LOST: A SPONGE

"Bob" the sponge was" lost" or that is, not "found" several days ago while spelunking in the "Cave of Lost Dreams." He was mis-placed while he and I, Pip, were trying to locate the missing baby dragon, recently hatched in the Investigation lab of the BSP (Biosphere Special Police.) (FYI, That is the same little pest who was retrieved from the scene of a UFO crash in Montrose Harbor last month!)

As I said, we were in hot pursuit of said baby dragon and this "pursuit" led us down the Deep Tunnel into the spectacular, mega bucks "Cave."

Unfortunately (WHY is there always an "unfortunately" in these endless stories??) we FOUND said "baby dragon" who, apparently, didn't care to be pursued down the "Cave" or ANYWHERE ELSE (!) so he tried to a.) swallow us whole b.)set us on fire with his fiery breath and c.) chase us into the gaping maw of the Hideous Face with the disgusting quivering lips.

As luck would have it, "I, Pip" was able to escape the tiny fiend and flee back UP the Deep Tunnel but poor "Bob" was unable to make the final leap and tumbled back down (!!!!!)

BIG REWARD - really big - for anyone who finds the little dude but the only thing is that you have to go DOWN the "Cave" to get him!

Good luck on that one!" NOTE - REALLY HUGE BIG REWARD!!
