ZERO SUM: SEARCHING THE BEANS IN THE HUDSON RIVER

The Statue of Liberty
The vision that Liberty offers to the migrant who arrives to the USA is a great metaphor about what was the meaning of this big country of countries some decades ago.

The rescue team continued its searching while Theo Kojak was looking at the sky and enjoying the vision of another spectacular amazing grace.

Amazing Grace? How sweet the sound. He thought in John Newton writing this beautiful anthem to thank God after suffering a sinking. He hoped the missing people had the same luck that Newton had. The loud voices of the members of the diving team alerted him. Another person had been found alive. Kojak was proud of himself. He was a great poker player and he understood life like a big and interesting poker game. He was still astonished with recent news of Eddie "Fast" Clark the guitarist of Motörhead who wrote the unforgettable song Ace of Spades.

Well, time to update the report.

January, 14. 07:18. Theo Kojak Report. Statue Cruises Sinking. NYC.

Last night, the rescue team continued the rescue tasks and they found alive four more people: a middle-aged dark skin woman with long brown hair; an adult white woman with long black hair with  equestrian clothes, a young woman with short black hair and light blue trousers and a young black haired man not shaved and with a red and yellow jumper.

The day has been a rush for Theo Kojak. In fact, he was always a heater. The rescue teams had found more survivors. He continued writing his report.

07:25 - Adult woman. White. Brown/red hair. Yellow coat and green shoes.

07:31 - Adult woman. white. Red haired. Long hair. Blue jeans and red t-shirt with a drawing of a pickup.

07:47 - Adult man. White. Black short hair. Yellow and black jersey (like a bee) and blue jeans.

08:10 - Adult man. White. Black short hair. Green belt and trousers and grey vest with a Saurus inscription. White helmet and black boots.

08:22 - Young woman. White. Long brown hair. Veterinary clothes.

08:55 - Old woman. White. Old-fashioned clothes. 

09:17 - Young woman. White. Long black hair. Croupier clothes.

Theo Kojak took his phone to call to the CSI NY Department. He needed people more specialist than him to continue the investigation. What happened in that boat? Why did it sink? CSI team was going to find the answers to this mystery. Meanwhile, his task continued. The first survivor told they were fifteen people and they have only found fourteen. He hoped s/he was a great shark.

The survivors were going to be moved to the Mount Sinai Hospital to be attended first, and interrogated later. They didn't know it but they were lucky people because not a lot of people survive to the force of the Hudson River flow. They played their cards and they seemed or great players or fortunate people. All the members of the family except one. Who?


 T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear
and Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear
the hour I first believed.
