The phone rang and I didn't even know what it was. I knew I drooled on my pillow, though. The phone rang again and I answered it. Normally I wouldn't answer the phone at three o'clock in the morning, but something told me this call was important. "Mr. Bolding?" Said the voice.

"Who wants to know?" I have been on both ends of prank phone calls enough times to be cautious.

"This is Tommy Thigpen. From the Aquarium. Mr. Burns said I should call you. Did I wake you?"

"No, of course not." Like I was ashamed to be sleeping at three o'clock in the morning. "What is it Tommy?"

"The shark is, I don't know, throwing up, or something."

"What do you mean? Is it still alive?"

"Yeah, it's still alive but it's sick, or something. I checked it every fifteen minutes like Mr. Burns told me to. It's not my fault!"

"I know Tommy. Just calm down and tell me what you saw."

"I turned on the lights and the shark was throwing up. There was blood and everything."

"What do you mean 'throwing up?'"

"The shark was puking."

"I see." I had no idea what he was talking about. I never heard of a shark vomiting before. "Tommy, what did you see come out of the shark? What did the shark throw up?"

"Blood mostly. There were also some little white things, like rocks. They sank. There was also floating things in the blood but the shark and the other fish ate most of it."

"Okay, Tommy. You did great. Now I'm going to be over there in a couple of minutes. Could you keep the lights on and watch the shark until I get there?"

"Sure, Mr. Bolding. I'll watch the shark."

"Oh, Tommy. Before you watch the shark could you call Mr. Burns and tell him to meet me at the Aquarium?"

"Mr. Burns is upstairs in his office. He said he was going to sleep there tonight."

"Okay. Could you call him, Tommy and tell him to watch the shark?"

"Sure, Mr. Bolding. I'll tell him."

"Thanks a lot Tommy. You did a great job. Keep up the good work. Goodbye."

I hung up the phone and got dressed. On the five-minute drive, I tried to understand what Tommy had told me. The shark was vomiting. But what was it vomiting? Blood. I'll take Tommy's word for it on that. Things that the other fish ate. Undigested flesh. Little white things that sank. Bone fragments. I should have asked him if he saw a human arm go flying out. It was probably best I didn't because I think that would have scared the crap out of poor Tommy. I'd be able to see for myself soon enough.

I pulled into the huge empty parking lot. The near empty parking lot, I should say. My advice to put a fence and gate around the lot to keep unwanted after hours visitors out went unheeded. I had to maneuver around empty beer cans and bottles. We'd have to address the fence situation if we were going to be the center of worldwide attention for the rest of the summer.
