Extra Special Bonus Clues (from Fort Worth): For the Hidden Journey: Heroes refuse unearned privilege. For the Puzzle: To solve the puzzle, you don't need the full cover of the book, only the words. (And only two of them.)
The Story: Alex just doesn't like arrogant, inconsiderate, obnoxious loudmouths. Did I tell you how we came up with our nickname for BMW's? Big Moronic Wimps? We're at a post office in Fort Worth. Alex has some post cards he's mailing home, you know the really great ones with the corny jokes like the jackalope, furry trout, and giant grasshoppers, that kind of hokey stuff, and there's a red zone in front of the curbside mail boxes. We want to pull up next to the curb and dump the cards, but there's a red BMW parked there. Parked, grip; no one's around. It's not like the guy is just a little bit in the red zone; he's taking up the whole curb. "Who is this guy," I say, "King Tut? Nobody else has any letters to mail? He thinks his Beemer gets a free ride in red zones? We ought to jink his snotty little Kraut box."
