Chapter 21

Ha. Mary is allergic to horses! I can't believe she has been there all this time and did not realize she had allergies. I'm sure their were other horses around besides Isabel. Nonetheless, i guess it was good timing that they were now ending their adventure. But they just said they returned Isabel to the blacksmith. So did they sell her back? Or give her away for free? They weren't really clear about where the horse went.

This part of the book reminded me of the movie Ace Ventura when Ace said "I'm in psychoville and Finkle is the Mayor." I thought that because that is probably exactly how i would of felt. I would have been in such a hurry to get out of there. In fact, i probably would of left the first week. Sure the Millers and the other people were nice...but they were just weird. Not to mention the fact that Eric and Mary are both frauds. Sometimes you just have to accept that two worlds are different. Those people can live life the way they do, and i'll live life the way i do.

Did anyone catch the end of the chapter where he talks about how a little finesse and luck will lead to the right results of his experiment? So what does that mean you ask? By finesse, Eric is basically saying that he is going to continue being a fraud and alter whatever notes he has to make it look like he has gone through some type of never before done experiment. Maybe he wants to be published in a journal, maybe he wants the nobel prize, who knows? But i do know that the dude sucks at life and probably wears jean shorts. If i ever met him...i would have a few words for him.

I agree, I dont know how she didnt know she was allergic to horses. In her whole lifetime, is this the only times she has been around a horse? Just life I guess. Changed the whole story of their lives though.

hahaah once again that was a very funny note. They made their decision based on Mary being alergic to horses. The entire time they were there she never had any contact with a horse?
