Transcribed from the Steve and Mac in the Morning Show, KRAW, February 12, 2010

Steve:

So for our listeners who haven’t tuned in to the news yet, let me be the first to share this gem, making headlines in both Yannatok and in Seattle this morning.

Mac:

Beep, bah-beep-beep-beep. Beep, bah-beep-beep-beep. Breaking news. Dateline, Yannatok.

Steve:

Enough. So everyone already knows about the plane stolen from North County Airport and then brought down ever so gently in the middle of the damn forest over on this side of the bridge. Well, the intrepid reporters at the Tide have confirmed the rumors running wild all over this island that indeed the same culprit—

Mac:

The Red Baron.

Steve:

Hold that thought, because you’ve already been outdone in the nickname department.

Mac:

The Jesse James of the sky.

Steve:

This Jesse James of the not-so-friendly skies filched another aircraft from Tomkins and managed to smash it to bits on some oceanfront property and—

Mac:

Wait for it.

Steve:

Walked away again! Survived the crash and skedaddled fast enough that he’s still at large. So who is this master pilot, you’re asking? Who is this renegade flier, this Houdini hijacker with nine lives? This master of escape, who can crash two thousand pounds of metal without being seen by a single person? Who has the sheriff running through the woods in the dark, begging for somebody, anybody to come forward with a tip that will save his ass come the November election?

Mac:

Wait for it!

Steve:

Eighteen-year-old Robert Jackson Kelley.

Mac:

Who?

Steve:

Exactly. A kid. A kid without any type of flight training. And apparently he’s been leaving a sugary parting gift at the scene of his crimes, and so, the oh-so-clever Seattle Times has dubbed him the—

Mac:

Here it is!

Steve:

The Lollipop Kid.

Mac and Steve (singing):

We represent the Lollipop Kid!

Steve:

You know, you look just like one of those Munchkins. On the Tide’s website, the story’s blowing up with comments. It’s got more hits than anything I’ve ever seen posted up there. And we’ve found a Facebook page that is apparently Robert Jackson Kelley’s—

Mac:

You gotta say all three names. You just have to.

Steve:

You can just see it on a wanted poster, can’t you?

Mac:

Well, we’re gonna pay the bills with a quick commercial break and then we’d love to hear from you. Do you know where the Lollipop Kid lurks this morning?
