    PHANTOM: Is dad suddenly going to intervene? If you are attacking at night, why do you have to wear a fox skin?

    REX MORGAN: Are we starting a new arc with the end of the museum plot?

    MARK TRAIL: I’m going to call my boss and see if I can cover this story. I don’t know if he will let me rent a boat so I don’t know how I will get there.

    MARY WORTH: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

    Rex Morgan – Yes. It looks like a new arc is starting. But I don’t think we have heard the last of Dolly Pierpont.Judge Parker – The cop still hasn’t seen the bottle in the back seat yet.Mary Worth – Private Idaho? What does that mean?Mark Trail – I wonder if he can remember that URL address?

    MARK TRAIL: Talk about Verbiage! As I seem to recall, Honey & Darling had been collecting some firewood just before they ran into the fire ants. Perhaps some of the firewood was from the wrecked boat, the Elizabeth D. ??MARY WORTH: @ david – Speaking metaphorically, the phrase My own private Idaho means to be wrapped up in one’s own very small world or narrow sphere of interest..PHANTOM: @ woodworker – I do hope that Kit’s dad is still around and about to intervene! Will we be left hanging over the weekend?!

    MW, cont.: @ david – the metaphor has something to do with a pop song back in the 80’s, and an Idaho potato. :-)

    MW “My Own Private Idaho” was a movie. To quote IMDb:“In this loose adaptation of Shakespeare’s “Henry IV,” Mike Waters (River Phoenix) is a gay hustler afflicted with narcolepsy. Scott Favor (Keanu Reeves) is the rebellious son of a mayor. Together, the two travel from Portland, Oregon to Idaho and finally to the coast of Italy in a quest to find Mike’s estranged mother. Along the way they turn tricks for money and drugs, eventually attracting the attention of a wealthy benefactor and sexual deviant."

    Mark Trail – They brought the firewood from their yacht; my guess is the fire ants were in that wood.Rex Morgan It’s more like back to an old on-going arc. At least, this one is medical related.
