Can you give us details of the desired punishment?

Shane may have hired someone to do that, Rapaire. I'd look into it if I were you.

Was it one of the "naughty bits" that got broken off the statue?

Someone broke the statue in the front of the Library. Snapped a part right off.

Death will not come quickly enough for the person who did it should I find them.

Technically, we could transport that entire party thread over here and bulk up MOM real fast this afternoon. But that's a pretty good stand-alone souvenir for Amos from while he was away.

SoCal is as SoCal does, you know. Besides, Amos is rich or he couldn't afford to live in San Diego. He won't begrudge his friends a good time.

That would spoil all the fun. Let Amos push the button. He's the one who went away and missed it all.

Oh, Wait--Don Firth installed a button that clears things up nicely. We'll have someone push that when we see Amos turn into the driveway.

Who wouldn't want to be there? Anyone who is mildly alarmed by what Amos' face will look like when he pulls up into his driveway whenever it is he's getting back home. I've forgotten. How long is this trip?

Tell Chongo to head on down to the Tavern at Amos. There's a party shaping up there that looks to be right up his alley.

It'll take us longer than usual to hit the next number because someone is busy blowing the backyard to smithereens over at Amos' house. It is a bit of a distraction.

Amos's role in that sense is superfluous, isn't it?

It's cloudy in Belize, highs in the mid 80's and a chance of thunderstorms. If he had stayed home he would have sun, highs in the upper 60's and low humidity.

Let's fire up the gas grill on his patio and grill ourselves some nice, thick, swordfish steaks. I found one of his credit cards in the bedroom. Stilly, check and see if there is a fresh lime in the refrigerator.

We thought of that. In fact, I think that's why we haven't heard from Rapaire all day--consider the travel time from Idaho to San Diego. And I don't know if any of the boys from the Legion hovel are going with him. They would slow travel considerably.

Belize? He went to Belize? Why? I thought he lived in paradise? He certainly keeps posting that he does and that we in the far north are twittiots for not moving in next door to him.

But, he goes to Belize? Pretty Belizey of him. Maybe we should crash at his place while he is away.

Yes. Also in Belize, belize it or not. Amos will come back with Yellow Fever, typhoid, typhus, malaria, crotch rot, athlete's foot, tennis elbow, Boobonic Plague, black syph, yaws, elephantisias, psorriasis, halitosis, heartburn, eczema, dandruff, fallen arches, Dengue Fever, Jakob-Crutchfield Disease, anemia, schistosomiosis, black lung, SARS, Heiney flu, hydrophobia, infantile paralysis, beri-beri, and cracked fingernails.

You just mark my words!

Yes, in the book the slippers are silver. And they drop off when she flies from Oz through space back to Kansas that first time. I don't remember how she got back and forth for the next trip (the wizard turned up in Kansas, as I recall, and he may have had the wherewithal). After she moved Aunt Em and Uncle Henry to Oz they didn't go back to Kansas (at least, not in the 4 or 5 books I read to the kids). There are actually quite a few Oz books, but the style is such that you have to give yourself a break every couple of books (the puns, for one thing, are punishing, so to speak).

...not to mention my imagination....

So...I am not green with envy thinking about Amos and his lovely significant other lounging around in the cabana with an after dinner brandy, about to take a stroll on the beach in the soft spring air.

Hopefully the wind has died and they are being chewed upon by mesquitos.
