even though they felt it wasn't exciting and they liked the adventure in Latin America

Yes, that's definitely exiting. Too much so. For me, anyway.

I'm still not through with this 'writing'

This is obviously a news account but, by golly ... it reads like a 1930's American investigative reporter movie ....

I think I remember one with Cary Grant and another with Jimmy Stewart .... both true investigative stories put down on film.


I return me now to my favorite movie channel

“The sun had already set behind the mountains that surround Venezuela’s capital, leaving behind a black sky.”

What literary masterpiece!

He got that right.

If Joe-6-Pack in Peoria got knifed in a home invasion by two illegals he’d rate three lines in the local fishwrap.

You should not be where you don’t belong. Being the gringo foreigner when times get rough makes you a target or a scapegoat, regardless of how nice everyone is the rest of the time.

Good story. I’m guessing that John Pate somehow avoided the draft and military service. Had he served, he might have developed the necessary radar to sense danger, be prepared and sidestep the killers with the knives.
