A police man walked into police headquarters.
" I have some bad news people." He paused dramatically, for effect. When he thought he'd paused long and artistically enough he continued.
" Monk was killed." People gasped, people gaped, people cried, people dropped their doughnuts.
~later~
The two policemen stood in the badly lit, dank office.
" We'll never know who the killer was." The fat one said.
" No, if only Monk was here, he could solve the case." answered the other one.
But Monk was killed.
" Oh the irony!" They both broke down sobbing.
