic Resonance Imaging, a process with which I was very familiar, but instead to XRay at the far end of the hall, a room I imagined to be dusty and neglected in this modern age Wireman gave me his Mary medallion to hold and I was left to wonder why Sarasota's best neurologist 405 would resort to such old-fashioned technologyNo one bothered to enlighten me The TVs in all three waiting rooms were tuned to Channel 6, where again and again I was subjected to The Picture: Candy Brown with his hand locked on Tina Garibaldi's wrist, her face turned up to his, frozen in a look that was terrible because anyone brought up in a halfway decent home knew, in his or her heart, exactly what it meantYou told your children be careful, very careful, that a stranger could mean danger, and maybe they believed it, but kids from nice homes had also been raised to believe safety was their birthright So the eyes said Sure, mister, tell me what I'm supposed to doThe eyes said You're the adult, I'm the kid, so tell me what you wantThe eyes said I've been raised to respect my elders (Comment on this)

It was obviously directed toward Hearn, who murmured something into the receiver and hung up after staring thoughtfully at Dalleson "Did you give those papers to Hobart?" he asked Hearn "What the hell you been doing since then?" Hearn grinned and lit a cigarette"Nothing in particular, Major There was a subdued titter from a few of the clerks in the tent Dalleson stood up, surprised to find himself suddenly in a rage, "I don't want any of your goddam lip, HearnIt was bad to reprimand an officer in front of enlisted men"Go over and help Leach For several seconds Hearn stood motionless, and then he nodded, sauntered carelessly over to Leach's desk, and sat down tiffany toggle heart beside (Comment on this)

It had to be Binky’s—the couple across the hall we’re traveling with—he must have copped it from that lovely Beau-Rivage in LausanneThe rotten theft is bad enough, but to have given it to that swine is unforgivable!” In seconds, Jason had grabbed the Jackal’s weapon and crashed his way into the room across the hall, immediately knowing that “Binky” deserved more admiration than the brigadier afforded him He lay on the floor bleeding from knife wounds across his stomach omega moon watch and throat “I can’t reach anyone!” screamed the woman with thinning gray hair; she was on her knees above the victim, weeping hysterically“He fought like a madman—somehow he knew that priest wouldn’t fire his gun!” “Hold the skin together wherever you can,” yelled Bourne, looking over at the telephoneIt was intact! He ran to it, and instead of calling the front desk or the operator, he dialed the numbers for the suite “Krupkin?” cried Alex “No, me! First: Carlos is on the staircase—the hallway I went into!

3:10 am	@@@@@Yates’s accompanying them and spending the @@@@@Yates’s accompanying them and spending the evening at the ParsonageYates, having never been with those who thought much of parental claims, or family confidence, could not perceive that anything of the kind was necessary; and therefore, thanking them, said, “he preferred remaining where he was, that he might pay his respects to the old gentleman handsomely since he was come; and besides, he did not think it would be fair by the others to have everybody run away Fanny was just beginning to collect herself, and to feel that if she staid longer behind it might seem disrespectful, when this point was settled, and being commissioned with the brother and sister’s apology, saw them preparing to go as she quitted the room herself to perform the dreadful duty of appearing before her uncle Too soon did she find herself at the drawing-room door; and after pausing a moment for what she knew would not come, for a courage which the outside of no door had ever supplied to her, she turned the lock in desperation, and the lights of the drawing-room, and all the collected family, were before herAs she entered, her own name caught her earSir Thomas was at that moment looking round him, and saying, “But where is Fanny? Why do not I see my little Fanny?”— and on perceiving her, came forward with a kindness which astonished and penetrated her, calling her his dear Fanny, kissing her affectionately, and observing with decided pleasure how much she was grown! Fanny knew not how to feel, nor where to lookShe was quite oppressedHe had never been so kind, so very kind to her in his life His manner seemed changed, his voice was quick from the agitation of joy; and all that had been awful in his dignity seemed lost in tenderness He led her nearer the light and looked at her again—inquired particularly after her health, and then, correcting himself, observed that he need not inquire, for her appearance spoke sufficiently on that pointA fine blush having succeeded the previous paleness of her face, he was justified in his belief of her equal improvement in health and beautyHe inquired next after her family, especially William: and his kindness altogether was such as made her reproach herself for loving him so little, and thinking his return a misfortune; and 155 Jane Austen when, on having courage to lift her eyes to his face, she saw that he was grown thinner, and had the burnt, fagged, worn look of fatigue and a hot climate, every tender feeling was increased, and she was miserable in considering how much unsuspected vexation was probably ready to burst on him Sir Thomas was indeed the life of the party, who at his suggestion now seated themselves round the fireHe had the best right to be the talker; and the delight of his sensations in being again in his own house, in the centre of his family, after such a separation, made him communicative and chatty in a very unusual degree; and he was ready to give every information as to his voyage, and answer every question of his two sons almost before it was putHis business in Antigua had latterly been prosperously rapid, and he came directly from Liverpool, having had an opportunity of making his passage thither in a private vessel, instead of waiting for the packet; and all the little particulars of his proceedings and events, his arrivals and departures, were most promptly delivered, as he sat by Lady Bertram and looked with heartfelt satisfaction on the faces around him—interrupting himself more than once, however, to remark on his good fortune in finding them all at home—coming unexpectedly as he did—all collected together exactly as he could have wished, but dared not depend onRushworth was not forgotten: a most friendly reception and warmth of hand-shaking had already met him, and with pointed attention he was now included in the objects most intimately connected with MansfieldThere was nothing disagreeable in MrRushworth’s appearance, and Sir Thomas was liking him already By not one of the circle was he listened to with such unbroken, unalloyed enjoyment as by his wife, who was really extremely happy to see him, and whose feelings were so warmed by his sudden arrival as to place her nearer agitation than she had been for the last twenty yearsShe had been almost fluttered for a few minutes, and still remained so sensibly animated as to put away her work, move Pug from her side, and give all her attention and all the rest of her sofa to her husbandShe had no anxieties for anybody to cloud her pleasure: her own time had been irreproachably spent during his absence: she had done a great deal of carpet-work, and made many 156 Mansfield Park yards of fringe; and she would have answered as freely for the good conduct and useful pursuits of all the young people as for her own It was so agreeable to her to see him again, and hear him talk, to have her ear amused and her whole comprehension filled by his narratives, that she began particularly to feel how dreadfully she must have missed him, and how impossible it would have been for her to bear a lengthened absenceNorris was by no means to be compared in happiness to her sisterNot that she was incommoded by many fears of Sir Thomas’s disapprobation when the present state of his house should be known, for her judgment had been so blinded that, except by the instinctive caution with which she had whisked away MrRushworth’s pink satin cloak as her brother-in-law entered, she could hardly be said to shew any sign of alarm; but she was vexed by the manner of his retur (Comment on this)

