AN OLD GUY, DRIVING A '39 "CHEVY' eased into the #1 parking

spot, usually reserved for THEBIGKOOK, The beach's mood was

somber, the team was taking this tragedy seriously. Bill "Wild Ass"

Wiley, eased himself onto the "primitive dirt road". On the rear

seat lay an American Airlines Animal Travel Cage housing, "Monk",
'
his 63 year old Spider Monkey imported from Botswana,

Union of South Africa, during the uprising of '58. "I'm here

for the "flyover", said "Wild Ass". "Okay, with us, but were

not sure BIGKOOK'S gone." said Messenger, "No Positive ID from the

County Morgue, "Wild Ass" said, "No problemo, me and "Monk" need

the flight time." "Wild Ass" was the master of remote controlled

aircraft, In flight "Monk" took over, albeit "Wild Ass" was at

the remote control. No matter, "Monk" did feel he was

Captain. TEAM/BIGKOOK assembled, watching "Wild Ass"

and "Monk" ready the aircraft for the :flyover". "Monk",

adorned in his tiny aviator's helmet, miniature parachute,

and goggles, was inserted into the cockpit, placed in the

center of the runway ("the primitive dirt road"), given a

boost by Sea Cucumber, and headed for the "wild blue yonder",

"Wild Ass" taking him to 250'. At the same time at the head

of the road, stirring a funnel of dust, comes Ranger Dairywimple

and Special Dispatcher, NeoN, acting as Dairywimple's

liaison on the Mark Reynolds case. The State vehicle swerves

to a stop right in front of Building #4, Toilet #6. Deputy

NeoN alights from the car demanding, "What's going on here?"

"flyover for THEBIGKOOK," said Messenger. "No you don't,"

said deputy NeoN, "we have no proof he's deceased."

Ranger Said, "We can't find the cougar that bit off his

head, killing him instantly, get that plane out of the sky--NOW!

We must find the Big Cat, slice open his belly and find

Reynold's head, in other words he's a "Missing Person

Report just that." "And no more," added Deputy NeoN.

"So just be careful. Stay here until we return with the

Coroner's report, savvy.'
