Schwotzer, Famous Monsters of Filmland I finished this book over 5 days ago, yet her dead animal story, "Skeletons in the Swimmin' Hole," is still with me. Now that's a good storyteller! --Nicole Henke, Bless Their Hearts Mom Monorail Clear Casey's brother had died while clutching a Magic Kingdom ticket. Casey kept the ticket under a refrigerator magnet so he'd see it every night before he went to his job as a monorail pilot; Saturday, though, he notices it's missing. At work, he locks up the monorail fleet for the evening and starts hurrying to his car, only to stop when he hears the whoosh of a train on a nearby beam. "I know I secured them," he says on a call to his supervisor. "Should I go back and investigate? Someone could be joyriding." "No one told you?" his boss replied. "We have special hours for guests who held non-expiring tickets at death."
