Notes - F and F,9/10,11 / concepts / Halloween



         Early afternoon. Carol is reheating pork and sauerkraut and adding peas and carrots and a baked potato to the menu. This morning you worked through two more chapters. - Amorella


** **
In Chapter Nine of Fire and Fury it's February and the focus is on the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). The conservative philosophy jumping up from the raging river to catch flies. Fish with the scales of Bannon, Walsh and Priebus amongst the old school. Who's who and how much power they now weld with President Trump. Bannon speaks, then Trump speaks, both fish in their own deeper and angrier waters not CPAC's. They got away with it. The chapter holds you on what was political important at the moment.

** **

Fire and Fury's Chapter Ten. Once the reader begins thinking in tones of 1933 in Germany, another school of fish must be tangled with for power in the WH. Bannon turns at Kushner who wants to promote peace in the Middle East. Brannon thinks it will be a disaster. Trump, well, Trump is still Trump. So it goes, (with the tip of my old black beret to KV).

     1249 hours. It is rather enjoyable writing these chapter summaries. Helps me to better enjoy Michael Wolff's book. 


     You had a delicious lunch/dinner. Before this though you took it upon yourself to share the added Fire and Fury chapter review/summaries by mentioning to your FB friends that you added the chapters to your blog for their reading if they liked. - Amorella

     1340 hours. I did because some readers suggested they would continue reading. I would never deny anyone reading anything as long as they are free and responsible adults. I do feel more comfortable taking it off FB though. I don't believe it is a place for reviews. They don't mix with the blog though and I underlined them so they could be more easily found on the page.

     Why don't they mix with the blog, boy? It is a writing blog, is it not? - Amorella

     1345 hours. It is, but this is different than working on updating novels and thought concepts.

     How so? - Amorella
'
     1346 hours. I don't normally do book reviews even unorthodox ones like the Fire and Fury review is.

     You and Carol both napped for a time, her upstairs with Jadah and you in the chair downstairs with Spooky at your side. After, it was time to get out of the house and what a better reason could there be but to stop at Graeter's. Once home you worked on  the chapter eleven review. - Amorella

** **

     Chapter Eleven begins with Jeff Sessions denying he met any Russians when he hadn't been asked the specific question. Trump doesn't understand the subtle connections between the Russians and the Trump campaign. He didn't understand why Sessions recused himself from the Russian investigation. Trump didn't see how it made any difference whether anyone had talked to the Russians or not. Ignorance is bliss rushes to mind rather than innocence though. Who knows? This short chapter plows through and concludes with Trump positive that Obama had had his phones tapped. I like the way the chapters move about in terms of moving forward. It's hard to believe all this isn't just made up. Such is irony.  (1758)

     1806 hours. Darkness has pretty much settled in. The naked trees with a bit of diminished skylight behind give this Winter evening a Halloween effect. It fits in well with finishing chapter eleven.
