I try and work as much in as I can.

The entire first book was re-written and modified after 9-11. I was literally ready to roll with Book One just before September and had to go back and work that into the plot line throughout.

Remember, the book is written in the future, about 4-5 years from todays happenings. Writing it as a series allows me to work subtle and not so subtle references in.

For example, in Chapter TWo of Book Two, prior to this excerpt, the President uses the fact that Israeli Prime Minister Sharon implemented and initiative to arm 60,000 more Israelis with Conceal Carry permits in an effort to fight the terror of 2001-2002, hoping that someone armed would be near a terror attack when it occurred to interdict it. That actually just happened a few weeks ago and it is already working. It made a good reference to these actions later by our own President when faced with abject, on-going terror attacks on American soil. He speaks eloquently about it when informing the cabinet of his decisions.

Regards.

Amazing how people weave such stories! I'm a Garrison Keillor fan, and how he keeps coming up with 30 minute monologues I'll never understand. I loved your first book, Jeff, and am so glad you are a FReeper! We are lucky to have you.

I am thankful that FreeRepublic is here. It is an ingenious and inspired patriotic creation of a great man, Jim Robinson. For me personally it has made a tremendous difference in helping with very specific issues like Klamath Falls, Jarbidge and others.

Hello my friend. Here's the second excerpt from Volume II in my series on the coming third world war.

Any chance for the famous JH2 "mega-ping"?

Thanks for the excerpt. I like the direction this is moving, and it's a pretty unique theme among the books and movies of recent years. Re #35, say it enough and they'll start to believe it - we are still a great nation of good people. With a little faith in God, ourselves, and our fellow man, we can live up to higher expectations.

Other than asking Him to protect my Family, I ask Him to show me the Truth so I can share the Truth.

I know it leads to Him.

And God is our only chance at surviving the lie of globalism, which is just a funny way to spell slavery......

Peace

You know how the saying goes ...

God, guts and guns ...

I believe true "guts" or courage and valor are wrapped up in being moral and virtuous and then doing what is right ... no matter the odds.

I hope these books portray these direct principles while telling a good story.

An absolute Amen to that. I have seen that very thing all over this nation.

I hope this series portrays that too ... and portrays what that great nation of good people is capable of when motivated while couching it all in an interesting story.

May we all find the motivation to do right, to be vigilant and to never give up ... and then may we always retain it.

Senator Feinstone .. LOL !

There used to be a poster here with the nom de plume which incorporated "feinswine".

My notes will be on the way to you later today, Jeff.

The other Senator's name was a little more subtle ... I guess too subtle.

Crater = Boxer?

Look forward to those comments.

You're welcome bro.

Tell Bernie and the Colonel and everyone there hello for me. I really believe Bernie and the boys at the dump, and the Colonel too would really enjoy Dragon's Fury - Breath of Fire and the whole series. Give 'em a heads up for me.

Regards and BUMP back.

Thank you. As I stated on AuntB's thread at Post 37, I really just wanted to help folks and know of people (at least from my own perspective) who are more deserving of suvh an honor. I dedicate it to them.

Aside from that, whatever difference has been made was the result of a LOT of people who got involved when they heard the call ... wherever, whenever and however they could. I just happened to be close enough to show up personally for some friends.

Again, thanks for the kind words and hope you can enjoy these books. Volume II will be out towards the end of May.

Best Fregards.
