Some men should learn that where the Cartwrights are concerned, a sure-fire plan isn’t anywhere near as sure-fired plan as they believe.And all he wanted was to take advantage of an opportunity for a respit. I wonder what punishment will be in store for this Cartwright when Pa gets him home…*

I’d have loved to have seen this as an episode…Adam at his dead-pan comedic best!Author’s Response:Thank you, Dodo! I thought I’d go nuts before completing a story for the Outline Challenge, so thank goodness Bert and Melvin strolled onto the computer screen. Gotta love a snarky Adam.*

Date: 16 Aug 2010 12:08 am Title: A Sure-Fire Plan Loved it!! Humor, pathos, sartorial elegance! What more could a fan ask for?Author’s Response:Thank you, Cheaux! I’m so pleased to know this story had a little bit of everything and that you enjoyed it.
The best-laid plans …. This was awesome. Very clever and very funny.
Oh this was great! That sure-fire plan just backfired for everyone. Hopefully next time everyone will be more careful.
I enjoyed this humorous story!
This story was loads of fun! I loved every part of it! Adam played those guys so well just to get a rest. XD What a fun plot! Well done, Patina!
Love how Adam convinces the one kidnapper that he really is Joe Cartwright.
Ha! I know I’ve read this before somewhere, but it was funny again! The whole thing made me laugh — I can just see Adam lounging in the corner resting while those two try to figure out just what is going on …
Thanks for writing!
I’ve just reread a Hat full of guilt, and Mouth full of regret, love them both and now just finished this one, it so funny Bert and Melvin weren’t very good at kidnapping, and Adam so an opportunity to have a rest. Like the other two I enjoy it. I never usually get the time to read so much, but am laid up with a bad knee thanks for a great story
Lol very funny !
Thank you, Joesgal. Glad you enjoyed it.
It was a sure-fire plan, even Adam’s, well… sort of. He should have remembered the saying about when you first practice to deceive… Poor Joe, his value decreased! Love it!
Thank you, BWF. Adam was thisclose to the stars aligning in his favor. Glad to know you enjoyed this story.