3:25 am	@@@@@Then there was a soundWe weren't sure if we @@@@@Then there was a soundWe weren't sure if we imagined itMaybe it was a coyote, after allDid we want that? We didn't knowWe lost our train of thought and forgot the sound Something shook us, pulled our numb arms, dragged at themWe couldn't form the words to wish that it would be quick now, but that was our hopeWe waited for the cut of teethInstead, the dragging turned to pushing, and we felt our face roll toward the sky It poured over our face–wet, cool, and impossibleIt dribbled over our eyes, washing the grit from themOur eyes fluttered, blinking against the dripping We did not care about the grit in our eyesOur chin arched up, desperately searching, our mouth opening and closing with blind, pathetic weakness, like a newly hatched bird We thought we heard a sigh And then the water flowed into our mouth, and we gulped at it and choked on itThe water vanished while we choked, and our weak hands grasped out for itA flat, heavy thumping pounded our back until we could breatheOur hands kept clutching the air, looking for the water We definitely heard a sigh this time Something pressed to our cracked lips, and the water flowed againWe guzzled, careful not to inhale it this timeNot that we cared if we choked, but we did not want the water taken away again We drank until our belly stretched and achedThe water trickled to a stop, and we cried out hoarsely in protest (Comment on this)

3:12 am	@@@@@There was no way to keep out the water which @@@@@There was no way to keep out the water which dripped quickly through every rip and seam of the tent fabric and blew in through the entrance like successive waves of surfThe rain trench had filled already, was flowing over onto their beddingGallagher gathered up their blankets, and the three men squatted under the flapping ponchos, trying to hold them down, and failing miserably in the attempt to keep their feet dryOutside the water had risen in great puddles which kept spreading and sending out tentacles like enormous amoeba absorbing the earth"Goddam, goddam," Wilson said Goldstein and Ridges were completely wetWhen the rain had started, they had got out of their tent and pounded down all the stakesGoldstein had crammed the blankets into the rubber bag of his jungle pack, and he crouched on his knees now inside the tent, trying to hold it down in the wind"This is terrible," he shoutedHis ugly dumpy face was covered with drops of water, and his straight sandy hair had plastered itself in a spiral about his head"Nuttin' to do but wait," he shouted backHis voice was lost in the wind, and Goldstein could hear nothing but "wait," which had a long wailing quality that pebbled his flesh with a sudden shudderThere seemed nothing in the universe but the gray violence roaring about themGoldstein felt his arm wrenched cruelly as the ridgepole lashed upward with an abrupt vicious snapHe was so wet that his green fatigues looked black The bottom of the ocean would look like this, he told himselfThere were subterranean storms that he had read about, and this must be like themApart from his awe, and his concern that the tent should remain up, Goldstein was watching the storm with a fascinated interestProbably the world had been something like this when it first began to cool, he thought, and felt a deep excitement as if he were witnessing creationIt was silly to think about the tent in the same moment, but he could not help himselfHe was convinced that it would remain standing; the stakes were three feet deep, and the soil was the clay type that could take extreme stressesIf he had only known a storm like this was coming, he could have built a shelter that would last through anything, and he could lie underneath it, completely dry without the slightest worryGoldstein was annoyed at RidgesHe should have told him what kind of storms there were; he was a veteran and he should have been preparedAlready Goldstein was planning the next tent he would bu (Comment on this)

