When Det. Manatee read the headline "Manatees

When Det. Manatee read the headline "Manatees could lose their endangered species status" in the morning edition of the Times, he went ballistic.

He visited ballistics expert Walrus Barbus.. "Here's a π caliber bullet to remind you the most endangered manatee while Mr. Amnesiac isn't checked into a crowbar hotel is yours tru

ly." He tuned out... All he heard was π, which led him to think of pie. Mixed berry pie with whipped cream on top. Ballistics expert Walrus Barbus asked, "Are you salivating?"

Ballistic expert Walrus Barbus then stroked his beard which was shaped like a cery skinny cat.

His thoughts were explosive (he was a ballistics expert, how else would they be?) " it looks like a bomb went off in here!" he growled at his son, Walrus Barbus Jr.. A hot second

later the local volcano erupted. Walrus Barbus Sr. was fit to be tied. "How dare nature make a bigger bang than I!" he screamed as he and his son Jr. ran down the hill and into the

to finish it once & for all. Then I promise we'll all go to Dairy Queen for ice cream!" "Okey-dokey!" shouted Jr., readying himself for nuclear war. Walrus Barbus Sr. scuttled up

with an atomic bomb in hand. Junior was curious and wanted to touch it. "NO, honey!" His mother cried. She swatted his hand away as Walrus Barbus Sr prepared to fire the weaponry.

The atomic bomb exploded right into the face of the family, killing them and thousand more people in the blink of an eye, more so later. The Gremlin closes his book. "Whatthefuck?"
