The boss duke always use’t to be out fight nightand that’s when I <strong>first</strong> got hook’t on Phantom the Wonder Dog. He’sElliott’s hero. He’s who he wants to be. The real Phantom has theserocket skates with little wings on ’em and he beats up bad peopleand smiles a lot. I likes Phantom too. He’s ace.

Captain Cotdeath. That sorta pook. WhenI’m done read’n ’em so hard the ink’s about three microns thinner,I hands ’em to Elliott.The Roosevelt Zoological Dome is big, way old and in the sunlightit shines like a rainbow bent into the shape of a big hollow eye. It’salsa home for me and the mutts right now. Takes about a week togo all the way around. Well, OK, so maybe not a whole week. Maybejust a couple of hours, but it’s a long way all the same. Stands betweenOakcrest and City Park. Just off the Carrolton Approach.
