I really enjoyed this, although I'm not exactly sure what happened to his car. Was there the sound of a train and lots of wind, or what. Otherwise I think it is excellent. Can't think of a thing you could improve.

A pleasant surprise of a great rating and your appreciation for my effort some eight years ago. The car with passengers just disappeared into the sky. Welcome to the website, and I guess I should check more often. Thank you and good luck with your writing.

Thank you but you must have me confused with someone else. I wasn't on this site until last week.
Comment from Paradox Tremors
Wow, love the story. Different and Unusual. Very well thought out and written. Mr. Murphy was fortune to run into and have Ms. Earhart as his sponsor. I would love to read more with Earhart and Murphy teaming up in other stories.

I found this really interesting and well-written. Great speech and use of dialogue. Your writing ability is really extravagant, and I think you should write more. Thanks for this great read!

Thank you for your kind comments...and thank you for reading something that has been lying around for a while. Working on two things right now in an attempt to get more writing produced. Good luck in your own efforts.

Excellent story. Very imaginative. I saw what was happening with the tornado fairly early on but you built it up well and it was very effective. Such a unique idea and your writing was very well done.

Thank you for the kind words and stars. Glad you enjoyed the story. I apologize if I did not send a reply earlier...I thought I had. Good luck in your own wring.
Comment from judy.gordon
This is a very extraordinary and creative way to use a garbage bag to bring forth people from the past that vanished. This could potentially develop into a novel in which you explore this idea further.

Comment from Aiona
LOL! This is so bizarre, but I loved reading it. One typo: "How hold was, or is, Miss Dare ?" I think you meant "How old was, or is, Miss Dare?" Right?

I found this fantasy story quite intriguing with many historical references. Making Amelia the main historical charector was well thought out. I like how you introduced her into the story.
Congrats on winning the contest howard11.

Comment from Econ Teacher
I read this story when you first submitted. I liked it then and I liked it now. I was too busy to review it then. Now that it's won the contest, I just wanted to stop by and say, "Congratulations!"

Comment from Joannforsberg
I so enjoyed reading this piece. I can see why you won the trash bag contest. Such creativity that keeps the reader seeking more. Love the whole: "Oh yea. Gruff individual with ugly scar across throat. Complained about dry cement in his eyes and ears. For I am a Michigan girl and he is buried in cement somewhere here by Detroit. Truly a story talked about here for years.
Well, well, well done. One of my all-time favorite stories here at fan story.
P.S. I would give a six, but I am already out for the week. Been reviewing for hours now.
Blessings, JO

Thank you for liking my work. Double thank you for noting the Hoffa line. I thought it was cute. Good luck in your own writing.
Comment from Adri7enne
Great story! I love the way it's understated. No big melodramatic hand wringing. Just, plain good story telling with very interesting characters and good story line. You had me wanting to look up all the names you mentioned. Some of them are real, but one part reminds me of a story line on Dexter - the oil drum bit.
A well earned win, howard11. Fascinating stuff. Six worthy. I'm sure you understand if I save it for someone who might need encouragement. LOL! Your win is all the encouragement you need with this one. Congrats!!!

Thank you for your enthusiasm and the rating. By the way, they are all real except Harold himself. Agatha Christie did disappear for about a week once. Good luck in your own writing.
