Uff dah, i'm dying. the Rat bastard was so amused by the Wolf and Mitch show that he decided against jumping me. So, he's still out there. I just wish i'd outed him. I didn't know for sure, but everybody was saying he was in rothschild and i'm sure i could have outed him, probably just by calling his name. But no, we have to go do something about putting the grandfather in wolf so he can do the wolfen greeting. And that went SO well. And then wolf can't hardly walk, and he has to go down and DO it, or else. not even sure what the else is...i don't have the first idea. i guess we'd be run out...possibly wolf would be attacked and killed, but who knows. I sure don't. So here i am. and we still haven't killed the bastard. I tried to use psychich skills i don't have to let kendall know he was right in front of her, but it didnt' work. Sid was on the left, and i'm sure he saw him, he just didn't have any proof. Sometimes i'm so stupid.


oh yeah, when did i become grand central station for bosses. I... Fellow from Chicago wandered through a couple times. I didn't know him well, and all that means is that he is so high up that i don't know him. Good god. And a girl named May Ling, who i think is part of Chiang's family. I was shocked to meet a girl boss, but hey, she was definitely a boss. And I ain't. So i tried to introduce her around. She was looking for something other than a jet engine. Lisa Sabatini is here, but i suspect SHE was invited. Wolf is here, and there's the new guy, Mitch. I even think i'm missing somebody.

The jet engine did finally turn up. Mitch had it, i guess. I got to stop dealing with it. The foundation is going to drag race for it. Sounds fun, i guess.

The eagle came and went, and there was a big pulp society meeting or something. Whatever. I like the eagle. He's either lost, or never had that boyscout thing going on. and Joe always said he was the best pilot ever. He loved Bill Barnes' adventures, but the eagle was the best pilot. He never came to chicago or wisconsin, though.

There were a lot of Mitch's people at Mitzis. One guy, Ricky, wanted to chat me up. He was not a bad looking kid, and he looked a little familiar, so ,hey, research, right. I let him. It speaks to how paranoid i am, that i really wanted to see waht was inside the Ford, and talk engine (can you imagine, a fellow i don't have to pay to talk engine with me, i can't eve get Wheels to talk engine with me half the time, but i think that's just because Wheels don't talk much. Especially since the incident with the canteen, but that's old news)
about halfway through talking to Ricky, i realize that i'm not going to get spit, or maybe that that's about all I'd get from him if i continued, and that's when i realized who i was talking to. He was somebody's kid brother. I think they were calling him "droopy" but i cant' remember for good. He'd had something, but the late voice change really hurt him in high school. I guess he's making up for lost time. Because he had the charm on strong, and, like i said. I'll spend hours poking at somebody's engine if they'll talk about superchargers. I did want to get a look at his supercharger. And, yeah, i'm sure you're thinking how linnea was, how everybody was. But hey, i worked hard to get and keep mine, i have a switch under the dash so Linnea doens't accidentally kick it, and i love to see how other people install theirs.

But you know what, he's still a good kid. I mentioned kurten and he offered to bring a tire iron to the show. I took him up on it. He told me during one of the times i was racing through the winnebago club that he had it and all i had time to do was give him the thumbs up.

The calendar girl was giving me crap for stepping out. Mostly i ignored her. Ricky told me what her problem is, and so, i figure steer clear of mitch and she'll chill out, but god i wanted to deck her. But some arguments a girl can't lose. And losing this one, would...not be good. Like IF i decide to STEP OUT on Daniel I would let you know calendar girl. Oh well, i don't have time. I still have to figure out what Wolf is supposed to do, and i'm going nuts on that. And i still have to find Kurten. And i still have to...oh yeah, figure out how to fix the genovese-lansky problem. But oh yeah..she ticked me off powerful lot.

That was nice though. I had all the information on that. I had given my notes to kendall so she could finish my work on the stuff, but even without it, i had all the information. I even had a lot of the ideas. We talked all dinner and i guess we came up with something. Basically Genovese (or rather Lisa's people) will take care of their capella problem, and we will take care of our siegel problem, and that should put everybody in a good place to start over again. I am supposed to send mr. the rabbi to wolf i think so wolf can brief him and send him to lansky. I'm worried about that. most folks don't want to be briefed by wolf, it's just, way easier than being briefed by me. I dunno. i have to find out who's handling this and get them to talk to him maybe. Chicago, i guess, is going to stay out of it. officially. Whether they will unofficially, who knows. it's all going down in their back yard, i'm not sure they're too pleased with that.

