    Kind of the same thing that was said after the Nitrates disappeared in to the water & didn’t resurface! (Of course, Jimmy wasn’t in an airtight car!)

    The mention of “if he buried it” lends support to my idea that the gold might not have ever been buried. It’s possible that the Blackhearts contacted someone in Jimmy’s organization and diverted the gold before it was ever buried.

    As someone was saying yesterday, the FBI is going to have to be involved in this investigation of gold that was in federal custody on behalf of another country. The whole gold investigation is far from over.

    Wonder if there’s an HTML code to bracket a phrase with Musical Notes

    Random thought.

    As for proof of whether Jimmy Choo Shooz stole the gold in the first place, we do know that the train car was diverted and Fontane reported to Jimmy that everything was in order. The only way the gold could not have been stolen at all is if the Blackhearts (assuming they have it) moved the gold off the train before the diversion. However, I don’t think they knew about it early enough to do something like that.

    Tracy feared the fan was hitThe dye was set the fuse was litI’m sure that Pat will tell me whyHe showed such anger in his eyesHe’s wasting time on foolish gabOf Gold and hills and Jimmys new nabeBut trap me into telling allHe’s nuts to think my guard will fallAnd yet despite my efforts supremeThe day will come we’ll say goodbye to the dreamThe fault is all his he should come clean and fess upHe has this disease he must take every cupHe can no longer hid his whole world will go wackWhen everyone learns Juniors a kleptomaniac!

    Regarding Mysta Chimera, I just saw this new YouTube video, called Could You Transfer Your Consciousness To Another Body?. You might be able to transfer your thoughts and memories at a given time, but it wouldn’t stay “you” for very long, because there are constantly new experiences.

    When the geology stabilizes at Lake Pratchett, send a team of police scuba-divers down to see what’s there below the watery surface—maybe they will be able to retrieve Jimmy’s body; maybe they can find some or all of the gold; maybe they’ll salvage some of Ted’s house, or even his boat….Meanwhile, how about checking out the mysterious disappearance of Tess’s partner, Johnny Adonis, from this strip!

    Oh GREAT…just what we need… yet ANOHER storyline that goes unresolved…pushing it off on the Feds and Treasury Dept takes it conveniently out of Tracy’s hands.. once again letting someone else solve his cases for him

    Syd and all the other “Tracy History Buffs” out there, im in need of a lil timeline help

    trying to figure out WHEN I began reading Tracy in the NY Daily News, but the stories I remember are more than a bit out of order I think…so if y’all can help me out a bit it’d be appreciated.

    Now… the LAST story clearly remember reading was I believe the Torcher storyline which included I THINK the Willie Washington sub-story where he would steal womens purses while roller skating, take their cash and toss the purses in the mailbox.

    I remember the “return of mumbles” when he killed Dr Carver (brilliant name for a plastic surgeon by the way lol…we need a new shifty plastic surgeon tho… name him IKE HUTTER lol), I remember of course Moon Maid getting killed and the entire Tracy Contract story (including Bony and Claudine and Joe Tracy’s birth and Quiver Trembly sneaking the gun on the plane)…I remember Astral Plane being a green haired phony psychic… I remember the debut of Angeltop and Perfume Plenty getting stuck at the top of a ferris wheel… I remember B.U. Tiffil showing up and the intros of Johnny Adonis and Lee Ebony and Lizz being a blonde…I remember Haf-and-Haf kidnapping Lizz and tying her up under a table with a beaker of acid hanging on the edge, I remember Zelda getting bitten by the garden snake… I remember Art Dekko and Sue Reel…I remember Haf-and-Haf getting plastic surgery to repair his face…

    I THINK that’s about as far back as I can remember…and I believe that the Perfume Plenty story is the oldest one listed… I don’t remember the WHOLE thing, I just remember her being stuck up there with the mayor or someone, and it was cold out (winter time?) and he died…of frostbite? Not too sure.

    Any help?

    Fritz Ann seems to be the main contact of the MCU with the FBI these days. Sam will be overjoyed to see her again (not!).

    Hey Tracy, how about you go to Jimmy’s place and see if you can recover that long-stolen library book about the 1924 robbery, which can also be used as evidence of the planning of the crime. (And hey – if the book has been missing for 10 years, Jimmy really did some long-range planning, considering that there might never be another gold shipment like that!)

    But will she see Sam as less of a man, now that he doesn’t smoke ?

    I don’t think she cares. :) I’m not quite sure what the attraction is, but I don’t think it’s the smoking.

    For decades, more than a few radio and television programs were sponsored by the major Tobacco Companies; “Jack Benny”/Lucky Strike, “My Friend Irma”/Cools, “The Flintstones”/Winston Cigarettes, etc.

    One of the reasons the late Stan Freberg’s radio show didn’t last was reportedly because he wouldn’t allow sponsorship from ’em – Way ahead of his time there.

    A bonus certainly sounded niceBut Blaze remembered her moms adviseNever depend on gifts from menThey’ll use you it’s not if but whenMr Bigg might seem impressedBut sooner or later just like the restHe’ll pass her by for some worthless guyAnd all her work will be tossed asideShe won’t allow herself to to restUntil they know that she’s the bestOne day it’ll be his grave she’ll digAnd she’ll be called the fearsome Ms. Bigg!

    .

    Hope no one minds, I decided to try and create a plausible background story for what has motivated Blaze. Plus mr.Kleenex annoys me for some reason. Must be the boogers! LOL! ZZZZZZZZzzzzz….
