Oinkers T. Pig is missing. He left in April to go visit his friend Bubbles in Iowa and has not returned yet.
Utilizing the detective skills of Spotty and Batty we discovered the phone number for Bubbles's house and decided to call and see if they had seen Oinkers. Not only had they seen him, he was still there!
Oinkers reported to me that he and "The-Short-One" were going to be stuck in Iowa until sometime in July. He is not happy about it. He also said that all three cats were there and were driving him crazy.
So, it appears Oinkers will be home next month and we can all put our minds to rest and enjoy our cat-free days.

Summer is Coming Summer is on it's way. Soon school will be out and fun time will begin. So far everyone playing in the cow pond has behaved, and we can all hope this trend will last through our vacation. A new plastic pool has also been purchased for those who wish to stay out of the cow pond, and Baseball tournaments are slated to be held all summer long. Of course, there will are many more things to look forward to, but have a great summer! The Stars Win Last month two baseball games were held, and "The Stars" emerged victorious both games. In the first game "The Stars" beat "The Pigs" 7 to 3. It was a close game, but Crabby made the final run that won them the game. In the second game "The Stars" beat "The Bears" 6 to 4. Assistant Coach Doggie had this to say, "I hope our real coach comes back soon so we can start winning." More baseball games are slated for next month.

New Computer Even though oinkers is not here to enjoy it, we have gotten a new computer. The new computer has Windows 98 on it instead of 95, and is reportedly much, much faster. I, personally, enjoyed working on this new computer very much while I was typing up this edition of the paper. Let's hope we all have as enjoyable a time. Editorial: Secretary is Vital Part of Detective Agency By Pigelty-Wigelty I, Pigelty-Wigelty, am a vital part of the local detective agency. I do too answer phones and make appointments, and without me who would manage their mystery schedule? If everyone feels I am not doing my fair share of work, then perhaps I need to be paid more. After all I can barely afford to buy food to eat and I have to heat my little piggy house with candles. In closing, i would like to say that I am working as hard as I can, considering I am allowed no breaks, and no lunch, and a weak and dizzy piggy brain can only do so much.