So yeah. there i was. at dinner. big table in an empty room. And there's people there as just don't make sense. I suspect Mrs Jones of knowing my kind of people and the grandfather was fond of her, but all that's out there is Gant and Sabatini's guys. And i don't know who her folks are. So i just don't know how much to trust her. But Why is Doc P working for Sabatini. And who on EARTH is the dame in the gray? I guess she's Frasier's gal. She sure didn't say much. I thought she was local though, i'm pretty sure he didn't show UP with her. Yeah well, it's taken me less time to land a fellow, that's for sure. A Chicago-ish guy named Tandini or something is there, and he's got somebody with him i think. And there's a doctor that works for genovese. Other than lisa, nobody there had boss written on em. We get through dinner, and the doc follows me over to get my coat. And he says he was in my house when they killed my paw. So i'm steaming mad. He works it out that the "guy behind it" is standing behind me, so i finish what i'm doing and i stalk off to a corner and steam there for a second. He's told me the mob done in my paw. And I watched them do it, sara thinks she hid it from me, but i saw it. I saw them all. And yeah, one of them was this Tandini guy now i think about it, but god it was a hundred years ago. Why can't he let the dead lie. So all i can get out, without reaching out to throttle this guy, is that he damn well better tell me something i don't know damn soon. Well, he can't. So i turn on my heel and i go back to Wolf. And i don't look at the doc, and i don't talk to the doc, and actually, i find out later that he was letting some gunshot wound fester, and that's when i realize that he's trying to make up for what he done. Well, they cought him with the festering wound. probaby doc P. And they broke his hand for him. And he rund off.

All i can do is tell Wolf. Wolf says that in another time, he'd take care of Tandini for me. I ain't sure i told him who told me, i might of. But anyway, now is a bad time. Besides. I want to take care of Tandini by myself. And i want, for some reason i don't quite get, to do it legalwise. I ain't sure that two eyewitnesses could sink him, but i want to try. It will take care of the doctor's problem i guess, and if the doc and sara can sink him, then it's a bit harder, but if they can't, then i can finish the job either way. I know which cops are on the payroll, which janitors aren't noticed. If he gets locked up, then i got friends on the inside will take care of it for a couple cases of cigarettes, and if he don't, then i got friends on the outside will do it. And him and Siegel can share their cold hellish death.

oh,also, we done a couple things that jus don't make sense. Archie done a big spell with lots of demanding and such, calling on angels and what not to do what he says. He wanted to try to reach the vikings. Things went all wonky pretty quick, because angels don't exactly talk straight. She done tole us all she could She said some of them was dead, but that they hadn't moved on. I think. I dunno, i have Got to learn shorthand, because sara had to memorize it. I hope she makes it through, till someone can type it out for her. At least until i learn shorthand. At the same time all the things joseph was trying to do got through. And then I guess archie took the time to ask for help against parsons, because i swear to god, he did his whole benediction and closing whatever when the phone rang. It was wolf, he was coming back from chicago, wanted to see if i was done. But i wasn't. so i got all worried. I'd been pulling out my hair quietly, you know. But anyway, that's when tolliver said that all these co-win-sidents was the prayers being answered.

So i finally get up the guts to ask for help from these guys. And we play with runes for like, an hour. Oh, did i mention that there was aliens in my living room? yeah. Linney was entertaining them. We was up playing with angels. We finally got the rune thing figured out. but i just don't have enough to tell what the rest of it is. And i'm pretty frantic. Kendall was pretty good this time, she took it all off me and said she'd finish. I know she done it, because after teh show, wolf comes and asks me why he should do it. I got no answer for that. Because mitch will kill us? No idea. but he's kind of upset and i'm pretty confused. Finally they tell me what he's got to do and i guess i understand why he's upset. He has to dance with the grandfather. He sure didn't like it the first time. But kendall says that that's what she figured out. I don't know, i think she went up and asked, it was the only thing to think of and i was afeared to do it because i thought maybe he would be mad that even though he asked her, she didn't figure it out for herself. I guess it was that he had to answer challenges of the guy whose turf he was on.

While we was up there with him, we misdialed and reached somebody else entirely. iwas pretty shook up by that. And it almost killed him. But i'm glad i found these guys, even if it was by accident, because i was starting to worry how we could stop Loki & Parsons, AND the masters and interlopers at the same time.

We think we successfully wired for help, maybe. But my world went totally to hell right about then. I just didn't realise it. I still don't think i have it entirely, but suddenly it doesn't fit in the box i really wanted it to fit in. I guess I should of though.

Oh, and it's like, 11 and still no kurten. And we go down to the Mitch and Wolf show. It was pretty cool, actually. My runes were right. The smoke was right, and then i'm not so sure, like i said, i think it's the challenges. We won the first one. Kendall drank Ricky under the table. They're going to have a car race or soemthing tomorrow. Of course at that point, two of my vowed bodyguards were, well, out of the picture. So sid starts throwing me into a room. And Wolf seems to agree. I don't know, nobody asked me, but damn. i feel like the lalander diamond. I got to talk to the eagle for a few minutes. I was cleaning out my bag and handed him a photo. oh. hmm, i guess i should give a pair to wolf...before somebody else does.

Well anyway, i'm going nuts. And Sid seems to think it's all clear at midnight. which is a load of crap. But i'm ready to pass out i'm so worried. They bring me a note. and i just want to scream. so i sort-of do. He left a note saying he enjoyed the mitch and wolf show so much that he's going to come back later. And I knowed he bin coming since we figured out what he was and i remembered what he said. And it ain't over. And i just want to sock keeler for the diamond maneuver.

So, i don't even ask linney, although i do tell Sara, and i ask wolf to stay with me. Last thing i need is to go upstairs and find the bastard going through my underwear drawer. He wasn't. but i couldn't pass out. Wolf did. He was pretty damn tired.

Oh, i also...did other stuff, but don't feel like sittingon this post until i remember, this will be edited later.