That his judgment submitted to all his own peculiar and bitter share of this family affliction, but that it was too keenly felt to be a subject of the slightest communication This must be his stateHe yielded, but it was with agonies which did not admit of speechLong, long would it be ere Miss Crawford’s name passed his lips again, or she could hope for a renewal of such confidential intercourse as had beenThey reached Mansfield on Thursday, and it was not 397 Jane Austen till Sunday evening that Edmund began to talk to her on the subject Sitting with her on Sunday evening—a wet Sunday evening— the very time of all others when, if a friend is at hand, the heart must be opened, and everything told; no one else in the room, except his mother, who, after hearing an affecting sermon, had cried herself to sleep, it was impossible not to speak; and so, with the usual beginnings, hardly to be traced as to what came first, and the usual declaration that if she would listen to him for a few minutes, he should be very brief, and certainly never tax her kindness in the same way again; she need not fear a repetition; it would be a subject prohibited entirely: he entered upon the luxury of relating circumstances and sensations of the first interest to himself, to one of whose affectionate sympathy he was quite convinced How Fanny listened, with what curiosity and concern, what pain and what delight, how the agitation of his voice was watched, and how carefully her own eyes were fixed on any object but himself, may be imaginedThe opening was alarmingHe had seen Miss CrawfordHe had been invited to see herHe had received a note from Lady Stornaway to beg him to call; and regarding it as what was meant to be the last, last interview of friendship, and investing her with all the feelings of shame and wretchedness which Crawford’s sister ought to have known, he had gone to her in such a state of mind, so softened, so devoted, as made it for a few moments impossible to Fanny’s fears that it should be the lastBut as he proceeded in his story, these fears were overShe had met him, he said, with a serious—certainly a serious—even an agitated air; but before he had been able to speak one intelligible sentence, she had introduced the subject in a manner which he owned had shocked him“‘I heard you were in town,’ said she; ‘I wanted to see youLet us talk over this sad businessWhat can equal the folly of our two relations?’ I could not answer, but I believe my looks spoke Sometimes how quick to feel! With a graver look and voice she then added, ‘I do not mean to defend Henry at your sister’s expense So she began, but how she went on, Fanny, is not fit, is hardly fit to be repeated to youI cannot recall all her w (Comment on this)

3:15 am	@@@@@ Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE @@@@@ Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 100 11 “Don’t touch anything,” ordered Bourne as Flannagan and Rachel Swayne haltingly preceded him into the general’s photograph-lined studyAt the sight of the old soldier’s corpse arched back in the chair behind the desk, the ugly gun still in his outstretched hand, and the horror beyond left by the blowing away of the back of his skull, the wife convulsed, falling to her knees as if she might vomitant grabbed her arm, holding her off the floor, his eyes dazed, fixed on the mutilated remains of General Norman Swayne “Crazy son of a bitch,” whispered Flannagan, his voice strained and barely audibleThen standing motionless, the muscles of his jaw pulsating, he roared“You insane fuckin’ son of a bitch! What did you do it for—why? What do we do now?” “You call the police, Sergeant,” answered Jason “What?” yelled the aide, spinning aroundSwayne, lurching to her feet“We can’t do that!” “I don’t think you’ve got a choiceYou may have driven him to kill himself but you didn’t kill him “What the hell are you talking about?” asked Flannagan gruffly “Better a simple if messy domestic tragedy than a far wider investigation, wouldn’t you say? I gather it’s no secret that you two have an arrangement that’s—well, no secret “He didn’t give a shit about our, ‘arrangement,’ and that was no secret, either “He encouraged us at every opportunity,” added Rachel Swayne, hesitantly smoothing her skirt, oddly, swiftly regaining her composureShe spoke to Bourne but her eyes strayed to her lover“He consistently threw us together, often for days at a timeDo we have to stay in here? My God, I was married to that man for twenty-six years! I’m sure you can understand this is horrible for me!” “We have things to discuss,” said Bourne “Not in here, if you pleaseThe living room; it’s across the hallSwayne, suddenly under control, walked out of the study; the general’s aide glanced over at the blooddrenched corpse, grimaced, and followed her“Stay in the hallway where I can see you and don’t move!” he shouted, crossing to the desk, his eyes darting from one object to another, taking in the last items Norman Swayne saw before placing the automatic in his mouthOn the right side of the wide green blotter was a Pentagon memorandum pad, Swayne’s rank and name printed below the insignia of the United States ArmyNext to the pad, to the left of the blotter’s leather border, was a gold ballpoint pen, its sharp silver point protruding, as if recently used, the writer forgetting to twist it back into its recessBourne leaned over the desk within inches of the dead body, the acrid smell of the exploded shell and burnt flesh still pungent, and studied the memo (Comment on this)
