Another thing i was wondering was why Huck was messing with Jim when he found him again? I don't think it was a really nice thing of him to do, because it made Jim sound like he was loosing his mind. On the other hand, it was kind of funny and Huck got a little chuckle out of it until Jim told Huck what was what.
I liked these chapters though because they were entertaining and amusing. A take away from these chapters would be don't lie to one of your friends just to get a laugh when you're on the run, because that friend is bound to get pretty angry when they find out.
