Ditto!!!!!! I think it was Cath who started the sni thing, so I guess you'll have to ask her!!! Please come back yhm, and long posts ARE welcome. (just to let you know!!!)

Jen

What's going on?????

Geez yhm, just how long are you going to keep us from knowing fully what's going on here?!

I feel like I'm creeping up on this, slowly, over several days and weeks!! I am now ready to pounce!!!

Joy

I noticed that email was sent to both Tara and Sue. Does that mean he's speaking to her?

maybe he's just discussing the case to the both of them so it's one less time for repeating the same info over and over again.

I got until 31 Jul, no? "

But you wonderful ladies are cracking me up with your speculations. Bring them on!

Effective firewalls will do that for you. Given that the amount has hit the thousands over time, he’s been making a tidy profit from siphoning off the multiple clients.

I wouldn’t call it a ‘pocket’ per se, more like a phantom account. I’m looking for it as we speak … ummm … email.

No worries mate, as Bobby would say, about the extra work. It’s not like I have a social life now that Stanley’s gone incommunicado again.

And some people said I was a tease with My Best Friend's Wedding story?!
Great job, yhm! Look forward to more!

Hmmm....now we know something's up with Jack and Sue, Tara's somewhere else, Bobby is mentioned, so where's Luce, Myles, and D?

I give up, yhm, I'm not guessing anymore, you're too good in all that mystery!

Agreed! We're in awe of your talents in weaving mysteries unfathomable to the human mind..

Wait just a minute ... if these mysteries are unfathomable to the human mind, what kind of mind am I supposed to have to come up with it in the first place?

On second thoughts, do I want to know?

Will post soon.

How about 'superhuman'?

Probably not Yhm, but you have that special talent to keep us guessing and trying to work it out......something tells me that you enjoy that!

You guys are all nuts - yhm, you have the brain of...well, someone like Tara. Now that's scary!

kav

You're just smarter than us, Yhm!! You know how to keep us coming back for more!!!

Joy

can we have some more please???

If I weren't so lazy this afternoon I would try to guess what's going on. Probably we'll have to wait till the e-mail, adressed: Endings and Beginings, right?
Knowing Yhm (better said, her writing) I say all the flattery, no matter how righteous, won't help. She's going to keep her well-known reputation intact.

First, me thinks that you have a superdooper mind that lu-urves to tease us!!!

Second, Me likes that fact you said 'will post soon' Very very good news!!

Kav, that IS scary!!!! Yhm, please post soon, I'm going crazy!!!!

Jen


On second thoughts, I already AM crazy!!!!!

Um, yhm, could you and your superhuman Tara-like mind post more soon please? 31 July?? Could we maybe at least get our answers by 25 July because if I have to leave for vacation before you clue us in on what's going on...

Woohoo, Barbara! Bingo! Errr ... what reputation would that be? Should I worry?

To all the other ladies, this brain ain't no better than any of yours, so if it's all the same to you, I'll muddle along with the rest of you to figure out what the heck is going on ...

I thought firewalls protect your data, not allow a bug to hijack it and then end up protecting the bug?

I’m sorry about Stanley. I know it’s tough when a man can’t be reached … especially when you’ve realised you’ve made a terrible mistake by dithering and pushing him away and now miss him badly.

Hmmmmm

I am puzzled but muddling along. I wonder how Jack might respond. It sounds like Sue is trying to apologize to him for pushing him away.

Wonder why she pushed him away.....and more importantly, will he take her back?

I'm going to guess Sue was trying to drop a hint there!

BTW, JF - you have my word you'll get answers by 25 Jul. How's that?

Ok - Jack's turn!

Em

I think you're right, JF!

Great job, yhm! Look forward to more!

So Tara and Stanely are having problems in their relationship....I have a feeling that there are going to be a lot of other twists to come!

Sue was definitely hinting there!

Subject: The Fugitive

I’ve changed the subject heading … too many re:s make me want to yodel.

Oh, don’t worry about me and Stanley; when he’s done with whatever it is he’s doing, he’ll be back <said in thick Austrian accent … giggles>.

Whoa … Sue? What’s with the italics? What mistake? Why did you dither? What were you dithering over? Who did you push away? Who do you miss? How badly? Is he someone I know? Is it Jack? Was the message meant for Jack? That’s it, isn’t it … you two are … aren't you? ... what are you not telling me?! Darn … I HATE it when I don’t have answers! Aaarrrrgghh!

About the firewalls. You know what they say: everybody knows the science, it’s what you do with it that counts … hmmm, who said that, I wonder … very familiar … and so true …

So both Sue and Jack have got this message..... And don't worry Tara, we're all in the same boat, none of us know what's going on either!

Yhm, so we'll get our answer by the 25th......therefore we need some brain food, I feel like I'm running out here, no more brain capacity to think.

BTW - You and a few others have persuded me to do a challenge story so, I've written a couple of chapters, maybe if I get a few more written and beta'd before long, I'll try and do a short story...what do ya think?

Dum-de-dum-dum-duum!

JF will get answers by the 25th ...

and the rest of us?? I loved Tara's e-mail, I could hear her getting frustrated in my head...oh, wait...maybe I was hearing myself??

Both Jack and Sue got this email from Tara. That is interesting.

That's not funny hon!

Ditto. yhm, you are SUCH A TEASE!!!!!!! We need a tease smilie!!! Longer post this time though, maybe a 'snipp' Great writing though yhm!!!!

Jen

I hope you meant JF and the others will get the answers by the 25th. What has JF offered you that the others haven't?

With Yhm, are we going to know the answers when we see them???

Okay, I do believe everyone is right and that message from Sue was for Jack!!! Okay, Jack, my boy, let's see your answer!!!

Joy

Woohoo! I'd say that's great. Answers by 25 Jul - will that be ALL of the answers though?!

Woohoo! I'd say that's great. And don't worry, I promise to keep my lips sealed and not tell the others the answers!

Barbara, what makes you think I bribed her?!

So apparently, Tara doesn't know about whatever's going on between Jack and Sue...does anyone?

Subject: re: The Fugitive

Tara! That email contained nothing relevant to the case!

Are you able to trace the fugitive and which bank employee could be behind this? Or employees? Can we at least eliminate the upper management?

Great posts, yhm!

LOL!! I see that Jack's trying real hard to get Tara and Sue focused on the case!

Nothing relevant to the case maybe but certainly still relevant to you Jack!

the 25th is a long time away -- and why the 25th? Why not the 15th?
kav

So true. But what's he doing about it? Or Sue, for that matter. Those two ...

This is not a post but I just wanted to check something with you ladies. I was reading some of the amazing stories and somebody said plot-less fluff can be a good thing (I'm paraphrasing). So my question is, should I therefore continue this fluff-less plot-less thing? I assure you I could end it by Sunday and it'll still work.

I feel so bad subjecting you wonderfully patient ladies to these emails when there is such good fluff and stuff out there!

I think you should continue! I really like this...though I wish the emails were longer...
