0744 hours. How are yesterday's blogged thoughts relevant
to Pouch-9?
Good question, boy. - Post. - Amorella
Mid-morning.
You had a catnap and the completed your daily exercise program. You want to know
if it would be offensive to think of the slice of thighbone as physics. If it
would have been I would not have suggested the concept. Imaginary science you
can deal with an imaginary G---D you cannot. - Amorella
You
set such a tight draw on a fine string of dark humor. Me, an agnostic can't
deal with an imaginary G---D but I can deal with imaginary
(stretched-in-concept) science. I cannot argue this even in its seeming
contradiction.
I
was thinking on an analogy (poetic if you will) of this thighbone slice with a
Homo sapiens or marsupial humanoids thighbone.
If such a thighbone is set as living,
existentially, within itself (cell-like), I foresee no problem within your
personal cultural framework of heartansoulanmind which is where this counts
most as far as your book writing is concerned. It is up to you as to how you
add your 'human' authenticity to it in the Merlyn books. Some time ago you
wrote a lengthy poem on fractals. Find it and include in today's postings. This
will better show where these concepts are coming from. They are not out of the
blue, boy. Post. - Amorella
1019 hours. I am still internalizing this, Amorella.
1128 hours. I rummaged through lots of full folders the
desk drawer in the basement. It holds what I consider to be important early
material in the 1980's. I found a draft of "Fractals". The original
title was "Dot Angel" though I cannot remember why. No date, but it
was written in the mid-nineties. I was teaching AP and my students were
collaborating in 'math essays' their AP Physics class at the time. We had
watched a film out of New York about fractals; both classes discussed the film
(about an hour long, mostly demonstration.
Leave space. You don't have to complete this
in one sitting. - Amorella
I sent this out for publication, only one place, in Delhi (India),
said they were interested but in the end they did not publish.

1217
hours. This didn't take so long. I had forgotten what it was about. "Dot
Angel" is a good title.
Carol is talking about going to lunch and
then to a movie. Post. Later, dude. - Amorella
2111
hours. We saw 'Zero Dark Thirty' after our usual lunch at Penn Station. We
thought it was okay, perhaps a 7 out of 10. I didn't like all the torture
scenes and I don't think Carol did either. What was the point? Supposedly the
authorities never received anything good from all of it anyway.
Earlier you wanted to know why it was
important to gain the larger sense of ultra-reality at this point in time. -
Amorella
I did. Actually I forgot about it but remembered earlier
this evening. I cannot imagine that the marsupial humanoids didn't already know
this theory. What good does it do them at this juncture?
They
can slide on air as if it were ice, and that is what is going to happen when
the Cessna's motor accidently starts while Blake and company are underneith
Ship while in blackanot. Go to Google Earth. - Amorella
The
Cessna finds a quick landing spot on Township Highway 314 just east of the runway.
Woods on both sides of road. Blackenot on. The end of the runway can be seen in
the upper left corner. (Google Earth)
What
is amazing to me is that there actually is a township road that is straight and
where they force land there are no houses.
See, boy, you don't need to actually fly but
we have a photo for authenticity. - Amorella
No one will ever read this little fact, Amorella.
The point is, if someone from Ashtabula
County does sheorhe will know there is some truth to it. Looks like you've
actually been there. The Amish farm may be fiction but I like the juxtaposition
of a future and past tense in the same place and I know you do too. - Amorella
2241
hours. I have completed Pouch-9. I don't know if it is a near final draft
though.
It will due for now. Add and post. -

Pouch-9 ©2013, rho
Blake
sat in the pilot's seat with his sister Pyl as co-pilot. Justin was in his
usual position, the third seat back. He liked it because he could better see
out both sides equally. The Cessna 210 was flying east above Lake Erie shores at
about 150 miles per hour at 16,500 feet, thus they were enjoying the visual
pleasantries of a crispy clear blue sky above a layer of thickening rain clouds
below.
Such
is the beauty of flying a plane such as the Silver Eagle in full sunlight on an
otherwise cheerless, dreary day in early
March; this is Blake's thought suddenly interrupted within the time of 'dreary and March', the Rolls-Royce M250
turboprop failed.
First
things first. Blake and Pyl both automatically checked the fuel, ignition and
air to the engine. Improper combustion. All three tighten their seat belts and
doors. Pyl attempted to work the radio but it remained just as immediately,
dead. 'Slow descent', thought Blake well conditioned for a variety of outcomes,
the first being a precautionary landing. He checked his headings but Pyl was
already ahead of him.
Pyl
said the following as a definite statement. "Ashtabula County should be
below us shortly."
"We
are in a good controlled glide," replied Blake and with humor, "How
you doing back there, Justin?"
"I'm
fine. You know what you are doing. I'm all right."
"Good."
He paused, "If we can't get it started we will land on a airstrip, road or
a farmer's field. We have time to think this out."
"Fuel
pump?" questioned Pyl.
"No,
it shouldn't be. I think it is vapor lock but I am not sure why. She was going
along pretty as you please."
"As
a kid we had vapor lock once in a car in Death Valley. We survived."
"You
visited in July, right?" asked Blake as he continued checking the gauges,
rate of descent . . .
"I
don't know what is wrong with the radio, Blake. We have electric except for the
radio."
"Cloud
ceiling is about three thousand feet. We have plenty of room, plenty of
time." Here we go through the top layer.
"Ashtabula
County Airport, HZY in Jefferson; 924 feet above sea level," said Pyl.
"But we cannot contact them."
Blake
makes adjustments and says, "They can spot us visually."
***
Ship
sets itself thirty feet above the Cessna with blackenot narrow-banded to
camouflage the Silver Eagle as it drops below the clouds. The airspace between
Ship and the plane appears to thicken into a fractallized mirror. Blake has no
problem seeing the town of Ashtabula below as he heads southeast towards I-90
and the Ashtabula County Airport beyond. Ship remains parallel from above then
as the Cessna begins to glide in for a safe landing. Blake puts the wheels in
down and lock as he readjusts the flaps up.
In
the cabin Pyl asks, "Why don't they see us?"
Dumbfounded
Blake replied, "I don't know. I don't understand. And no damn radio."
He attempted to restart the engine one more time hoping they would at least
hear the plane. It started. Flaps down for better control. The fuel appears to
have condensed, he thought. Then the plane began to slide in the air like it
was on a sheet of ice. He was going to overshoot the runway so he saw Rt. 193
just beyond, and slightly to the south he saw a deserted township road set
straight east. No traffic. Blake said calmly, "I'll land on the
road."
Pyl
stated, "I agree. Do it."
"Go
for it, Blakie. Looks good. No one in sight." said Justin with some
tension.
"Land
where the road cuts through the woods. Nothing but fields before and after but
up ahead are houses," commented Pyl feeling the Cessna was under control
even though the engine again stopped suddenly. "You are on the mark."
The
wheels touched the rough tar and chip pavement. "Down." said Blake
braking the wheels just as if he had landed at the airport about a mile behind
them. When the three climbed out no one bothered to look up as their focus was
on the engine.
An
older man walked up from near the tail section and said, "Can I be of any
assistance?"
He
was surprised that no one responded to his voice. He wanted to take a step
closer but froze with sudden apprehension. Behind him another voice, "Pyl.
Blake and Justin. How are you? What has happened? Why the forced landing?"
The
three turned at once. They could hardly believe their eyes. Here stood Mykkie
Carlson and an unidentified older man. No car nearby and here she is, thought
the three in unison.
